Jay Gould and Western Union in Miller Letter Tale
Joaquín Miller recounts a dramatic dialogue with Jay Gould about Western Union. He describes Gould as shrewd and untrustworthy, mocking the telegraph venture and narrating his cash gambles on stock movements. The piece satirically condemns wealth hoarding and exposes the volatile fate of speculation.
