"Now if that don't beat all. Here we take the good time and trouble to slaughter every last Indian in the west...and for what? So we can appoint a sheriff that's blacker than any Indian. I am depressed."

accent

Hello Tim, Cris. Of course, his accent was NOT really Texan--it was Oklahoman. My late mother-in-law was from there and so I can recognise one fairly easily.

Cheers.
