Speaker 1 (00:11):
Sometimes it takes you years to get to know a guy.
Sometimes on the highway patrols, you learn all about a
man in ten minutes, Like the night Craig Hollister checked.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Me out on my new piet.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Fallsh over here. I didn't answer.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
I was too busy sweating the grade.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
The wheel was easy in my hands.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Too easy, like it always is on a click highway.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
My headlights caught the rain and cleeked planning down from
the past with steamy inside the patrol far Hollister wiped
the mists off the windshield. I thought of loosening my collar,
but I didn't want to make a bad impression on Hollister.
He didn't look like a police academy officer, but he
didn't talk much.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
So I couldn't tell.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
I knew he was a good.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Patrolmans they told me at headquarters.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Good patrolman goes by the book.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
I decided I'd leave my collar button. I wipe my
hands one at a time, changed my.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Grip on the wheel. Tis coming up.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
I don't see why they need us on this road.
Drivers be nuts to go over thirty people's feet anywhere.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
This gurn called Milly's Horse pay and it's slicking the
ring fum.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Poor kids here in the station wagon. I have to
the last storm over the lesson who who is Milly?
She went over the clip and a marbel see five
years ago, two sixty years old. Kill us dollars, scratch
the devil kill coming up.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Mm.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
We've got three footalities here this winter. I don't know
if I'm gonna like this beat something as bad. Once
you get used to the pluck.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
You actually kicked speeds on this hower.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
So I met my money. She was speed the year
of pudding.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Butcher.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
This is three one two two great. So when you're called.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Debian baller to pick me up at headquarters, okay.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
You're gonna get down every pore she does. I like
her to take around me.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
If your old relics, you could break your eyes at Joel. Yeah,
waffle slick up here. Sell her to take it easy
on the grave. I just out, Ah, this was pretty good.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
You wanted your wife to meet you. You gave the
dispatch of call on the radio.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
That was something they hadn't taught.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Me at the academy.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I had a hunch it wasn't exactly standard either. Maybe
working out here in the stick that have its point
if you didn't end up at the bottom of a
canyon some night chewing on a piston ring.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Or if your wife didn't go nuts feeding the chipmunk. Ah, sure,
if she doesn't try to break the record getting the headquarter.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
That's a night you say you caught her speeding here.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
That's how I met her.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
She had stretch at the bun on the grave, and
I remember it.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
If you park off the road and the ranger can
stop the speeders coming down, I try to get him
before they hit the real grade and slabble themselves.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
That's where you met your wife.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Yeah, she was rolling down the hill with a corner
full of ponies swumming back from her body. Schweizer was
giving on his estate, all of them right to the.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Eyeballs, including you, white, I thought, so I wrote it
up that way, and then what happened.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Probably Golly Judge thought otherwise. Debbie cried, and her old
man said he wanted to treat it just like anybody else,
even if he had just give them a county a
new library. So the duds decided. She never had a
drink in her life. Wasn't a dry eye in the courthouse?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Hm?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
You married her best thing I ever did. I think
you sake, you'll marry, don't yous? You wipe them like the.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
Mountains wherever I am.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
She likes his wine. It's kind of longing for a woman.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Bobby says, well, here, here's the place I was going
here about. Pull over, pull over him, wait here and
follow it up. Why while she still brothers.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Was very too fast, but me back of her. She'll
take it easy.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Oh, I pulled over a course, even if I was
quitting time. He was a boss, and if he wanted
a baby his wife down the.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Grade, that was okay with me.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
I was tired, and I could have used a cup.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Of coffee back at headquarters, and I was trying to
get my wife moved into her cabin. But the man
said pull over and wait.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
So I pulled over and waited.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
I even open him a cigarette to show there were
no hard feelings. And he shook his head, and the
flare of my match I could see was squinting up
the road. His face was tired, some of the roughness
was gone.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
The joker was worried.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
He caught me looking and seeming kind of ashamed to.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
Go along in the middle. Sure, you know, I can't
follow her everywhere, you know, in a hurry or something.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
No, No, it's just layings because.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
I'm getting a transfer thereby and I be out of
these moments next week.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
She's a good driver, but it slipped.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
To me so so you was the sure Han's died.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
And that's those headlights. I twisted around in my seat
half a mile at the grade of Paarl's headlights stabbed
over the pluff in the hang there and they went
back to the road, joking like when somebody's really flawboarding
the accelerator. And then there was a straight stretch where
the light swayed like the guy was kidding.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
I was to grip my shoulder and the lights straight.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Now I've got brighter and brighter and further apart.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
The guy was practically flying.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Oh, he smoked, that's not your right. There's this smo and.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
She's still a little well, but she look crazy. I
was to a dig and I'm a little older than me.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
She didn't look like he could move very fast, but
he was nothing but a blur jumping out of that car.
