I am glad to know you like the "Prince and the Pauper" so well and I  
believe with you that the dream is good evidence of that liking. I think  
I may say, with your sister that I like myself best when I am serious.  
Sincerely yours,  
S. L. CLEMENS.  
Through February, and most of March, letters and reports from him  
were about the same. He had begun to plan for his return, and  
concerning amusements at Stormfield for the entertainment of the  
neighbors, and for the benefit of the library which he had founded  
soon after his arrival in Redding. In these letters he seldom  
mentioned the angina pains that had tortured him earlier. But once,  
when he sent a small photograph of himself, it seemed to us that his  
face had become thin and that he had suffered. Certainly his next  
letter was not reassuring.
