Martha "Calamity Jane" Canary (ca. 1852-1903) claimed to have ridden for the Pony Express and scouted for the United States Army during her years wandering through the American West. Legend holds that she received her nickname because she threatened to wreak calamity upon any man who bothered her. Photographed in 1895. |
