To Charles L. Webster
9 September 1882 • Elmira, N.Y. (MS: NPV, UCCL 02268)
Sept 9/82.
Dear Charley—

I want you to be General Agent for my New Book for the large district of which New York is the centre. I can make it pay us both. Go to studying up the methods & mysteries of General-Agency right away—no great many deal of time left. We will see if we can’t improve on the Prince & Pauper’s luck there. All well & send love, to you both.

Ys Truly
S L Clemens.
