Speaker 4 (05:19):
I just heard about it this morning. Uh, Preacher, we
are in the valley of the shadow of death.
Speaker 6 (05:25):
Marshall Dylan, No, let you're all through here now.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
I didn't hear about any murder outside of Job here.
Speaker 7 (05:45):
Where was this shooting? Marshall It wasn't a shooting, It
was a luncheon. I just buried my brother, Marshall. Billy
Saxton shot him in the back. Aren't you used him?
Speaker 3 (05:57):
The word murder a little loose around here.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
Only the law can hang a man without it being murdered.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Can the loss too slow? Sometime?
Speaker 7 (06:04):
You know something about the All I say is that
he shot my brother and he deserved hanging.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
Hanging Maybe Lynchon's a different matter.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
What difference did make got what was coming to him?
Speaker 4 (06:15):
He had a fair trial coming to him like any
man for example. Can I'll try to see that you
get one. Well, if you're guilty of leading that lynch party,
we'll say it. Odd Marshal, you're accusing me. I got
no evidence and.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
You won't get me. Where is the man in the
country who stands still for bush Wagon? Saxton got is
due and that's that?
Speaker 4 (06:39):
Maybe? Sorry, Come on, Pitcher, let's bury him.
Speaker 6 (06:44):
Whoso sheddeth man's blood by man, shall his blood be shed?
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Genesis nine? Shape show me the great marshals.
Speaker 9 (07:06):
Why don't you just arrest cam Powell? Mister Dillon, Hey, he.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Wanted met anything Chester and I can't find a witness.
Speaker 9 (07:12):
Must be somebody who talk.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
Cam's a bigger man than ever now with Job that
the others don't want to cross him.
Speaker 9 (07:18):
M he owns a lot of land, alright.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
And Job also want a piece of the bank. Cam'll
get that now. Ranchers always need money, so they won't talk.
Speaker 9 (07:28):
Yes, And maybe they're ashamed too, mister Dillon. Yeah, maybe
I saw Lynchin once and not a man there could
look in the eye for a long time afterwards.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
You weren't in on it, Green Tester, Oh my gracious.
Speaker 9 (07:43):
No, mister Dillon. I was just a small boy that
was back in Waco. They hung a cousin of mine there.
Oh why well, else, it's kind of hard to explain.
He was about as honest to fellas I ever knew,
outside of some loose notions about other people's cattle. But
mister Dillon, I did don't leave that struck him as stealing.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Why not?
Speaker 9 (08:05):
Well, because there wasn't anything personal about it, if you
know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
Well I don't, but maybe you can explain it to me.
Speaker 9 (08:14):
Well, sir ch just that there was all those cattle
running loose on the plains, and I guess they seemed
like a natural part of the landscape to him, he
figured anybody could own him.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Your cousin wasn't very bright, was he, Chester.
Speaker 9 (08:28):
I didn't know him well enough to say, mister Dillon.
But anyway, they shouldn't have lynched him.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Now now they shouldn't live. And nobody's gonna get by
with lunching around Dodge if I have anything to do
with it, No, sir. I heard Billy Saxton was at
the Texas Trail last night. Maybe I can start there.
Speaker 9 (08:48):
He sure must have hated job to kill him like that,
mister Dillon.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Yeah, I'll be back later.
Speaker 10 (08:54):

Why wasn't You're wrong?
Speaker 4 (09:31):

Speaker 3 (10:17):
Where was he from?
Speaker 4 (10:18):
I never heard of him around here before.
Speaker 11 (10:21):
It was a cody somewhere. It was just this kind
old punch and looking for a job. Oh no, more
a gunman than I am.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
Uh, you can't be sure kidding? He said he'd ever
been in Texas.
Speaker 11 (10:34):
Nepols come from Texas, didn't they g really? So they
never mentioned Texas one way or the other.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
What'd he talk about?
Speaker 10 (10:42):
Horses?
Speaker 11 (10:43):
Mostly how he'd like to have a little spread at
his own some day.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
And a woman.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
I see, and they talk nice about him.
Speaker 11 (10:56):
He wasn't like these hard cases around here for anything else.
Cam Powell was in this morning, told me not to
talk about Billy bestly to you?
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Oh now, what'd you say?
Speaker 11 (11:11):
I told him I'm not afraid of him, but maybe
you are? So why didn't he want you? Him talking
to me.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
That pleasing?
Speaker 11 (11:21):
I also told him if I was a man, I'd
kill him.
Speaker 4 (11:26):

Speaker 11 (11:29):
I don't know one thing though, righte Stewart tending him
less nice musta been afterwards he sat over there on
that corner and got drunk all by himself, real junk,
not like that. No, but maybe he was in on
it and couldn't stand himself afterwards. Maybe that's why you
had to get drunk.

