The present volume consists of Mark Twain’s last autobiographical dictations, and the manuscripts that he labeled as dictations or included in his Autobiography. They are arranged chronologically, completing the series begun in Volume 1 (which ended with the dictation of 30 March 1906) and continued in Volume 2 (which ended with the dictation of 28 February 1907). This volume begins with the dictation of 1 March 1907 and ends with “Closing Words of My Autobiography,” a moving tribute to Jean Clemens written shortly after her death on 24 December 1909. The history of Mark Twain’s work on his autobiography, from the preliminary manuscripts and dictations he produced between 1870 and 1905 through the dictation series that began in early 1906, is given in the Introduction to Volume 1, and the editorial rationale for choosing between variants and for correcting errors is likewise given in that volume, in the Note on the Text (pp. 1–58, 669–79). Both are also available in the electronic edition published at Mark Twain Project Online ( MTPO ). The editorial practices described there have been applied without change to the texts in this third and final volume.
With few exceptions, these typescripts and manuscripts have been in the Mark Twain Papers since their creation. There is little reason to doubt that their author intended all of them to be published eventually, as signaled by his including them in the archive of literary manuscripts that he entrusted to Albert Bigelow Paine. It is that intention to publish on which the editors have relied in constructing the authorially intended text from the relevant documents.
The case is rather different for the so-called “Ashcroft-Lyon Manuscript,” which is published here for the first time. Written in the form of a letter to William Dean Howells between May and September 1909 (but never sent), it is by Clemens’s own account his latest experiment in autobiography. He could easily have made it part of the Autobiography—but he did not.
Apart from its use as a “weapon” (see p. 326), Clemens had in mind another purpose, which required at least that the manuscript be preserved, though not necessarily published. In his address to the “Unborn Reader” he says, “In your day, a hundred years hence, this Manuscript will have a distinct value” as authentic documentation of “an intimate inside view of our domestic life of to-day not to be found in naked & comprehensive detail outside of its pages.” Then he grows even more explicit: “This original Manuscript will be locked up & put away, & no copy of it made. Your eye, after mine, will be the first to see it.” He did not have the manuscript typed, even though he had secretarial help readily available, and instead of putting it into Paine’s and Clara’s hands along with his other literary manuscripts, he entrusted it to his attorney, Charles T. Lark. It is hard to think of this document as anything but distinctly private.
Publishing it now, just a little more than one hundred years after Clemens stopped adding to it, the editors’ goal is to create a typographical transcription that is a readable and reliable substitute for the original manuscript, just as it was when the author ordered it “locked up & put away.” We therefore accord it the same treatment we give to other private documents, such as letters and notebooks—a treatment that is not designed to satisfy authorial expectations for publication, but rather the modern reader’s legitimate expectations for accuracy and completeness. Since 1988, the editors have had at their disposal a system, called “plain text,” designed to transcribe manuscripts “as fully and precisely as is compatible with a highly inclusive critical text—not a literal, or all-inclusive one, but a typographical transcription that is optimally legible and, at the same time, maximally faithful to the text that Clemens himself transmitted” (“Guide to Editorial Practice,” L6, 698). Although this system was originally designed for publishing manuscript letters, it serves just as well for transcribing the intensely private Ashcroft-Lyon manuscript. Transcription into plain text is not “diplomatic” or “literal” or “all-inclusive” because it does not undertake, among other things, to reproduce the original lineation or pagination of the manuscript, except where lineation has meaning (in addresses and signatures for letters, for example). It does, however, undertake to change or omit as little as possible. It therefore includes errors and abbreviations in the original holographic or typewritten document, shows its cancellations and insertions, and represents as many quirks of the holograph as possible, so long as the editorial rendering does not itself become more difficult to read than the original. It is a critical text, above all, because the editors are charged with deciding which classes of detail to include (and when to make exceptions), and their choices are often constrained by whether those details can be intelligibly transcribed. The editorial symbols and conventions used in the text are defined at pp. 327–28. All textual details of the original deemed not susceptible to intelligible transcription are reported in the Textual Commentary at MTPO . For a detailed account of the transcription policy see “Guide to Editorial Practice” in Mark Twain’s Letters, Volume 6.
