Cody's Ride

The Story

As a Pony Express rider, Cody Bailey knew the harsh, dangerous Nebraska prairie as well as anyone. He had sworn an oath to see that the mail got through regardless of the nomadic tribes of Indians and bands of outlaws who roamed along the Platte River. He had been riding for the Pony Express since its inception the year before and had completed his run many times without serious trouble, but that was before Big Joe Murphy arrived from Independence escorting an emigrant train west. When Cody learned that the rogue pilot was actually leading the wagon train into a deadly trap, he had to make a tough decision: try to save Jenny Rutherford and the five families of the wagon train or honour his oath to get the mail through.
