Sun Blistered Town In Utah
Erects Shaft On Spot
Where Riders Changed
Horses Seventy Years Ago
"Ibapah run-bltsfered town In
Utah's Deep Creek valley, recently
turned back the pages of 70 years'
history and dedicated a shaft mark
ing the location of the Pony Express
station which was the forerunner of
the town. The village, home of 313
residents, lies at the edge of a desert,
about five miles east of the Utah
Nevada boundary.
"This 'station' was one of the 130
established between St. Joseph. Mis
souri, and San Francisco, In an ef
fort to- cut in half the time neces
sary to communicate between the
east and west coasts of the United
States," says a bulletin from the
Washington, D. C. headquarters of
the National Geographic Society, "It
was In tills region that Indians, by
frequent attacks, nearly caused the
abandonment of the Pony Express
within two month after It waa es
tablished. Pony Express Inaugurated In 1860
"By 1800 the outside edges of the
continent had been colonized and
whltemen's activities penetrated in
land from the east as far as the Mis
souri river. But between 'Saint Jo
and San Francisco lay a forbidding
1. 066-mile expanse Indian Infested
plains of Kansas and Nebraska,
mountains of Colorado and Wyom
ing, and deserts of Utah and Nevada..
At that time, men generally linked
the two Jagged edges of the nation
by the circuitous 28-day route sail
ing from New York to Panama, trav
eling by mule train across the isth
mus, then taking ship to San Fran
cisco. "But the nation waa growing. Men
in the west sought closer contact
with those In the east. So was born
the Pony Express to brave the wilds
of the direct route, St. Joseph to San
Francisco.
"On April 3. 1860, all waa ready for
a simultaneous start from the two
ends of the line. From the east Into

Saturday October 13
St. Joseph puffed a railway train
bearing special mall bags from New
York. A waiting rider transferee; them
to his saddle and aped away to the
weat. For ten days and nights there
after, horses' hoof pounded con
stantly over the trail now quietly
in soft sands, now clattering across
stony mountain passes, now echoing
through deep canyons until the
mall arrived In San Francisco. It was
done tn a little over tea days. The
next trip took two weeks, but later
several trips were made in 9 days.
Carried Lincoln's Inaugural Address
"That same April 3, mall started
from San Francisco eastward, going to
Sacramento by boat. There a daring
rider tightened his saddle girths,
atrapped on the pouches, and waa
off. He covered the first 30 miles tn
99 minutes, traveled 03 miles farther
and relayed the bags to a waiting
rider. The second rode past the sum
mit of the Sierra, Nevadas, where the
next man took up the ride. The first
three men covered a total distance of
183 miles, part of which was through
30 feet of snow; they did It In 13
hour and 30 minutes! From there
five others followed one another, gal
toping through Ruby Valley, Deep
Creek Valley, Rush Valley, and Camp
Floyd at Salt Lake City. Eastward
from the Mormon settlement the
mall was hurried to Saint Joseph,
where the town went wild with ex
citement over the successful under
taking. "Incredible as It may seem, the
quickest time ever made by the Pony
Express waa In winter weather. The
document transmitted was President
Lincoln's Inaugural message of March
4, 1861. It waa borne over 3,000 miles
In seven days and 17 hours, said to
be the fastest long distance horse
back riding ever done.
Five Dollars Per Letter
"To maintain the speed of nearly
330 miles a day, there could be no
excess weight carried. Preference was
given to riders light as jockeys whose
enduranct and bravery were unques
tioned. Their pouches were small, a
bundle containing hundreds of com
munications often being no larger
than an ordinary writing pad. Each
letter waa written on the thinnest
tissue paper and for lta transpor
tation across the continent, five dol
lars waa paid tn advance. The large
newspapers of the country furnished
much of the business.
"A rider's safety rested largely
with his wits. To keep down weight,
he carried generally only a revolver
and a knife. He frequently relied on
