When word of the Pony Express being formed reached Texas, Clay Roswell decided to get a job as an express rider. At a way station in Kansas, he was told his best chance for such a job was along the desert stretch in Nevada Territory, so that was where he headed. Along the trail, he caught up with two brothers, Jess and Hoke Pickard. That night, when Roswell was in his blankets, the Pickards jumped him and set out to club him to death. They stole his money, his horses and outfit, and left his body behind. Only Roswell wasn't dead. And now he had a score to settle.
