                                                                “They Speak Without Words”

Matt had received word that Three of the escapee’s had been killed, apparently by two of the other’s they were traveling with..?   This was information Festus’ brought back with him, from Garden City..
Matt now knew his odds were improving…   But things just weren’t going his way.. Not at all?
He still had no idea who had escaped?.. or where they were?  Or if they were headed for Dodge?
He just knew he would have felt much better if Kitty hadn’t left… he realized over the years he grew to rely
On the fact that …well, when there were problems.. they worked well together… they were in tuned to one another…and he still didn’t like the way things were when she left… But he continued to tell himself it was just that he was thinking of her own good.


Kitty reluctantly went along with this sheriff… figuring she could talk some sense into him..?
Sitting in the café … Kitty exhausted…Look Sheriff, Do you really think if I had stolen that horse I would have rode it into town here?  Honestly!   Missy?… I wouldn’t believe what I’ve seen woman do for their man?!   But, I’m telling you…Ok…!  What man?  I don’t know who your talking about.   Snickering at her,
Mis… Russell, Kitty Russell!    So you say.. he replied.  Letting out a huff of breath…did you wire Matt Dillon in Dodge?.. Well did you?   Yes I did …OK and…?  No reply.. he answered .  Maybe Matt’s not there… or Maybe he just didn’t read it yet?  She was running out of patience….  Missy…My Name is Kitty Russell!   I’ll be taking you to Topeka.. Why?  To be tried.. we don’t get too many judges here in Hermitage
Oh, is that what you call this place?   Well yeah, he said smiling.   Where did you think you were.. Arching her Brow… OH, I had another name for it…!     There was a couple sitting across from them, the woman was watching them the whole time… then she said to her partner.. I think I know her?  He looked over..
Now Dear, who would we know in this little hamlet?   But, she insisted…No ,I understand that, but,
Something about her is familiar?    Nodding, eat your food Dear…we’ll miss our Stage…

As the couple got up to leave, she passed close to the table where Kitty and the Sheriff were seated…
Then she stopped…Excuse me?… I can’t help but think I know you?   But, in Kitty’s current sight..
The woman wasn’t sure….  Then, the sheriff , interjected… Ma’am I’m sure you don’t this woman is my prisoner…  Kitty’s tempered flared..     I am not!   I told you who I am ..now if you would just do your job?
There were also two men watching, the event taking place…. They overheard Kitty and The Sheriff’s whole conversation…. So when they were leaving….just as they passed by them…Well, there you are darlin’!
We were wondering where you got off too… Kitty now looking surprised… What? Who are you?
Oh, now Honey.. I know we had a spat…But, I’m sorry Girl.. But you know the little one need the Momma!
Now wide eyed.. and lost for words…. He grabbed her and Kissed her…   Sheriff did my Doll face cause you much trouble?    She is under arrest ..the sheriff said.   Whatcha do darlin?   Nothing!.. and I’m not your darling! She said with her teeth clinched.    Looking up to the sky…OH, Cowboy.. where are you when I need you?  Maybe I should have cancelled this trip…?   UGH!    Can this get any worse?


As they left, the Sheriff still holding on to Kitty… the two Men followed… Sheriff, I don’t know these men… Honestly I have no idea who they are…. Just as they entered the Office.. The two followed…
Both Kitty and the Sheriff stopped talking when they heard the Click of the Gun barrel…snap back!
