Cattleman's Gun

He Learns

               He rode into a town, in a dust storm. Black sheepskin cloak across his back. He was a preacherman with kind old eyes. Wih a mysterious past. He said he came to teach about the love of god. He was in a sermon, when he heard a gun shot. He ran outside to see a old farmer on the ground lifeless woth a bullet to his chest.

               Than he saw a man in a black bull hide ride off on a red horse. He knew from then on out that this wasn't going to be easy. As the man rode off he yelled "Honor and a name ain't worth a damn if you dont have your life." Preacherman turned and asked a boy who the man was. The boy said "That's the cattleman." Preacherman asked "Who is this cattleman?" The boy said "He owns all the land around, and any brave fool that might just spute he's quick to snuff em' out." All Preacherman knew was he had to stay low and keep quiet to survive.

               Preacherman was in the saloon one 3 weeks later and heard another gun shot. He knew what that meant. He saw the man ride off again. He was getting scared for his life. The bartender said "Ain't nobody faster than that cattleman's gun." And a woman said "Ain't that the truth." The bartender said "Guess you got another funural to plan huh, Preacherman?" Preacherman nodded in agreement.

                Preacherman was running the service for a wedding and saw the cattleman in the doors of the church. Preacherman didn't say anything he went on with the service. He said "If anybody forbidds these two to be together speak now or forever hold your peace." The cattleman shot his revolver in the air. And said "This man shall not marry my daughter, or his ticket to hell is right here." As Cattleman point the gun at the boy's head while walking towards the groom.

            The bride shouts "No I love him!" Cattle man looks at her and screams "SHUT THE FUCK UP!!" He looks back ant the groom and says "Get out of town boy, and if I see you again. You'll be next." And within 1 minute the groom was riding off on his horse while the bride was crying on the streets if the town. Cattleman then mounted his horse and rode off. Preacher man then thought, 'This town won't survive with cattleman around.'
