He was mounting the rocks, and the steer was limping behind, trying vainly to shake himself free.

He did not seem to know enough to hold back altogether.
"Well, I think that rather dangerous!" declared Phil.

"Supposing the steer should run for him ?" "I guess the cowboy knows what he is doing," answered Dave.
