When we got down to about where Douglas is now, we found that the Mexican Government was offering a bounty for Apache scalps.

That looked pretty good to us, for Injin chasing was our job, so we started in to collect.

Did pretty well, too, for about three months, and then the Injins began to get too scarce, or too plenty in streaks.

Looked like our job was over with, but some of the boys discovered that Mexicans, having straight black hair, you couldn't tell one of their scalps from an Apache's.

After that the bounty business picked up for a while.
