      To Bret Harte, in San Francisco:    
                                   WESTMINSTER HOTEL, May 1, 1867.
      DEAR BRET,—I take my pen in hand to inform you that I am well and      hope these few lines will find you enjoying the same God's blessing.    
      The book is out, and is handsome. It is full of damnable errors of grammar      and deadly inconsistencies of spelling in the Frog sketch because I was      away and did not read the proofs; but be a friend and say nothing about      these things. When my hurry is over, I will send you an autograph copy to      pisen the children with.    
      I am to lecture in Cooper Institute next Monday night. Pray for me.    
      We sail for the Holy Land June 8. Try to write me (to this hotel,) and it      will be forwarded to Paris, where we remain 10 or 15 days.    
      Regards and best wishes to Mrs. Bret and the family.    
                              Truly Yr Friend                                                  MARK.




      To Mrs. Jane Clemens and family, in St. Louis:    
                                   WESTMINSTER HOTEL, May 1, 1867.
      DEAR FOLKS,—Don't expect me to write for a while. My hands are full      of business on account of my lecture for the 6th inst., and everything      looks shady, at least, if not dark. I have got a good agent—but now      after we have hired Cooper Institute and gone to an expense in one way or      another of $500, it comes out that I have got to play against Speaker      Colfax at Irving Hall, Rist
