Wyatt Earp's Revenge Page #4

---

- Did you have an idea where to look?

- I had ideas.

Men as notorious as the Kenedy

brothers couldn't just go anywhere.

But as it turned out, Spike had come

upon a little cabin up in the pineys.

They were kind folk

just trying to do a kind thing.

They didn't know a snake

was at the door.

- Howdy.

- Howdy, mister.

Where you headed?

Heading south, end of this road.

Ain't nothing for miles.

What's your name, son?

Connie. What's yours?

- Name's Jim.

- You know, he's right.

It's about 10 miles to town.

Be dark before you got there.

Ten miles, huh?

That is pretty far.

Been riding all day

and my horse is pretty tired. You...

Maybe a place around here

I could set up camp?

It gets pretty cold here at night.

More than welcome to stay with us

if you'd like. Be happy to have you.

I don't really think that we can.

I mean...

No, I couldn't.

I wouldn't wanna intrude on y'all.

Oh, no, you're not intruding.

Look, a man needs some supper.

Much obliged, ma'am.

- You wanna go grab this man's horse?

- Yeah.

Here you go.

Name's Whisky.

Go on.

- What's your name?

- Jim. My name's Jim.

Jim, nice to meet you. I'm Ed.

You met my boy Connie

and that's my wife Susie.

She's a mighty fine cook

so you'll be well taken care of tonight.

Again, I appreciate it, Ed.

Looked pretty good

throwing that baseball.

Thank you.

Those are real, mister?

We don't allow guns

in the house, Jim.

I hope you understand.

I understand.

Saddlebags be all right?

Yeah, be just fine.

Be a nice meal waiting for you

when you get back.

Mr. Jim's our houseguest. You're not

gonna go bothering him, understand?

- Yes, sir.

- Connie, guns are dangerous.

You understand?

Okay. Go help your mother.

He's putting the guns away.

I just don't understand

why he has to stay.

Why can't he leave after supper?

It's our Christian duty.

It's not the well-off that needs help,

it's Jim.

There's just something about him.

Supper's just about ready, Jim.

Sit down.

Very Christian of you, Ed.

But you stayed on the pursuit.

Did you not say you had some idea

where he was?

Bill was an expert. But by day's end,

we hadn't caught up with him.

Bill had his trail.

Just a matter of time,

but time was running out.

We wouldn't give up. Not allow that.

What is it, Bill? You see anything?

Must've made camp.

Too smart to light a fire too.

Running these horses into the ground

isn't gonna do us any good.

We ought to make camp ourselves.

We'll get him in the morning.

Connie, Ed, dinner's ready.

Dad, can I sit by Mr. Jim?

Oh, that's fine, son.

- Thank you, ma'am.

- Oh, man, that looks good.

Thank you.

Shall we say grace?

Hon, maybe Mr. Jim
