Marshall is the trouble Brandon.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
They say we got no legal right to this place, Sarah,
I didn't register the deed or some fool thing.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
No, now, don't you worry. It ain't nobody gonna move
us off Flora Nola.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
It's a court order. I ain't wore a gun since
I got married, Marshall, but I can sure go put
one on Brandon now, Sarah, you you can't forget your permits,
especially now you can't.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
It's all the more reason for fighting, Sarah. W We're
gonna have a child, Marshall most any day now. Oh,
and we ain't moving, We ain't starting over.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
If we have to, we can do it.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
I'd rather die than see you go to fighting again, Brendan,
now you think of it.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
She surely don't make it easy on me, Marshall.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
What he gonna do? Take mm it's a hard thing
for a man like me to swallow. But I can't
go against her, and I ain't putting one of my gun.
Why don't you go out and tell her that? And
when'll I tell her? We gotta get off the place.
There's no hurry. Now what about that immediate eviction? I'll
(05:38):
be responsible for that, Okay. I guess I ought to
be grateful to you. No, no, not take not to me?
Good way, goodbye Marshall, Chester Hill, Bye.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Geek my dinger min there. I thought he was gonna
make trouble. Sure yuh, when I canna put him off
much doing?
Speaker 1 (06:06):
I'm going out with a witchitar Chester. I'll find out
there your wife, I lout, Judge Marshall's doing? What are
(06:43):
you doing?
Speaker 3 (06:43):
And what you thought?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
I came to see you?
Speaker 3 (06:45):
And so.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Now as you know I was in here, I've uh
before I found your last time, Judge, Uh, I would
drink I like it's about that court order or something
which court ordered Marshall to the victor Brandon Teak of
his land near Wagon On. Oh god, yeah, I remember
what's trouble?
Speaker 3 (07:09):
She putting up a fight?
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Now, No, he isn't. Uh, he sure must have changed.
I remember a Teak around here. He was a wild
when he's married now, Judge, they are expecting a child
any day. Child. I had told him that I could
take their time about moving. Take there a time. That
(07:30):
order was the victim at once, Marshal. I know that,
m Marshal Dillon. There's no room for his sentiment. And
the law was right? Is right? Was Legal's legal? Dick's
(07:52):
been on that land over a year, Judge. How come
this business about failing to register as deed just came
up and was only recently brought to my and who
brought it to your attention? To East Sprague? Not that
it makes any difference. Least Sprague ons a lot of
line around Wagon Mountain, and he's filed on this piece too.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
There's nothing irregular.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
About a Marshall, cause that's what you're thinking. Legally, I'm
sure everything's correct, Judge, but but I just guess it
isn't my kind of law. That's all there's only one
kind of law the way you see it. Maybe you
can't argue with facts. Marshall, Now stop being a sentimental fool.
(08:32):
Go do your duty. Well, Judge, Brandon takes a change. Man.
He's done more than prove up that land. He's proved
himself up to Homestead Act eighteen sixty two, paragraphs twelve.
After one year of the deed to such land it
is not duly recorded it, then you never mind, Judge.
I know how it reads, and start acting like it.
(08:54):
I can hold even the US Marshal and contempt the court.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
You know.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Yeah, sure, I know You've got a lot of power, Judge,
of just one thing wrong.
Speaker 5 (09:03):
What's that.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
You never learned how to use it?
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Marshall, Dylan, I wanna talk to you, Sprague, come in,
Come in. How do you know? I was in esterday?
Speaker 1 (09:47):
I found out it's uh about Brandon Teak.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
Something wrong.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
No, not legally, Judge Rambo made that pretty clear.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
You wanna tell me what's bothering you? Marshall?
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Yeah, sure, I think Brandon Tick deserves that land more
than you do.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Marshall.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
I'm in the land and cattle business. I'm making up
mighty well. No man, can accuse me of ever doing
anything illegal. They're dishonest. But everybody knows I practice sharp.
I'll go on practice and sharp too, even against a
man like Take who's hung up his gun and steal
down and try to make a life for him and
his family.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
What do you mean his family?
Speaker 1 (10:35):
And there's a child coming any day now, and he's
better off in town, Marshalls. But my wife stayed in
the country. That's why I lost her. What looks to
me like I'm doing Teak a favor. He got an
awful easy conscience. Sprague. Oh, there's no use arguing, Marshall.
(10:56):
You got your order, Now you go put 'em off.
Not a Sprague. I'm not gonna gonna do it.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
What.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
I couldn't hold my head up if I had any
part of the kind of law you and Judge Ramble want.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
You mean that?
Speaker 5 (11:11):
See?
Speaker 1 (11:12):
I mean that? Well.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
I ain't gonna let you stand in my way. Marshall,
you're in for troubles.
Speaker 6 (11:41):
Brandon Teek and his mus both talking that Polyonymous done.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Uh you recognize him Chester, I'm.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
Sure I don't.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
He's a stranger me.
Speaker 6 (11:57):
I'll say, you just ain't got no black It looks
like I'll head up over something doing it. Yeah, mister
Carton to be standing out in the eave at ay
that way.
Speaker 5 (12:05):
Let Marshall do and settle this.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Haley got nothing to do with it no more.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
That's the trouble here. I take, I'll do much.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
You told me there was no hurry about our leave
in Marshall.