It was around the hood and swinging a flashlight and
circles before I could even turn on my red light.
The crazy headlight seemed to reach out at him.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
Okay, house there, Yeah, let's take him.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Holy God, but you have not guard. He must be
fuss over the years.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Get a tag the light.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
See there was a convertible. I thought, yeah, I got
to call her a fat him. Oh good, you gotta
be fussing her halfway off now poor to mine.

Speaker 3 (07:25):

Speaker 2 (07:25):
I says, Okay, after this curb, it's got loose for
about one hundred yards.
Speaker 3 (07:30):

Speaker 3 (07:54):
She's gonna roll that thing and that'll be all.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
That'll be all.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Guy was.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
Lighting s a turn.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
I caught a glimpse of his face and the lights
from the dash was staring at her, and he had
that child and yards there.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
I've seen his career before an attack.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
I shiven, well, where do we go from here? I
could see a play I I could see it along
in that house all day. It's why it was one
of most of the sty the hour. It would be
two ways, step.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
It up or art step it up. If we had
kind of shay, I can't do any better than you
stick with it and dry try to get the port
killer curve heavy car.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
She's gone, Craig. I was glue to it.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I was blue from the road.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
It roll.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
It's like a rest of it, a roll, a flag
of how he's going to do it.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
He didn't stop her off.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
Maybe he didn't even see us. You want me to
try to chake out here, heart and off here she
sees us.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Of course he's gonna play until her curve hang back.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Don't don't press her.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Then he did something that wasn't in the book.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
She reeked over and cut our growler.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
They switched off the red light. I started to turn.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
It back on and sell his hand on my rif
wave it a maybe we're pamming at her all right.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
If she doesn't slow down the mouth, she'll never make it.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
And then she started to turn until it's curve.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
It's easy to see she wouldn't make it.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
The robbers turn on the grave washboard, No thanks to
it at all.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Hundred foot drops of the river that below, hard enough.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
To make on a dry day, but on a wet
night murder.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
The tail light hesitated for a second, like they'll make
up their minds whether to run into the hill or
over the side.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
The car split sideways rear towards the river.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
She was going over the battle.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Storm, no thing, no no light.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Put my foot off the cap. Out of the tail
of my eye, I saw Hollis to cover his face,
and then I was fighting to stay on the road myself.
Suddenly the miracle happened. She made it.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Now we had to do it.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
It bore too hard.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
That's the three one people. We're a mile north still
unable to catch the Bible. Two she's doing seventy five.
I guess just start up. We'll try the boxer, but
be careful of it.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Yes, Mark, okay, I'm now like none. Now down and nail.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
You can just say just the easier between. Its just
easier between this.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
Watch it like glass. I'll try to take her again.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
What's your bee now?
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Right? Seventy three? We're a half a mile behind you.
She's weaving.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
I'm ing down.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
No, Now she's swinging left. What's the heavy con t happy?
Be careful, Margaret, she's swinging right. Pappy, let her.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Fight, Let her fight, Let her by, How are you
going to make an old time patrolman let her drunk.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Pass him on the road. No, Pappy tried to fight it.
He tried to ease her onto the shoulder. A block
long convertible against.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
The patrol car was like a good.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Troll set a weight against an amateur heavy, all skill
and no punch. For a second, I thought he had
to run off the road a convertible alert back. The
two sets of tailights got closer, and then Tappy was
off the road over the shoulder, bouncing and rolling down
the embankment.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
I eat my foot off the accelerator train.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
That I wasn't the strategy looking at me.
Speaker 4 (11:41):
I wanted to use the brake, but on that.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Highway with him and threw it.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
And what are you doing going back's happy?
Speaker 2 (11:48):

But happy feet ya.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
This is three one two two a mile soelf of
halfway house. That's Bible two just runs droppy off the road,
then an ombulance. We're staying on her tail. This isn't
jarring gun stay high her setting up a road block
that headquarter.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
She won't get through it? Back and help happy?
