Misnamed article

Latest comment: 13 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The partnership of Mackay, Fair, Flood, and O'Brien was most commonly called the Bonanza Firm. The terms Bonanza Kings and especially Silver Kings were more widely applied to include other capitalists who became rich from the Comstock. For confirmation of this, see the NY Times article linked at the bottom of the article. If this article is to be restricted to Mackay, Fair, Flood, and O'Brien, it should be called Bonanza Firm.
