Assorted Rumors: From The Golden Lily Saloon
1: Did ya hear that Mr. Parnee got in six new bulls? Yessir, came all the way from some breeder up in the Dakotas. Big boys they are, too. He’s looking to build up his herd quality, but them bulls is gonna attract rustlers, you just know it. Young fellers like you might want to ride out to the Rocking K and see about signing on to help Parnee out.
2: Look, I’m just saying that Dick Lewis was tossed in the jail last night for drunk and disorderly and he was going on about his brother Sam getting out of prison today and heading straight here to pay the town back for his lost seven years. Me, I’m heading on over to Bradleyville until everything blows over.
3: I’m tellin’ ya, boys, that Dark Rider fella has come to Arizona. Me and Hank was up on the mesa, tendin’ to some business that ain’t none o’ yours, and we saw him right before sundown. He came ridin’ up on the Spokes gang, guns blazin’ and him on that big black hoss all dressed in black. There was four ‘o them and one of him and he was shootin’ guns outta hands and wingin’ then owlhoots. After they was all on the ground, he tied ’em up and tended their wounds, then rode off. ‘Bout an hour later, Sheriff Andrews shows up with a couple deputies an’ picks ’em up.
