I've got some news for you, Laura. Yeah, yeah, there's
a man here looking for you. Oh who. His name's
Philip Locke, Philip Dodge. I figured it might be bad news.
Speaker 9 (06:08):
He can't have him find me here.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Hell, he went to the schoolhouse first, and I told
him you'd probably moved on. But uh, he still thinks
you're here somewhere. Well, I wrote mother, I was teaching
in school.
Speaker 9 (06:22):
Must have gone to see her.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Honey, if you don't want to see him, you don't
have to.
Speaker 9 (06:25):
I can't see him. I can't have him know I
work in the saloon. It's nothing to be ashamed of.
Speaker 10 (06:31):
Yes, yes, it is.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Especially now what do you mean, Well?
Speaker 2 (06:38):

family found out that my father.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Had been a riverboat captain.
Speaker 9 (06:47):

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Anyway, they called off the wedding, and I was so
ashamed I ran away.
Speaker 9 (06:55):
I came out here. Finally.
Speaker 10 (06:56):
What about Philip?
Speaker 1 (06:57):
What did he do the It's a very aristocratic family, kitty,
because he had to do what they wanted.
Speaker 10 (07:05):
Not much of a man if you ask me, aristocrat
or not?
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Oh, lovely, I think he was with me?
Speaker 10 (07:14):
Are you sed to?
Speaker 7 (07:16):

Speaker 2 (07:21):
This is a sort of life they said I was
best suited bo.
Speaker 9 (07:23):
He'd go back and tell my mother and it break
her heart.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Look, Laura, you could go out to mar Rilay's until
he leaves Tom. I'm sure she'd be glad for a
little company with a.
Speaker 9 (07:34):
Good idea that. Come on, honey, we can ride out together.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
It's only a few miles, all right, Kitty, Thank you.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Matt, you might kind of spook this Philip lock back
to Philadelphia.
Speaker 11 (07:47):
Well, I'll try, Kitty.
Speaker 10 (08:14):
I know that's mighty warm beer for a Nichol. Well
I paid for the beer, I know, and I thank.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
You, Chester, But I hate to see you not get
your money for it.
Speaker 10 (08:25):
Oh, I'll get it, and you decide it's time to
buy us a beer?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Is it about time?

Is Laura still out at the Riley Place.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Here shining away from the problem document? Anyway? Yeah, she's there.
Lac isn't likely to leave town this soon. I saw
him last night and I told him that I had
heard that Laura had gone to Denver.
Speaker 10 (08:48):
Did he believe you? Kind?
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I think so? But I warned Sam to something the
same thing in case she came snooping around here.
Speaker 10 (08:54):
Oh well, said Star, poor girl, she's better off without
like him, asked me. Women strange they fall in love,
And I said, I sometimes wonder if it has anything
at all to do with a particular man.
Speaker 7 (09:08):
Of course it has not.
Speaker 10 (09:10):
I remember what a little Kyle girl told me one time.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
She said Chester. She said, I didn't know you spoke
Kyle or Chester.
Speaker 7 (09:17):
Well, I don't exactly. We use an assigned language.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Kindly, you know, Hello, Lock Marshall, I think you lied
to me about Laura. How's that's su Most certainly is
there's something mighty strange going on here, and I think
you're mixed up in Look, maybe Laura doesn't want to
see you. Have you thought of that?
Speaker 7 (09:43):
I'm going to see her if I have to kill
you to.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Do it, kill me right. You ain't even wearing a gun, mister,
I don't have to. What do you mean, mister luck,
I've hired and will shoot anybody, I say, for five
hundred dollars. Philadelphia must be quite a town. You have
(10:08):
twenty four hours to produce him, Marshall. Remember I'm a
man of my word. Yeah, I'm sure you aren't.
Speaker 7 (10:22):
Well.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Of all, he's probably one of those who hired somebody
to fight on the war for him. Dockets all.
Speaker 8 (10:29):
He knows he's looking, don't.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
We're talking to the bar. But Pete dool So that's

No.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
I always took Pete him to be a little off,

Dulham might do. He isn't like other men and that
makes him really dangerous. Hello man, Okay, down, thank you.

I saw her this morning, man, But she didn't say.
Speaker 1 (11:31):

