02:18Even the cattle are thin, short on the range.

02:20It's got to stop.

02:21Be very sorry, me.

02:23I'll make you sorry.

02:24I'll take it out of wages.

02:27Now, get out of here.

02:30What's that?

02:32Me say, me hope stum don't keep you awake.

02:35Me hope you catch them for a dream.

02:37Oh.

02:39All right, go on.

02:48Come on.

03:18Let's go.

03:48Let's go.

04:18What are you so excited about?

04:36Let's go.

05:06What a deuce of a night to send for a fellow magpie.

05:22What do you want?

05:28Blackie said you were fencing in Cypress Springs.

05:31Yes, that's right.

05:31Funny, funny I wasn't told about it, and seeing as how the water is on my place, well, what difference

05:39does it make so long as we're going to join up our two spreads?

05:42You said I was to be the active head of the partnership.

05:45That you told Nancy and me both.

05:46Keep your daughter out of this.

05:47Here, here, come on.

05:48Get your weight off that game leg.

05:49Come on over here, sit down.

05:51It's getting awfully tender.

05:53All of a sudden, everybody's getting awful tender.

05:58That doesn't stop them from robbing me right and left.

06:00I hear.

06:01I won't stand for that kind of an insinuation from nobody, not even you, magpie.

06:06Do you want to dissolve the partnership?

06:08There isn't any partnership until the agreement is signed.

06:11I told you I was going to have Dan Freeman draw up the papers.

06:14Well, I suppose Freeman, as your attorney, objects to the deal.

06:18Freeman has nothing to do with it.

06:19It's just that I don't want anybody grabbing for the reins until the horses are hitched.

06:24Neither does Blackie.

06:25When he goes out to tally cattle, he wants to know what reins they're on.

06:28So, it's your foreman that's doing the squawking.

06:32Afraid the partnership might step on his toes.

06:34All Blackie's doing is trying to look out for my interests.

06:37Then why did he complain about the rangebusters guarding your herd from the Saddle Mountain Roundup to the stockyards?

06:42Was he afraid that he'd lose out?

06:45Or was it that he didn't want them guarded too close on their way to market?

06:49As bad as things were, I had every right to call on the rangebusters.

06:53And I think you were the one who didn't like it.

06:56Afraid you might lose out.

06:58Maybe...

06:58No.

07:00I had nothing to lose.

07:01If our deal doesn't go through, it's your funeral, magpie.

07:06Not mine.

07:07What?

07:08What happened to him, Blackie?

07:12Somebody tied in to Fang Wei.

07:15I find him coming to you down by the woodshed.

07:17What happened?

07:18Who did it, Fang Wei?

07:20Me go with a sack.

07:21Me catch a wood.

07:22Go on.

07:23Go on.

07:24Me catch a wood.

07:25Me heard someone coming.

07:27Me turn to see.

07:29Me catch a more wood on head.

07:31Whoever it was must have swatted him.

07:33Sure.

07:34That's what I said.

07:36Who was it, Fang Wei?

07:38What did he look like?

07:39Fang Wei no see face.

07:41She stars.

07:43Well, then, how was he dressed?

07:45Like that?

07:47Could be like that.

07:49Or so could not be.

07:51How about it, Fang Wei?

07:53Wasn't it more like that?

07:56Fang Wei very mixed up.

07:59Me no sorry.

14:37Why is this one?

14:43Why is it just like this?

14:46Oh!

14:47It's not what to go.

15:00Why is it? Why would it come here?

15:07Finally, what?

15:20Meeting me, maybe he go golly west.

15:26What whodunit?

15:27Me no, no.

15:29Me hit him, son.

15:30Me run to sea.

15:31Me think, me get him surf.

15:37Oh, the dog dogey got away, trailing the doggone dogey got away. On the range I've been a-riding to find that little stray. I found him in the hills a-hiding, but the doggone dogey got away.

15:52Yippee-yay, yippee-yay, oh, the doggone critter wouldn't stay. Yippee-yay, yippee-yay, oh, the doggone dogey got away. Then he lost his appetite. Something wasn't right. He'd smell greener grass up in the past when the doggone dogey got away.

