ALS, Redding, Connecticut, to Jean Clemens

Twain writes to his daughter: "I am very glad you enjoy sailing. Sixty years ago I think I ranked it above all pleasures." He also says: "I am doing very very very very little work. I am sorry, but I can't help it--without an effort, & I have ceased from having a liking for efforts. I seem to greatly prefer cards, & billards, & reading, & smoking, & lying around in the shade. However I worked 60 years, & if I am ever going to take a holiday it is time I was at it."
