The trouble with Marian, she been mixing in things

that are none of her business and I'm stopping her

Go on! Get goin'!

Don't feel badly, Marian.

He didn't mean it.

You know, sheep'll

make any good cattleman edgy.

Thank you, Joe. Cigars in

the back. Thanks, Murray.

Hi, Murray.

Hello, Bob.

Hello, Murray.

Hey, George.

Hi there. Hiya, Chief.

What's been keeping ya?

Hello, Murray. How's Smitty?

Doing fine. Just his arm was nicked.

- The doc said it was mostly exhaustion.

- Oh, that's great.

- Why don't you drive back with me and see for

yourself? - That's a deal.

- Is all that equipment back from Frenchman's

Flats? - Just checking in now.

Good. Hey, out in the buckboard,

fellas, there's a whole mess of cigars.

The crate's a bit mashed,

but the smokes are fine. Help yourself.

Thanks a lot, Chief.

Thanks, Murray. Thanks.

Don't thank me. Thank the

insurance company. Hey,

you'd better get your report in

to McCloud.

- He's been yelling his head off.

- Let him yell.

- Good morning. - Well, come on in, McCloud.

Save me a trip to your office.

I suppose you want that report.

Yes.

As a matter of fact, I was rather

expecting it day before yesterday.

Oh, you did? Well, I've

had a sick man on my hands.

Smith. Yes, I know.

Here it is. And it's all there,

unless you'd like it in violet ink.

No, Sinclair. All I'm

interested in is its accuracy.

And hereafter, I shall expect these

reports immediately you come off a wreck.

Get your hat and coat

and let's go.

Rebstock, huh?

Yeah.

Four-X. That's his brand.

Hello, Barney! Hi, Whitey!

Well, hello, Murray.

If this ain't something, huh?

And old Bill Dansing.

How're ya, Bill?

Hello, Rebstock.

You remember Whitey Du Sang.

Yeah. I know him.

- You going to town?

- Oh, just shipping another bunch of cattle.

Say, what's this I hear about Whispering

Smith? Got himself shot up or something, huh?

Yeah.

Pretty bad, huh?

No, no, no, no.

Nothing at all.

Oh, uh.

Well, I'll be seeing ya.

Say, why don't you take a ride out to

Williams Canyon some night for a hand of poker?

Been a long time since me and the

boys seen any of that railroad money.

Yeah, I'll do that, Barney.

Well, so long. So long, Whitey.

Giddyap.

Fine.

What's the matter with you, Bill?

I don't like your friends, Murray...

Rebstock, Du Sang.

I know that Whitey. He's as

cruel as a soft-nosed bullet.

He'd shoot a dying man

just to see him squirm.

He's a beauty.

Did Murray raise him?

No. He's a present from

Barney Rebstock. Rebstock?

You remember him.

Yeah. I remember him.

Quite a spread Murray has

here. He's very proud of it.

I'll bet he is.

Luke?

Yes?

It's just a woman's curiosity,
