Bull Dodging
Here I was on a quarter-mile down-grade, going at a rate which, for a boneshaker, was simply furious. The bull stood fast. I knew that my safety lay in bearing down the left wheel-track, on which he stood, till within a few yards of his head. If I turned too soon, then he would have time to turn and come at me broadside, and so leave me without a chance of escape and if I did not turn soon enough... As I drew near I saw by the short bracing steps of advance that he was preparing rather to meet a freight train than a lightning express. In far less time than I take to tell it, I sped to within what appeared to be two or three yards of his head. One slight twist of the wheel and I shot into the other track...I need not say
