I had been 'blowing, Australian fashion, that I could handle that colt if nobody else was able to. The end of it was that the buckjumper got home, not me. I was laid up in hospital for close on two months, with a broken leg and complications. The complications were that old spear wound, which inflamed, and they found that a splinter from the jagged tip had been left in.
"Take care!" said Ida; "it is very strong. What are you going to do?" Stafford did not reply, but stole up to the truant step by step cautiously, and gradually approached near enough to lay his hand on its shoulder; from its shoulder he worked to its neck and wound his arms round it. Ida laughed. "Oh, you can't hold it!" she said as the colt plunged.
José Medina was completely at a loss as he looked into the grim indifferent face of his companion. The two horsemen were covered. The Colt would kill at more than five hundred yards, and it had no more to do than carry sixty. And still those two fools sat on their horses, and babbled to one another, and looked out to sea. "What am I to do with this loco Inglés?"
We have a better hope than that built on 'a stream of tendency that makes for righteousness. We know a Christ crucified and crowned, who fights for it, and what He fights for will hold the field.

I found that he could not bear the idea of his servant riding on a long march while his lieutenant went a-foot. He had found a mustang, a three-year old colt only recently captured, which had been purchased by one of the colored servants with the regiment for the sum of three dollars.

"De colt is lost and now dey takes mine gun from me; if I goes back dot way, fader will whip me harder than ever." Jack was serious for a moment and then he laughed. "I never dreamed that that was your trouble. Of course, if you go home without your gun the old gentleman will be angry, but there is one good thing about the matter." "What's that?"
'We were four brothers all serving in the army; two still write to me, the fourth is gone. Our father is an old man, and neither ploughs nor sows. He sold a beautiful colt for 150 roubles, for what is the use of a horse when there is no more farming? God! what a country this is, he continued with pity. 'With us in Siberia a farmer with no more than ten cows is called poor. We are rich!
The colt with one unearthly scream of terror leaped and plunged head down towards the water, shot dead through his stout, faithful heart. In a moment twenty men were running into the dark, shouting and shooting at everything that seemed to move, while the women and children screamed and wailed their fright within the little building.
"The fact is, I never was put to hard work. There were always horses enough besides me on the place to do the farm work and the teaming Tom and Jerry and the colt, you know; not Filly's colt: he died, poor thing, before he was a year old, of that disease with a long name that carried off so many horses all over the country: but a great shambling big-boned beast old master swapped a yoke of steers for, over to Skipton Mills.
