We have so few visitors.

for nothing, either.

Mack, trail him

and see what he's up to.

Hm?

way to make you both talk.

Dead men can't tell us anything.

Come on, let's get him.

Mack, go over

and saddle up my horse.

I know nothing

what this is all about.

Help, help!

You'll be all right now.

And you come along,

and you spoil it all.

share of the mine.

Come on, I'll tell you

while we're riding.

to be afraid of now?

just lingers on.

where he can't spend a nickel.

I don't know what he'd want
