I never took part in a run which ended in the death of a wolf without getting through the run in time to see the death. It was tremendous galloping over cut banks, prairie dog towns, flats, creek bottoms, everything. I NEVER TOOK PART IN A RUN WHICH ENDED IN THE DEATH OF A WOLF WITHOUT GETTING THROUGH THE RUN IN TIME TO SEE THE DEATH IT WAS TREMENDOUS GALLOPING OVER CUT BANKS PRAIRIE DOG TOWNS FLATS CREEK BOTTOMS EVERYTHING
it all, due I suppose in part to the fact that I am no longer a candidate and am free from the everlasting suspicion and ill-natured judgment which being a candidate entails. However, both in Kentucky, and especially in Texas, I was received with a warmth and heartiness that surprised me, while the Rough Riders' reunion at San Antonio was delightful in every way. Then came the five days wolf hunting in Oklahoma, and this was unalloyed pleasure, except for my uneasiness about Auntie Bye and poor little Sheffield. General Young, Dr. Lambert and Roly Fortescue were each in his own way just the nicest companions imaginable, my Texas hosts were too kind and friendly and open-hearted for anything. I want to have the whole party up at Washington next winter. The party got seventeen wolves, three coons, and any number of rattlesnakes. I was in at the death of eleven wolves. The other six wolves were killed by members of the party who were off with bunches of dogs in some place where I was not. IRRESPONSIBILITY ABOUT IT ALL DO I SUPPOSE IN PART TO THE FACT THAT I AM NO LONGER A CANDIDATE AND AM FREE FROM THE EVERLASTING SUSPICION AND ILL NATURED JUDGMENT WHICH BEING A CANDIDATE ENTAILS HOWEVER BOTH IN KENTUCKY AND ESPECIALLY IN TEXAS I WAS RECEIVED WITH A WARMTH AND HEARTINESS THAT SURPRISED ME WHILE THE ROUGH RIDER'S REUNION AT SAN ANTONIO WAS DELIGHTFUL IN EVERY WAY THEN CAME THE FIVE DAYS WOLF HUNTING IN OKLAHOMA AND THIS WAS UNALOYED PLEASURE EXCEPT FOR MY UNEASINESS ABOUT AUNTIE BYE AND POOR LITTLE SHEFFIELD GENERAL YOUNG DOCTOR LAMBERT AND ROLLIE FORTESCUE WERE EACH IN HIS OWN WAY JUST THE NICEST COMPANIONS IMAGINABLE MY TEXAS HOSTS WERE TOO KIND AND FRIENDLY AND OPEN HEARTED FOR ANYTHING I WANT TO HAVE THE WHOLE PARTY UP AT WASHINGTON NEXT WINTER THE PARTY GOT SEVENTEEN WOLVES THREE COONS AND ANY NUMBER OF RATTLESNAKES I WAS IN AT THE DEATH OF ELEVEN WOLVES THE OTHER SIX WERE KILLED BY MEMBERS OF THE PARTY WHO WERE OFF WITH BUNCHES OF DOGS IN SOME PLACE WHERE I WAS NOT
