Their routes were over sections Of
country where stage roads had not
been opened. sometimes extending for
many miles. and sometimes serving

already established.
Some OF these riders were young
men for such responsible duty. you
might think. but they had been
brought up In the country. had taken
part ID its adventures. dangers and
tilais. and at eighteen or twenty years
of age were as manly. courageous and
sngnrious on the trail as you would ex-
f'eci men OF forty 20 be.
The lives OF these mail carriers were
full OF adventure. The country through
which they rode was wild and unset
tied. and encounters with Indians. Wild
