Synopsis

Bill Pearson fought in the civil war for the Union. His sense of what was right brought him that decision. Raised in Kentucky and Missouri he continued his quest for righteousness, moving west where he eventually became a lawman. Along with his best friend Lee Johnson, they tested besting the powerful Williams Gang in Wyoming. A deputy was lost and the prospects were hopeless. Perhaps exhibiting a lack of confidence, they pair moved on to Arizona where they met up with another Civil War friend, Rod Jones, and once again pinned on badges. The ensuing years provided an exciting, fast paced life filled with typical badman/lawman adventures. Settling conflicts among ranchers and fronting a compromise with the Southern Pacific Railroad, while chasing two notorious outlaws, Pony Lincoln and Pony Martin, and suffering wounds and pneumonia, take their toll on the marshal. But, losing Lee Johnson to Lincoln causes Pearson to abandon his law enforcement days and head further west. Leaving his remaining deputies in Arizona, the former marshal takes up horse ranching near San Diego. Bill Pearson is essentially a happily married rancher until the past comes calling.
