Davey Jerrold’s Jacket

CBS Radio Mystery Theater "Davey Jerrold’s Jacket" is a Mystery from Wednesday, November 7, 1979.

On April 29, 1803, Col. Davey Jerrold, as President Jefferson’s emissary, gave the Hopisake Indians the land between the Mississippi and the Rockies in return for their land east of the river. The agreement was written on the back of Jerrold’s buckskin jacket, now worn by Little Sister, the Hopisakes’ last survivor. She just wants to wander around the land, enjoying it—until she meets a con man named Curly, who has ideas on how both can get rich—quick.
