Against Henry's wishes, Alec rides the Black through the wilds of the Northwest in a re-creation of the last pony express ride. It's actually ly a promotional stunt for a message service called Jericho Express. An Indian boy and his mother protest the ride from the start, because Alec is not an Indian and the Black is hardly an Indian pony, but the guy who runs Jericho Express refuses to change his plans. The Indian boy, named Hank, tries to sabotage the ride, since it was an Indian who was the last pony express rider, his great-great uncle, Jericho Coyote. They get lost, but come to an understanding, and Alec lets Hank carry the book chronicling his great great uncle's adventures over the finish line, making him the last pony express rider.
