Mark Twain's Partner

In 1861, a 26-year-old Sam Clemens "went west" with his older brother Orion.

Orion sent him to work a silver mine that he and Calvin Higbie owned. This Saturday Evening Post article, dated September 11, 1920, paints a vivid picture of the young, soon-to-be-famous author, through the eyes of his new friend and fellow silver miner, Higbie. - Summary by John Greenman
