The Tale of a Tail in a Rough Western Pub
A rambling tale set near the Murchison River describes Old Mick's death and a rough bar scene. A bet with spoons and sugar turns into a farcical exchange, and a dog Towser provides a comic, touching finale about a dog losing his tail and a hungry pair finding a strange meal on the trail.
