Charleston News & Courier Obituary Notice
From The (Charleston) News and Courier
22 April 1910
[Anonymous]

The announcement of the death of Mark Twain yesterday will be received with sorrow all over the world. His kindly humor won for him a unique place in American life. Aside from his literary work he was known and appreciated. Domestic sorrow weighed heavily on him, and the recent death of his close friend, Mr. H. H. Rogers, accentuated his burden of sorrows. Even so, Mark Twain was cheerful to the end, his optimism being present to the last. He will be greatly missed. There is no other to take his place.
