They would check also check on the cattle and do any Doctoring as needed. Many years ago I wrote a monthly article in an area magazine called the Line Rider in honor of all the Cowboys that I grew

up knowing and working with. At the beganing I wrote the article in a correct form, after months some of my friends asked me when I was going to cut loose and write like some of the stories I had shared. I will write this article in the same format that I wrote the Line Rider in the South Texas Traveler in.
