Hope that helps and isn't something you've already tried.  |

Well, see, now, that was the problem. There weren't any set screws. None at all. It turns out that you are supposed to be able to remove this little cap at the front that lets you access the screw, but even a hammer and chisel wouldn't get the damn thing off.
So, I just pulled REALLY hard, and I do mean REALLY hard, and then patched the drywall. Problem solved. Patching drywall is really easy.
And, DG, except for the fact that this was one of those little hand towel ring type "rods", and so there was only one hole in the wall, you were absolutely correct.
