DEAD COWBOY LOCATED ON
RANGE BY HORSE AS SENTINEL

Although he had thrown his rider
and kicked him to death, the horse
riden by T. r. Judson, an employee OF
the Spanish ranch, stood for days by
the side of his dead master, and when
found was weak and lettering from
want of water and food, says the Elko
Free Press. Western horses are
broken to stand by simply throwing
the bride reins from yer the horses
head, letting them dangle and drag
on the ground. and that horse will
stand there as safely as If it was Sc
curely tied. Judson had left the
ranch and was riding the immense
Cornucopia range, when his horse
became entangled in a telephone wire.
The rider was thrown and kicked in
the head, crushing his skull and kill
ing him instantly. When he did not
return to the ranch for several days,
a searching party was sent out to
look for him, and they found the horse
standing not more than ten feet from
the side of his master, whose body
had lain so long that it vas badly de-
composed. The body would probably
have never been found, except for the
presence of the horse, as the ground
at that place was thickly covered
with sagebrush, which hid the body.