Speaker 2 (12:26):
What what's kind of roadblocks? Weren't start shooting at a woman.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
If she tries to run this block, roll shoot at
it and I get back to Pappy.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Sage such that girl.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Don't worry about that girl out there.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
You get back to Pappy.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
It's Debby, Yeah, sky holicty.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Just run my best man off the road.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
That she almost get your highs coming up the lower break.
You're ever one of them.
Speaker 4 (12:59):
If we don't stop it, stop it, we have the
blaster off the rock.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
I felt sorry for the man beside me.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
I knew what was happening outside headquarters. A couple of
patrol cars rolling in the position. The spotlights pointed up
the grade. The guys growing automatic rifles, maybe shotguns.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Flaires set out spread down the hill.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
A reception committee for Craig Hollister's wife, not what he'd
planned when he'd asked her.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
To meet him at headquarters.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
But there was nothing I could do. I slowed carefully,
keep going, now, look, keeps going.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
You've heard the sargeant happy might be bleeding.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
He don't have a quarter a mile from halfway house.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
We can do as much from this weekend.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
You stray on her to you, I can't want this,
and I said, spray with her.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
You wonder Stram.
Speaker 4 (13:53):
Craig, I can't this stein.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
Watch is miss skirt. What can we do?
Speaker 4 (13:59):
We can't dip up.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
If he tries to run a barricade, that'll blow her
apart if she hang on.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
If she doesn't slow down, she won't even get to.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
The barra rut off your lights, turn off my life,
run off your life.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Once she doesn't fear, she slows down a little.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
How am I gonna see you with her lights?
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Her light?
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Fine?
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Great?
Speaker 2 (14:25):
But what if there was something coming up the grave?
Speaker 4 (14:28):
I wondered if Holister had drawn nuts. I shot a
look at him.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
He was peering ahead, and.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
He seemed to have got a hold of himself. I
didn't really think he put a gun on me, but suddenly.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
I knew I'd go along with whatever he was trying
to do, even if it cost me my bed.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
I flipped off the lights. It seemed to help.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
The car ahead lost some of its crazy fear for.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Daming slow, slow, uneasy buffet.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
Okay, usually stretch here, gaming or record went good at
she makes this turn? She still only got a mile
to the barricade.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Got a car coming, I trust them, Get.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
Over, Get over, We'll be suit you. Wow wants to
get a white frog.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Mount.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Every time I put on another mile an hour a week,
start to slide to get Polson.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
I'll never do it from here.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Close and.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
I was already pushing eighty.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
My arms and eyes ate from the stranger, and.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
The rains were still too fond unless he was aiming
for a lucky hit or another.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
It was not a catcher by the stretchers by the headquarters.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
Well, that made sense. Was the only level shoulder in
the graves. He was going to shoot out a tire
to have to be there, but that was where the
barricade was. We just had to get her the side
of it. Alister rolled down the window and I saw
a spray of rain on my finger. Suddenly I spotted
at the barricade spotlight.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
She's throwing at me. Putting on feet.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
I can't wait any longer. The rain was just too grace.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
It had to be her left rear tire. If she
went off the other way, she'd be killed, and if
the ricochet got her, should be killed anyway, but she
was just too far away. Suddenly, not really wanting to,
I jammed down the accelerator. At least I could give
him a last chance. The rear end swayed and lurched.
My hands were sweating with fear, and that did it.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
The heavy carve again, turned hesitated and headed with the
shoulders a sleep.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
When it hit the RT half turned went over.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
I spid it all the way through the roadblock.
Speaker 4 (17:06):
It took me so long to.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Get stopped and turned around with the guys from the
barricade beat us back to the crash. But it was
just as well, because without help I'd never been able
to keep Hollister from the ruins.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
From bit of road.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Hollister, where do we get around? Doctill be here in
a minute?
Speaker 3 (17:22):
I shoulder I killed it.
Speaker 4 (17:24):
We don't know yet.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Yeah, down that.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Dark it's not the Brooken leg, but the run up
the road. Yeah, it's it's.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
It seemed like an hour, but it was only a
couple of minutes before the docks scrambled out of the ditch.
The patrolman and an ambulance driver set a little by
the ambulance to other guys had Craig in their patrol car,
trying to tie him down.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
I walked over to the ambulance.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
The girl was because hurt bad, but she was alive.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
Trogian walks up. She aligns, Yeah, let's tell Holland.
