Wealth in the West and a Camp Life Tale
Carl Johnson, freshly graduated from Cornell, joins the U S Geodetic Survey and travels from Baltimore to San Angelo Texas. A wild ride with a horse named Joe leads to a chance meeting with a Basque girl and her father, then to Fort Worth and back east as the Texas assignment nears completion. The piece blends frontier humor with regional portraits and notes on wealth seen in western life.
