we've got to get her to leave. She's disrupted the whole ranch. We'll
just have to give this young ladya taste of the real wild West and

(15:54):
that will send her hopping back toHollywood in a hurry. You do that,
I'll think about it first. I'dlike to find now what this smith
man's going to do with the rattlers. He want things pulled out so they

ment this Raymond to pretend to holdus up, you see, have him
