Fort Dobbs Page #6

---

Yes, ma'am?

The sheriff told me

what happened in Largo.

Did he?

You must have loved her very much.

I've been wrong all along,

and I'm sorry.

There's something the sheriff

didn't tell you.

That man, the one I killed,

before he died he told me

how it was with her.

I was the only one in

Largo who didn't know.

She was no good.

The trouble is that I had to

kill a man to find that out.

What are you gonna do?

That night, alone, if can I get

to Santa Fe and get help.

But they'll kill you.

I'll try.

Please don't do it.

It's the only thing I can do.

I thought it over.

It's the only chance we got.

He is right, Ms. Grey.

Are you gonna let him go?

Anybody can get through the dark.

Fetch up a couple of wagons,

and send them out empty.

We can make them think we're

trying to make a run for it.

Maybe they'll keep them busy enough

to get me across that open ground.

Right.

Gar...

Yes, ma'am?

Be careful.

I plan to.

Mr. Davis?

Good luck.

Thanks, Chad.

Are you ready?

Ready as I'll ever be.

And Sheriff, just for

that record of yours...

The day I went looking for Johanson I

didn't plan on killing him like I said,

I just figured on beating

him like he did to her.

There was a gun on the table between us

and he went for it, I had no choice.

Don't keep us waiting.

Open them up!

Move them out!

You're looking for me?

You could yourself be killed

sneaking on a man that way.

Where's that woman?

I left her in Dobbs.

And why did you do that for?

Half the people in Largo are

forted up there, they need help.

What's the matter of

all them soldiers?

The Comanches overrun them

before we got there.

They sent you out, huh?

What are they trying to do?

Save themselves of the trouble hang you?

I was going to Santa Fe, now that

I found you, I won't have to.

One more man ain't gonna do any good.

I'm not talking about one man.

I'm talking about these guns.

They ain't for sale right now.

I ain't buying.

It sounds like you

want to take them.

If I have to.

Gar, you got real lucky back there.

Because I've got me a rule,

I never fight a man over a woman,

I think it ain't worth it.

But these Henrys are something else.

The Comanches are gonna be

hitting Dobbs real quick.

If we start now we can

still be back in time.

There's a lot of women

and children there.

I guess you don't understand, do you?

It's everything I got

wrapped up in them rifles.

I'm gonna sell them in Santa Fe

and I'm gonna ride out there rich.

Than I'm gonna keep clean out of

this territory for a bit long.

Now look Gar, there ain't no sense in

this going against each other like this.

If it wasn't for me, you'd be dead back there

in that canyon where the Comanches jumped you.
