In the mornings, the wolves never bothered anyone. But in the evening, emboldened by the darkness, they had been known to attack grown men. The result was that little Jake had to be mighty sure to bring those horses back from pasture while it was still light And if it ever happened he was delayed until dusk began to fall well then his dad took over foe job of bringing those horses home. But one day things went wrong out at the pasture and little Jake Dublin almost didn't get back. He started early enough. It he had come back aa promptly there wouldn't hava been any danger. But trouble started when he reached the feeding ground and tried to bring the horses home. There was a beautiful filly in the herd, called Tara, which was aa yet unbroken. A couple of times before she had been hard to manage, but this afternoon Jake couldn't do anything with her. For almost an hoar he chased her about the pasture trying to get her wider control.