16:09Yippee-yay, yippee-yay, oh, the doggone dogey got away. I was awful sad. I felt mighty bad. I'd raised him on a bottle's hands, he could fairly toddle, but the doggone dogey got away. Yippee-yay, yippee-yay, oh, the doggone dogey got away.

16:32Somebody made a mistake. You're right. They missed us.

16:39I can't spot him.

16:46I get it.

16:56Hey, there he is behind those rocks.

17:09Hey, look, Crash. There he goes.

17:14Well, that must be one of the buzzards.

17:15What the buzzards do?

17:23Back out of his mind.

17:30Let's go, Br!

17:30Well, the way he's heading, he might be making for the ranch.

18:00Everything seems quiet as a funeral, yeah, sure is.

18:12That could be the horse that out ran us, look.

18:19Time to cool off.

18:35You boys sure delivered that herd in jig time.

18:41Oh, hello, Blackie.

18:43You been out riding lately?

18:45No, why?

18:46Oh, uh, who's the horse belonged to?

18:50Belongs the coroner.

18:51He just got here a few minutes ago.

18:53The coroner?

18:54From here.

18:55Magpie got killed mysterious last night.

18:57Magpie?

18:58How?

18:59Well, who did it?

19:00I said it was mysterious.

19:04Tell me you got kind of cranky at times.

19:08Flew off the handle easy.

19:10Oh, he just liked the bluster, but it never meant a thing.

19:13That's not what his foreman claimed.

19:15Blackie Stone?

19:16Yep.

19:17Blackie, sir.

19:20You and Harper had some kind of deal of cooking, didn't you, Henderson?

19:24Well, yes.

19:26Though it was getting cold.

19:28Mm-hmm.

19:29That's what Blackie Stone says.

19:32Blackie claims that you and the old man had some pretty hot words a couple nights ago.

19:38Is that true?

19:40Well, yes, partly.

19:42We had an argument, though there was nothing heated about it.

19:46That's not what Blackie said.

19:47Oh, Blackie Stone again.

19:49He's lambasted me and everybody else that Magpie favored.

19:52Brady might lose out on something himself if any deals went through.

19:56You mean his job as foreman's?

19:58And maybe that ain't all.

20:00Magpie's cattle have been bigger and short.

20:03And maybe Blackie has been getting more than wages out of his job.

20:06That's a pretty serious insinuation to make.

20:09No more serious than the one he made about me, wanting you to believe that I murdered Magpie.

20:13Why, if I murdered anybody, Blackie would be the man.

20:16Wait a minute.

20:19One murder at a time is more than enough for me.

20:22You better keep an eye on your father, miss.

20:25All right, I will.

20:27If you'd turn out to be the murderer, Henderson, you'd have saved me a lot of extra trouble.

20:33I had my mind all set on some hungry trout over in Cow Creek.

20:43Whoop, babe.

20:52Too bad about Mr. Harper, wasn't it, Mr. Freeman?

20:55Terrible.

20:56Have they turned up any clues yet?

21:00Nothing in particular.

21:01All suspicion seems to point to Jack Henderson.

21:04Jack Henderson?

21:06Well, why Jack Henderson?

21:09I've been fighting back and forth.

21:11What's that partnership deal he had you working on?

21:15I suppose that's a dead goose now.

21:18Oh, not necessarily.

21:19Of course it will delay it.

21:21But, uh...

21:22Well, you ought to know.

21:23They had you drawing up the papers.

21:25Mm-hmm.

21:26Over the way, uh, Corrigan and King are in the house.

21:28They just got back.

21:30Well, uh, the boys made a pretty quick trip, didn't they?

21:33Yeah.

21:34Oh, uh, I'll put your horse away, Mr. Freeman.

21:37Well, that's fine.

21:38Thank you very much, Blackie.

21:40Just the same, I feel that I should have been here instead of tagging along with a herd of cattle.

21:59Oh, I wouldn't feel that way about it if I were you crash.

22:02It was because of the cattle the old man sent for you.

22:04That's right.

22:05All he was thinking about was getting that herd to market and sold.

