- “If there's any killing to be done, Dan just sees to it. It's done pleasantly. Is that it?” 11:57 · “And as town supervisor, I appointed him marshal. Still right. Well, does that give me the right to ask him to watch his step or not?” 12:09

Three people stand in a saloon, discussing the marshal's duties and past appointment. One man, wearing a star, is addressed about his actions and past circumstances.
“See that pretty little star? And who put it there? You did. You did.” 11:40 · “with instructions to keep this town peaceful, and not let trailhands and saloon keepers get out of hand. But I didn't tell them to drive business away.” 11:44 automatic transcript, may be wrong
The record
No renewal found An automated finding, not a verdict. A renewal would have appeared in the Copyright Office's renewal registrations 27 to 29 years after the term began. Those volumes are loaded and our parse of them found no matching renewal. If that is right, a work published 1931–1963 that was not renewed entered the public domain at the end of its 28th year; the volumes are OCR of old print, and the method page reports how often the parse has been found to miss one. Evidence dossier. The finding concerns the US copyright record for the film; it is not clearance for any use, and this page's annotation is machine output.
