that $1,000 that you gave me is in a united states mailbag on board that stagecoach that just left town. and about that long trek to trinidad, colorado, trip really isn't necessary anymore. you see, i'm shawnee bill. ( laughs ) hold it. s, 6'1", about 210 pounds. ah, william poe, alias bill poe, alias shawnee bill. well, you got a funny sense of humor. i figured a gambler like yourself would appreciate it. oh, you can put that up. look, randall, you bet into a hand that's a little too big for you this time. we're not through playing yet. of course you're going to take me in to colorado and turn me in, but i think you'd best consider that 170 miles is quite a long ways. yes, but you can't carry a dead man far across rough country like that. now, look, why don't you save us both needless wear and tear on the flesh? take your licking. just mark it up to profit and loss. only your loss. i'll get you back, and i'll get that reward. that is if we both get to colorado together. for $1,000, i'll take you to hades. now get on your animal. i might at that. hyah! hyah! that's the third time we've
