Pemble with my mule.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
I always do. I hear you're broke.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
What do you do for a living?
Speaker 7 (06:47):
I never did nothing much, Marshall, just ride around on
my mule.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
What about your guitar? Don't you ever play and take
up a collection or something? Oh, Marshall, I wouldn't do that.
Why not you playing enough?
Speaker 5 (07:01):
I don't know, Marshall.
Speaker 6 (07:02):
I never played it for nobody to hear except me,
Uh Chuester.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Take him over the long branch with him. Maybe Sam
can give him a job of some kind.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
It wouldn't be steady, would it.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Well, I don't know, but I shouldn't.
Speaker 5 (07:19):
Be, because I believe in in a day or two, oh,
where you're headed nowhere?
Speaker 3 (07:26):
Nowhere, just right around on my mule, always do where
you're from anyway?
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Then I was born Sam Benito.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
The real grand Yes, but I left, took.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
My guitar with me, never did go back.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
But if you're from Texas, come here far in the Union.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
Army, I don't know one army just like another. I guess.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Yeah, maybe you're right at that.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
I've only done what they told me.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Marshall. Sure, uh Chuester, take him over to Sam's.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
With him, I laughed, mcgitjar out back. I'll go get it.
Speaker 6 (08:05):
He'm sure he's a little fella that's doing Yeah, pretty
helpless too.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Do you think short and.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Collar are bothering him anymore?
Speaker 3 (08:14):
O'h knowing them, I believe they'dn't hung him yesterday if
they couldn't. You tell Sam to let me know if
I even start talking to him again.
Speaker 6 (08:21):
Yes, sure I will They're about the meanest pair of
men I ever do.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Yeah, they are. They don't think of something.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Well, Bendall said, he leaving him there too.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
And I just hope it's sooner. Chester. Sam gave weed
Pendle a job sweeping up the saloon and let him
live in a tiny shack out back.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
He tried to get him to play.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
His guitar, but Bendel wouldn't do it. We all began
to think that he probably didn't even know how. It's
kind of hard to believe in anybody as simple as
he was could learn to do anything. I looked up
Short and Tyler and I wanted him again to leave
you alone, And they did until one morning a couple
of days later Chester, when I just come out of Dolmonico's.
(09:11):
We were walking up the front street.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
But what you're doing across the plaza there?
Speaker 3 (09:18):
And I see him and let's go over.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
In his mule?
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Yeah, Tyler and Short too. I tell him to keep
away from him?
Speaker 4 (09:31):
What they laughing at?
Speaker 3 (09:32):
How they're laughing and he isn't. Are you supposed to
have done to him? Look at his mule of Chester.
That's what they'd done him.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
Goodness, But he's lost the ear. I guess there's just
no pleasing me. I'm shouldn't have done that to my
mule that you met. This, No, Marshall, we'd done nothing
to Pendle.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Did they do this? Pendle?
Speaker 4 (10:04):
I tried to stop him, but Tyler held me and
they gave me the year. Marshall's right here.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Yeah, all right, turn around, both of you. What turn
all right?
Speaker 4 (10:20):
I sent.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
I think that God is Chesters Marshall.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
We didn't hurt Pendle not.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
I don't like what you did to his mule. All right,
you can turn around now. I had to cut on
hair off each one of here, but I can't do that,
so I'll do the next best. Thank Lave on the
Airchester Gondle, I'm sorry about your mule. Ain't much of
(10:58):
the mule anymore. You'll go take care of him now,
maybe these two Olivia alone?
Speaker 5 (11:04):
Now, who am you?
Speaker 6 (11:18):
You know what Weed Pindall told me yesterday met.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
And it could have been most anything him kidding.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
This kind of made sense.
Speaker 6 (11:27):
I asked him if.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
He was ever lonely.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
He said no, he.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Never stayed anywhere long enough to get to.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
Know anybody that well.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
And that's the strange after all.
Speaker 6 (11:40):
Oh now, what are they up to?
Speaker 3 (11:43):
Tyler? Shot?
Speaker 5 (11:44):
I just came in with pindle. That's gear with him.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Hey, this never bought it. Weren't get talk for him.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
This's gonna try it. Yeah, don't shoot my mule at you?
To you now, if you play good, you're started.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
If you know how.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Kill a man, you gotta stop him.
Speaker 9 (12:11):
Wait a minute, kidding, I don't kid get out of you.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
It was beautiful, kind of surprised. I'm sure I don't
look too happy about it.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Go ahead, bully a laming.
Speaker 6 (13:28):
Hello, yankee, been playing that guitar long time, and that's
when married you.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
They wanted me to.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
They liked it me.
Speaker 6 (13:38):
In short, we've been waiting to tell you how we
like it too. Yeah, let me see a guitar pane. No,
you hurt my mule, give me.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
I got a gun in here, belly pandal.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
Don't you mean I want my guitar? You can't have it.
Speaker 7 (13:51):
I just want to sort of tune it for you first.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
And you know that's another thing that's wrong with this guitar.
It's a little bit too big for a man like you.
Out and fix that too, You are Yankee soldier. Oh,
I got all to.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
Learn it but let's go down. Are they both dead?
Speaker 6 (14:31):
Yes, real dead for several hours at least, But they
must be asleep when it happened.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Uh, it looks like short there struggled a little way.
I guess tired. I got his first and walked short
up from it. He wasn't a very long man. That's
long enough to say who was cutting his throat?
Speaker 5 (14:48):
Probably they can't talk now.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
I'm all through here. Why do you want to do? Well,
let's the hotel. Worry about him? I guess it's lead
and all I want now?
Speaker 6 (15:01):
And him such a mile, little fellow Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
Any man can take just so much Chester.
Speaker 6 (15:07):
He sure hate to see poor Pindle hang for killing
these two buzzards.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Manosin wait for me for the jail. I'll bring him
over there.
Speaker 10 (15:15):
So I find him, Simon, What will it be in Marshall?
Speaker 6 (15:29):
Where's weed Pendle? I just sent him out back for
a bucket of sawdust?
Speaker 2 (15:33):
What do you want them for?
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Shortened Tyler got their throats cut early this morning.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
That's good.
Speaker 6 (15:39):
I guess they're smashing. His guitar was too much for Pendle,
and so.
Speaker 5 (15:44):
Was now Pindo come over here?
Speaker 6 (15:47):
Yes, born in Marshall mandle, pindle, where was your last night?

