[Crockett and Russel approach Cobb on the boat landing]

George Russel:
Howdy there.

Cap'n Cobb:
Howdy.

George Russel:
This your boat?

Cap'n Cobb:
Yep. Bertha Mae, out of Marietta.

Davy Crockett:
Sounds like a race horse.

Cap'n Cobb:
Pretty hard to beat if she's handled right.

Davy Crockett:
Which way you goin', upriver or down?

Cap'n Cobb:
Ain't goin' no place right now.

George Russel:
Barrel's marked for New Orleans.

Cap'n Cobb:
That's right. But my crew up an' deserted me.

Davy Crockett:
What'd they do that for?

Cap'n Cobb:
Heard about the Injuns.

Davy Crockett:
Didn't know there was any Injun trouble around here.

Cap'n Cobb:
Oh, not here. Downriver somewhere. Other side of Shawnee Town. Them red devils is attackin' everything, flatboats loaded with settlers, even on keelboats. Got so bad, nobody'd sign on.

George Russel:
Injuns don't seem to be scarin' off Mike Fink none.

Cap'n Cobb:
Ah, him and them Pittsburgh pole pushers of his ain't human enough to be scared!
