ranchman

There's a ranchman out there, I think his name is John Josephs, or some such name, who seems to want to get hold of our ranch.

The new-comer was Hugh Estill, the son of a wealthy ranchman who lived near, or at least but a few miles further down the valley.

All this time Clifford was mutely wondering why the wealthy old ranchman should be so anxious to meet his father.

No ranchman or hunter would hesitate a moment, under the circumstances, to give him his eternal quietus.

"One will do, Frank; and another thing," the ranchman said guardedly.