22:08He'd have thought everything depended upon it.

22:10Oh, I have a notion that he knew what was going to happen,

22:12and he wanted to add the money from the cattle to the nest egg that he was leaving behind.

22:16There's just one thing wrong with that theory, boys.

22:18There doesn't seem to be any nest egg, and as far as I can learn, there's not a cent in the bank.

22:22Well, that's simple.

22:23Magpie didn't believe in banks.

22:25Not even their checks.

22:26That's why he wanted the money in cash.

22:28But, of course, you didn't listen to him.

22:29You've been his lawyer long enough, Freeman, to know that you always listen to Magpie.

22:33Now that there's no Magpie to object, I'm going to telegraph to Alibi myself.

22:39And I'm going to tell Alibi to leave the money on deposit in the bank.

22:42But you can't reach him, Mr. Freeman.

22:44We've already told you he'd be on his way here by now.

22:46And besides, there's nothing to worry about.

22:48As far as Alibi and that money's concerned,

22:50why anybody that tries to waylay him will be badly fooled.

22:54Fooled? But how?

22:55He's not coming directly here.

22:57He's going to take that old abandoned trail through Coyote Gulch.

23:00I still don't like it.

23:02Besides dusting myself, nobody knows anything about that old abandoned trail.

23:07That may be true.

23:09But there's somebody in this place that knows a lot more than is good for the rest of us.

23:13Well, he doesn't know. He seemingly has a way of finding out.

23:16I'm quite sure...

23:21What are you doing there?

23:22Weather, Billy Wong.

23:24Mammy, you like lemonade.

23:26Hey.

23:27How long have you been standing there?

23:28Me no stand. Me come from kitchen.

23:30Lemonade very good.

23:32You suppose he's telling the truth?

23:37Well, whether he is or not, you fellows can have the lemonade.

23:40I'm going to keep an eye on him and find out who he talks to and where he goes.

23:44This is all right. Better have some.

23:46No, thank you.

23:47What I really came out here for was to announce there'd be a reading of Hopper's will next Wednesday.

23:51Where?

23:52Here at the house.

23:53And along with the others, you might notify Nancy Henderson and her father.

23:56Well, Dusty, I've got to get back to the office now. I've got things to take care of. Goodbye.

24:00Goodbye.

24:01Goodbye, Miss Freeman.

24:08Come to think of it, I've got a little something to take care of myself.

24:15Won't you sit down?

24:18Nancy?

24:22Father's out the barn. I'll call him.

24:23Oh, no, no. Don't do that.

24:25Well, I mean, he's got work to do and no use bothering him.

24:30Well, besides, I can always talk to him later.

24:32That's right. You can, can't you?

24:35Uh-huh.

24:38You know, I was just...

24:41I'm sorry. What were you going to say?

24:43Oh, nothing. It can wait.

24:46What were you going to say?

24:49Um... I, uh...

24:53Yeah?

24:55I mean, I was, uh, just wondering, uh...

24:59Yes?

25:00Where's Crash?

25:03Crash?

25:06Crash who?

25:07You know, Crash Corrigan.

25:09Oh. Oh, him?

25:11Yes, him.

25:13Oh, Corrigan.

25:15Oh, the last time I saw Corrigan, he was, uh...

25:17He was just going out after, uh...

25:20After a certain, uh...

25:22Party.

25:23To net?

25:25No. No, a blonde.

25:27Crash is partial to blondes, you know.

25:29No, I didn't.

25:31That's too bad.

25:33Yes, isn't it?

25:35Too bad.

25:36There's a little green valley I found in a dream.

25:50A little green valley with a rippling stream.

25:56There's a little green valley I found in a dream.

26:01A little green valley with a rippling stream.

26:07The stream's running through, grass is knee deep too.

26:12In that little valley of mine.

26:16There's a little green valley I roam every day.

26:22Paradise on earth that's not far away.

26:26We'll spend our days watching cattle graze

26:32In that little green valley of mine.

26:36I could pitch a tent on the prairie,

26:41But that wouldn't do.

26:45Cause I must have something very good for you.

26:58I'll build a ramblin' house just for we two.

