"The 'Trail Boss' is the man in charge. The man who rides herd on the hands as well as the cattle. The Leader. The man whom experience has taught. The man who had learned from another trail boss. The man who sets the pace. The man who gives the orders...and must be obeyed. The man who has full responsibility for the safe conduct of the herd all the way. The man who knows everyone's job. The man who leads from start to finish."