Speaker 3 (16:02):
You after they wrecked your guitar? Pindle? Now, I sat
in the alley a while and I come.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
Back in here, that's right.
Speaker 6 (16:10):
And he was so broke up about his guitar or
I didn't want to leave malone, so I put him on.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
The floor of my room and that right, Pindle, go
on and tell him now.
Speaker 4 (16:18):
Sure, that's right?
Speaker 3 (16:20):

Speaker 6 (16:30):
Tell me he means some of the boys who was
here when he came back with his busted guitar? Marshal,
I just told him out, sorry, there wasn't so.
Speaker 3 (16:41):

Speaker 3 (16:58):
Okay, Sam, I guess I can't beat the truth out
of him myself. Who cares about Tyler Short?
Speaker 6 (17:04):

for everybody. And I'll be back later. What you gonna do?
Speaker 6 (17:29):
Now?
Speaker 4 (17:30):
What you're doing?
Speaker 3 (17:31):
And I've done all I can. Chester, the whole town, just
plain quick talking. Nobody knows anything. I reckon.
Speaker 5 (17:37):
They're all protaking penal, they are.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
But he didn't do it. And if I could prove
who did at Chester, I'd have him in jail. You
know it. Chester, Come over here a minute, Al, I declare.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
It looks to me like he's leaving town.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Yeah, I told him he could go. He looks funnier.
And there on that whole one eared new Dodge treated
bumble pretty rough. It sure did.
Speaker 5 (18:16):
Onefulla.
Speaker 6 (18:18):
It was kind of empty like that a guitar, don'ty.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
And maybe he'll find another one somewhere anyway. They sure
like to hear him play in this time, Sam, I
figure a couple of the other boys on the take it. Yeah,
they liked it just fine.

