About midnight, the trail becoming obscure, the rider made camp, confident he must have already gained heavily on the man he pursued. He lariated his horses, and flinging himself down on some soft turf, almost immediately dropped asleep. He was up again before daylight, and, after a hasty meal, pressed on.
However, we had a splendid hunt, and on the second day I lariated, or roped, a big buffalo bull and tied him to a tree, a feat which I had often performed, and which the gentlemen requested me to do on this occasion for their benefit, as they had heard of my skill with the lariat. I captured several other buffaloes in the same way. The gentlemen returned to Omaha well pleased with their hunt.
Mose stood with hands gripping a post, his eyes thoughtful. Suddenly he threw off his coat. "I'll try him," he said. "Oh, I don't think you'd better; it'll bung you all up," cautioned Reynolds. Mose said in a low voice: "I'm good for him, and I need that money." "Let him breathe awhile," called the crowd as the broncho was brought back, lariated as before. "Give him a show for his life."
Homestead girls came and went, and flirtations to break the monotony while they stayed were nothing unusual. But when Imbert paid $10 for the teacher's box at a box-social held at the schoolhouse one night, the old-timers gaped. It looked, they said, as if that little tenderfoot teacher had Imbert Miller lariated. It beat thunder how the western fellows did fall for eastern schoolmarms.
Where is the animal?" Accordingly we all went to the place where Prince was lariated. The stranger untied the rope from the picket pin, and taking a half-loop around the pony's nose, he jumped on his back. In a moment he was flying over the prairie, the untamed steed rearing and pitching every once in a while in his efforts to throw his rider; but the man was not unseated.
The first thing I did was to hunt up my ponies, and from my father's description of them, I had no difficulty in finding them. They were lariated in the grass and I immediately ran up to them supposing them to be gentle animals. I was greatly mistaken, however, as they snorted and jumped away from me, and would not allow me to come near them.
