Paiute Scroggs: I know you fellows are suffering. I'm suffering along with you. I'm just as tired and dirty and saddle-galled as the rest of you. Smell just as bad and maybe a little bit worse. What makes me suffer more is thinking that maybe it's all for nothing... Sure we'll catch up with 'em, but what comes after it is what makes you sick to your stomach... They'll turn them over to the deputy and take them back to Virginia City for trial and you gotta have a judge for a trial. Circuit judge won't be around for four or five months. Man, won't them fellas have a time waitin' for that trial! All them women comin' in there, bringing them pie and cake and white bread and all that stuff. All you fellas don't have but once a year, and maybe that's at Christmas. And them preachers - man, will they shine. They'll be praying and exhorting all over the place. And them town women will come down there and they'll be singing hymns, telling them all about their Ma's and their sisters [laughs] About two days before the trial, they'll be converted. I tell you, it'll take more than a jury to convict them after a thing like that.
