Show ! ANOQMmKJL inn - A timid lann boy from New becomes the greatest gun Hjhter in the history rf the American West Perhaps it would attack him as birds sometimes go after eagles and hawks for invading their nests. When the bird came within range, Port could tell by its dark, glossy color that it was a male passenger pigeon. It didn't attack. Instead it circled several times, then landed beside one of the fallen birds, a female. Port lowered the rifle from his shoulder, watching the bird more closely. It strutted around its dead companion, occasionally cooing, again and again nudging its dead companion with its beak, trying to wake the bird up so it could fly away. "Go away, little dove. My gun is loaded," Port whispered to the bird. It remained by its companion. "She's dead. Your life is in danger. Return to the flock," Port continued. The bird remained. Port wondered if a bird could really love another that much. It didn't seem possible, but he didn't know how else to explain the bird's behavior. The gaiety of the previous moment was gone. There was a deep sadness surrounding the place, a sadness he knew would remain as long as the bird remained. And the pigeon didn't seem to have any intention of leaving. Port quickly picked up the rest of the birds and tossed them into his wagon, leaving the dead female so as not to interrupt her companion's fearless vigil. He climbed onto the wagon seat, wondering how a bird could love so much, wondering how dangerous loving could be. The male bird had no business returning to its fallen mate. Its return defied all survival instincts. Could love wield more power than the need to survive? sur-vive? Apparently it did in the case of this poor pigeon. Port wondered if human love was like that. Maybe he should wait until conference to meet Luana Beebe. He wouldn't want to do anything stupid like that poor pigeon. Perhaps he should proceed more carefully. But conference was still too long to wait.

Instead of hitching up the wagon for his trip to Independence, Port saddled Bill, a three-year-old bay gelding he had purchased from Cyrus Ward, a well-known horse breeder in Independence. The river boat that had carried the Rockwells to the Big Blue the previous fall had stopped in Independence In-dependence for repairs. The Rockwells Rock-wells had sold all their stock before leaving New York, the cost being too high to transport livestock on the rivers. They decided to replace the animals once they reached Missouri. Now that they were only a few miles from their destination, and with the need for repairs halting their river travel for a few days, Port decided to shop for a new horse. With a long rope coiled over his shoulder and four twenty-dollar gold pieces in his pocket, Port began his search. Several inquiries directed him to the residence of Cyrus Ward, the most successful horse breeder in the area. As Port approached the Ward place he noticed a well-fed, middle aged man chasing a beautiful bay gelding around a small pole corral. Several black children were perched on the fence, watching the man's unsuccessful attempts to capture the frightened animal. Whenever the angry man managed to corner the horse, it somehow managed to plunge away from him. Once when he got the rope around its neck, it reared and shook the rope free before the man could tie the knot. Swearing, he threw the rope on the ground. Having learned from one of the children that the man- was Cyrus Ward, Port entered the corral. "Let me fetch him for you," Port said, unraveling the rope in his hand and forming a loop. The red-faced Ward stepped back against the fence, catching his breath and nodding for the young stranger to proceed. Port caught the colt with his first throw. The animal stopped and turned towards the young man. Except for a slight quiver, it remained still, its head high and ears forward. Port approached at a slow, relaxed pace, talking quietly to the animal. The horse made no attempt to get away as Port stroked its neck, gently yet firmly. After securing Ward's rope around the neck and removing his own, Port stepped back, drinking in the details that made the horse desirable-the sloping muscular hip, the straight back, the pencil neck, the barrel chest, and perfect markings including four white stockings and an even blaze down the center of the face. The dark, alert eye was as clear as glass. The ears moved nervously back and forth. Port sensed an intensity of i York For Sole Miscellaneous PRESCRIPTIONS Fountain, free delivery.

Still a young horse, it was tall 16 hands, he guessed. For as long as he could remember Port had wanted such a horse-tail, perfectly marked, and athletic. It was the kind of animal a general would ride into battle. Port led the animal over to Ward and handed him the lead rope. "Thanks," Ward said! Port dropped his rope on the ground and offered his hand. The two men. shook hands, introduced themselves. Port explained he was a Mormon moving from New York to the Big Blue District. "Probably need a horse," Ward said. "Interested in buying this one?" Port could hardly believe his good luck. Of course he was interested. He would give anything for such an animal. He was careful, however, to conceal his feelings. He had traded horses before, and knew the un-writtenrules un-writtenrules of the ultimate poker game-the horse trade. "I'm looking for a good saddle horse," Port admitted. "But an animal that can't be caught, isn't much good in a country where the fences aren't built yet." "How much will you give me?" Ward asked.

This policy would cost less than to let them run down and then fix them up.

The man was more eager to sell than the young man had supposed. Port knew better than to be the first to mention price, which was a sign that one was eager to deal. Instead, he asked, "What you got to have for him?" "What's he worth to you?" Ward responded, realizing he had appeared ap-peared too eager, beginning now to play the game himself. Port figured the horse a real bargain at $70 to $80, but he wasn't about to tell Ward that. "What's a horse worth that can't hardly be caught in a corral?" Port asked. "You tell me." "How about $50?" Ward asked. Port was delighted at the price, but didn't say anything. He wondered won-dered if perhaps something was wrong with the horse, something in addition to being hard to catch. The price was too low. "A horse that hard to catch might have something else wrong with him," Port offered. "I could get a hundred dollars for him tomorrow in St. Louis, and you know it," Ward said, beginning to appear gruff. "Then why are you willing to sell him to me for $50?" Port asked. "Because I just wasted an hour trying to catch him, and I don't have the time to go to St. Louis, not in the middle of the harvest."