Speaker 4 (18:09):
Okay to let him steer her side. Yeah, yeah, I guess,
and I started back to the the pol car and
stepped back for a.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Better convertible under the shoulder.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
A girl got out, a pretty girl, and I thought
of the kid by the ambulance who would never be
pretty again.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
And then I felt the sergeant hand in my arm.
He was staring at her.
Speaker 4 (18:35):
This is Hollister, Yager.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
What happened? That's crazy?
Speaker 4 (18:40):
What's here with you?
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Who?
Speaker 2 (18:42):
We thought?
Speaker 3 (18:44):
He? He thought?
Speaker 4 (18:45):
Oh no, she said the kid, Hey, hey, play hollist
over here.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
And I guess she figured she was old enough to
get friend to the girls and try to make the
grade on a rainy night.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Your husband saved her life, oh see, And.
Speaker 4 (19:03):
I here almost broke their next catching him had a
blasted of the piece. Well it's Craig is all right?
Look that be here's gunny, what is it you?
Speaker 3 (19:12):
I better skip it, Craig, No, no, no, you ever
know anything I want you to know.
Speaker 4 (19:19):
But the girl was you met before me?
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (19:28):

Speaker 3 (19:34):
Long term?
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Go maybe.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
A long time ago? Uh and darn was around her
when they walked away.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
But yeah, the holistair had a kind of thoughtful look
in her eyes.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
You kind of wonder at a time like that, what
two people are thinking. I turned back to the Sargeant
you okay, oh sure, yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
I will say, uh, sergeant, you know uh about us
not going back to Pappy.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
I was driving, you know.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
Yeah, I know, well, forget it.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Learned anything tonight, Yeah, I learned something.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
H
Sometimes it takes you years to get to know a guy.
Sometimes on the highway patrols, you learn all about a
man in ten minutes, Like the night Craig Hollister checked.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Me out on my new piet.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Fallsh over here. I didn't answer.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
I was too busy sweating the grade.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
The wheel was easy in my hands.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Too easy, like it always is on a click highway.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
My headlights caught the rain and cleeked planning down from
the past with steamy inside the patrol far Hollister wiped
the mists off the windshield. I thought of loosening my collar,
but I didn't want to make a bad impression on Hollister.
He didn't look like a police academy officer, but he
didn't talk much.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
So I couldn't tell.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
I knew he was a good.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Patrolmans they told me at headquarters.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Good patrolman goes by the book.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
I decided I'd leave my collar button. I wipe my
hands one at a time, changed my.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Grip on the wheel. Tis coming up.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
I don't see why they need us on this road.
Drivers be nuts to go over thirty people's feet anywhere.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
This gurn called Milly's Horse pay and it's slicking the
ring fum.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Poor kids here in the station wagon. I have to
the last storm over the lesson who who is Milly?
She went over the clip and a marbel see five
years ago, two sixty years old. Kill us dollars, scratch
the devil kill coming up.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Mm.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
We've got three footalities here this winter. I don't know
if I'm gonna like this beat something as bad. Once
you get used to the pluck.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
You actually kicked speeds on this hower.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
So I met my money. She was speed the year
of pudding.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Butcher.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
This is three one two two great. So when you're called.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Debian baller to pick me up at headquarters, okay.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
You're gonna get down every pore she does. I like
her to take around me.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
If your old relics, you could break your eyes at Joel. Yeah,
waffle slick up here. Sell her to take it easy
on the grave. I just out, Ah, this was pretty good.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
You wanted your wife to meet you. You gave the
dispatch of call on the radio.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
That was something they hadn't taught.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Me at the academy.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I had a hunch it wasn't exactly standard either. Maybe
working out here in the stick that have its point
if you didn't end up at the bottom of a
canyon some night chewing on a piston ring.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Or if your wife didn't go nuts feeding the chipmunk. Ah, sure,
if she doesn't try to break the record getting the headquarter.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
That's a night you say you caught her speeding here.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
That's how I met her.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
She had stretch at the bun on the grave, and