27:04A simple little place that we will add on to.

27:08So pack all your charms.

27:12I'll take you in my arms.

27:17To that little green valley of mine.

27:29Oh, pardon me.

27:40Oh.

27:42Dusty.

27:46What are you doing here?

27:48That works both ways, partner.

27:49What are you doing here?

27:50That's right, Crash.

27:51What are you doing here?

27:52You haven't forgotten that appointment, have you?

27:54Appointment?

27:55What appointment?

27:56What's this all about?

27:57Oh, you remember, Grace.

27:58Don't you remember?

27:59You had to see that certain party.

28:00Now you better hurry up or you'll be late.

28:01Now quit shovin'.

28:03Now what party are you talking about?

28:05Why, that little blonde is waiting for you so patiently.

28:09What? I don't know what you're talking about.

28:11The only party that I'm after is that Chinese, Fang Wei.

28:18Oh, huh?

28:19I get it.

28:20So I was going out calling on a blonde, eh?

28:22That's what Dusty says.

28:23He says you don't like brunettes.

28:25He did?

28:27Say.

28:28Well, you know.

28:29So I don't like brunettes, eh?

28:31Excuse me.

28:32I gotta be going.

28:33I just remembered something.

28:34Ah, not so fast, Cupid.

28:36You got some more remembering to do.

28:38Now didn't I tell you I was going out to keep an eye on that Chinese Fang Wei?

28:42Yeah.

28:43Come to think of it, you did, didn't you?

28:47Yes, I did.

28:48And I didn't say I was going out calling on a blonde.

28:51Come to think of it, I didn't say I didn't like brunettes either.

28:56No?

28:57Come to think of it.

29:02Well, I guess we're all straight on that now, Miss Nancy, aren't we?

29:06We sure are.

29:07Now you can go, Crash.

29:09Thanks.

29:15Oh, Eve's dropping.

29:17Excuse.

29:18Bossy say, Miss Nancy wish to hit the chicken.

29:23How could Bossy say anything about hatching chickens?

29:26Bossy did.

29:28Me very sorry.

29:29Before he go golly west, Bossy say, feed some eggs.

29:33Me put on sale.

29:35Me forgot.

29:36Very sorry.

29:37But I never said anything to Uncle Magpie about wanting eggs.

29:41Yeah, there's something fishy about this.

29:43Let me see those eggs.

29:55Why, this might mean something.

29:59Dear Nancy, why, this is to you.

30:03I may be gone before you get this.

30:05If I find my enemies closing in on me, I'll reveal a secret of utmost importance to you.

30:11The message I write will be to the Range Busters.

30:15Message to us?

30:16What message?

30:19May I see this?

30:22Why, that's Magpie's handwriting.

30:24Look here, Fangwig.

30:26Do you know anything about any message?

30:32He's no help.

30:33Leave him alone.

30:36What are you coughing for?

30:38You'd cough too if you had $10,000 shoved down your throat.

30:43I've been used for a lot of things, but this is the first time I've ever used for a bank.

30:48I guess I'm really important now.

30:51Now?

30:52If you'd always were, Elmer, you know I wouldn't take all the money in the world from you.

30:57Not even if I didn't pay $10,000 on me?

30:59Not even man.

31:00You know I love you like a son, Elmer.

31:02I didn't know you cared, Alibi.

31:04Engines, I've been scalped.

31:05That'll show you what'll happen.

31:06If I aim at your heart.

31:07All right, hand over that money.

31:08Quit monkeyin'.

31:09It's $10,000.

31:10It's $10,000.

31:11It's $10,000.

31:12It's $10,000.

31:13It's $10,000 we want.

31:1410?

31:1510?

31:16Did you think $10,000?

31:17You heard that.

31:18You heard me.

31:19You heard me.

31:20No, no.

31:21I've been scalped.

31:22I've been scalped.

31:23That'll show you what'll happen.

31:24And you can't get better.

31:25I'll end it.

31:26I'll end it.

31:27All right.

31:28Get out of your mind.

31:29Yeah.

31:30Let me make it.

31:32I'm on my mind.

31:33You have to win.

31:34I've seen it.

