I noticed he's waked up. I walked over to the bed My leg Well, of course I did Why? You might have died if I hadn't a wound like that gets in Rapal don't care if they're prisoners died You're not a prisoner here Look, what's your name anyway? Yorkie Yorkie Hello That's all I remember Is that what the Arapahose cookie? Yes, they won't give me another name till I'm a brave Well, Yorkie is a white man's name Where are your parents? Killed in a raid. They told me I've been a rapper ever since What was your father's name, you know? I see young But how come you remember English so well? An old man of the tribe makes me talk every day. I Don't know where he learned, but he says it'll come to you later when I'm brave You know I've wars against the white man Well, Yorkie you are a white man Yes, but I live with the Arapahose Well, you did but you're back among your own people now. You've got to learn to live a different life No, you mean you want to go back with the Indians? First I have to make a big cool make a big cool. What for? I'll be killed if I don't Are you talking about I? Allowed myself to be seen and exposed the raiding party Well, I'll be killed if I don't make a cool return with a scalp or some horses you The kid like you Unless you kill me first Yorkie nobody's gonna kill you and you get that out of your head You're not gonna kill anybody either or steal any horses. So you forget about that If I make a big clue my mistake on the raid will be forgiven And I'll be the youngest brave in the whole tribe. Well, we'll argue about that later But what are you doing on this raid in the first place a white boy must prove himself many times It's harder than for an Indian That's why they let me come See you got yourself quite a problem at New Yorkie But right now, why don't you go back to sleep for a while, huh? And I'll have some soup for you when you wake up Like a little more cosmic brand. Oh, yeah, thank you What you gonna do about that kid Marshall is not much I can do well You can't leave him here. I didn't bring him here Marshall, I'm serious. Even if that was an ordinary kid. I got no way to raise him, but this is bad I told you've been after me twice already. Now. You need the scalp to take back some matter of life or death with it They ain't taking mine. You really think he might kill somebody mr. John? Left alone. Yeah, but he's so young now. I heard the Billy the kid killed a man when he was 12 He doesn't seem to matter much Can't you talk him out of it? Oh, it's wrong. I've tried but Yorkie thinks like an Indian. He doesn't know anything about the white man's world Guess not How's he feeling this morning anyway, and I hope to his fever it'd be done, but it isn't well. He needs a doctor That's what yeah, oh by the way, Brant is this one of your guns Where'd you get it Yorkie had it when I went in there this morning But he was too weak to use it. I told you he's a bad one Marshall. He'll kill someone yet All Yorkie understands right now is kill or be killed Why don't you get your wagon brand? I will take him into dodge Now all your shoes can keep a dancing With No puffing and no buffing it rise to his shine back Ever wish there was a lady like shoe polish one that would keep a lady's shoes looking lovely without making her work like a stevedore Well, now there is You shine all that liquid wax The shine is new a bright self-polishing shine that covers up any scuffs or scratches But never never changes the color of the shoes you chose so carefully The way it goes on is new with a neat flexible applicator that shapes to your shoe to spread the polish more evenly and accurately and Keep it a safe distance from your manicure and of course the shine all the folks wouldn't think of having a lady rub or brush Use you shine all the liquid wax dries to a shine shine ma'am The next few days Yorkie lay on the couch in Doc's office, and he watched us with wild restless eyes In spite of his obvious courage, I think he was a little frightened And when Doc was suddenly called on a case out in the country for several days I had an idea and I thought Chester to find kitty You want me to nursing is that it man? Well partly kitty But also I thought maybe you could talk to him a little it's so it is hard for him to trust a man I guess yeah, I know just to tell me about him He'll be well enough pretty soon to get into trouble Bad trouble. I'll do it. I can Can he try to get it to eat something? Yeah, I haven't had much luck. Yeah, but you stay here. Yeah Hello Yorkie Who are you? My name's kitty. I'm gonna take care of you Why? Because you're sick. Wouldn't you take care of somebody sick? Not an enemy We're not enemies Yorkie But even if we were I'd take care of me Prisoners