Jim Harris frequently broke into song as he returned to Texas. He was now on the last leg of the trek home, and it was clear he was anxious to finish the journey. David Hubbard and Ben Burris from neighboring Parker County accompanied him as they continued south. Ben shook his head and commented, “We left them doggies up in Abilene. So you don’t need to sing to us.” “I’m a very happy man, Ben. I’ll see Brenda shortly, and I can’t help but sing,” Jim had a good reason to be happy. He had four thousand dollars in his pocket from the sale of his cattle back in Abilene. Now, he was looking forward to providing his wife with the better life she had been demanding since their wedding day. That provided a cause to be jubilant. With a grin, Jim explained, “Brenda and I have only been married six months, and most of the last two I spent driving those cows to market. now she won’t have anything to complain about since I won’t have to be gone so much and have plenty of money to spend on her.” Dave Hubbard sighed. “If she’s like most women, she’ll find something to complain about.”
