Ernest Thompson Seton
82
He
told
of
hunts
after
Coyotes,
which
usually
were
successful
because
the
Coyotes
sought
the
plains,
and
were
easily
caught
by
the
Greyhounds.
He
told
of
killing
some
small
Gray-wolves
with
this
very
pack,
usually
at
the
cost
of
the
one
that
led
them;
but
above
all
he
dwelt
on
the
wonderful
prowess
of
"that
thar
cussed
old
Black
Wolf
of
Sentinel
Butte,"
and
related
the
many
attempts
to
run
him
down
or
corner
him--an
unbroken
array
of
failures.
For
the
big
Wolf,
with
exasperating
persistence,
continued
to
live
on
the
finest
stock
of
the
Penroof
brand,
and
each
year
was
teaching
more
Wolves
how
to
do
the
same
with
perfect
impunity.
I
listened
even
as
gold-hunters
listen
to
stories
of
treasure
trove,
for
these
were
the
things
of
my
world.
These
things
indeed
were
uppermost
in
all
our
minds,
for
the
Penroof
pack
was
lying
around
our
camp-fire
now.
We
were
out
after
Badlands
Billy.
