"The Last Pony Express Rider" is how the WABC We The People radio announcer said it in 1939. Going for laughs, he called uncle "Bernyerd" and the town "Onion Grove". He asked Bernard if he ever had any trouble with Indians on his route. His son has a printed transcript of the interview, and also a metal disk recording presented to Bernard by the studio. If we can ever find a fiber needle, we might can get that recording digitized. The radio station actually paid for his railway round trip from Alabama to New York; and a few days in a hotel. Philatelists from all over sent him letters to cancel and post. Some even asked for used horseshoes.
