The tale recounts how the collar saved the loot from train robbers, a curious detail that leads into a broader note on local sheep dealings by Loren and Frank Sylvester from San Luis Valley, Colorado. They seek to buy three trains of sheep to fatten in Colorado, using Canadian pea as feed, amid remarks on regional feeding practices and Sylvester’s 110 acres of suitable land.
