"Cupid did the actual work, you trained him for it, and Higinson had the kind of a nerve that don't melt under fire." "Sure thing," sez Bill, "I own up that I was plumb petrified, an' Cupid wasn't carin' much one way or the other; but Hank Higinson never lost his self-possession a second," this was all bosh, 'cause I was purty nigh stampeded, an' that's the simple truth.
"It stands for Henry Higinson sometimes," sez I. Then I turned to the bar mop an' said, "Where's that saddle an' bridle?" "Why, it's back in " he began; but Snarley snaps in "You shut up, will ya? Even if this puncher did leave an old saddle here years ago, I bought everything on the place from Peabody, an' the storage on the rubbish would amount to more than it's worth."
When I went back I see that Bill hadn't spared no details to make me interestin', an' all the boys was friendly to me an' called me Higinson. Me an' Frenchy got along all right, an' when I threw my saddle an' bridle into the back o' the buckboard, an' sez, "Well, good-bye, fellers! I'm on my way to the Pan Handle," they all calls out, "Goodbye, Happy!
If any o' your friends inquire for you we'll tell 'em we saw you start; but the next time you come this way, Higinson, don't forget to drop in for a little sport." Things generally even up pretty well in this life, an' before we had driven very far I was able to see where I had got full value out o' that seven-dollar pony 'at Bill had beat me out of.
