I'll take him down there and if he gets quiet so that we can handle him I'll give you your fifty dollars, but if not I'll just make it forty, because there's no use a-talkin'. I aint agoin to take no chances with an ugly bull and if he doesn't behave will just put a bullet through him." I told him we would take him down as I thought he would go better if there were no strangers around him. Art. said he just wished he felt like he used to and he'd just put a bridle on him and ride him down "and he'd go dont you never think he wouldn't." I went out and helped Dad. throw some sods out of the ditches he was running till he finished about eleven o'clock and then we came in and got old Wilkins. Dad. thought we had better take one of the cows along to keep him company so we took Jessie. The scheme worked fair. I led Jessie & Dad. had Wilkins with the stick & a rope in his nose ring. They both walked right along and we had no trouble whatever. We tied him up down there in a box stall where I think if they treat him decently he will be all right. We got home soon after twelve and
