Endicott Lowell

Endicott Lowell was a cowboy who tended to General Pershing's adjutant's horse during the war. But afterward, during the Depression, he moved around the West coast, working odd jobs until he joined the rodeo as a clown. There, his identity covered in thick paste and yellow hair, Endicott thought he found a job where he could succeed.
