By Rex Stout The "Caesar" in the title is a bull; a huge, expensive, champion bull. Priced (in 1938) at $45,000, which would be close to a million today! Thomas Pratt, millionaire restauranteur, had his heart set on barbecuing Caesar Hickory Grindon, grand champion bull. He hired Nero Wolfe to provide a guardian for the champ. Naturally, Archie goodwin found himself in a pitch-black pasture at midnight, preventing anyone from stealing an unfriendly monster. It seems that an angry young man named Clyde had bet $10,000 that the barbecue would not take place. He was right. Everyone kinda lost their appetite when the main dish was discovered pawing at Clyde's mangled body.
