Bull, Roy Jonathan Davis, Jr., is orphaned during a Comanche raid on his father's ranch in 1873 Colorado.
Raised by Old Ned, a mountain man turned prospector, Bull remembers his father's advice to gain security by gaining wealth and power. He works as a Cavalry scout, then uses gambling and stock speculations to gain control of the Placer City Mine.
