Which paper did Mark Twain work for, and David Gray edit?

[edit]

I changed the editor list to reflect that Samuel Langhorne Clemens, who was an actual person, and not Mark Twain, a pen name, was an editor of the paper.--24.211.187.175 (talk) 05:15, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I wish you had cited a WP:reliable source. Mark Twain's page says he worked for (and had an ownership stake in) the Express, not the Courier. (That is not cited, either.) Why does this photo bear a description on Commons (and also listed here under editors) stating that Gray edited the Courier? Why would Clemens/Twain pose with a competing editor?

There is info includable in the accompanying article at http://books.google.com/books?id=OUsIJluiyH4C&pg=PA216&lpg=PA216&dq=%22daily+national+pilot%22+buffalo+-podunk&source=web&ots=u1ymnLxlja&sig=0q9vR5_w4Y609Z-zpEu75aJW2VY#PPA218,M1 Note that two of the ancestors were the (Buffalo) National Pilot and its successor, the Courier and Pilot; BFP is probably most notable for the series of 8 letters about Podunk, apparently prominently cited in "The Rationale of Podunk" by Read in American Speech, 1939.
