Little Song
|
Roy Rogers and Trigger wended their way home after a most satisfying day at work tending the boundary fences on Roy's large spread. About a mile from the homestead Roy noticed a cloud of dust rising from the trail that led from home to the main gate.
As he approached, he saw that it was a large squad of cavalry soldiers led by Major Ted. As he came up to the column of troops Major Ted called, "Whoa!" and addressed the famous cowboy.
"Good evening, Mr Rogers," he said.
"Good evening, Major," replied Roy Rogers.
"Are you' heading home, Sir?" asked the Major.
"I am indeed, yessir, I'm looking forward to a real meal."
"Just before you go, Mr Rogers, I'm afraid I have some bad news for you."
"Like what, Major?"
"Well, sir, the Indians have been on the rampage over at your homestead."
"My God! I'd better get over there right away!"
"Just a minute Roy, there's more. There's not much left of your house I'm afraid"
"That's terrible, I've got to get home to my family"
"Hold on Roy, there's more. I'm afraid they scalped your five children and appear to have raped the girls beforehand."
"Those savages!! I've got to get home to my wife, she must be beside herself with grief!"
"Sorry Roy, but there's more. They also raped your wife and mother before killing them. All the cattle are gone and they put an arrow through your dog Pal. Most of the house is burned to the ground and they put poison in your water supply."
"Oh my God! This is the worst day of my life! But still, I'd better get over there and see if there's anything at all I can do"
"Hold on, Roy - there's just one more thing . . ."
"Yes Major?"
"Before you go. Hows about a little song for the boys?" |
