Barbara Does Her Duty
By PAUL STOUTENBURGH
I hope those who follow this column on
a regular basis will excuse my wavering
just a bit from the standard format of the
natural world. Yet when you follow the
account that follows, perhaps you will
forgive and chuckle as I did watching.
It all started while the "bug" had its
grip on me. Usually Barbara and I stay
outside the discouraging world of
sickness but this week I was trapped and
laid low suffering from the yearly flu
symptoms that seem to travel.in our
world.
It was just after breakfast and I was
lying on the couch while Barbara in her
usual cheerfulness was working in the

kitchen. There was a snow cover which
meant the pasture pickings were not
available to the two cows, Bessie and
Chuck. The result was that Bessie found
her way into the enclosed orchard and
garden, which was off limits to them.
Being a no -no, I brought it to the
attention of Barbara, who immediately
knew what her chore was to be. I just
wasn't able to help as I had been down a
few days and in no condition to round up
Bessie and shoo her out of the garden.
With just a touch of grumbling, boots
were put on and out Barbara went to do
her duty.
For some reason this time of the year
seems to put a touch of friskiness in
animals. Notice for instance how the dog
will run and play in the snow when he is
let out. Well, that's just how Bessie felt!
She was coaxed out of the garden all
right but all the time jumping and
playing and kicking up her heels to let
Barbara know she was enjoying the
attention. She seemed to say, "Let's go.
I'm ready for anything."
Chuck Builds Up Energy
In the meantime, double freshness had
taken over Chuck, who was coming up
from down below to get into the action
and see if he could add anything to the
confusion. All along Barbara was
running here and there in the fresh snow
trying to head Bessie off from going .
down the driveway toward the road.
Being inside, I could still feel
Barbara's frustrations mounting right
through thb thermopane window.
Nothing was going right and with only
one person the job of herding the cow was
becoming impossible.
Then, just as she got some direction
started with Bessie, Chuck with his
enthusiasm to become involved, leaped
over the fence and joined in the
frolicking! I couldn't believe it! In all the
years we've had horses and cows never
once has one ever jumped over the fence
-- but here it was. What did he think he
was? A deer?
Now Barbara had two cows loose and
heading them in one direction was
impossible. All the time the two cows
thought everything just great and they
were jumping and snorting about with
the joy of youth busting out all over.
There was only one who was not enjoying
this and that was Barbara. I truly wished
I had been able to be out there to help her.
Now For Some Quick Action
Now that the two were out, quick
thinking on Barbara's part made some
changes in her plan of attack. She'd go to
the barn and get some feed in a bucket
and by rapping on the bucket the cows
would come as they usually do each
morning when I feed them.
So off she headed, leaving the cows
looking dumbfounded and disappointed
that she was paying little attention to
them. As a matter of fact, they didn't
want to be left out so they actually ran
ahead of her towards the barn and right
into the feed room. When Barbara got
there she couldn't even get into the room
with these huge animals and their bulk
closing off the doorway.
Now what to do! How to back them out
was the big question and not being out
there I really don't know how she
persuaded one to move that gave her a

Search On
For Woman
SOUTHOLD -- Police are helping in a
missing persons search for a woman who
was last seen boarding the Cross Sound
Ferry at Orient Point Jan. 19 but who has
failed to show up at her home in
Sunderland, Mass.
Kathy M. Goggins, 26, is described by
police as 5 -8, 135 pounds, with fair
complexion, wavy blond hair and blue
eyes.
When she did not arrive home on Jan.
20, her brother, William Goggins,
reported her missing, police said.
She was last seen when a family friend
put her on board the ferry at 5:30 p.m.,
police said.
Police described the woman as being
"in a poor mental state."
Police are investigating the theft of a
windsurfer from Fisherman's Beach
after a Cutchogue resident reported it
missing sometime between Jan. 1 and 18.
Valued at $1,000, the sailing board is
described as white with a black skeg. It
has a white sail with yellow, red and
orange stripes and an orange mast.
Police also are looking into an at-
tempted burglary of a Main Road home
in Laurel which took place between 2 and
4 a.m. Jan. 19. Entry was gained through
a south side window, but nothing was
reported missing, police said.
Car Versus Car
A Mattituck resident was issued a
summons for failing to keep right and
driving an uninsured vehicle after his car
collided with one driven by William K.
Lumley, 41, of Medford, who was driving
east on Route 48 in Mattituck on Jan. 22.
Philip T. Sweeney, 53, was turning left
onto Wickham Avenue from Route 48
when he crossed over into the eastbound
highway lane at 7:47 a.m. He was taken
to Eastern Long Island Hospital, Green -
port, for treatment to head injuries.
Geraldine Girardi, 46, of Peconic also
received hospital treatment after the car
she was driving west on Route 48 went
out of control on the slippery pavement,
crossing the highway and striking a tree.
The accident occurred at 6 a.m. Jan. 24.
• Two women involved in a motor
vehicle accident on Jan. 18 refused
medical attention after their cars collid-
ed behind a school bus.
A car driven by Mary C. Mulhall, 23, of
Kenney Road, Southold, skidded on snow
and ice on Route 48 in Cutchogue when
she applied her brakes, police said.
Her car collided with one driven by
Teresa J. Benitez, 27, of Riverhead, who
had stopped behind a school bus at the
Bridge Lane intersection. The collision
occurred at 2:06 p.m.
According to police, Ms. Benitez sus-
tained leg injuries and Ms. Mulhall
suffered neck injuries, but both refused
medical attention.

chance to get a scoop of feed and coax the
other out and around. I'm sure there was
a little friendly persuasion here and
there that finally did the trick. Then with
the feed she led them into the corral and
promptly locked the gate behind them.
Needless to say when Barbara got back
in we didn't talk too much about cows, or
as a matter of fact, too much about
anything. Even to this day we speak very
guardedly about when the cars got ot:•
