• [first lines] 

  Cheyenne : Got those maps ready, Smitty?

  Smitty : [going over his maps]  Yep. Them government boys are gon' know this land just like they'd been here. Hey, what's this picture of Chief Crazy Horse doing in here?

  Cheyenne : If you don't want it, stick it on the tree.

  Smitty : Ah, the Indian Wars are on again.

  [hangs the picture on a tree] 

  Smitty : Two bits and a hot bath says you can't hit him in the eye.

  Cheyenne : You're on.

• Tommy Scott : Are you sure you ain't an Indian fighter?

  Cheyenne : I sure hate to disappoint you, Tommy, but when I meet an Indian, I try to make friends with him.

  Smitty : And that's a break for the Indian. Chief Crazy Horse might have lost an eyeball this afternoon.

• Cheyenne : There's a town not very far from here by the name of Julesburg.

  Smitty : Julesburg? You know, I ain't never been there, but I heard tell of that place. They say there ain't no law and ain't no Sunday.

• McCanles : We got a seat open. Maybe a little new blood in the game would bring me some luck.

  Smitty : No thanks. Not much for a hand at poker. Gave it up two years ago. Had three of a kind and a fella beat me out with two sixes.

  McCanles : Two sixes?

  Smitty : They had pearl handles. Course, I didn't feel too bad, but the fella next to me did. He had six aces.

  Tommy Scott : Bye, Smitty. Bye, Cheyenne.

  Cheyenne : Take care of yourself, Tommy.

  Smitty : So long. We'll be seein' ya.