I remember it.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
If you park off the road and the ranger can
stop the speeders coming down, I try to get him
before they hit the real grade and slabble themselves.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
That's where you met your wife.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Yeah, she was rolling down the hill with a corner
full of ponies swumming back from her body. Schweizer was
giving on his estate, all of them right to the.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Eyeballs, including you, white, I thought, so I wrote it
up that way, and then what happened.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Probably Golly Judge thought otherwise. Debbie cried, and her old
man said he wanted to treat it just like anybody else,
even if he had just give them a county a
new library. So the duds decided. She never had a
drink in her life. Wasn't a dry eye in the courthouse?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Hm?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
You married her best thing I ever did. I think
you sake, you'll marry, don't yous? You wipe them like the.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
Mountains wherever I am.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
She likes his wine. It's kind of longing for a woman.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Bobby says, well, here, here's the place I was going
here about. Pull over, pull over him, wait here and
follow it up. Why while she still brothers.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Was very too fast, but me back of her. She'll
take it easy.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Oh, I pulled over a course, even if I was
quitting time. He was a boss, and if he wanted
a baby his wife down the.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Grade, that was okay with me.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
I was tired, and I could have used a cup.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Of coffee back at headquarters, and I was trying to
get my wife moved into her cabin. But the man
said pull over and wait.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
So I pulled over and waited.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
I even open him a cigarette to show there were
no hard feelings. And he shook his head, and the
flare of my match I could see was squinting up
the road. His face was tired, some of the roughness
was gone.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
The joker was worried.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
He caught me looking and seeming kind of ashamed to.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
Go along in the middle. Sure, you know, I can't
follow her everywhere, you know, in a hurry or something.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
No, No, it's just layings because.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
I'm getting a transfer thereby and I be out of
these moments next week.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
She's a good driver, but it slipped.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
To me so so you was the sure Han's died.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
And that's those headlights. I twisted around in my seat
half a mile at the grade of Paarl's headlights stabbed
over the pluff in the hang there and they went
back to the road, joking like when somebody's really flawboarding
the accelerator. And then there was a straight stretch where
the light swayed like the guy was kidding.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
I was to grip my shoulder and the lights straight.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Now I've got brighter and brighter and further apart.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
The guy was practically flying.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Oh, he smoked, that's not your right. There's this smo and.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
She's still a little well, but she look crazy. I
was to a dig and I'm a little older than me.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
She didn't look like he could move very fast, but
he was nothing but a blur jumping out of that car.
It was around the hood and swinging a flashlight and
circles before I could even turn on my red light.
The crazy headlight seemed to reach out at him.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
Okay, house there, Yeah, let's take him.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Holy God, but you have not guard. He must be
fuss over the years.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Get a tag the light.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
See there was a convertible. I thought, yeah, I got
to call her a fat him. Oh good, you gotta
be fussing her halfway off now poor to mine.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
This was three one foo foo two poor a convertible all.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Right, and I've got a flash of the driver, and
my heart is slipping throm with a woman driver young
blonde or.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Sage grin on a shape.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
I tuck out. I did.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
The teacher's got there a few wrecks down in the valley.
It's bad enough when a command, but a young girl.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
It'll fall two high vers is three one to two
propy worre's a suit of a possible bible two three
miles north of lapway house to the rond me down.
He's leaving all over the road.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Be careful, I'll not taking a Now.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
I say a good curve, Cry, buddy, why did you
say a guy hurt the woman?
Speaker 3 (07:25):
A woman?
Speaker 2 (07:25):
I says, Okay, after this curb, it's got loose for
about one hundred yards.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Try to get me go from a big front later
like a sign out.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
You get the number now maybe on the next we
all need the numbers.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (07:43):
I know them? You know how kind?
Speaker 3 (07:45):
It said? Be t?
Speaker 4 (07:48):
Why don't you look med? Why would you try to
run you down? She doesn't know what you doing? What
do you mean, rice, last dud?
