drivers long chase before they were
finally rounded up and driven in the
car. And then it was found that one

no result, and as it was too late to
leave that evening, Mr.. Hansford
drove back to his farm for the night.

ing. The animal had been overlooked
in rounding up, and was safe in the
pasture all the time.
