50
00:03:31,479 --> 00:03:34,439
Speaker 3: Sheriff crystals and discovered the bodies of his night deputy

51
00:03:34,439 --> 00:03:36,560
in the courthouse janitor. When he came into his office

52
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,159
at eight o'clock, he immediately telephoned the Texas Rangers, and

53
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,919
a short time later, Ranger Jace Pearson arrived.

54
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,879
Speaker 2: Jane Piers, I am I glad to see you quite

55
00:03:46,879 --> 00:03:51,120
a while, Sir Chase, is a bad train anything involving Bascom?

56
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:52,400
Is you got any line on him?

57
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:52,439
Speaker 10: In?

58
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 9: No?

59
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 2: Apparently slipped out of town of Foot. We don't even

60
00:03:55,599 --> 00:03:58,280
know what direction he took, probably east up Rocky Valley.

61
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,039
That's the quickest way into open country. Ranger Harris was

62
00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:04,560
ordered out on this assignment with me, Oh, where is he?

63
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,520
I dropped him with the walkie talkie at two mile

64
00:04:06,599 --> 00:04:09,000
Bridge on the way in. He's riding through the brush

65
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,039
now cutting for a trail. You know, to find out

66
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,479
pretty soon if Bascom's still afoot, and it isn't. The

67
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,199
highway patrols already closed the main roads into this area.

68
00:04:17,639 --> 00:04:20,000
Soon as we get a localization, mounted units will move

69
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,040
in an attempt to close the gaps. We'll get him, Sheriff.

70
00:04:23,319 --> 00:04:24,079
Speaker 10: I sure hope, so.

71
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 2: Chair's office holds speed.

72
00:04:27,959 --> 00:04:30,319
Speaker 6: This is Bob McDougall out on Route seven. A man

73
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:31,959
just tole my truck out of the field where I

74
00:04:32,079 --> 00:04:32,360
was working.

75
00:04:32,439 --> 00:04:33,199
Speaker 2: You got a description.

76
00:04:33,399 --> 00:04:34,879
Speaker 6: I didn't get a very good look at him.

77
00:04:34,879 --> 00:04:37,879
Speaker 8: He was fear across the field, A medium sized fellow wearing.

78
00:04:37,639 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 6: A pair of weight coveralls. Edit toward predo.

79
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 2: What kind of truck?

80
00:04:40,759 --> 00:04:43,519
Speaker 6: A red half turn pick up forty six model? Anything else?

81
00:04:43,519 --> 00:04:44,199
Who identify it?

82
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,160
Speaker 8: It's kind of beat up, grills broken out in front

83
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:48,160
and that's enough.

84
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 2: Whereasm?

85
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 7: Do you know who it was?

86
00:04:49,959 --> 00:04:51,879
Speaker 2: I think so, but you better get in as soon

87
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,560
as you can and find a theft report. Just the

88
00:04:53,639 --> 00:04:56,800

Speaker 7: Subject Jack Basco refused to pay for gasoline. He turned

169
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,879
south from Route seven at Perry's filling station. You have

170
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:10,679
Vicinity next.

171
00:09:10,799 --> 00:09:12,759
Speaker 2: Perry's down there at the foot of the hill. Ten

172
00:09:12,799 --> 00:09:15,960
to four Unit ten approaching Perries now, will keep kt

173
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:20,279
XA advised Unit ten player ten four kt x A Austin.

174
00:09:20,879 --> 00:09:26,279
There's Jim Perry out in front, flagging is down now. Hush,

175
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,840
I just got held up there, we know for some gasoline.

176
00:09:29,879 --> 00:09:32,559
You know had the radio gym. That's the attorney took

177
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:32,960
over there.

178
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:34,039
Speaker 6: Yeah, the Big Wash Road.

179
00:09:34,159 --> 00:09:34,679
Speaker 2: How long ago?

180
00:09:34,879 --> 00:09:36,799
Speaker 6: Maybe ten minutes? Pretty good start on us, Jase.

181
00:09:37,039 --> 00:09:39,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, the kind of country there is down here. Let's

182
00:09:39,919 --> 00:09:52,080
don't let him get any more. We found the red

183
00:09:52,159 --> 00:09:54,360
picked up abandoned in the sandy bed of Big Wash,

184
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,159
four miles from the highway, and radio the surrounding units.

