History of Westchester County, New York, Vol. II
Chamberlain closed out his interests and went to Douglas, from which city he was elected to the State Senate. He made a lot of money in the sheep business later. Doty held to the place for twelve
years, when he sold to the Two-Bar people. Both Doty and Chamberlain are now with the Final Roundup over the Great Divide.
The ranch is still owned by the Clays, and Curtis Templeton is the genial local manager.
"Henry County" Hughes has his ranch in this section of the country, although he lives at Scottsbluff much of the time. "Henry County" quit the Tuslers about 1887 and went to work for the Bay State. He was in Chris Streeks' outfit for a season or two.
Hughes is like Runey Campbell and Ed. Stemler in the respect that he likes to play the fiddle, and he is like J. S. Robb, in that he was one of the best story-tellers of the western range ; and he is like Wyatt Heard, and J. W. Hoke, and Auctioneer Hollingsworth or E. von Forell, that he is stall and spare, and like Mark Twain that his humor is droll and full of subtle elements.
Around cow outfits, at night he loved to get strung out with his yarns, and get the "boys agoing." But the foreman always settled matters when his stories reached too far into the night. He would roll up in his "tarp," and if "Henry County" failed to take the hint, he would say : "Ark, you better catch a horse, and go on night herd tonight," and that meant an order, and it also meant no more stories for that night.
