gentlemen you'll be needing a new

sheriff I'm through

this job has brought me the greatest

sorrow a man can ever know I've killed

my best friend you were only doing your

duty Higgins why take it so to heart and

duty makes it necessary to take the life

of a man like old Dan Matthews with duty

well levers positive proof that he was

one of the gang Clem here saw him tires

horse behind Wells Fargo the evidence is

too strongly against circumstantial

evidence has convicted many a man Dixon

can I still believe that Dan Matthews is

innocent I'd like to see you at the

office mr. Williams

I'll be right over John Williams I guess

you get your old job back well my eyes

are not as good hands or not as fast but

I'll take the job and so you can get a

better man

sit down head I'd like to explain

something when Dan Matthews left here

he'd just drawn all these money out of

the bank they're gonna restock his ranch

and get it in shape for his daughter

who's coming out this next year this

money was on Dan when I found it I wish

you'd see that his daughter gets it it's

rightfully hers

ever know thanks I've been about of

years and chickens left town now I'm

about six months ago town cashing in

some nuggets he turned desert rat you

like it he's like a dead man walking

around with the weight of the world in

this heart what about Dan's daughter hey

out that you are not only a bandit and a

robber but a murderer as well you killed

my father you can't deny it the whole

town knows I'm not trying to deny that

but won't you let me explain explain I

wouldn't believe anything you said

the lazy M she's sure uh swell-looking

yow

to slick with them horses in that South

pasture oh that is news making a quick
