Like so many well-entrenched, traditional as- sumptions, this one is unwarranted. J. Evetts Haley, in editing one of the extremely rare accounts of the cattle drives to Califor- nia which preceded the Texas-to-Kansas experiment by a decade and a half, slapped the blame for this misunderstanding squarely on the writings of Emerson Hough. -

Lemuel Flower Stagecoach Pioneer
Biography of Lemuel Flower Lemuel Flower, a legendary division agent, for Ben Holladay’s Overland Mail company epitomized the spirit of the pioneer west. Enduring hardships of severe weather, long hours on the road, and surviving injuries incurred from Indian attacks. Lemuel worked thirty-five years in the transportation of freight, mail, and passengers spanning the entire continent of the United States from coast to coast. William F. Cody, places Lemuel Flower in Wyoming, working as an Assistant Division Agent at Three Crossings, with Jack Slade near the end of the Pony Express days, stating, “About the middle of September of 1861 the Indians became very troublesome on the line of the stage road along the Sweetwater. Between Split Rock and Three Crossings they robbed a stage, killed the driver and two passengers, and badly wounded Lieut. Flowers, the assistant division agent,” Promoted to a Division Agent in 1862 by Ben Holladay, Lemuel arrived in western Wyoming the 16th of April 1862, to replace William A. Reid, as manager of the stations from Pacific Springs to Miller’s Crossing near Fort Bridger in western Wyoming. A group of nine men in two stage coaches were attacked by Indians on the 17th of April 1862. During the four hour attack six of the nine men were wounded, namely: Lemuel Flower, James Brown, William Reid, Philip Rogers, Arthur Stephenson, and James Anderson. Lemuel Flower was gravely wounded, with a gunshot wound that passed through the hip lodging in his back, and one in the groin, lodging near the kidneys. The nine men waited almost three weeks at the Three Crossings station, tending to their own wounds, before being transported by military escort to Fort Bridger, where they received medical attention. -
