"I've been in two circus blow-downs, and we had to stake the elephants down to keep 'em from blowing over into Texas." Landy was a good loser. He grinned, and began wrestling the trunks. All of Davy's plunder was moved into the fireplace room. "We will live in here this winter, and when spring comes, we can expand into the other room or out on the porch," explained Welborn.
"I may not be here always," explained Welborn, "and Landy won't be here forever. Young Goff is your bet. He's a square shooter, a good worker, and his sheep and your cattle are too few to awaken the old-time cattle and sheep wars. Tie in with Goff." And Goff came to look the place over and make a tentative contract.
He would have to pass the Gillis cabin and a warning could be phoned if a wire was strung from the Gillis home to Welborn's cabin. But in that case the wire would have to be extended to reach the mine as Welborn was up in that canyon during the day. Jim proposed a fence across the road with an electric alarm on it when the gate was opened.
And that's our present job. I have a friend in Springfield that's the greatest little banker the world ever produced. I'll get him here, or send Welborn I mean Shirley to him to learn the game." "This has certainly been my lucky day," said Townsend as the party broke up.