Speaker 3 (07:54):
She's gonna roll that thing and that'll be all.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
That'll be all.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Guy was.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
Lighting s a turn.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
I caught a glimpse of his face and the lights
from the dash was staring at her, and he had
that child and yards there.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
I've seen his career before an attack.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
I shiven, well, where do we go from here? I
could see a play I I could see it along
in that house all day. It's why it was one
of most of the sty the hour. It would be
two ways, step.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
It up or art step it up. If we had
kind of shay, I can't do any better than you
stick with it and dry try to get the port
killer curve heavy car.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
She's gone, Craig. I was glue to it.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I was blue from the road.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
It roll.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
It's like a rest of it, a roll, a flag
of how he's going to do it.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
He didn't stop her off.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
Maybe he didn't even see us. You want me to
try to chake out here, heart and off here she
sees us.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Of course he's gonna play until her curve hang back.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Don't don't press her.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Then he did something that wasn't in the book.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
She reeked over and cut our growler.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
They switched off the red light. I started to turn.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
It back on and sell his hand on my rif
wave it a maybe we're pamming at her all right.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
If she doesn't slow down the mouth, she'll never make it.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
And then she started to turn until it's curve.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
It's easy to see she wouldn't make it.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
The robbers turn on the grave washboard, No thanks to
it at all.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Hundred foot drops of the river that below, hard enough.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
To make on a dry day, but on a wet
night murder.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
The tail light hesitated for a second, like they'll make
up their minds whether to run into the hill or
over the side.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
The car split sideways rear towards the river.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
She was going over the battle.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Storm, no thing, no no light.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Put my foot off the cap. Out of the tail
of my eye, I saw Hollis to cover his face,
and then I was fighting to stay on the road myself.
Suddenly the miracle happened. She made it.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Now we had to do it.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
It bore too hard.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
That's the three one people. We're a mile north still
unable to catch the Bible. Two she's doing seventy five.
I guess just start up. We'll try the boxer, but
be careful of it.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Yes, Mark, okay, I'm now like none. Now down and nail.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
You can just say just the easier between. Its just
easier between this.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
Watch it like glass. I'll try to take her again.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
What's your bee now?
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Right? Seventy three? We're a half a mile behind you.
She's weaving.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
I'm ing down.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
No, Now she's swinging left. What's the heavy con t happy?
Be careful, Margaret, she's swinging right. Pappy, let her.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Fight, Let her fight, Let her by, How are you
going to make an old time patrolman let her drunk.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Pass him on the road. No, Pappy tried to fight it.
He tried to ease her onto the shoulder. A block
long convertible against.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
The patrol car was like a good.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Troll set a weight against an amateur heavy, all skill
and no punch. For a second, I thought he had
to run off the road a convertible alert back. The
two sets of tailights got closer, and then Tappy was
off the road over the shoulder, bouncing and rolling down
the embankment.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
I eat my foot off the accelerator train.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
That I wasn't the strategy looking at me.
Speaker 4 (11:41):
I wanted to use the brake, but on that.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Highway with him and threw it.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
And what are you doing going back's happy?
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Throw it? The fact of their stoppers just off the road, firs.
We gotta get back on our trails.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
You off your rocket all stoppers wi white and.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
I don't want her bill stay on earth sail?
Speaker 4 (11:59):
What by I that stay with her?
Speaker 2 (12:01):
I'm still running good suit.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
But happy feet ya.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
This is three one two two a mile soelf of
halfway house. That's Bible two just runs droppy off the road,
then an ombulance. We're staying on her tail. This isn't
jarring gun stay high her setting up a road block
that headquarter.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
She won't get through it? Back and help happy?
Speaker 2 (12:26):
What what's kind of roadblocks? Weren't start shooting at a woman.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
If she tries to run this block, roll shoot at
it and I get back to Pappy.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Sage such that girl.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Don't worry about that girl out there.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
You get back to Pappy.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
It's Debby, Yeah, sky holicty.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Just run my best man off the road.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
That she almost get your highs coming up the lower break.
You're ever one of them.
Speaker 4 (12:59):
If we don't stop it, stop it, we have the
blaster off the rock.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
I felt sorry for the man beside me.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
I knew what was happening outside headquarters. A couple of
patrol cars rolling in the position. The spotlights pointed up
the grade. The guys growing automatic rifles, maybe shotguns.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Flaires set out spread down the hill.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
A reception committee for Craig Hollister's wife, not what he'd
planned when he'd asked her.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
To meet him at headquarters.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
But there was nothing I could do. I slowed carefully,
keep going, now, look, keeps going.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
You've heard the sargeant happy might be bleeding.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
He don't have a quarter a mile from halfway house.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
We can do as much from this weekend.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
You stray on her to you, I can't want this,
and I said, spray with her.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
You wonder Stram.
Speaker 4 (13:53):
Craig, I can't this stein.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
Watch is miss skirt. What can we do?
Speaker 4 (13:59):
We can't dip up.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
If he tries to run a barricade, that'll blow her
apart if she hang on.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
If she doesn't slow down, she won't even get to.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
The barra rut off your lights, turn off my life,
run off your life.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Once she doesn't fear, she slows down a little.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
How am I gonna see you with her lights?
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Her light?
