the mint with enough gold to back up the new currency that was being issued well according to Secret Service information a highly efficient gang of thugs stole it killing at least a half a dozen of our men and you believe the gold is someplace in this vicinity that's right but unless they can knelt the gold to get rid of it no bank or sane person would touch it because each gold bar has a US stamp on it somehow I can't seem to tie in string to down with all this gold you can count on my help Javi thanks Sheriff as a captain of the Secret Service you understand that well I'd prefer to work

jumped out of yeah uh bunny some of the boys were saying that you knew the kid before he came to Spring Town is that right yeah when I ran the Golden Slipper in St Joe Golden Slipper St Joe by the way when is the trial coming up tomorrow morning judge Gardner is [Music] presiding here he comes morning judge this s to be a cinch hanging for you n good morning judge everybody to your seats please quiet I just want to warn you all that the district court number six of this territory is now open and In Session Court aims to hold a fair and legal trial that won't stand for no hollering loud arguments or cussing also the Dignity of this court has got to be respected and little bets is here to see that it is you get on hey you two men back there take your hats off take your head off Cho where his hat cour you heard me poy take off your hat Sheriff bring in the defendant all right Harry bring in a prisoner you are the abene kid yes your H according to the complaints your charg with obtaining money with a mark of cards malicious mischief and creating a brawl in the Blue Moon Salon how do you wish to plead guilty or not guilty not guilty your honor you uh have an attorney No Sir Mr haes here Jud the court hereby appoints you attorney for the defense who me I object your honor on account of a course I don't know anything about the law makes no difference I know enough for both of us objection overruled sit down [Music] kid now then do any of you gentlemen wish to volunteer for jury duty [Music] I thought not so I suppose this will have to be a trial by acclamation on account of your all such lowgrade citizens fress with this toad Tyler dead St and after the fight broke up I just happened to take a look at the car cards it looked sort of funny to me so I called Blazer and the rest of the boys I thought that I'd show them the cards and I know Mark carts when I see them judge we examin the whole deck Barney had to look at him too and I'll tell you something else and there's no doubt the kid tampered with the cards in my opinion I object your honor objection sustained the court is not interested in your opinion next twit this he fooled me just like he did the rest I guess he nailed me for PR near 800 that's his first degree railroading if you ask me that's why I'm sure the play was crooked beat me out of all the cash I had head and a thousand I borrow from Carl Weber Mighty smart poker players all of you Jets you may step [Music] now now as you have listened to all the evidence there is it appears to this court that the Gentile citizens of this town should be able to reach a decision on the defendant's guilt or innocence therefore those who calculate him guilty will raise their right hand what in Thunders the attorney for the defense got his left hand in the air force it ain't right what ain't right my left hand ain't right and neither is this trial it's all wrong say [Music] now now are there any of you here here that figure the kid is innocent 2 3 4 5 6 prisoner will rise the verdict is 10 to six against you kid you got anything to say no no I guess not makes my heart beat heavy to sentence you sir the court has found you guilty and you know what that [Music] means Sheriff you know your duty remove the prisoner C [Music] [Music] dismissed where were you when the trial was going on in my office writing an editorial I knew what the procedure would be and the verdict well when are they going to uh tomorrow morning Law and Order [Music] [Music] well kid got anything to say I want all of you to know that you're witnessing a murder the murder of an innocent man whose only crime was luck the bad luck to win the gold of some of his more Craven fellow men I know that anything I might have to say won't change your mind according to law I've been tried and proven guilty I want to remind you that you're hanging a man for a crime he didn't commit you'll have that to live with all your natural lives gold and greed it

poy [Music] [Music] did you get it mhm I'm going to try something kind of tough about Wilson yeah any idea who the killer might be no but I found a little clue that might lead to something that's a slug that killed Harry that don't look like lad to me it isn't it's gold pure gold say you don't think what yall remember just before the kid swung what he said about being murdered for gold and that gold would uh Revenge him or some hogwash what's the matter with you what do you make of that D of f you found are you listen to me I ain't saying I don't believe in no Hereafter nothing like that but if I was you I wouldn't even hint at what you just said [Applause] [Music] Glon go for your gun [Music] [Music] hello py don't do that I hear the chff Make You Dead he sure did say if that abalene kid

