| I wonder how the folk of Edinburgh might treat a wee refugee Glasgow cowpoke seeking asylum in the east. |
| The old cowpoke, as they called The Duke, was a hunky Hollywood hero who ran a mile from his chance to fight in World War Two. |
| On a sudden impulse, the old cowpoke took off his ten-gallon hat and plumped it on the creature. |
| People also called him a cattleboy, cowpuncher, cowpoke, drover, wrangler, vaquero, buckaroo, ranahan, rannie, and waddie. |
| Back then, a cowpoke would rope a steer, wrestle it to the ground, and a compatriot would use an iron heated over a campfire to burn a mark into the cow's hide. |
| They might not have liked that kind of dishonesty in a young cowpoke. |