get role by themselves or they die not about me. They don't Anyway, you're not a prisoner. You can leave anytime you want to Is that the truth? Unless you do something wrong I don't know about you What it was like with the Arapahoe's or What you remember about when you were younger Telling me secrets. I don't want to know any secrets Yorkie But maybe you can tell me Did you have a mother in the tribe? Tell me about that I'm a white boy They've never let me have a mother Anyway, I was big enough. I didn't need one You ever want one Yorkie? I don't know. I Guess so sometimes Better to have one Mine was killed and raided when they found me. I know Do you remember at all? No Sometimes I think I do Sometimes when I'm asleep What do you remember about it then I Don't know Just a feeling I guess Sort of like being warm. Is that what it's like? Yeah, I Think that's what it's like Yorkie Very much like that. Hungry kitty would Do let me have something to eat Of course I was Yorkie. Of course I will Kitty spent as much time with Yorkie as she could manage and whenever she'd been with him He always seemed calmer and less frightened We began to have hopes that maybe the boy would take to his new life after all Chester and I were busy and except for taking some food up now And then we turned Yorkie's care over to kitty completely when dog with that Well, he said worried he'd have to be out there another day. I guess miss Taylor's been real sick You reckon maybe Yorkie could just live with doc. Oh, I don't know what to do with him Chester Maybe you ought to be on a rack somewhere. I don't know Where we gotta do something with him Where's Yorkie? All right, he's upstairs kitty. Have you been up there today to see him? Well, no. Well Yorkie's gone, Matt. Well, I'll go take a look. I've already searched the place he isn't there. Let's go look on the straight chest and maybe somebody's seen him. You better find him. That's all I can say. We'll find him kitty. Don't worry. Maybe he's got a hold to a gun somewhere. I hope not Anyway, if he's as smart as I think he is he'll locate a horse to get away on first Maybe a couple of them just now beginning to think you're gonna settle down a little hang you never know I still got faith on that kid some Let's cross over to Moscow make stable That's much younger now and Mars Marshall I was gonna come see you Marshall. Oh, that kid you brought in to dodge the other day Oh, what about him? I caught him trying to steal one of my horses. You've got Yorkie. Where is it? Back here put up quite a fight for a sick boy Marshall a little wild cat and it's time up finally throw them in the saddle room there Sure, I mean one There he is Devil he'll hang yet. Give me your knife. Don't untie him Marshall. I'll handle him. All right. Yorkie, I'm sorry this happened. I'd have given you a horse if you'd ask me Wasn't going to steal him and what was you doing riding him out of that stall young fellow wait a minute Mars You say you weren't gonna steal him Yorkie. No, what were you doing then? Kitty didn't come and I got lonely All right, I Don't know I think I do Just wanted to be around something familiar something. You know, isn't that right? I guess so And you live with horses all your life. You know them pretty well, so you came over here. I Wasn't going to steal him. I just wanted to get on him. You know, I have to leave the boy Marshall is tell of the truth Yorkie, I'm sorry. I treated you rough. Now. Why didn't you tell me? What are you gonna do with me now? Well, doc will be back tomorrow Yorkie if he says it's okay for you to stay up you can Meantime kitty will be there All right, I'll tell you what Yorkie you get. Well, you come over here. I'll give you a horse to ride You will sure I got lots of horses you can take your pick. I Don't understand you Well, he trusts you Yorkie We all do You shouldn't trust anybody. Well, maybe not but we do anyway Hey Mars, I got an idea. Yeah, Marshall. I don't suppose you could use a stable boy around here Some kid who really knows horses who's used to hard work. Yeah, I don't have much money Marshall But I could feed him a little maybe fix him a bed in the saddle room here Of course a good boy is like a good horse, you know, it's bound to be some hot blood at him try to lift my hair I'll walk them good that clear young fella You're talking about me. Well, of course. They're talking about you Yorkie one thing I can't hire nobody less than he has a whole name Most Yorkie don't know his last name. Well, call him anything Kelly that's a good name Yorkie Kelly Grimmick in Kelly sounds all right to me But you people get out of here now. I got work to do and Yorkie Doc says you're bitten you come back. I'll be back
