. 16–22 Aug 1881 to Ticknor, Ticknor 1922, 140.

16
. 25 July 1897 to Chatto and Windus, ViU. The proofreader had made half a dozen changes in the punctuation (which Clemens corrected) and he had struck a line under the word “drouths” (which was exactly as Clemens had spelled it in the manuscript). Clemens made the correction himself to “droughts” on the proof of chapter 25, page 147, of
More Tramps Abroad
(SLC 1897b). The proof with these changes is bound with the manuscript for the book at NN-BGC, part 2, following MS page 473.

17
. In the first example the typesetter had set “F
ROM
D
IARY
” instead of “From Diary” (as in the manuscript) on the proof of page 147 of
More Tramps Abroad
(NN-BGC). There Clemens explained: “Lower-case, as always before,” referring to his consistent practice with “From Diary” earlier in the text. In the example from “A Horse’s Tale” (SLC 1906c, MS at NN-BGC), he simply realized he was incapable of capitalizing the military titles consistently (and correctly). The typesetters did as he asked.

18
. See, for example, the Textual Commentary for AD, 11 Jan 1906
(MTPO)
, in which Clemens inserted a text of his Whittier dinner speech (1877).