Pemble with my mule.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
I always do. I hear you're broke.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
What do you do for a living?
Speaker 7 (06:47):
I never did nothing much, Marshall, just ride around on
my mule.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
What about your guitar? Don't you ever play and take
up a collection or something? Oh, Marshall, I wouldn't do that.
Why not you playing enough?
Speaker 5 (07:01):
I don't know, Marshall.
Speaker 6 (07:02):
I never played it for nobody to hear except me,
Uh Chuester.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Take him over the long branch with him. Maybe Sam
can give him a job of some kind.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
It wouldn't be steady, would it.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Well, I don't know, but I shouldn't.
Speaker 5 (07:19):
Be, because I believe in in a day or two, oh,
where you're headed nowhere?
Speaker 3 (07:26):
Nowhere, just right around on my mule, always do where
you're from anyway?
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Then I was born Sam Benito.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
The real grand Yes, but I left, took.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
My guitar with me, never did go back.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
But if you're from Texas, come here far in the Union.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
Army, I don't know one army just like another. I guess.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Yeah, maybe you're right at that.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
I've only done what they told me.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Marshall. Sure, uh Chuester, take him over to Sam's.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
With him, I laughed, mcgitjar out back. I'll go get it.
Speaker 6 (08:05):
He'm sure he's a little fella that's doing Yeah, pretty
helpless too.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Do you think short and.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Collar are bothering him anymore?
Speaker 3 (08:14):
O'h knowing them, I believe they'dn't hung him yesterday if
they couldn't. You tell Sam to let me know if
I even start talking to him again.
Speaker 6 (08:21):
Yes, sure I will They're about the meanest pair of
men I ever do.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Yeah, they are. They don't think of something.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Well, Bendall said, he leaving him there too.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
And I just hope it's sooner. Chester. Sam gave weed
Pendle a job sweeping up the saloon and let him
live in a tiny shack out back.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
He tried to get him to play.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
His guitar, but Bendel wouldn't do it. We all began
to think that he probably didn't even know how. It's
kind of hard to believe in anybody as simple as
he was could learn to do anything. I looked up
Short and Tyler and I wanted him again to leave
you alone, And they did until one morning a couple
of days later Chester, when I just come out of Dolmonico's.
(09:11):
We were walking up the front street.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
But what you're doing across the plaza there?
Speaker 3 (09:18):
And I see him and let's go over.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
In his mule?
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Yeah, Tyler and Short too. I tell him to keep
away from him?
Speaker 4 (09:31):
What they laughing at?
Speaker 3 (09:32):
How they're laughing and he isn't. Are you supposed to
have done to him? Look at his mule of Chester.
That's what they'd done him.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
Goodness, But he's lost the ear. I guess there's just
no pleasing me. I'm shouldn't have done that to my
mule that you met. This, No, Marshall, we'd done nothing
to Pendle.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Did they do this? Pendle?
Speaker 4 (10:04):
I tried to stop him, but Tyler held me and
they gave me the year. Marshall's right here.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Yeah, all right, turn around, both of you. What turn
all right?
Speaker 4 (10:20):
I sent.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
I think that God is Chesters Marshall.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
We didn't hurt Pendle not.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
I don't like what you did to his mule. All right,
you can turn around now. I had to cut on
hair off each one of here, but I can't do that,
so I'll do the next best. Thank Lave on the
Airchester Gondle, I'm sorry about your mule. Ain't much of
(10:58):
the mule anymore. You'll go take care of him now,
maybe these two Olivia alone?
Speaker 5 (11:04):
Now, who am you?
Speaker 6 (11:18):
You know what Weed Pindall told me yesterday met.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
And it could have been most anything him kidding.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
This kind of made sense.
Speaker 6 (11:27):
I asked him if.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
He was ever lonely.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
He said no, he.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Never stayed anywhere long enough to get to.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
Know anybody that well.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
And that's the strange after all.
Speaker 6 (11:40):
Oh now, what are they up to?
Speaker 3 (11:43):
Tyler? Shot?
Speaker 5 (11:44):
I just came in with pindle. That's gear with him.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Hey, this never bought it. Weren't get talk for him.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
This's gonna try it. Yeah, don't shoot my mule at you?
To you now, if you play good, you're started.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
If you know how.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Kill a man, you gotta stop him.
Speaker 9 (12:11):
Wait a minute, kidding, I don't kid get out of you.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
It was beautiful, kind of surprised. I'm sure I don't
look too happy about it.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Go ahead, bully a laming.
Speaker 6 (13:28):
Hello, yankee, been playing that guitar long time, and that's
when married you.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
They wanted me to.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
They liked it me.
Speaker 6 (13:38):
In short, we've been waiting to tell you how we
like it too. Yeah, let me see a guitar pane. No,
you hurt my mule, give me.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
I got a gun in here, belly pandal.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
Don't you mean I want my guitar? You can't have it.
Speaker 7 (13:51):
I just want to sort of tune it for you first.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
And you know that's another thing that's wrong with this guitar.
It's a little bit too big for a man like you.
Out and fix that too, You are Yankee soldier. Oh,
I got all to.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
Learn it but let's go down. Are they both dead?
Speaker 6 (14:31):
Yes, real dead for several hours at least, But they
must be asleep when it happened.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Uh, it looks like short there struggled a little way.
I guess tired. I got his first and walked short
up from it. He wasn't a very long man. That's
long enough to say who was cutting his throat?
Speaker 5 (14:48):
Probably they can't talk now.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
I'm all through here. Why do you want to do? Well,
let's the hotel. Worry about him? I guess it's lead
and all I want now?
Speaker 6 (15:01):
And him such a mile, little fellow Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
Any man can take just so much Chester.
Speaker 6 (15:07):
He sure hate to see poor Pindle hang for killing
these two buzzards.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Manosin wait for me for the jail. I'll bring him
over there.
Speaker 10 (15:15):
So I find him, Simon, What will it be in Marshall?
Speaker 6 (15:29):
Where's weed Pendle? I just sent him out back for
a bucket of sawdust?
Speaker 2 (15:33):
What do you want them for?
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Shortened Tyler got their throats cut early this morning.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
That's good.
Speaker 6 (15:39):
I guess they're smashing. His guitar was too much for Pendle,
and so.
Speaker 5 (15:44):
Was now Pindo come over here?
Speaker 6 (15:47):
Yes, born in Marshall mandle, pindle, where was your last night?

