Finally, at the end of the ear, the herd numbered exactly lfiOO head. In the Meantime the young fellow wrote glowing accounts of his prosperity to bis lather in tue east and the old man thought his son hud a bonanza and was destined in a few years to bo a second Jay Ghjuid, At the end of the year the 'governor' concluded he would pay his sjii a visit and accordingly dispaiched a letter notifying his son that ho would arrive on a certain uy This was a deadlier" to the young man His 1800 head ot sheep and depleted purse would not Oormpond with the glowing accounts he hud written to his lather.
