of us in Missouri during the war we was going to scare him and then run him off you forget about that you forget about the war to what's over next time I catch up to anything like this you'll go to jail go to jail over a dummy Yankee who don't own nothing but a skinny mule in the guitar get out of here short you too Tyler was Yankee better get out of here to clean out of dog you thank you for letting me sleep in your jail last night Marsha or you've been sleeping before a panel with my mule I always do yeah I hear you're broke what do you do for a living I never did nothing much Marsha just ride around on my mule what about your guitar don't you ever play and take up a collection or something no Marshall I wouldn't do that oh why not can't you play good enough I don't know Marshall I never played it for nobody to hear except me Chester take him over the long branch with you maybe Sam can give him a job of some kind it wouldn't be steady would it well I don't know but why shouldn't it be because I'll believe in in a day or two oh where you had it nowhere nowhere just right around on my mule I always do are you from anyway I was born San bonito on the real grand yes but I left took my guitar with me never did go back but if you're from Texas I'll come you fought in the Union Army I don't know one army just like another guess maybe you're right at that I'm only done what they told me Marshall sure Chester take him over to Sam's with him all right I left my guitar out back I'll go get it you sure he's a cute little fellow miss you don't yeah pretty helpless too you think short and tolerant bother him anymore I don't know on them I believe they don't hung him yesterday if they could you tell Sam to let me know if they even start talking to him again yes I will how about the meanest pair of men I ever knew yeah they are they don't think of something well they don't said he's leaving in there too I just hope it's soon off just Sam gave weed spindle a job sweeping up the saloon and letting live in a tiny shack out back you tried to get him to play his guitar but we all begin to think that he probably didn't even know how it's kind of hard to believe that anybody as simple as he was could learn to do anything I looked up short and Tyler and I warned him again to leave him alone they did until one morning a couple of days later Chester and I just come out of Del Monaco's we were walking up the front street put down and we should go across plaza there yeah I see him now let's go over to Tyler and short too that's all them to keep away from him what they laugh in there they're laughing and he isn't we suppose he's done to it look at his meal that's what they done good as one but he's lost the ear oh my my we quite always hear the bit I guess there's no pleasing some in time you shouldn't have done that to my meal the gym out of this no now Marshall we had done nothing to Pendle that they'd do this but I tried to stop him but Tyler held me and they gave me the year Marshall right here yeah I don't like what you did to his meal here I got next best thing you much of a mule anymore well you go take care of him huh these two will we be alone now who am you leave Kindle told me yesterday Matt that could have been most anything going him kidding no this kind of made sense I asked him if he was ever lonely he said no never stayed anywhere long enough to get to know anybody that would be that's the strange after all now what are they up to Tyler and short just came in with Pendle look mad it's got a guitar with him hey hey let's know about it wait a minute the little Yankee is going to play the guitar for us you gotta stop him wait a minute kid hello Yankee I've been playing that guitar a long time and that's a little marriage you bet they wanted me to they liked it for me in short we've been waiting to tell you how we like it too yeah let me see a guitar panel no you hurt my mule give it to me I got a gun in your ballot panel don't you know I want my guitar you can have it I just want sort of tune it for you first you know that's another thing that's wrong with his guitar it's a little bit too big for man like you back and fix that to your Yankee soldier all right not all learned let's go now kid are they both dead done yes real dead for several hours at least they must been asleep when it happened dog it looks like short there struggled a little way guess Tyler got his first that woke short up for a minute they wasn't wait very long man it's long enough to see who was cutting his throat probably they can't talk now I'm also here what do you want to do well let the hotel worry about him I guess it's weed pindle I want no man in him such a mile no follow-through any man can take just so much just a sure hate to say poor pindle hang for killing these two buzzards man just wait for me to jail I'll bring him over there soon as I find him Sam what'll it be Marshall where's weed pindle I just sent him out back for a bucket of sodas what do you want him for short and tight I got their throats cut early this morning that's good I guess they're smashing this guitar was too much for pindle and so there he is now pindle come over here yes morning Marshall my little pindle where was your last night I don't know your guess you don't know wait a minute Marshall where was your after they wrecked your guitar pindle I sat in the alley a while and I come back in here that's right and he was so broke up about his guitar I didn't want to leave him alone so I put him on the floor of my room ain't that right pindle come on tell him now sure that's right are you trying to alibi for him Sam well I know Marshall what do I care about him they some people care about me too oh he just talking about cares about your panel tell me those man what man he means some of the boys who was here when he came back with his busted guitar Marshall just told him I'm sorry there wasn't so they liked his music didn't they liked to hear me play who was in here then Sam well now Marshall you know how it is I'm busy pouring drinks and I don't pay no mind to who's here and who ain't I couldn't rightly say it all okay so I guess I can't beat the truth out of him Marshall who cares about Tyler and short died is better off without there's a law against murder Sam and it's the same for everybody and I'll be back later what's going to go Mr. Dylan I'll have done all I can Chester the whole time just plain quit talking nobody knows anything I reckon they're all protecting panel they are but he didn't do it and if I could prove who did it Chester I'd have them in jail you know that Chester come over here minute I declare looks to me like he's leaving town yeah I told him he could go he looks funnier and ever on that poor one-eared mule dodge-treated them will put it up it sure did world fella those kind of empty like that guitar don't know maybe you'll find another one somewhere anyway they sure like to hear him play in this town Sam I figure a couple of the other boys would be taking quite the just fine
