I knew they were talking about me, but I couldn’t understand what they meant.
Then I thought, “Why, that’s it. They want me to help Grandpa.”
That would be all right with me. I could still hunt every night.

Chapter - XIX
ALTHOUGH THE WINNING OF THE CUPS AND THE MONEY WAS a big event in my life, it didn’t change my hunting any.
I was out after the ringtails every night. I had been hunting the river bottoms hard for about three weeks.
On that night, I decided to go back to the Cyclone Timber country. I had barely reached the hunting ground when my dogs struck a trail.
Old Dan opened up first. They struck the trail on a ridge and then dropped down into a deep canyon, up the other side, and broke out into some flats.
I could tell that the scent was hot from their steady bawling. Three times they treed the animal.
Every time I came close to the tree, the animal would jump, and the race would be on.
After a while, I knew it wasn’t a coon. I decided it was a bobcat.
