Excerpts from Introduction: I have many friends among cowmen and cowpunchers.
I have always been what is called a good mixer I had friends when I had nothing else.
My friends were not always within the law, but I haven't said how law-abiding I was myself.
I haven't been too bad nor too good to get along with.
Life has never been too serious with me I lived to play and I'm playing yet.
Laughs and good judgment have saved me many a black eye, but I don't laugh at other's tears.
I was a wild young man, but age has made me gentle.
I drank, but never alone, and when I drank it was no secret.
I am still friendly with drinking men.