Speaker 3 (16:02):

in the alley a while and I come.
Speaker 4 (16:08):

Speaker 6 (16:10):

Speaker 4 (16:18):
Sure, that's right?
Speaker 3 (16:20):

Speaker 4 (16:24):
May some people care about me?
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Oh? He just talk and most cares about your pedal?
Speaker 6 (16:30):
Tell me he means some of the boys who was
here when he came back with his busted guitar? Marshal,
I just told him out, sorry, there wasn't so.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
Okay, Sam, I guess I can't beat the truth out
of him myself. Who cares about Tyler Short?
Speaker 6 (17:04):

There's a law against murder, Sam, And it's the same
for everybody. And I'll be back later. What you gonna do?
Speaker 6 (17:29):
Now?
Speaker 4 (17:30):
What you're doing?
Speaker 3 (17:31):
And I've done all I can. Chester, the whole town, just
plain quick talking. Nobody knows anything. I reckon.
Speaker 5 (17:37):
They're all protaking penal, they are.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
But he didn't do it. And if I could prove
who did at Chester, I'd have him in jail. You
know it. Chester, Come over here a minute, Al, I declare.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
It looks to me like he's leaving town.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Yeah, I told him he could go. He looks funnier.
And there on that whole one eared new Dodge treated
bumble pretty rough. It sure did.
Speaker 5 (18:16):
Onefulla.
Speaker 6 (18:18):
It was kind of empty like that a guitar, don'ty.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
And maybe he'll find another one somewhere anyway. They sure
like to hear him play in this time, Sam, I
figure a couple of the other boys on the take it. Yeah,
they liked it just fine.
