The Targhee huntsman was clothed in skins, and was a genuine type of the hardships of open Desert life. The objects of his chase were gazelles and ostriches, and the aoudad. His weapons were small spears and a matchlock. A most sorry-looking greyhound slunk along at his heels, the very personification of ravening hunger. Writer. "Targhee, where are you going?" Huntsman.

I fear they are not overly clean, what with mud and rain, devil-needles and burrs.
