To Henry C. Robinson
15 or 16 September 1884 • Elmira, N.Y. (MS facsimile: www.ebay.com, UCCL 11234)

P.S. I spoke too soon, Brer Robinson. Mrs. Clemens has been sick & won’t be strong enough to travel for a week or ten days, yet. So I’ll have to appoint another & later billiard-meeting.

Yrs sincerely
S L Clemens

Elmira, Monday 16th
