The Sun Shines Bright Page #5

You need a young man

for a job like that, Ashby.

You need ME!

No...you got business with ME.

What business?

You and I are goin'

to the harness room.

We're gonna pick out

a pair of buggy-whips...

..and I'm gonna see if I can whip the dirt

outta that filthy mouth of yours.

Maybe his friend wanna

come along with him...

Maybe they got

a few more snickers.

Buck Ramsey!

If you ain't out of town

in 5 minutes...

...I'll deputise myself

and make a citizen's arrest.

Now get back to the Tornado District

where you belong...

Now get going!

Uncle Plez...go on home.

And you profligate seed

of a noble line...

What right have you or anybody else

to take the law in their hands?

- I'm sorry, Judge.

- Sorry?!

Don't you know that we here in Fairfield

have a secret to keep?

And you try to lick a bully...

and start all the tongues waggin' again.

I'm sorry Judge, but when I heard

he was talkin' about Lucy Lee...

He was telling the truth!

And you can't kill truth

with a buggy-whip.

- The truth? You mean about Lucy Lee's...

- Yes!

Didn't you know that General Fairfield's son

was killed by a river gambler...

...in a fight over Lucy Lee's mother?

The matter's closed.

Now get your clothes on

and go home.

Go on!

There's a hack right here ma'am, that'll take you

anywhere you want to go.

Hack right here, ma'am.

Take you anywhere you want to go in town

for 2 bits.

White lady lookin' for lodgin'...

better go this way.

Thank you kindly...

I know this town.

Here, let me take your bag, ma'am...

No, no...thank you...

Just tell where you want to go...

I'm going to Mallie Cramp's.

And you'd better run along

like a good little boy.

Zack!

Dr Lake's...quick.

Got a sick woman here, Doc.

- Very sick.

- Bring her right in.

My bag's in the hall, Ashby.

I'm sorry sir...

but I just HAD to bring her here.

Is there any place I wouldn't go,

to visit the sick?

She stumbled off the freight-boat

from Cincinnati..

Wanted to go to Mallie Cramp's.

But I'm afraid nothing 'll help her along.

My baby...

I want to see my baby...

Lucy Lee.

Where's Lucy Lee?

I'm sorry, Dr Lake...

I didn't know.

I thought I heard somebody calling me.

Now...take me to Mallie Cramp's.

Jeff!

I declare, that last keg of whisky you got,

don't set well on my stomach.

I don't know why, Judge...

I got it from the same moonshinin' gentleman

where I got it before.

Well maybe they aren't sproutin' the grains

in a cool barn.

Sure ain't the kinda corn squeezes

that my stomach is used to.

Here comes Dr Lake.

Get rid of the jug...

Keep the glass.

What's the trouble?

Somebody came back to town...

Collapsed on the way to Mallie Cramp's.
