In fact, I'm foreman of both herds live with the lead one and occasionally go back and see my own. It all depends on who feeds best." "And when will your herd reach the Beaver?" continued Forrest.

With the assistance of crutches, Forrest managed to reach the opening, and by clinging to the tent-pole, waved a welcome to the approaching trail men.

Blocker's overseer attempted to flog a negro he refused to be flogged; whereupon the overseer seized an axe, and cleft his skull. The Colonel justified it. "One Jones whipped a woman to death for 'grabbling' a potato hill. He owned 80 or 100 negroes. His own children could not live with him.
