Ride, baby, ride,

Pretty baby shall ride,

And have a little puppy dog tied to her side,

And a little pussy cat tied to the other,

And away she shall ride

To see her grandmother,

To see her grandmother,

To see her grandmother.

The Cruel Goat Herder Runs Away!

Drop That Whip!

Billy was right; the driver who was a poorly-paid half-breed Mexican had had enough of driving goats, and he was going back home and tell his master that a man came along and stole his goats from him; but not until they had had a terrible fight, which ended in his assailant throwing him into the lake for dead.

Button climbed up a tree. . .

He saw a large white goat was loitering behind as if looking for a chance to escape. But every time she did so the man who was driving them gave her a cut with a long-lash whip.

“Did you see that man strike her?” asked Billy Jr. in an angry voice. “He has struck her for the last time, for I shall break his back and butt him into the lake.” Like a shot from a gun Billy Jr. darted down the road.
