carrying a fortune you got your men ready larry you know cherokee there's never been a hold up on my stage lines it's got to be your first time for everything it's dangerous for the driver ain't it drivers always do seem to get hurt i wouldn't do it john he's got some trick up his sleeve i know it larry we need that thousand dollars to pay on our franchise so we can enter that mail race and i'd

why that double-crossing crook [Music] well it certainly looks like old times in crescent city and it's all due to john's efforts how long will it last dad oh probably a month or more after that john blair will have to work another miracle why not if he can win the race for the mail contract we'll get a post office and then crescent city will be a beehive once again if he wins he'll win you can bank on that every room the hotel's full say isn't this quite a come down from mayor and chariot maybe but the boys are kind of ashamed to tip them here i'm doing all right now oh here comes the here comes the stage where's larry he ought to be driver [Applause] [Music] take it easy boys bring him over to my house right away all right did you see who did it i'm telling you we couldn't see who fired the shot but whoever it was it was waiting there to do that job but you didn't follow my route scoring or coming no i didn't and i'm still alive why do you expect me to pay you a thousand

that crescent city franchise don't reach for anything but your pen remember you don't own that stage line yet he'll talk about that after the government mail race [Music] john please sit down did
