Man Without a Star Page #3

You're mighty anxious with that gun.

Now I'm going to give

you a chance to use it.

Go ahead.

Make your play.

Alright boys, relax, both of you.

You fixing to kill my deputy?

Sheriff, this man of yours

is real gun crazy man when

he faces up a boy without a gun,

but somehow he ain't so anxious

when he meets a man who has one.

- She's telling you the truth.

- I know, it's a habit of hers.

You get on back to the office,

I wanna have a talk with you.

Here's your 50, if you haven't

got a job, get out of town.

- He's got a job.

- Where? In the Triangle?

Why not?

Strap is real partial to Texas men.

I'd rather have him with

me than against me.

Me too. Come on, sheriff,

step up and have a drink.

How about you, son,

got yourself a job?

Have I, mister?

I'm from Texas.

- What part of Texas?

- Down the Texas river.

Real pretty country on the

Texas river, I've been there.

Now he's my partner, Strap.

I can't work without him.

Okay, you're on.

$ 30 a month and found.

Let's all have a drink, everybody!

Lot's of whiskey and sarsaparilla.

Last time I'm gray wolf and

tonight's my night to howl.

He'll never get that saddle up...

Sarsaparilla!

Stay away from whiskey,

you will no regrets in the morning.

That is what the man said,

and them words of wisdom.

Don't give me no trouble, Texan,

it's the sarsaparilla that done it.

All these cattle

belong to the Triangle?

- All these and 8,000 more just like 'em.

- Gosh almighty.

Let's go, Demp.

Put them in there.

Hey Demp.

Last night a fella told me

to stay away from whiskey,

and have no regrets in the morning.

Them still words of

wisdom, believe me.

Let's eat, I'm hungry.

So is he, and he comes first.

Get over, boy.

Come and get it!

Hey, did Strap say that...?

- It's in the house?

- That's what he said.

Hey Strap.

- When do I get to see it?

- After we eat.

Inside the house, I wonder what

kind of people live back East.

What, ain't this

good enough for you?

Emma like said he'll look at my

pony, I think he dropped a shoe.

- A couple of new hands, men.

- You'll be sorry!

You got no manners!

I ain't took yet.

You could have

spoke without hitting.

What do you think you're...?

Stand up!

- Why you little...

- Do that outside.

All right.

Oh no, you don't!

Eat it or leave it, sit down!

- 2 dollars says Lodagal comes in first.

- You got a bet.

Any other big spreads

like this around here?

No, Cassidy, Toliver Johnson,

They run a thousand head or less.

They're up north on Little River.

- Real nice country, eh.

- You gonna see more of it tomorrow.

We got a small herd up there.

I want you drive them

over towards Blue Lake.
