“That’s right! Well, why didn’t yuh mention it before, Collins?”
“Well,” smiled Cultus, “I didn’t think a sheriff needed any advice from me.”
“Yuh didn’t? Well, yo’re all wrong. But it’s too late now, dang the luck!”
“Will they perform an autopsy on Buck Gillis?”
“A what?”
“An autopsy. Find out what killed him.”
“I don’t reckon there’s any doubt what killed him. You didn’t think he passed away from old age, didja?”
“I’d like to see them bullets, Bad News.”
