He was sorry now that he had played the trick on Dave.
The bronco had taken another run, coming to as sudden a halt as before.
Dave slid up almost to the animal's ears, but still clung on, and quickly regained his seat in the saddle.

Then, without warning, the pony dropped to the ground and started to roll over.
"Look out! you'll have your leg broken!" yelled Phil.

But Dave was on his guard, and, as the pony dropped, he leaped away to safety.

Then, as the animal arose once more, the youth grabbed the saddle and vaulted into the seat.
"Say, that's goin' some, I tell you!" roared one of the cowboys in delight.

"He ain't givin' in yet, he ain't!" "Look out that he don't bang you into a fence, or one of the buildings!" yelled Sid Todd.
