The referee declared me the winner of the match, and the champion buffalo hunter of the Plains.
On our return to camp we brought with us the best bits of meat, as well as the biggest and best buffalo heads.

The heads I always turned over to the company, which found a very good use for them.

They were mounted in the finest possible manner and sent to the principal cities along the road, as well as to the railroad centers of the country.

Here they were prominently placed at the leading hotels and in the stations, where they made an excellent advertisement for the road Today they attract the attention of travelers almost everywhere.

Often, while touring the country, I see one of them, and feel reasonably certain that I brought down the animal it once ornamented.
