The Cactus Pear

The National Broadcasting Company presents Joe McCray in Tales of the Texas Rangers. Tonight transcribed from Hollywood, another authentic reenactment of a case from the files of the Texas Rangers. Tales of the Texas Rangers starring Joe McCray as Ranger Jason Pearson.

Texas more than 260,000 square miles. And 50 men who make up the most famous and oldest law enforcement party in North America. The files of the Texas Rangers come these stories based on facts. Only names, dates and places are fictitious for obvious reasons.

The events themselves are a matter of record. Pay sport tonight, the cactus pair. It is 4 p.m. the afternoon of March 28, 1947. Robert Koots, a new hand on the triangle ranch is repairing a fence on the southeast range.

He stops as a right for approaches. Audi, Brake. Howdy me, koots. Now I see you finally got my job. I got a job because I was one-open. If you left it open, that's your worry. I reckon not mine.

You've been making up to the old man trying to get me fired ever since you came into this country. That ain't so when you know it. I've been looking for workier. But you didn't get fired on my account. You got sacked because you can't leave a bottle alone.

Sounds like you're calling me a liar. I ain't calling you anything. I'm just telling you. How about clearing off? You telling me to clear off this range? Alright, I'll get. But before I do, I'm gonna whip your tail, coats.

You better not try it, Breck, because you ain't about to whip my tail. Oh, wait, I... You ain't... You ain't... Clear off like I told you. Don't come back. It's gonna be no need for me to come back.