31:36I want you.

31:37You're out of my mind.

31:38All right.

31:39I want you.

31:40Let me make itresh out.

31:41Look, you're out of your mind.

31:42You heard what I said.

31:44Gosh, you owe him, Mark Stranger.

31:45If you put together all the money you ever dreamed of,

31:47it wouldn't make half that much.

31:49All right, you fellas.

31:50Drag him off that horse and search him.

32:03You wouldn't think if he wrote a message

32:05and expected us to find it,

32:07he'd go through a lot of trouble hiding it.

32:09Must be he didn't want anybody else to stumble on it by accident.

32:12Hold on there, Fang. What's that you've got?

32:14Me no sorry.

32:15Oh, yes, you do.

32:20Where'd you get this?

32:21Me find there on desk.

32:23When?

32:24Naiboshi. He go golly west.

32:27Me think he don't want anybody to see.

32:30Me take. Me no wish to keep.

32:33He's telling the truth there, Kreish.

32:35He was just trying to slip it on that chair.

32:37Seems like he wanted us to find it there.

32:39There's something funny about this one.

32:41Why didn't you bring this to me sooner?

32:43Me afraid. Me really much afraid.

32:45Some men can say,

32:46I'm from have no one.

32:48I'm from kill boys.

32:50That sounds reasonable, Kreish.

32:51I might have got all mixed up myself.

32:53All right, Fang.

32:54But don't you tell a soul a thing about this.

32:57Fang way savvy.

32:59Confucius say monster word, huh?

33:02No word, Don.

33:04All right, Fang.

33:05Now you go on about your business.

33:07Welly well.

33:08Welly gratitude.

33:11What do you make of it, Kreish?

33:13Oh, I don't know, Dusty.

33:15Your guess is as good as mine.

33:20Now, let me see.

33:22Well, the way I've got it figured,

33:28he was sitting here writing that note

33:30when somebody came in and shot him.

33:32Before he got to what he really wanted to say in the note.

33:34Yeah.

33:35Say,

33:37notice this X marked here?

33:41Well, so what?

33:42I don't see where that means anything.

33:43Maybe not yet.

33:45Did you notice these X's on this desk?

33:47Those are match scratches.

33:49Magpies to roots that never stay lit.

33:51Why there's scratches like that all over the house?

33:53Now you've hit on it, Kreish.

33:54Hit on what?

33:55Match scratches.

33:56There must be a trail of them leading to wherever the money's hidden.

33:58Don't you see, Kreish?

33:59The old man must have seen death coming.

34:01And all he had a chance to do is to leave some sort of a hint.

34:04So he...

34:06Your horse's saddle, Corrigan.

34:10Much obliged.

34:11I guess we'll have to hang a cowbell around that armory's neck

34:21to find out when he's going and coming.

34:23Speaking of going and coming,

34:25just where are you headed for?

34:27You know, there's no rush about seeing Nancy.

34:29Anyway, not...

34:30All right, Casanova.

34:31Just you keep that in mind.

34:33I was going out a piece to look for alibi.

34:35Well, what about him?

34:36Well, it seems like he's a little overdue.

34:39Maybe Freeman was right about people around here finding out too much.

34:49I don't know until you find him here.

34:51He'll fight off you.

34:53I don't know what you hombre would bring me here for.

35:03Keep him off, chef.

35:05And sit down.

35:07What do you want me to do with this doll?

35:21What did I tell you, Alibi?

35:22Now some some bald people think I'm either an old man or a doll.

35:25The thing's haunted.

35:28Ah.

35:32You stay here and keep your eye on him.

35:34I'll see what the boss wants to do with him.

35:41Does that thing really talk?

35:43Oh, now and then, but most times he needs a little coaxing.

35:46What kind of coaxing?

35:47Well, if you will untie my hands and put him on my lap, I might get him to Gavin right free.

35:55No, I can't do that.

35:56I can't do that.

36:26Well, what are you looking at?

36:40Nothing.

36:41From way carriers.

36:43See what happened.

36:44What do you expect to happen?

36:46We don't know.

36:47For she say, let him catch him devil.

