	Samuel L. Clemens (1835-1910) American author and humorist. Born November 30, 1835 at Florida, Missouri. He was apprenticed to a printer at age 12 and was a Mississippi River pilot for a short time. He went west as a secretary to his brother who had been appointed territorial secretary of Nevada. He was the city editor of the Virginia City (Nev.) Enterprise in 1862, and alternated between mining and newspaper work, until, becoming noted as a humorist, he began lecturing and reading books. He founded the publishing house of C. L. Webster & Co. in 1884 and its failure nearly ruined him financially. Among his many famous books are: "The Innocents Abroad", ~~"Roughing It", Adventures of Tom Sawyer", The Prince and the Pauper", The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn", "~~A Yankee at the Court of King Arthur", etc. He was a member of Polar Star Lodge No. 79, St. Louis, Mo. (EA May 22, 1861, FC June 12, 1861, MM July 10, 1861). He was later suspended and reinstated on April 24, 1867. He demitted October 8, 1868 and presumably never again affiliated with any lodge.
