colt 4 toots

One morning we get up real early and there was frost all over the ground, I told Johnny to go get the team and hitch it up. We were going to Rangely for something I do not remember what. We got in the buggy and started to leave.
One of the mares had a colt, I keep looking at the colt, I thought it was funny that the old mare would not let her colt nurse her. I told Johnny to catch that colt and see what was the matter with him. Johnny caught him and found out that the colt had his nose full of porcupine spines (needles). So Johnny and I tied his head close to a post, and Johnny held on to him while I pulled all the spines out of the colt’s nose.

Another time we could not find our colt, we look all over and we find the colt at Milton place. We told Milton that the colt belonged to us. That the colt was Toots; Bud gave it to Toots. Milton said it was his colt. I jump all over Milton for lying about the colt. He finale owned up to what he had done. Milton had a mare that had a colt that died, so he took our colt, and gave it to his mare. He never would give our colt back. Milton said that he would give Toots another colt. He never did give Toots another colt
