Then he went on toward a herd of buffalo and began to call them, and the buffalo started toward him and followed him, until they were inside the arms of the V. Then he ran to one side and hid, and as the people rose up the buffalo ran on in a straight line and jumped over the cliff and some of them were killed by the fall. "I expect I know more than most about her," says Nolly, who is enjoying himself immensely among the sponge, and the plum-cakes.