yes oh oh no no CH is too young today oh no [Music] mother what's the matter with him I only wanted to say hello maybe maybe I better go with some people it's the same old story gentlemen it happened just like the others you find the body and the usual card beside it good morning gentlemen good morning man good morning I read your editorial Matt and you're quite right and I want to tell you Sheriff that something's got to be done about this insane killer why it isn't even safe to walk the streets yeah and it ain't helping my business any either half my subscribers are leaving town it's an outrage we're doing the best we can this killer whoever he is how do you know it's a he huh what are you getting at nonsense well remember that place he made for the kid and after what's been happening his tal Outburst pure and simple now according to the way I figure whoever is behind this has more of a motive than just revenge and is a pretty good shot to back up whatever's at stake Lita was sure pretty fancy with that Rod she pulled on Blazer nah that was just a little daringer Wilson Weber Lamson and Calvin were all drilled with 45 slugs doc McCoy found out out for us gold slugs having any luck boys Miss Mary you're just in time to see the big pale well getting hot now now is the time for the jackpot right d there it goes I'm scared you no money as I was saying Bonnie it's a good job besides I've been wanting to get to Frisco for a long time yeah I understand that crazy killer isn't caught soon there won't be anybody left in string town hey por oh kind of clumsy I could have draw faster but I figured you want to kill her anyhow sheriff wants to see over in the office right away he does oh all right you know Miss Mary hello hansome Chico you better come along with me it's kind of dark [Music] outside Hy Jessa glad to see you what's the matter Bonnie nervous guess I am a little jumpy have a [Music] [Music] drink how would you like to collect a big reward in helping us spot the killer sure who wouldn't all right I'll tell you what I want you to [Music] do got shot [Music] [Music] nort what's the idea [Music] Bonnie Bonnie [Music] I picked them up in Barney's room well at least that gives us something solid to work on rire yeah but I'm stumped if I know which way to turn shooting down Norton like he did and then before you can say jumping jihas that Barney gets a dose of the same [Music] medicine ghost killer on rampage within 48 hours after the brutal slaying of Jesse Norton and Barney Bernard in the blue moon Saloon the mysterious murderer of six prominent String Town citizens struck again savagely shooting to death rainbow Raymond in broad daylight leaving no other evidence but an Insidious Aid of Spades who will be next that's what I want to know who might be any one of us the sheriff's been dling around like an old fool while the shooting's been going on yeah give me a lemonade make it a double the six was Jesse Norton the seven Bonnie Bernard and the a of Spades rainbow Raymond it all adds upright sort of killing Solitaire yeah you know we could probably save a few lives if we could just stop and think like this crazy person let's try it all right well the nine and 10 laser and told Jack of Spades could be myself or you pory or no now old Porky sure did the best he could at the trial and the queen well there's no reason for the queen to plan in this sort of game anyway Lita was all for the kid and oh it couldn't be Polly well she's related to me you know confused as it is as a pattern to these killings I still say it's Revenge maybe and maybe not what do you mean I think the Killer is using the abene kid as an excuse to get rid of all these people whatever it is you can bet it's big and important who knows maybe it's that Federal Gold Sheriff I've got a plan what's that I've got an idea how we can narrow down our list of suspects each gold slug was undoubtedly fired from a Rimfire type gun I used to see them when I was in the Army a lot of Old-Timers wouldn't use anything else starting tomorrow I'm going to check every gun in [Music] town hey fellas wait a minute what's up looks like you're leaving town darn right and no matter how far we get it ain't far enough we fancy to live a little longer and it won't be in string town let me see your guns will you what's the FL Mister have a mind gift I sure hate to be in anybody's boots that had anything to do with that Federal Gold what do you mean huh nothing just thinking out loud he how is a judge you hang on to an old obsolete rire type gun like this because it saved my life once that's why thanks you're sure you don't own a 45 huh oh what would I want with heavier artillery this is good enough and if it ain't I have other weapons handsome I wonder I'd like to see your gun gun my dear man I don't own a gun I do my killings with a [Music] pin hello oh Tom why do you pop in unexpected and the way I look I think you look just Grand oh I don't I know

why Tom Harvey you now take it easy Polly look I brought you a little present but it's beautiful time why give me a gun oh why well no reason exactly except that except Polly that I know there's going

the thing you're driving me Betty Shine at your own shadow I wish Bonnie hadn't have made us pull that Mark card trick the kid Knew Too Much he had to get rid of him what do you think that Deputy

the rest of them yeah come to think of it practically everyone that had anything to do with that goal got it from this this ghost yeah all but us please I was thinking maybe a shut up why didn't I
