through the gate. bawled rs II some COW were
hornng her. and ran away. A COW with three
dogs after her wouldn't be wilder than this
one. He tried till he was tired to drive the
other cows. and couldn't drive one Of them
into the field. He went home then and said he
couldn't get a COW inside the gnte.

were inside in the house after the day. and no
told them to 90 and help but not h COW could
they drive in. and they were in amaze with

they wouldn't go into the field as every even
