To James B. Pond
23 July 1884 • Elmira, N.Y. (MS, in pencil: NN-BGC, UCCL 08909)
Wednesday.
My Dear Pond—

Oh, dang it, I’m head over heels in hard work on a book. You & Cable & Webster get up your prospectus, & send it to me, & if I see a place to add a paragraph, I’ll do that same.

Ys Truly
S. L. Clemens

P. S. Mind, we are not to read in Elmira nor in Hartford. Don’t forget that. No objections to other places.
