Re: Episode 3-3: Lawin'
"A pleasure to meet you Mr. Clarke, and you too ma'am," he said simply, tipping his hat to Coraline. He shook Daniel's hand, simply giving his name and who he was. "Wyatt Earp, Deputy Marshal here." By Caleb's reaction to the newcomers, he knew that they were of his company.
"To those of you I haven't met previously, I called you here on account of your assistance rendered timely to the Kinsley Sheriff and Marshal Morgan here. Here's the long and short of it. Dodge City is crowded as hell, which you don't need me to tell you. There's gonna be a bit of a festival thrown for the Fourth of July, independence day for the USA. Well, as y'all probably know, not everybody is keen on that here to say the least."
He cleared his throat. "I'm not here to get into politics, just keep the peace, and I want a lot here that can do that too. I don't care what side anybody is on, if they start a fight, if they start trouble of any kind and won't back down to the proper authority, they go in the slammer with Radcliffe over there. Hopefully that won't be necessary. You flash your tin star at 'em, and they'll back down nice and easy. But just in case there's trouble, the town council has authorized me to take on a few new deputies."
"If any of y'all is interested, it's pretty easy work and pays well. Officially you're only on duty from 6 p.m. until after the festivities end late each night. Job starts now, and ends at dawn on the 5th, or whenever the streets happen to clear out. That's ten dollars a day, so you'd each clean up thirty dollars by the time all's said and done. Definitely enough to ease a passage for those that're lookin' to travel further west."