Speaker 5 (12:25):
Well?
Speaker 2 (12:25):
I took the train to Dodge and then rented me
a horse. I had some men, Haley. Judge Rambo sent me.
I guess he felt the law needed a little enforcing
down this way.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
He's got a court order of Marshall, just like the
one you had, plumb legal.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
I want you people pack up to be out of
here about tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (12:44):

Speaker 2 (13:10):
Gone and hurt her. Marshal flinging her off like that.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Chester, that's fair.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Jump on your horse and ride for dodge. Tell doctor
to get out here fast.
Speaker 4 (13:41):

be responsible for that, Okay. I guess I ought to
be grateful to you. No, no, not take not to me?
Good way, goodbye Marshall, Chester Hill, Bye.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Geek my dinger min there. I thought he was gonna
make trouble. Sure yuh, when I canna put him off
much doing?
Speaker 1 (06:06):
I'm going out with a witchitar Chester. I'll find out
there your wife, I lout, Judge Marshall's doing? What are
(06:43):
you doing?
Speaker 3 (06:43):
And what you thought?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
I came to see you?
Speaker 3 (06:45):
And so.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Now as you know I was in here, I've uh
before I found your last time, Judge, Uh, I would
drink I like it's about that court order or something
which court ordered Marshall to the victor Brandon Teak of
his land near Wagon On. Oh god, yeah, I remember
what's trouble?
Speaker 3 (07:09):
She putting up a fight?
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Now, No, he isn't. Uh, he sure must have changed.
I remember a Teak around here. He was a wild
when he's married now, Judge, they are expecting a child
any day. Child. I had told him that I could
take their time about moving. Take there a time. That
(07:30):
order was the victim at once, Marshal. I know that,
m Marshal Dillon. There's no room for his sentiment. And
the law was right? Is right? Was Legal's legal? Dick's
(07:52):
been on that land over a year, Judge. How come
this business about failing to register as deed just came
up and was only recently brought to my and who
brought it to your attention? To East Sprague? Not that
it makes any difference. Least Sprague ons a lot of
line around Wagon Mountain, and he's filed on this piece too.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
There's nothing irregular.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
About a Marshall, cause that's what you're thinking. Legally, I'm
sure everything's correct, Judge, but but I just guess it
isn't my kind of law. That's all there's only one
kind of law the way you see it. Maybe you
can't argue with facts. Marshall, Now stop being a sentimental fool.
(08:32):
Go do your duty. Well, Judge, Brandon takes a change. Man.
He's done more than prove up that land. He's proved
himself up to Homestead Act eighteen sixty two, paragraphs twelve.
After one year of the deed to such land it
is not duly recorded it, then you never mind, Judge.
I know how it reads, and start acting like it.
(08:54):
I can hold even the US Marshal and contempt the court.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
You know.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Yeah, sure, I know You've got a lot of power, Judge,
of just one thing wrong.
Speaker 5 (09:03):
What's that.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
You never learned how to use it?
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Marshall, Dylan, I wanna talk to you, Sprague, come in,
Come in. How do you know? I was in esterday?
Speaker 1 (09:47):
I found out it's uh about Brandon Teak.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
Something wrong.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
No, not legally, Judge Rambo made that pretty clear.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
You wanna tell me what's bothering you? Marshall?
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Yeah, sure, I think Brandon Tick deserves that land more
than you do.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Marshall.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
I'm in the land and cattle business. I'm making up
mighty well. No man, can accuse me of ever doing
anything illegal. They're dishonest. But everybody knows I practice sharp.
