(09:34):
I won't be long mad, I can't Hello, Kitty, Hello, Matt.
Who's your friend? His name's Nick Search, Kitty, So that's
Nick Search. Oh you've heard of me? A couple of
(09:56):
Texans we're talking about him the other day. Who were
those men?
Speaker 6 (09:59):
K I never said the names Matt. They were sure
talking about nixt.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Search next an old friend of mine his and I
think those.
Speaker 6 (10:10):
Men were lying, well, I hope so for your sake.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Oh why for my sake?
Speaker 6 (10:19):
He's an old friend of yours.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
That's not what you meant, kiddy.
Speaker 9 (10:26):
No.
Speaker 6 (10:28):
They also said he's pretty fast with a gun.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Yeah he is. And so if I back Aim up here,
then that's gonna look like I'm doing it because I'm
afraid of him. Huh.
Speaker 6 (10:42):
Not to me, you know that.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Yeah, But the most everybody.
Speaker 8 (10:46):
Else I don't know Matt here it comes Sam's bringing
him over.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Oh hello, Marshall. Hello son, Marshall.
Speaker 10 (10:57):
I seen you come in with Search here, so I
figured you must know him.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
I won't, he admitted, I don't like mixing friends with business.
You don't have no choice this time, Search not if
you want a deal in a long branch. What is it, Sam?
Those two Texans and their stories. H I heard and
we all heard.
Speaker 8 (11:21):
Probably a couple of saddle bums lost their paying an
honest game, and now they blamed.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
The dealer for it. It happened every day, I know that.
Speaker 10 (11:28):
But they they said other things about you, like what
where you can handle a gun?
Speaker 6 (11:35):
Marshall, you are a.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Good friend of this man. You want me to say
it's okay for him to deal here? Now, wait a minute.
If Matt's got to get involved, I can go someplace else.
That's all right, Nick, I don't mind it. Well, what
do you say, Marshall? Yes, Sam, I'll vouch for him.
I run clean games here and I run a clean
(11:57):
town here.
Speaker 10 (11:58):
Alright.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
How the Marshall's words?
Speaker 10 (12:01):
Search, you can open your game the night.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Oh good, Come on, man, let me buy you that
drink and I'll I'll see you later.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Ki ye. What's the matter of Sam?
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Oh? Oh, it's nothing, kiddy.
Speaker 10 (12:20):
Wise, It's just hate to think Marshall Dylan's standing up
for that fellow for the wrong reason.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Started with Sam Nonan Before long everybody got to thinking
I was backing up Nick Search because I was afraid
of him. I talked to Nick about it, but he laughed.
He said there were as many fools and dodge as
any place would ever been. Maybe he was right. Anyway,
after a month pasted without any complaints about his deal,
(12:56):
and I began to forget it. So when I knowing,
when Chester and I were taking our ease on the
fort in front of my office, Mister.

to live with. He was born on a place called
Bingo Bay in Ireland.

one of 'em, then he'll be your friend for life.
But he warned me about that too, He said, be careful,

said you were on your way to dodge they said
something else about you. What was that? Well? They they

rather believe you, Nick? Uh? You saved my life once. Man.
Speaker 8 (08:51):

Who's your friend? His name's Nick Search, Kitty, So that's
Nick Search. Oh you've heard of me? A couple of
(09:56):
Texans we're talking about him the other day. Who were
those men?
Speaker 6 (09:59):
K I never said the names Matt. They were sure
talking about nixt.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Search next an old friend of mine his and I
think those.
Speaker 6 (10:10):
Men were lying, well, I hope so for your sake.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Oh why for my sake?
Speaker 6 (10:19):
He's an old friend of yours.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
That's not what you meant, kiddy.
Speaker 9 (10:26):
No.
Speaker 6 (10:28):
They also said he's pretty fast with a gun.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Yeah he is. And so if I back Aim up here,
then that's gonna look like I'm doing it because I'm
afraid of him. Huh.
Speaker 6 (10:42):
Not to me, you know that.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Yeah, But the most everybody.
Speaker 8 (10:46):
Else I don't know Matt here it comes Sam's bringing
him over.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Oh hello, Marshall. Hello son, Marshall.
Speaker 10 (10:57):
I seen you come in with Search here, so I
figured you must know him.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
I won't, he admitted, I don't like mixing friends with business.
You don't have no choice this time, Search not if
you want a deal in a long branch. What is it, Sam?
Those two Texans and their stories. H I heard and
we all heard.
Speaker 8 (11:21):
Probably a couple of saddle bums lost their paying an
honest game, and now they blamed.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
The dealer for it. It happened every day, I know that.
Speaker 10 (11:28):
But they they said other things about you, like what
where you can handle a gun?
Speaker 6 (11:35):
Marshall, you are a.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Good friend of this man. You want me to say
it's okay for him to deal here? Now, wait a minute.
If Matt's got to get involved, I can go someplace else.
That's all right, Nick, I don't mind it. Well, what
do you say, Marshall? Yes, Sam, I'll vouch for him.
I run clean games here and I run a clean
(11:57):
town here.
Speaker 10 (11:58):
Alright.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
How the Marshall's words?
Speaker 10 (12:01):
Search, you can open your game the night.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Oh good, Come on, man, let me buy you that
drink and I'll I'll see you later.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Ki ye. What's the matter of Sam?
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Oh? Oh, it's nothing, kiddy.
Speaker 10 (12:20):
Wise, It's just hate to think Marshall Dylan's standing up
for that fellow for the wrong reason.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Started with Sam Nonan Before long everybody got to thinking
I was backing up Nick Search because I was afraid
of him. I talked to Nick about it, but he laughed.
He said there were as many fools and dodge as
any place would ever been. Maybe he was right. Anyway,
after a month pasted without any complaints about his deal,
(12:56):
and I began to forget it. So when I knowing,
when Chester and I were taking our ease on the
fort in front of my office, Mister.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
Dylan, did you ever know any irishmen?
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Of course I have Chester.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
I mean, do you know much about him?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Well, I have a feeling anything I don't know. You're
about to tell me.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Oh no, sir, it's not me. It's fella I used
to live with. He was born on a place called
Bingo Bay in Ireland.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Say, and what did he tell you?
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Well, sir, he told me never shoot a Irishman.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
What yes, sir, Cause he said, if you can lick
one of 'em, then he'll be your friend for life.
But he warned me about that too, He said, be careful,
never punch one of 'em in the face.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
It's give him a good whack in the belly, and
then a little child could whip me.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
That's a good thing of old Chester.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
Don't remember, yes, sir, I've wawas remembered it. I've made
lots of friends that way. Irishman, Yes, sir, all irishmen,
