The Outlaw

This is Have Gun, Will Travel, for broadcast Sunday, December 14, 1958. Mr. You Killed Nine Men. I never heard anyone say you made allowances for your opponent's ability with a gun.

Have Gun, Will Travel. Starring Mr. John Dainer as Paladin. San Francisco, 1875. The Carlton Hotel. Headquarters of the man called Paladin.

Good morning, Mr. Paladin. Good morning. Good morning, Mr. Paladin. Good morning, Mr. Davis. I'm going to be at the Pacific Union Club. I was wondering if there's any mail for this. Clerk, a room, please.

Do you have a reservation? No reservation. This trip came up suddenly. You have a reference? I'm Ned Alcorn, President of the City Bank in Plaserville. Here are my credentials. Oh. Well, yes, of course, Mr. Alcorn.

If you sign here, excuse me, Mr. Halcorn. Oh, wait a minute, Clerk. Yes, sir. I want you to take a good look at this picture. Mmm. Manfred Holt wanted dead or alive $2,000 reward. This man might show up here.

Desperado, here in San Francisco? May I see that before? I beg your pardon? I'm sorry. My name is Paladin, Mr. Alcorn. I couldn't help overhearing. Oh. This Manfred Holt. Wasn't he to be hanged last week in Plaserville?

Why, yes, he broke out of jail three days ago. Killed two deputies. You think he's coming here? I think so, yes. He's killed nine men and he'll come after me sooner or later. Why? Well, I was the chief witness against him at the trial.

Oh, I see. His wife's living in a cabin up in Grass Valley. She had a sun-borne while the trial was on. Holtz Warren caught that he'd see the infant and then come after me. It'd probably be better for you if Holt was stopped in Grass Valley, wouldn't it?
