I have hit the mother load. I was going through an old chest that my grandfather bought several decades ago and I found a very curious piece of literature. I read through it several times and I believe that it may be a lost piece of work from Mark Twain.

It bears many of the ear marks of some of his stories. The speaking in the story is very similar to the way that Twain writes in that it seems to have a southern flavor. The story is also very full of dry whit and humor which is indicative of Mark Twain as well.

I intend on presenting the story in its entirety. Once I have presented the story I will of course be burdened with the near impossible chore of drawing the parallels between this new found literature and some of Mark Twain's previous work. I will attempt to show similar progression of ideas, similar character development, as well as similar characters in general. Any more description of my idea would ruin the surprise and would likely be just fluff.
