To Charles L. Webster with a letter to Louis C. Tiffany
18? September 1881 • Elmira, N.Y. (MS: NPV, UCCL 02039 and UCCL 02416)
Dear Charley—

Find Louis C. Tiffany's present address (any big architect in your neighborhood can furnish it), & stand by to mail the enclosed letter to him when I telegraph you to mail it.

This is to cover accidents. If the weather is very hot, we shan't leave here Tuesday.

Yrs
S. L. C.
enclosure:
Louis C. Tiffany, Esq.
Dear Sir:

Where can I see you for a moment on business, in New York?

An answer will reach me Wednesday morning at the Gilsey House, where I shall arrive Tuesday night——& will much oblige

Yrs Very Truly
S. L. Clemens
("Mark Twain.")
