This is the …

Sharon Farrell is the big guest star in Wagon Train: The Pearlie Garnet Story, a ninety-minute, seventh season episode of the series. There’s little to love about Pearlie. She’s a pathetic and sad character, and this is her story, much of which is told in flashback.
The story reveals …
