- Bill Doolin: Is Mrs. Doolin here?
- Nellie Cashman: Why you must be Bill Doolin. Hello, I'm so glad to know you. Katie has spoken of you so often.
- Bill Doolin: Is she here?
- Nellie Cashman: Why, no she isn't. I think she left with that friend of yours... the man who brought the message that you wouldn't be on the one o'clock stage.
- Bill Doolin: I was on the stage and I sent no message!
- William Clinton: My boy, Ab, is up on a murder charge. They say he killed a man. Oh, he did it, but he isn't going to hang. They've only got one witness - the sheriff - and if he doesn't get to court, they've got no case. I want you to see that the sheriff doesn't testify.
- Bill Doolin: I'm not doing your dirty work.
- William Clinton: Maybe I didn't make it clear. It'll be your wife or the sheriff - one or the other.
- Bill Doolin: Why me? Why not him?
- William Clinton: This is a job for a man, not a boy.
- Joe Clinton: What do you mean? I can take care of that sheriff!
- William Clinton: Have you seen those graves out on Boot Hill? A lot of 'em are filled with men who thought they were better than the sheriff.
- Harris Claibourne: You're a stubborn mule!
- Sheriff Clay Hollister: Mule, huh? Print that and I'll sue you for libel.
- Harris Claibourne: I might just win.
- Sheriff Clay Hollister: [indicating William Clinton] Can you identify him as the man who plotted the whole thing?
- [Doolin nods, bends to sign the criminal complain and reconsiders]
- Bill Doolin: Nah. I've been to jail. I can't be responsible for putting a man behind bars, no matter what he's tried to do to me.
- Sheriff Clay Hollister: Maybe it doesn't matter. He's got a conscience.
- [last lines]
- Harris Claibourne: [narrating] Old Man Clinton went home without his sons. Tombstone never saw him again.
