Horse Kogill and Mr Money-Man

By Campbell Slimon

THE BOOK: Horse Kogill and Mr. Money-Man'Ride like Kogill' was a saying 19th century in Iceland when the swashbuckling Capt. John Coghill was galloping across this land of volcanoes and glaciers. A train of horses with boxes of gold to pay for sheep and horses would follow. John was the agent of ship-chandler Robert Slimon, great grand-uncle of the author.

Robert and his wife, Robina, sail to Iceland on their steamship. Robina is one of the first women to travel through Iceland, staying in the traditional longhouses. They ride through the night on their return from Geyser and Gulfoss to catch the ship which picks up destitute emigrants.
She then rides with the legendary Coghill going on the famous sheep rounds-ups
