    Worlds biggest fiber, twain, was friends with an honest man who always stayed true to himself, giant. What a pair. To be a fly on the wall as those two had a conversation.

    That was a beautiful story and picture of true friendship. Makes me think even more highly of these two great men.

    Mark Twain is the forest gump of the late 1800s he appears in so many unlikely stories.

    Happy fruitful year, I'm beyond excited! In just one week I'll be debt-free, having paid off my entire $285,000 debt and begun a new chapter of financial freedom.

      its luck, it's me just being at the right place at the right time. I met a financial and trading consultant at a seminar back at Los Angeles later last year, where she was featured and interviewed and I reached out to her afterwards.
      Her name is Laura Bledsoe, I didn't know much about trading and investing so I spoke to her about it, she then later introduced me to her platform where I and other people could invest.

      A CNBC news host spoke highly big about this woman and her loss preventing strategies. Been trying to reach her since. Thanks y'all for the info.

    Mark Twain began in the proconfederate miltia in the North East corner of the (proconfederate majority) Little Dixie Hannibal. (Missouri had 5 main areas and 2 main areas were proconfederate, the Little Dixie for the higher % slave population and the South Kansas border area for the Bleeding Kansas (1854-1860) precivil War era. The St Louis area, Ozark region and the Iowa border stripe areas were prounionist majority regions.) Mark Twain's brother was prounionist and he took his brother to Nevada. Mark Twain became prounionist in Nevada.

    Copies of General Grant's memoirs are available from Amazon books.

    To be clear, the train that took Grant to upstate New York went to SARATOGA Springs, not "Sarasota" Springs. And the cottage was near Saratoga, not Syracuse, which is nowhere near there.
