to pay 70 for it suppose you tell me why you paid 500 for it well i sort of liked your looks and you seemed to want the picture so i so you thought i looked like the kind of a girl that would let a stranger buy her 500 presents [Applause] if you don't want it from the first ditch you come to when you get through come under the bar now pay you for helping a very good seth wait a minute where'd you come from originally from england sir a gentleman's gentleman said i say why'd you quit well so you see it was a matter of ten pounds it was lost and uh they said you stole it oh no sir but they said they might have found it if i hadn't helped them look for it oh mr lane well i'm sorry i said that i didn't mean it the way it sounded i think you were splendid forget it oh please please don't go yet i want to answer your question about that picture it's my grandfather oh so that's the answer you like the old fellow no it wasn't that i liked grandfather i never saw him well then we won't call it a present but i'll loan it to you and you can take it home with you and i can't take his picture home with me because i haven't any home oh so that's the answer maybe i better tell you all about it that might help if you feel like i'm passing mother often talked about grandfather we wanted him to come and see us but he just wouldn't leave the ramp the old gentleman with said ideas got a thing worth taking so i was grandfathers only heir but the taxes and penalties on this place were more than i could cover even though it was worth it so i just never came to look at it you think i get stuck with the place oh no oh please don't shoot again so one shot was quite convincing i suppose you were going to help me define my money oh most of this time i wasn't earnest you see i haven't been able to find me a job and you've got a job now unsettle my horse and put him in the barn then you're not going to jail me sir what do you think oh thank you sir thank you thank you thank you sir that was fine of you to give him another chance i need help if i'm going to run this place oh you were telling me why you wanted the picture people thought maybe he buried his money somewhere on the ranch sounds reasonable but i still don't see what this picture has to do with it neither do i you see i had a notice of this sale and thought i ought to come down here and see if anything could be salvaged then when those men started bidding so high i thought sure i ought to get it same here those three birds know something about grandpa that you and i ought to find out i guess you'll have to do that mr lane you see when i got the hunch to come down here i drew out all my savings and gave up my job you've got a job since i'm going to have a gentleman's gentleman i'd better have a secretary i'm sorry mr lane but i couldn't now don't get me wrong again you're to go into town now and hire sort of a combined cook and chaperone and then what then we'll move in here and try and find out why grandpa's picture's worth so much money is it a go gene it's a go jared i bid for brandon because i thought that was my cue everyone had a hunch and i was right if there's a chart to old man moore's money that picture holds the secret this man laying the girl whoever she is knows it well if you're too sure about it why didn't you out mid lane because i know a cheaper way to get that picture and the ranch too if we need it i'm sure you'll be satisfied with your housekeeping unless she worked for us at the hotel she seems very capable uh where is the sheriff's office just a block down the street thanks it's all thick this more is hard for adidas for a housekeeper good that puts a friend inside the house wayne's over to the sheriff's office they only knew what his game is i'll find out or i'll persuade him to drop it you know what you're to do sure come with me well i'm glad that we got a good substantial citizen on the mower place since the old man died there's been a lot of queer stories about the ranch what kind of stories well now that i got your check lane i'll tell you people say that the ranch is haunted is that right hmm haunted what do you mean just one of those stories that get around you see old hiramore was a miser no offense to you miss moore and there's a lot of talk about buried treasure some people say that the old man couldn't sleep easy in his grave i never saw his ghost i never talked to anybody that did but won't do you any harm except that you may have some trouble getting the boys to work the place well maybe ohio moore will quit haunting when he finds his granddaughter there now mr lane if you just put your john hancock right there on the bottom line everything will be all right hello sheriff oh why i didn't know you were busy i'll come back later hold on hold on come in come in i want you to meet some people this is missing more granddaughter of old hire more how do you do and this is jerry lane who's going to be your neighbor he just bought the moore place mr brandon this place borders yours on the south well that's fine might be glad to have a neighbor mr wayne maybe with folks living in the more house we'll hear less about old hiram's ghost riding the rain what about this ghost mr brandon did you ever see it well i don't believe in ghosts myself but several of my men claim to have seen it men were generally thought to be reliable but you still don't believe in ghosts well i'll put it this way fight over a man who might walk after death he's the man thanks mr brandon don't forget to be neighborly you'll see a good deal of me i expect stop in sometime sheriff i will well that's settled did you get the chaperone a half breed woman