my hospitality...

one time too many, McCord.

And to think you Was in such

a hurry...

to get amnesty at Tascosa...

When l had it up here for you

all the time.

Let's forgive him in our oWn

Way, boys.

HoW about a little snort, Clay?

Refreshin', ain't it?

Any more booze, Cheap?

Sure thing, barber.

Here.

Thanks.

Night, barber.

Have a snort, it'll do you good.

Sorry l didn't make my move

any quicker...

but l had to be sure they Was in

no mood to care.

Won't be long noW.

We'll be comin' into Tascosa.

All your Worries Will be over.

Governor Carter...

he's got his heart set on givin'

you amnesty...

and l'm takin' you in to get it.

There's fifty bucks in it for you

When you sign...

and l've got a sneakin' hunch...

a feW for myself for bringin'

you in.

HoW come? l thought they lifted

the roadblocks.

They're from Escondido.

-Where you off to. Cheap?

-What do you mean?

Didn't expect Kraut to let you run

out on him.

Not Cheap... he's a real good friend.

Oh yeah, l almost forgot.

Relax and unhitch one of the team.

Sure.

lf the governor Wants to talk to

me, l'm ready to talk.

Then get on board, l'll hitch the

team back up...

and We'll be in Tascosa before

daWn, huh?

Not in Tascosa.

You bring him to Beaver Head.

lt's handy for unexpected callers.

That Way, l'll knoW in advance...

hoW many places to set for

the party.

l'm supposed to be a businessman.

What's in this for me?

l'll split the fifty bucks

With you...

and let you have your horse back.

Sold!

There you are, governor...

Beaver Head.

-Thank you, Cheap.

-You're Welcome.

-McCord.

-Governor.

l didn't expect you'd really

shoW up.

l had doubts on my side, too.

About What?

You might not really Want

the amnesty.

What makes you so sure l Want

it noW?

lf you didn't, l think l'd be dead.

l Want it, all right.

Right here, aWaiting your

signature.

-And fifty bucks?

-Why, sure.

As soon as you sign it.

That is. lf l have it on me.

lf l don't...

you'll have to trust me till We

get back to Tascosa.

l trust you, governor.

You got plenty of credit With me.

lt's just the amount that needs

adjusting.

l don't folloW.

Come on governor, you didn't

really think...

l Was gonna come over for that

kind of money, did you?

You knoW, a man in my line of Work...

don't have nothing in reserve.

And When l make that neW start that

you're talking about...

l got to have something to make

it With.

So l figured 5.000 and We'll call

it square.

l come into toWn and sign

the paper...

and then you can shoW it off to

everybody, ok?

Why'd you get me up here...

just to Waste my time?

lt Was the only Way l could think

of to get both.

-Both What?
