killed a sheep herdcr IN the Great FAN
district, two feet Of snow covering the
range in places. and the thermometer
indicated 40 degrees below zero. The
herder was frozen to death on the
prairie while caring for the sheep, and
1t was three days before his fate was
known to his employers. The shepherd
dogs were with him when he'died. and
one Of these stayed with his body while
the other attended TO the sheep just as