I'll go on practice and sharp too, even against a
man like Take who's hung up his gun and steal
down and try to make a life for him and
his family.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
What do you mean his family?
Speaker 1 (10:35):
And there's a child coming any day now, and he's
better off in town, Marshalls. But my wife stayed in
the country. That's why I lost her. What looks to
me like I'm doing Teak a favor. He got an
awful easy conscience. Sprague. Oh, there's no use arguing, Marshall.
(10:56):
You got your order, Now you go put 'em off.
Not a Sprague. I'm not gonna gonna do it.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
What.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
I couldn't hold my head up if I had any
part of the kind of law you and Judge Ramble want.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
You mean that?
Speaker 5 (11:11):
See?
Speaker 1 (11:12):
I mean that? Well.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
I ain't gonna let you stand in my way. Marshall,
you're in for troubles.
Speaker 6 (11:41):
Brandon Teek and his mus both talking that Polyonymous done.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Uh you recognize him Chester, I'm.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
Sure I don't.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
He's a stranger me.
Speaker 6 (11:57):
I'll say, you just ain't got no black It looks
like I'll head up over something doing it. Yeah, mister
Carton to be standing out in the eave at ay
that way.
Speaker 5 (12:05):
Let Marshall do and settle this.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Haley got nothing to do with it no more.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
That's the trouble here. I take, I'll do much.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
You told me there was no hurry about our leave
in Marshall.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Wait a minute, but you got that badge? Mister who
are you? And Jim Haley? Marshall deputy sheriff from which? Uh?
Which guitar? How'd you get here?
Speaker 5 (12:25):
Well?
Speaker 2 (12:25):
I took the train to Dodge and then rented me
a horse. I had some men, Haley. Judge Rambo sent me.
I guess he felt the law needed a little enforcing
down this way.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
He's got a court order of Marshall, just like the
one you had, plumb legal.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
I want you people pack up to be out of
here about tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
That's a minute of Heavi.
Speaker 5 (12:45):
I can take care of Marshall.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
Know Brandon, there'll be no fighting.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Now, Sarah. I you ain't gonna do nothing except move
take and right now. No, I don't here, Hella. I
got his Conchester and she she hurt cheek. I'll be
all right. Well huh she only grabbed his arm and
(13:10):
he he's.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Gone and hurt her. Marshal flinging her off like that.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Chester, that's fair.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Jump on your horse and ride for dodge. Tell doctor
to get out here fast.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Oh my eight, Doc never coming.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Out of that house was doing.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
It's been a long time, as h She shouldn't have
grabbed me, but I didn't mean to hurt her. You
just keep quiet, Heally, nobody wants.

Speaker 5 (14:13):
There was a chance of saving the baby. It's her.

Now, mad, and I'm good for that anyway, Doctor, Kay, Doctor,
tell you, Marshall. Yeah, I'm sorry to hear it. Teake,
I'm sorry too, but you can't blame me for it, Haley.
I just now promised my wife I wouldn't kill you,
and don't make me break it. Come on, Helly, I'm
(14:39):
gonna take you and the dodge with me.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
I look here.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Ain't you forgetting I'm a long man too, or I'd
like to forget it. It doesn't make me very proud
of being one. I come here to do a job,
and I'm gonna do it soon as his wife can
be moved.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Of course, now this is all over, there's no reason
for waiting long.

I promised her.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
I wouldn't kill you now, Hayley, But you come back here,
