- Right.

Go get everybody.

Where are you fellows from?

Prairie Cattle Company.

- Didn't know they got this far.

- They bought 60,000 in Mexico.

- They sent us to drive them in.

- You won't be staying?

No, just long enough to have a drink.

Alex Potter!

I told you he had rheumatism!

Anyway, he sold his horse.

He can use one of my horses!

Suspicious old goat.

- Where's Alex Potter?

- Sleeping it off.

I don't think he wants to leave

town with us here.

Scatter across the border.

We'll meet in Nogales tonight.

- What's holding up the boss?

- Don't worry, he'll be along.

He can handle that hick posse

single-handed.

Come on.

Didn't I see you some place?

Did you?

Yeah, did you ever...?

Did you ever work in Cheyenne?

- El Paso?

- No.

Did you ever work in the

Blind Irishman in Dodge City?

Yeah, I sang there.

Best time I ever had in my life.

What made you quit?

I got to coughing too much.

Doctor said I should breathe dry air.

You sure come to the right place here.

I spent more money in that place...

Did you remember a girl,

her name was...

...Pauline?

- A heavyset girl.

- And Velvet? Remember her?

I spent 300 in one night on her.

Remember, they had

real Paris dresses there.

Real Paris perfume.

You have to treat a woman right.

I'd have spent every cent on her

except she married the governor.

Many young fellows around this place?

No, they're all older.

You must get lonely.

Hey! Where are they?

Where'd they go?

Alex!

That way.

- Ain't you gonna help catch him?

- Wish I could.

- How'd they look?

- It'll be easy.

Three big men on three white horses.

Three white fellas

on three big horses, huh?

- Ever sing anymore?

- Who's there to sing for?

You know, you look kind of skinny.

I feel skinny.

I don't mind a skinny girl.

Just so she has blue eyes

to make up for it.

You got blue eyes?

Brown.

It's all right.

They don't have to be blue.

Must be they buried their man here.

If I had my way,

there'd be more than one.

Hello, you the marshal?

You see the Butterfield coach?

- This is Mr. Butterfield.

- They got a gold shipment.

- See where they went?

- Bisbee.

We just come from Bisbee.

Didn't you see an outfit? Must have

been 12, all on dark horses.

You didn't see them?

Yeah, we seen them.

Then they left.

Cy, you'd better go along,

hitch up the coach down there.

- We think it was Ben Wade.

- What do you know?

There I was, face

to face with Ben Wade.

Hi, marshal.

Did you catch them yet?

- Them were the fellas back in Bisbee.

- Yeah?

One of them is still there.

He went into the saloon.

You been drinking

this morning or not?

I never touch a drop until noon.
