Foot Caught in Stirrup May Mean Death to the Buckaroo
A Pioneer era note recounts a dangerous bronc ride mishap where a rider’s foot slipped from a stirrup and was dragged, leaving him bruised but alive. It recalls a prior near miss at the 1514 Round-Up and warns riders of the risk, with a closing sign-off from E. J. Despain in camp letters. The text then shifts to a government report on magnetic observations by the Coast and Geodetic Survey for 1916, listing stations, methods, and publication details.
