Transcript of the 2nd letter: 224 F Street Washington, DC Feb 19th Your Excellency, This is to duplicate a letter I wrote yesterday by the unreliable Overland mail wherein was set forth that I shall have completed my book in the course of a couple months of so – then I would like to go with your Embassy as a dignitary of some kind or other, & privately on my own hook as Herald Tribune correspondent. I want to be a mild sort of dignitary, though, particularly. Pray save me a place. Correspondents will hover about the Expedition anyhow, & so it will be best to the interests of China & the world, that one of them, at least, should be __reliable__. With kindest regards to my Sandwich Islands acquaintance among your now exceedingly large family, I remain, Yours truly, Mark Twain