36:49Well, devil or no devil, it's a funny place to hang a lamp.

36:53Unless Harper spent a lot of time in that closet.

36:58There's devils in there, Fang Wei.

36:59We'll keep him locked up for future reference.

37:23Take it easy, boys.

37:29Maybe that hombre we grabbed got rid of the money.

37:32And that Maverick came along to pick it up.

37:53In the end,

38:14Height!

38:16Back to the ranch.

38:46Good morning, when Dan Freeman reads the old man's will.

39:02Why do I care about wills?

39:04Cracks should have been here hours ago.

39:06When I was as young as Corrigan, and a girl as pretty as Nancy Henderson was as sweet on me as she is on him.

39:16She's sweet on Crash?

39:18What are you talking about?

39:20Well, sweet on me or not, if she was pretty and agreeable, I'd oft-time stop by for an hour or two instead of going straight home.

39:29No, that might account for Crash. But what about Alibi? He's way overdue, too.

39:33Well, his horse could have gone lame.

39:35Yeah, maybe it was Rob. He might have been murdered while we sit around here like a couple of...

39:38Now listen to me, young fella.

39:40I can sit right here and have enough murders fetched into me to drive me gray-headed without going out looking for any.

39:50The horse!

39:51What is it? What's the matter?

39:52There ain't nobody on it.

39:53Horse? What horse?

39:54Crash's. He just come loping home fetching nothing but an empty saddle.

39:58You mean to say Crash's horse came back all alone?

40:00Come on, Sheriff.

40:02Well, just as I thought, no blood anyplace. The nag just walked off and left him.

40:11Left him? Left him where?

40:12Well, when I was as young as Carrigan, and a girl was pretty as...

40:17Where are you going?

40:18First, I'm going to calm my nerves with smoke. Then I'm going home to bed.

40:23I can't be caught napping for the reading of that wheel tomorrow morning.

40:27Well, you can do what you want to. I'm going to do some scouting around myself.

40:30Fang Way said he was going to bed. That means nobody should be in the house, doesn't it?

40:36Why, yep, that's the way I reckon.

40:38I'd swear somebody in the front room just turned the lamp down.

40:42Come on, let's see.

40:43Maybe I'd better stay here and hold the horse.

40:45All right, I'll be right back.

40:47Come on, let's see.

40:48Maybe I'd better stay here and hold the horse.

40:50All right, I'll be right back.

40:52All right.

40:53All right.

40:54All right.

40:58All right.

41:11Let's go.

42:47Let's go.

42:48Let's go.

42:49Let's go.

42:50Let's go.

42:51Let's go.

42:52I don't know.

42:53Maybe an hour or two or three.

42:54An hour or two?

42:56We gotta find out what's happened to him.

42:57Let's go.

42:58But I can't.

42:59I promised to hold the horse.

43:00That horse has been broke the stand.

43:02Come on.

43:07Dusty.

43:11Dusty.

43:20Dusty!

43:22Oh, Dusty!

43:24Dusty!

43:26Oh, Dusty!

43:30Look, Cousin Harold, would you mind putting my horse up for the night

43:33and grab yourself some shut-eye while I sleep here with one eye open?

43:37Now?

43:38Yeah, now.

43:50I have to bite you.

43:54I have to bite you.

43:56I have to bite you.

43:59I have a nice day, and I will be at the hospital.

44:02Take me, Bruce.

44:04No, Bruce.

44:06At least for me, you might have to bite you.

44:09Are you fellas sure Blacky was in his bunk when you turned in?

44:30Yep, and snoring.

44:32Say, maybe the same thing that got dusty got him.

44:34Yeah, and maybe it didn't.

44:36Do you know Blacky's horse when you see it?

44:38Sure.

44:38Well then, go take a look and see if it's still in its stall.

44:41Fred, you ride for the sheriff or the rest of us search the place.

44:43Come on, will you make it snappy?

44:45Now let's hurry up.

45:08Well, it's about time you're getting here.

45:13Say, what do you expect a man to wake up out of a sound sleep?

45:15Jump into his pants and get someplace like that?

45:19What's this I hear about?

45:21Dusty King getting murdered.

