Read this excerpt from The Land, Part 4. "Well, why not? Maybe I wanted to ride for him."

"Well, if you did or you didn't, I know better about these things," said my daddy. "Some of these horses around here aren't half trained, some of them are skittish, and some of them are just plain mean. Now, I've seen some of that man's horses, and maybe you could ride that grey he was talking about if there were training time, but not just on a first ride. Not all folks train their horses same as we do, and you riding a stranger's horse is just asking for trouble. You could get thrown, you could get run over; in either case possibly get yourself seriously hurt. No, I'm not about to let you ride any horses except the ones we brought here."

"Well, I still say I've got a right to decide what I ride and for who. I'm not your slave anymore."
