Wikipedia refers to this as the Paine-Duneka text of 1916. It consists of a heavily edited version of Twain's manuscript "The Chronicle of Young Satan" with the ending of No. 44, the Mysterious Stranger tacked on. The edits to the texts were done by Albert Bigelow Paine who wrote with the assistance of Frederick Duneka new passages to bridge the two texts.