45:22Ah, nobody said he was murdered.

45:23He ain't, why is you?

45:25And nobody said he isn't either.

45:27He went into the house to grab a prowler and that's the last anybody's seen of him.

45:31If I was a swearing man, I'd be aggravated enough to break loose, Carlton.

45:34Uh-uh, now that wouldn't help to find Dusty.

45:37Find him?

45:37Who wants to find him?

45:39You and him both are not old enough to take care of yourselves.

45:42If the two of you would please get lost for keeps, maybe I could solve a real murder mystery myself.

45:47Mm-hmm.

45:49What are you settling up for?

45:51I'm going out looking for Blackie.

45:53Blackie?

45:54Is he lost too?

45:56Well, he isn't around anywhere and I aim to find out where he is and why.

46:17Seems like that gang of yours is starting to run out on you.

46:21They'll be back all right.

46:22And when they do, they'll ring your neck until you tell them where that $10,000 is.

46:27That old broken-down Maverick ain't got no more money than I got hair.

46:34So you're in on this, too?

46:35I ain't in on anything.

46:37I'm telling him my partner ain't got no money.

46:39But he knows where something's at.

46:40And so do you.

46:41And if you don't tell, I'm going to break you that in half.

46:44Now, wait a minute, Bill.

46:45If you harm Elmer, he'll haunt you all the rest of your life.

46:48I ain't scared to haunts.

46:52I know who killed me and so do others.

47:12I'm Magpie Harper.

47:33Listen, Magpie, if that's really you, I'm Alibi.

47:40You know me, Alibi Terhune.

47:43And where is Bill?

47:45Gone. Ain't here anymore.

47:49Who is there?

47:52Just me and Elmer. You remember Elmer.

47:55Sure I do, Alibi. This is Dusty.

47:59Dusty?

47:59Yeah.

48:00I'm in an old mine tunnel.

48:02You know, it must butt right up against the place that you're in.

48:05What kind of fix you got yourself into?

48:07Terrible. Elmer's feeling awful because he lost his curly locks and good looks.

48:13I found a trick way of getting into this tunnel.

48:16It just might be that I might find a trick way of getting out at this end.

48:19Where'd you get in?

48:20At Harper's Ranch. Seems like I traveled for miles.

48:24Must be a whole mountain between us.

48:26Hey, wait a minute.

48:30Here's a funny looking contraption.

48:32You know, it just might be that...

48:34I'll get you out of this right away, Alibi.

48:40Except for the aforementioned bequest, I, in appreciation of a long friendship, do hereby will and bequeath all the residue of my properties, estate, and monies to Nancy Henderson.

49:00Oh, Father.

49:05Congratulations, Miss Henderson.

49:07Oh, come now.

49:08Instead of crying, I should think you'd be delighted.

49:12I am delighted.

49:13But I wish I could tell Uncle Magpie how grateful I am.

49:17Can't we go home, Father?

49:19Yes, dear.

49:19I've just got to be by myself.

49:21Thank you, Mr. Freeman.

49:23Very much.

49:24Not at all, Miss Nancy.

49:26Goodbye.

49:30Me going now?

49:32Yes, Fang.

49:33And just as soon as the estate is settled, I'll see that you get a check for $500.

49:37Very much of budget.

49:39All right.

49:40Wake up, Sheriff.

49:41School's dismissed.

49:42Where's the will been read?

49:44Just finished.

49:46Who was the heir?

49:48Oh, little dabs here and there.

49:50Ranch foreman, Chinese cook, range busters.

49:54But most of the money in the estate was willed to Nancy Henderson.

49:58How'd your father take it?

49:59Oh, he took it calmly enough.

50:01Did you think he knew it beforehand?

50:03Oh, no.

50:04I'm quite sure he knew nothing about it.

50:06Dang it all.

50:07Murder or no murder.

50:09Them tout over and cow crick are getting tired of waiting for me.

50:12If any clue turns up, that's where you'll find me.

50:17I'll be sure to call you, Sheriff.

50:42Blackie.

51:06Blackie.

51:08You're dead.

51:38You're dead.

