THE BOWERS MANSION - NEAR CARSON CITY, NEVADA
Built by Sandy Bowers and his wife, who became millionaires overnight from a 20-foot strip on the
Comstock Lode at Virginia City, Nevada. The Bowers, through poor advice and lack of experience, soon
went through their money, and after Sandy died, Mrs. Bowers made her living telling fortunes at Vir-
ginia City.