I'll go see him.
Speaker 11 (11:51):
Anyone who was there be in trouble too, wouldn't they master?

and if I can prove it, I don't have enough
for murder.

better schools build a stronger America. Now, the second act

Speaker 4 (15:50):
Well if you decided what you're gonna do about it,
I uh, I don't know, Mushall, I just don't know.

slip out of tune with that boy, and.
Speaker 10 (16:56):
Cam hung him on.

That little tree about a half mile down the road.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
I know I cut him down, and the cook and

Speaker 6 (17:04):

when you run out back and get it off my mind.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
Nobody ever even looked at the boy's gun see if
it had been fired. Came just hung him on the
cook's word for it.

How long's he been around?
Speaker 8 (18:57):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (18:57):
About a week?
Speaker 9 (18:58):

to be very.
Speaker 4 (19:02):
Willing easy now, it doesn't matter. I doubt if he'll
be around for a long Why not you.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
I'm guessing that he will be wanting to get out
of dodge fast after you let it drop, real.
Speaker 4 (19:11):
Casual like mine that I've ridden out to arrest Cam Powell.
Speaker 9 (19:15):
Is that so you gonna bring Cam in tonight, Miss Dinny?

Speaker 4 (19:28):
You happen to know where Hank rooms the Dodge has,
Miss Jenny, And it's pretty fancy for a cook. And
yes see, alright, you go to supper about six o'clock

his things at the dodge hospite seven.
Speaker 9 (19:43):
Alright, mister John.

arrest him for in the first place, Oh, let's say,
uh suspicion. Suspicion of what well, uh drunkenness. He wasn't