Speaker 1 (05:42):
I asked Sam.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Downstairs the wonder he told you.
Speaker 7 (05:46):
I think Sam's sweet on law. Oh, kitty, kitty, why
do you ever do this.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Look, you two can gossip about all that later. Right now,
I've got some news for you, Laura. Yeah, yeah, there's
a man here looking for you. Oh who. His name's
Philip Locke, Philip Dodge. I figured it might be bad news.
Speaker 9 (06:08):
He can't have him find me here.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Hell, he went to the schoolhouse first, and I told
him you'd probably moved on. But uh, he still thinks
you're here somewhere. Well, I wrote mother, I was teaching
in school.
Speaker 9 (06:22):
Must have gone to see her.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Honey, if you don't want to see him, you don't
have to.
Speaker 9 (06:25):
I can't see him. I can't have him know I
work in the saloon. It's nothing to be ashamed of.
Speaker 10 (06:31):
Yes, yes, it is.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Especially now what do you mean, Well?
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I was engaged to Philip once before I left Philadelphia.
Speaker 9 (06:41):
You were we were about to be married when his
family found out that my father.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Had been a riverboat captain.
Speaker 9 (06:47):
She told him before. I guess.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Anyway, they called off the wedding, and I was so
ashamed I ran away.
Speaker 9 (06:55):
I came out here. Finally.
Speaker 10 (06:56):
What about Philip?
Speaker 1 (06:57):
What did he do the It's a very aristocratic family, kitty,
because he had to do what they wanted.
Speaker 10 (07:05):
Not much of a man if you ask me, aristocrat
or not?
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Oh, lovely, I think he was with me?
Speaker 10 (07:14):
Are you sed to?
Speaker 7 (07:16):
I don't know?
Speaker 9 (07:17):
How can I know? You mustn't find me here?
Speaker 2 (07:21):
This is a sort of life they said I was
best suited bo.
Speaker 9 (07:23):
He'd go back and tell my mother and it break
her heart.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Look, Laura, you could go out to mar Rilay's until
he leaves Tom. I'm sure she'd be glad for a
little company with a.
Speaker 9 (07:34):
Good idea that. Come on, honey, we can ride out together.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
It's only a few miles, all right, Kitty, Thank you.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Matt, you might kind of spook this Philip lock back
to Philadelphia.
Speaker 11 (07:47):
Well, I'll try, Kitty.
Speaker 10 (08:14):
I know that's mighty warm beer for a Nichol. Well
I paid for the beer, I know, and I thank.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
You, Chester, But I hate to see you not get
your money for it.
Speaker 10 (08:25):
Oh, I'll get it, and you decide it's time to
buy us a beer?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Is it about time?
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Though?
Speaker 7 (08:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Yes, he'll tell me. Man.
Speaker 10 (08:32):
Is Laura still out at the Riley Place.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Here shining away from the problem document? Anyway? Yeah, she's there.
Lac isn't likely to leave town this soon. I saw
him last night and I told him that I had
heard that Laura had gone to Denver.
Speaker 10 (08:48):
Did he believe you? Kind?
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I think so? But I warned Sam to something the
same thing in case she came snooping around here.
Speaker 10 (08:54):
Oh well, said Star, poor girl, she's better off without
like him, asked me. Women strange they fall in love,
And I said, I sometimes wonder if it has anything
at all to do with a particular man.
Speaker 7 (09:08):
Of course it has not.
Speaker 10 (09:10):
I remember what a little Kyle girl told me one time.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
She said Chester. She said, I didn't know you spoke
Kyle or Chester.
Speaker 7 (09:17):
Well, I don't exactly. We use an assigned language.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Kindly, you know, Hello, Lock Marshall, I think you lied
to me about Laura. How's that's su Most certainly is
there's something mighty strange going on here, and I think
you're mixed up in Look, maybe Laura doesn't want to
see you. Have you thought of that?
Speaker 7 (09:43):
I'm going to see her if I have to kill
you to.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Do it, kill me right. You ain't even wearing a gun, mister,
I don't have to. What do you mean, mister luck,
I've hired and will shoot anybody, I say, for five
hundred dollars. Philadelphia must be quite a town. You have
(10:08):
twenty four hours to produce him, Marshall. Remember I'm a
man of my word. Yeah, I'm sure you aren't.
Speaker 7 (10:22):
Well.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Of all, he's probably one of those who hired somebody
to fight on the war for him. Dockets all.
Speaker 8 (10:29):
He knows he's looking, don't.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
We're talking to the bar. But Pete dool So that's
his gum. He looks like it.
Speaker 10 (10:40):
I've all even good drunken crooking.
Speaker 7 (10:43):
He ain't even much of a gunman.
Speaker 6 (10:45):
No.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
I always took Pete him to be a little off,
and they hear he is doc. You never know what
Dulham might do. He isn't like other men and that
makes him really dangerous. Hello man, Okay, down, thank you.
(11:26):
Do you talk to Laura again?
Speaker 9 (11:28):
I saw her this morning, man, But she didn't say.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
That she can't stay at that boarding house forever. Locke
hasn't shown any signs of leaving. Maybe she ought to
go on the Peblo or Santa Fe or someplace for
a while.
Speaker 9 (11:41):
Give her time.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Okay, Oh you do, Marshall. Now what is it, Sime?
Speaker 9 (11:47):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Going off back? Both of you? Oh what fork? Well,
you'll see going go on? I got to take care
of the bar.
Speaker 7 (11:54):
The same must be drunk.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
No, he's sober. No, I come on, let's have a look,
all right, But I still say he's drunk.
Speaker 9 (12:03):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Sam doesn't drink his own liquor.
Speaker 9 (12:04):
Get it.
Speaker 7 (12:05):
I don't blame him.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
I wish I didn't have to sit, don't.
Speaker 9 (12:09):

Speaker 10 (12:41):
Honey?
Speaker 2 (12:42):
There's any other way to do it?
Speaker 9 (12:44):
So? What came here? Because he wants me back? I
won't like to him?
Speaker 1 (12:49):
