generated at 2025-10-20
The stock market crashed that day in October, and Jay Cooke & Company's downfall sent shockwaves through the financial world. My brother, a railroad investor, disappeared without a trace after losing everything in the panic.
I searched frantically for him in the dark city streets, but every face I saw was a stranger. The rain poured down as I approached his office building, where his last letter still lay on the desk: 'The railroad's collapse is near... meet me at midnight.'
With trembling hands, I broke open the door to his office and found a secret vault behind his wall safe. Inside, I discovered a ledger filled with coded entries about hidden financial schemes that could destroy the entire economy.
The city's lights flickered ominously as I tried to decipher the codes, but one message was clear: Jay Cooke & Company wasn't the only company involved in this scheme of financial deceit. As I stared at the numbers and symbols before me, a shadow loomed over my shoulder...
