After decades of searching, Mark Twain's signature was found inside the cave that he made famous through his writings
This week, the owners of the cave can finally confirm:"Sam Clemens," Twain's real name, is indeed inscribed inside the Mark Twain cave in Hannibal, Missouri.Clemens lived in Hannibal for most his childhood, from 1839 to 1853. Back then, the cave, first discovered in 1819 and containing three miles of passageways, was known as McDowell's cave.
"First thing, you think it's a prank, that someone wrote Clemens," Mac Donnell said."But when I saw it, I knew it was the real McCoy."Mac Donnell and Gribben first compared the signature to those of Twain's siblings and parents, to mark them off the list of potential Clemenses."I am going to go on record as believing this to be Sam Clemens's handwriting," Gribben, a retired professor at Auburn University-Montgomery, said in the statement.
