Fool’s Goal

Fool’s Goal

I want to see and feel and know the West. All my life Ive watched trains of cattle unloaded here at the yards; now Im going to see where they all come from. I know quite a few Westerners too; men that have come in with the cattle. Theyre different from any one here, but I dont know whynbsp;nbsp;they should bemdash; barring certain colloquialisms born of their trade.It was all right for Dad to sit in an office and count cattle by car-loads, but Ive got to watch lsquo;em grow. And money will talk, when Im ready to have it speak. It isnt such a wild notion, when you consider the kind of men Ill be dealing with. A few thousands in cash will look a heap bigger than a check for the same amount. Imdash;why, Id take gold coin if I could carry it.
