"A Pony Express Rider Writes from Raytown, Missouri

"A dispatch in the [Kansas City] Star April 28 [1921] stated that Henry Avis was the last living pony express rider."

(signed) Frank H. Gould ---A "letter to the editor" written and sent by Mr. Gould and published in the Speaking the Public Mind section of the May 3, 1921 edition of the Kansas City (MO)STAR

SO does this mean that the Frank Gould on the Pony Express Rider's LIST was NOT a Rider????????????????
