His early sketches were published in the New Orleans Picayune , and his stories of Louisiana local color appeared in Scribner's and Appleton's at intervals from 1873 to 1879.

    Extractions: Clifton Waller Barrett Collection One of the lessons MT learned at the start of his career was that a lecture tour was a good way to advertise and promote a new book. Although he hadn't toured since the early 1870s, by the summer of 1884 he had hired Major J.B. Pond as the agent, and contracted with George Washington Cable, author of The Grandissimes and other fiction about New Orleans, to accompany him as a performer. Together MT and Cable were billed as "The Twins of Genius," and took the stage for over 103 performances in about 80 cities between 5 November 1884 and 28 February 1885. For the first several weeks MT's share of the program usually included a brief excerpt from Huck Finn typically, Jim and Huck's colloquys about investing in stock and "King Sollermun" and also a number of old favorites from his repertoire of platform pieces, including "The Jumping Frog," "The Stammering Story," and, usually as an encore, "The Golden Arm." Dissatisfaction with the program, however, led MT to redesign it over the break the tour took at Christmas; it was then that he decided to make the last section of his forthcoming novel, the "Evasion" in which Tom and Huck set out to free Jim, the major feature of the evening's performance. When the second leg of the tour opened in Pittsburgh on December 29, he premiered the piece. In a letter to his wife, he said that "it went a-booming" "it's the biggest card I've got in my whole repertoire." Beginning in the 1920s, many people became troubled with the novel's Evasion section (Hemingway said, for example, that readers should skip it), but the thousands of contemporaries who heard MT perform the episode on this tour seem to have loved it. MT's letters suggest that he too was mainly delighted with the new bill. One night in Canada, however, as he and Cable were making their way back to the hotel after the show, MT turned to his companion and said: "I am demeaning myself. I am allowing myself to be a mere buffoon. It's ghastly. I can't

"He also read conversations occurring between those charming Creole women of 'The Grandissimes' and in his mouth and through his art the music of their quaint and crippled English acquired a new and richer melody." From such high authority as the voice of President Gilman of John's Hopkins university come praises of Mr. Cable's recent reading in Baltimore, which render this added testimony of mine next to unnecessary. That this forthcoming lecture is not without interest outside of Hartford is evidenced by the fact that considerable deputations of well-known Bostonians and New Yorkers are coming here to attend it, and have already ordered their tickets. Also, I may state that Mr. Cable has been invited to repeat this entertainment in the Madison Square theatare, New York, at an early day

Ferguson Supreme Court ruling of 1896. In that window of time when it seemed to many that the future was open, Cable wrote against any idea of looking back to an idealized, monolithically-conceived past of white male supremacy as a basis for constructing a New South. With a conception of fiction as parable and believing that progress in the South required change of individual Southern men and Southern women, Cable modeled with individual characters possibilities of transformation of familiar Southern values and cultural practices regarding men's and women's roles, race, and, especially in Madame Delphine, religion.
