On a trip to the high country, the Padre's horses thrice tried
to rid himself of his rider by rolling on him. But the Padre
rolled his own and escaped. Al Lackey of the old Barton cow camp
on Roaring River remarked, "That horse must have some hatred
for the Catholic clergy. Perhaps he belongs to another Church."
"Yes," agreed the Padre, "he seems to be a wholly
roller." |
