Timothy 'Pop' Keith : Put this down. 'Whereas, I hearby bequeath my homestead to my daughter... '
Billy Shear : You don't need 'whereas' and the 'hereby.'

Marshal Len Merrick : We'll head through the desert to Santa Loma.
Timothy 'Pop' Keith : [taken aback] The desert? Why, this is August, man. No self-respecting rattler would try to cross the desert in this heat.
Deputy Lou Gray : You'd never make Santa Loma that'a way!
Marshal Len Merrick : We got no choice. The other way, Roden'll be waitin'. I don't aim to have us all killed.
Deputy Lou Gray : Well, let Roden have the old man. He ain't meant nothin' but trouble to us.
Ann Keith : Sure, give him up, jug head. Save your own hide!
Marshal Len Merrick : We're leaving now across the desert. Look, I know it's tougher, but they won't figure on us taking the long way around. And even if they do, we'll have a night's ride ahead of them. Pack up, Billy.