You're late for the burial, Marshall All. I was out
at Fort Dodge last night.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
I just heard about it this morning. Uh, Preacher, we
are in the valley of the shadow of death.
Speaker 6 (05:25):
Marshall Dylan, No, let you're all through here now.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
I wonder if you'd read a few prayers over another man.
We got him in a grave just over the hillway.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
Another man man is barn into trouble at his parks.
Fly up with Joe five seven?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Who was this man?
Speaker 6 (05:39):
Marshall?
Speaker 4 (05:39):
How did I he was murdered last night?
Speaker 3 (05:42):
I didn't hear about any murder outside of Job here.
Speaker 7 (05:45):
Where was this shooting? Marshall It wasn't a shooting, It
was a luncheon. I just buried my brother, Marshall. Billy
Saxton shot him in the back. Aren't you used him?
Speaker 3 (05:57):
The word murder a little loose around here.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
Only the law can hang a man without it being murdered.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Can the loss too slow? Sometime?
Speaker 7 (06:04):
You know something about the All I say is that
he shot my brother and he deserved hanging.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
Hanging Maybe Lynchon's a different matter.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
What difference did make got what was coming to him?
Speaker 4 (06:15):
He had a fair trial coming to him like any
man for example. Can I'll try to see that you
get one. Well, if you're guilty of leading that lynch party,
we'll say it. Odd Marshal, you're accusing me. I got
no evidence and.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
You won't get me. Where is the man in the
country who stands still for bush Wagon? Saxton got is
due and that's that?
Speaker 4 (06:39):
Maybe? Sorry, Come on, Pitcher, let's bury him.
Speaker 6 (06:44):
Whoso sheddeth man's blood by man, shall his blood be shed?
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Genesis nine? Shape show me the great marshals.
Speaker 9 (07:06):
Why don't you just arrest cam Powell? Mister Dillon, Hey, he.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Wanted met anything Chester and I can't find a witness.
Speaker 9 (07:12):
Must be somebody who talk.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
Cam's a bigger man than ever now with Job that
the others don't want to cross him.
Speaker 9 (07:18):
M he owns a lot of land, alright.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
And Job also want a piece of the bank. Cam'll
get that now. Ranchers always need money, so they won't talk.
Speaker 9 (07:28):
Yes, And maybe they're ashamed too, mister Dillon. Yeah, maybe
I saw Lynchin once and not a man there could
look in the eye for a long time afterwards.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
You weren't in on it, Green Tester, Oh my gracious.
Speaker 9 (07:43):
No, mister Dillon. I was just a small boy that
was back in Waco. They hung a cousin of mine there.
Oh why well, else, it's kind of hard to explain.
He was about as honest to fellas I ever knew,
outside of some loose notions about other people's cattle. But
mister Dillon, I did don't leave that struck him as stealing.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Why not?
Speaker 9 (08:05):
Well, because there wasn't anything personal about it, if you
know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
Well I don't, but maybe you can explain it to me.
Speaker 9 (08:14):
Well, sir ch just that there was all those cattle
running loose on the plains, and I guess they seemed
like a natural part of the landscape to him, he
figured anybody could own him.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Your cousin wasn't very bright, was he, Chester.
Speaker 9 (08:28):
I didn't know him well enough to say, mister Dillon.
But anyway, they shouldn't have lynched him.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Now now they shouldn't live. And nobody's gonna get by
with lunching around Dodge if I have anything to do
with it, No, sir. I heard Billy Saxton was at
the Texas Trail last night. Maybe I can start there.
Speaker 9 (08:48):
He sure must have hated job to kill him like that,
mister Dillon.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Yeah, I'll be back later.
Speaker 10 (08:54):
Chester as mister Dillon, Hello, Kitty, Hello, I.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Can remember when you'd give me a smile much the matter.
Someone been bothering you.
Speaker 11 (09:25):
You might put it that way. Well you last night matched,
Why wasn't You're wrong?
Speaker 4 (09:31):
Yeah? Chester and I rode out the Fort Dodge on business.
It was late, so we slept there. I thought this
time could go one night without trouble.
Speaker 11 (09:39):
You sure thought wrong, didn't you?
Speaker 4 (09:40):
You upset about the lynchers.
Speaker 11 (09:42):
That's it, aren't you.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
I heard Billy sax don't spend some time in here yesterday.
Speaker 11 (09:49):
I hate man. I think they're also savage big.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
The worse if it weren't for the law, kitty.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Now tell me about Saxon.
Speaker 11 (09:57):
He could tell you himself matter if you hadn't picked
the last night, might to wander out.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
Of town a kitty.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
This didn't like you?
Speaker 11 (10:06):
Mm hun, sorry, man. He seemed like such a nice kid.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Where was he from?
Speaker 4 (10:18):
I never heard of him around here before.
Speaker 11 (10:21):
It was a cody somewhere. It was just this kind
old punch and looking for a job. Oh no, more
a gunman than I am.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
Uh, you can't be sure kidding? He said he'd ever
been in Texas.
Speaker 11 (10:34):
Nepols come from Texas, didn't they g really? So they
never mentioned Texas one way or the other.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
What'd he talk about?
Speaker 10 (10:42):
Horses?
Speaker 11 (10:43):
Mostly how he'd like to have a little spread at
his own some day.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
And a woman.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
I see, and they talk nice about him.
Speaker 11 (10:56):
He wasn't like these hard cases around here for anything else.
Cam Powell was in this morning, told me not to
talk about Billy bestly to you?
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Oh now, what'd you say?
Speaker 11 (11:11):
I told him I'm not afraid of him, but maybe
you are? So why didn't he want you? Him talking
to me.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
That pleasing?
Speaker 11 (11:21):
I also told him if I was a man, I'd
kill him.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
Who else was in on a kiddy.
Speaker 11 (11:29):
I don't know one thing though, righte Stewart tending him
less nice musta been afterwards he sat over there on
that corner and got drunk all by himself, real junk,
not like that. No, but maybe he was in on
it and couldn't stand himself afterwards. Maybe that's why you
had to get drunk.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
I'll go see him.
Speaker 11 (11:51):
Anyone who was there be in trouble too, wouldn't they master?
Speaker 4 (11:54):
Yeah, And if a feeling cam really had it, best thing,
and if I can prove it, I don't have enough
for murder.
Speaker 11 (12:03):
Uh, I'll keep my ears open.
Speaker 3 (12:05):

Speaker 4 (12:07):

man who can lie with much conviction.
Speaker 9 (12:13):
Good luckness.

Speaker 4 (15:50):
Well if you decided what you're gonna do about it,

slip out of tune with that boy, and.
Speaker 10 (16:56):
Cam hung him on.

That little tree about a half mile down the road.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
I know I cut him down, and the cook and

when you run out back and get it off my mind.

Nobody ever even looked at the boy's gun see if
it had been fired. Came just hung him on the
cook's word for it.
