| When the thaw set in, he led them all out to feed, and the Wild Goats scampered away as fast as they could to the mountains. He said at dinner that we would not try to reach the cattle-- they were fat enough to go without their corn for a day or two; but tomorrow we must feed them and thaw out their water-tap so that they could drink. The walking was good, for there had lately been a thaw and everything was frozen. |
