Nobody stayed the eight seconds when the Devil's horse were buckin'. Weren't no big deal, him tossin' riders them first ten, twenny times, with the prize the bosses offered goin' up a grand each time. But then he bucked off forty, 'n fifty, 'n the guy who tried fer the hunnerd grand fer the 100th ride weren't on longer'n four-five seconds.