52:08I reckon you know what you're about, Dusty, but speaking for me, I'd like to get out of here.

52:22Say, where's that breeze coming from?

52:24I'm not able to catch a cold in the head.

52:26This ombra you're waiting for might put off his vest because we all starve to death,

52:29which might make it too late to help find Crash.

52:32All right, Alibi, we'll keep moving.

52:38Wait a minute.

52:48I think I hear something.

52:50Yeah.

52:50Now, chances are he'll get close enough for us to grab him before he ceases.

53:08Don't breathe, Al.

53:09Maybe he's found what he's looking for and isn't coming any further.

53:18We'd better find out.

53:21Hey.

53:24What are we going to do?

53:26If he spots us, we'll have to shoot it out.

53:27What are we going to do?

53:57Frank!

54:21Frank!

54:23Frank!

54:23Maybe we can see who it is.

54:47I can't make out who that ombra is, but if I ain't plumb blind, the fellow's chasing

55:12the killer.

55:13Come on.

55:14Keep riding.

55:15Christ might need us.

55:16He's chasing the killer.

55:17Come on.

55:18Keep riding.

55:19Christ might need us.

55:20He's chasing the killer.

55:21Keep riding.

55:22Keep riding.

55:23He's chasing the killer.

55:24Nothing.

55:25Not you want to know.

55:27Come on.

55:27He's chasing the killer to offgewandercowane.

55:28No.

55:29So, if we can get on the mountain.

55:30There's a boy!

55:31Have a great job.

55:32Play his搭y with his own seas!

55:33But let's do it.

55:34Come on.

55:35Dashah!

55:36Let's go.

56:06Did all this come out at the hearing, Father?

56:29No. Freeman had made a full confession before.

56:31It seems that he had been spying on Magpie and found out about the money hidden in the tunnel.

56:36I guess he figured if he got rid of Magpie, nobody would be...

56:38Well, what went wrong? Did Blackie see him do it?

56:41No, but he did run across some papers in Freeman's briefcase,

56:44which gave away the fact that Freeman had a criminal record.

56:46Freeman?

56:47Yes. Embezzlement.

56:49So Blackie decided to go in for a little blackmailing.

56:52That's why Freeman had to get rid of him.

56:54Sure is complicated.

56:56Well, not half so much as it would have been if you boys weren't here.

56:59The way the sheriff was bungling the job, I might have been the penalty for Magpie's death.

57:04Father, what a hard subject to talk about.

57:06Let's forget all that. I'll get some refreshments.

57:09Oh, please don't bother. We've got to be going. We've got a long trip ahead of us.

57:13You sure have.

57:14Yeah, we've got to get a present for a friend of ours, and the only place we can get it is Denver.

57:18What? Another blonde?

57:20To tell the truth, it is a blonde.

57:22Wouldn't you say, Dusty?

57:24No, no, I'd say this party's hair was more of a straw color.

57:26Elmer, he hasn't been the same since he got his top piece shot off in that chute.

57:30Yeah, and we've got to get him a new one, quick.

57:32You sure do. The gals don't to me, boy.

57:34Chute all the time.

57:36Hold me tight, Elmer.

57:38I should think you would look after Elmer.

57:40After all, he was wonderfully brave.

57:44Oh, me. The life of a hero.

57:47Do it again.

57:49But you must all come back soon. Promise?

57:53Ah, don't worry. We'll be back.

57:55Yes, we certainly will.

57:57Woo-hoo.

57:58Come on, let's get going.

58:00Denver bust you range busters.

58:04Well, goodbye, Mr. Henderson.

58:05Goodbye, Dustin.

58:06Thank you for everything.

58:06Goodbye, Mr. Henderson.

58:08It's been a pleasure.

58:08Thank you, boys.

58:10Goodbye.

58:13We're in you, folks.

58:19We're in you, folks.

58:21We're in you, folks.

58:22We're in you, folks.

58:23We're in you, folks.

58:24We're in you, folks.

58:25We're in you, folks.

58:26We're in you, folks.

58:29We're in you, folks.

58:30We're in you, folks.

58:31We're in you, folks.

58:32We're in you, folks.
