"I dunno," Happy responded from the stove, where he was trying how much of everything he could possibly pile upon his plate without spilling anything. "I didn't see no horses but the one he was ridin'."

While not impressed with the accuracy of these reports, I had the outposts strengthened, and placed a field officer in charge of them.