homely but she seems capable why homely then i'm gonna start by being jealous i hope no i took what i could get the clerk at the hotel found her for me she'll be at the ranch tonight oh cutie about me and you're having a drink jerry be careful that's all i do come on old man you've had one too many better go home and sleep at all you think i'm drunk hey well what do you think here's what i say i apologize you're not drunk [Music] oh my gosh [Music] oh [Music] i'm not looking for trouble but keep out of my way next time you'll really get hurt i'm sorry this happened folks the man's a stranger here i hope you won't hold it against the community cowboys will get drunk sure they will but he isn't a cowboy and he wasn't running he's a professional pug if i ever saw one you want me to prefer charges against this man lane no just keep him out of my way well you certainly know how to handle him lane yes and i'm pretty good down goes too mr brandon [Music] are you out [Music] so [Music] um come on [Music] eddie eddie parsons your gentleman seems to have other accomplishments i'm afraid he's got too many i beg your pardon so i failed to hear your arrival i didn't know you were a musician eddie i'm very kind of you to take notice miss i'm a bit out of practice but i find my fingers between the nimble touch i've noticed that oh thank you sir i did a bit as a singing waiter in the big london restaurant it paid rather well i'd imagine you'd make it pay pretty well thank you think i am a horse there'll be more in the morning moreover yes more horses well what do we do now his grandfather the third degree jerry maybe it is true maybe what's true maybe grandfather's ghost really does ride the range he was a strange man from what my mother told me never gave up anything that once belonged to him maybe he won't give it up even when he's dead now listen yes jerry when i hired you as a secretary i thought you were grown up not a kid i'm going to be too busy to be sitting up nights telling your bedtime stories well but if there really should be there unquestionably will be if grandfather's ghost comes i intend to catch him perhaps he can tell me about his picture [Music] hmm [Music] um [Music] when you finish the dishes for dean you may go to bed if you wish thank you i shall block my god why of course but what on earth for because of the first in this house i didn't afraid at night he rides sometimes through the ranch open a great white hole [Music] oh jerry what was that fly me a benches what is it just the coils it always hollows when the moon is up [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] hey sing one of your london songs righto i'm not a ballet snob you know far from it i do the tasks that set for me of course but i'm a sentimental man and i'm working for a gentleman i age to be a valid to an artist i age to be a valid to an office it fills my soul with sadness and remorse how can the faithful servant feel he's being helpful and genteel when it's a valley valid to at all i can't approve the funny-looking creatures the size and shape and silly equine features i've been footman butler page but whoever thought at my age i come to be the valet to an officer another valley snob you know far from it i do the tasks that set for me of course but i'm a sentimental man and i'm working for a gentleman i ate to be a ballad to announce what's that daring it's there jerry do you think it's a ghost not yet but it will be if it comes in within range well better luck next time piggy pardon said but i think it's a bit of luck that he didn't stop all this hocus pocus is intended to scare us off who's ever doing it knows something about that picture that we don't know it's gone floor blimey if it ain't pretty tough open the door see senor hey moment please what is that senor santo dios you are frightened me what is that music senor nothing i just had a hunch and i was wrong sorry good night good night did a wrong guess it wasn't there well i knew it wouldn't be jerry i'm frightened let's give it up and get out of here yeah yes we might as well oh i'm sorry i know you've done all this for me spent your money and risked your life oh that's all right buying the ranch was just a gamble those fellas were too smart for me they got what they came for i beg your pardon sir but i i don't think they did you're not going to tell me you think a ghost took it well i don't know anything about a ghost sir but whoever took the picture is going to be disappointed what are you driving at when you see sir i sort of anticipated this happening so i examine the picture myself i've found this hidden in the frame what did you intend to do with this well i sort of intended to sell you out sir but i i found i couldn't go through with it i see thanks eddie full moon yeah i took the liberty of looking that up too sir there'd be a full moon a week from tonight a week from tonight uh i wonder you'd be much better off you didn't you're on the wrong side get around on the left until you stand is that so sir of course oh thank you sir amazing sir i didn't know an ass knew which was his left side sir uh when miss moore wakes up tell her i've gone around see the shirt very good sir keep this for me dave may get me in trouble right we found the compartment in the picture frame where the chart probably was hidden but wayne had beatens to it the compartment was empty and secrets hey i do all the dirty work fighting ghost writing but i ain't told nothing you're paid for what you do not for what you know is that so well there's one man that'll pay me for what i know yes and who is that man jerry lane ever hear of him i'm afraid tex is no
