P. S.--I gave the P.O. Department a blast in the papers about sending  
misdirected letters of mine back to the writers for reshipment, and  
got a blast in return, through a New York daily, from the New York  
postmaster. But I notice that misdirected letters find me, now, without  
any unnecessary fooling around.  
The new house in Hartford was now ready to be occupied, and in a  
letter to Howells, written a little more than a fortnight after the  
foregoing, we find them located in "part" of it. But what seems  
more interesting is that paragraph of the letter which speaks of  
close friendly relations still existing with the Warners, in that it  
refutes a report current at this time that there was a break between  
Clemens and Warner over the rights in the Sellers play. There was,  
in fact, no such rupture. Warner, realizing that he had no hand in  
the character of Sellers, and no share in the work of dramatization,  
generously yielded all claim to any part of the returns.