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Fine?
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Great?
Speaker 2 (14:25):
But what if there was something coming up the grave?
Speaker 4 (14:28):
I wondered if Holister had drawn nuts. I shot a
look at him.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
He was peering ahead, and.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
He seemed to have got a hold of himself. I
didn't really think he put a gun on me, but suddenly.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
I knew I'd go along with whatever he was trying
to do, even if it cost me my bed.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
I flipped off the lights. It seemed to help.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
The car ahead lost some of its crazy fear for.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Daming slow, slow, uneasy buffet.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
Okay, usually stretch here, gaming or record went good at
she makes this turn? She still only got a mile
to the barricade.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Got a car coming, I trust them, Get.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
Over, Get over, We'll be suit you. Wow wants to
get a white frog.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Mount.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Every time I put on another mile an hour a week,
start to slide to get Polson.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
I'll never do it from here.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Close and.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
I was already pushing eighty.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
My arms and eyes ate from the stranger, and.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
The rains were still too fond unless he was aiming
for a lucky hit or another.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
It was not a catcher by the stretchers by the headquarters.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
Well, that made sense. Was the only level shoulder in
the graves. He was going to shoot out a tire
to have to be there, but that was where the
barricade was. We just had to get her the side
of it. Alister rolled down the window and I saw
a spray of rain on my finger. Suddenly I spotted
at the barricade spotlight.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
She's throwing at me. Putting on feet.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
I can't wait any longer. The rain was just too grace.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
It had to be her left rear tire. If she
went off the other way, she'd be killed, and if
the ricochet got her, should be killed anyway, but she
was just too far away. Suddenly, not really wanting to,
I jammed down the accelerator. At least I could give
him a last chance. The rear end swayed and lurched.
My hands were sweating with fear, and that did it.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
The heavy carve again, turned hesitated and headed with the
shoulders a sleep.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
When it hit the RT half turned went over.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
I spid it all the way through the roadblock.
Speaker 4 (17:06):
It took me so long to.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Get stopped and turned around with the guys from the
barricade beat us back to the crash. But it was
just as well, because without help I'd never been able
to keep Hollister from the ruins.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
From bit of road.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Hollister, where do we get around? Doctill be here in
a minute?
Speaker 3 (17:22):
I shoulder I killed it.
Speaker 4 (17:24):
We don't know yet.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Yeah, down that.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Dark it's not the Brooken leg, but the run up
the road. Yeah, it's it's.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
It seemed like an hour, but it was only a
couple of minutes before the docks scrambled out of the ditch.
The patrolman and an ambulance driver set a little by
the ambulance to other guys had Craig in their patrol car,
trying to tie him down.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
I walked over to the ambulance.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
The girl was because hurt bad, but she was alive.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
Trogian walks up. She aligns, Yeah, let's tell Holland.
Speaker 4 (18:09):
Okay to let him steer her side. Yeah, yeah, I guess,
and I started back to the the pol car and
stepped back for a.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Better convertible under the shoulder.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
A girl got out, a pretty girl, and I thought
of the kid by the ambulance who would never be
pretty again.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
And then I felt the sergeant hand in my arm.
He was staring at her.
Speaker 4 (18:35):
This is Hollister, Yager.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
What happened? That's crazy?
Speaker 4 (18:40):
What's here with you?
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Who?
Speaker 2 (18:42):
We thought?
Speaker 3 (18:44):
He? He thought?
Speaker 4 (18:45):
Oh no, she said the kid, Hey, hey, play hollist
over here.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
And I guess she figured she was old enough to
get friend to the girls and try to make the
grade on a rainy night.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Your husband saved her life, oh see, And.
Speaker 4 (19:03):
I here almost broke their next catching him had a
blasted of the piece. Well it's Craig is all right?
Look that be here's gunny, what is it you?
Speaker 3 (19:12):
I better skip it, Craig, No, no, no, you ever
know anything I want you to know.
Speaker 4 (19:19):
But the girl was you met before me?
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (19:28):
I see, and it could have been couldn't have.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
Long term?
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Go maybe.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
A long time ago? Uh and darn was around her
when they walked away.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
But yeah, the holistair had a kind of thoughtful look
in her eyes.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
You kind of wonder at a time like that, what
two people are thinking. I turned back to the Sargeant
you okay, oh sure, yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
I will say, uh, sergeant, you know uh about us
not going back to Pappy.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
