Carson Letter Highlights Depression Era Carson City Real Estate And Mining Hopes
Carson Letter from January 2 1882 reports a dull capital city with steady business and plentiful money demand. Real estate declines as families leave town with one sale at a quarter of cost while a $2000 house goes for $500. The Mint's coin output remains steady under Superintendent Crawford. Mining at Voltaire mine shows promise with an 10 stamp mill and 80 percent silver bullion, but success hinges on ore yield. Public notices mention a $1000 reward for Pollock and wife murderers and a prison school and religious services for inmates.
