Abstract
William “Bill” Mashburn had been a diligent and devoted ranch hand at the renowned Hollinswood Ranch for a considerable period of time. Throughout his tenure, he witnessed various transformations and had been entrusted with maintaining the everyday operations of the ranch - a challenging task given the vast acreage. Mashburn had a wealth of experience in handling cattle, training hunting dogs, and managing land. Mashburn was pleased to share his work history with us, including his close association with the esteemed Hollins family, as well as his aspirations of relinquishing his managerial position on the ranch in the future. His incomparable knowledge and expertise in veterinary assistance had been instrumental in the welfare of the livestock as he has rescued countless animals.
