Description
Mark Twain/Samuel Langhorne Clemens (American 1835?1910) handwritten and signed letter to Mr. Seaman, Louis Livingston Seaman (b.1851 - d.1932) dated January 18, "I thank you so much, but I shall doubtless be on the other side of the world at that time with my family. Shall be, if our plans do not fail us. I hope you will have a good time. Very sincerely yours, SL. Clemens", on Riverdale on the Hudson mourning stationary, framed.