185
00:09:57,639 --> 00:10:00,519
John Bascom's tracks led straight into broken c entry beyond

186
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,919
the wash. He couldn't go any further than the truck,

187
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,559
and either can. We looks like work for the horses

188
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,159
from here on, Ed, Let's get him out now.

189
00:10:09,159 --> 00:10:19,399
Speaker 12: I'll give you a hand, Jeans, easy boy, easy, so

190
00:10:20,639 --> 00:10:21,799
got to got the walkie talkie.

191
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 3: Ed.

192
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,039
Speaker 2: We ought to be able to contact any units south

193
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:25,919
of Dry Creek with it pretty soon. Yeah, I believe

194
00:10:25,919 --> 00:10:29,200
you're right. Hey, you boys, leave me a foot jees huh,

195
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,960
you can take the unit back, Sheriff. Maybe join the

196
00:10:32,039 --> 00:10:35,600
highway patrol of Dry Creek. Bascom's headed southwest. He probably

197
00:10:35,639 --> 00:10:38,399
figures to slip past the roadblocks. He might be making

198
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:43,200
a wide detail over toward highway. Limbs. Might be all set, Okay,

199
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,440
anything else I can do? Yeah, keep your fingers crossed

200
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,840
and I will tail and bask him in. Going to

201
00:10:48,879 --> 00:10:51,879
be any cinch for you boys. He desperate, armed, and

202
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:56,200
he knows his trails. Bridg I know, easy boy, a

203
00:10:56,279 --> 00:10:58,440
good measure. I don't like the looks of those clouds

204
00:10:58,519 --> 00:11:01,600
over there. All we need is a storm to wipe

205
00:11:01,639 --> 00:11:04,159
out what little sign he may leave. Well, let's get

206
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:08,120
started as here. Good honey, thanks sir.

207
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 1: You are listening to Tales of the Texas Rangers, starring

208
00:11:28,159 --> 00:11:32,159
Joel McCrae as Ranger Jace Pearson. And now we continue

209
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,919
with tonight's case, The White Suit, an authentic story from

210
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,799
the files of the Texas Rangers.

211
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 2: By four o'clock, Ed Harris and I were deep into

212
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,320
the rough country south of Big Wash. We'd continually cut

213
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,279
back and forth for Bascomb's tracks, finding them and losing

214
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:01,120
them again with slow work, covering five to his one one.

215
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:02,720
He steadily build up his lead on us.

216
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 8: He was in fernally clever, take it easy, going down here, Jason,

217
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:10,759
This canyon wall, with any steeper would be hanging by

218
00:12:10,799 --> 00:12:11,200
a collar.

219
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,759
Speaker 2: Oo oo charcoal. Hey, wait a minute of head, bull up?

220
00:12:14,799 --> 00:12:15,399
Speaker 6: Whoa boy.

221
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,879
Speaker 2: Now, Jason bask him. Didn't slide down here like we thought. No,

222
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,159
Look there's the rock he pushed over from the rim

223
00:12:24,279 --> 00:12:26,960
to make the skid marks we've been following. See, it's

224
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,320
the lava like the cap on the rim, different from

225
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,159
the rest of the rock down here. So we've got

226
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:32,399
to climb back to the top.

227
00:12:32,879 --> 00:12:35,399
Speaker 6: Had a sworn he started down here to cross this canyon.

228
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 2: That's what he wanted us to think, anything to cost

229
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,120
this time. Trouble is, we got to follow out every

230
00:12:41,159 --> 00:12:43,639
one of these blind trails he's leaving us. Any one

231
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:44,679
of them may be the McCoy.

232
00:12:44,759 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, he'll be the California before we ever get out

233
00:12:46,879 --> 00:12:47,720
of these bad lands.

234
00:12:47,759 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 2: And he isn't the California yet. Don't worry. He's working

235
00:12:50,799 --> 00:12:54,799
as hard as we are. Up charge, Listen up, Come on,

236
00:12:54,919 --> 00:12:59,559
red Hawk, maybe I could go, come on watch it.

237
00:12:59,639 --> 00:13:01,840
Ad Ugh, what a climb.

238
00:13:01,879 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 6: It's getting late. I got that sun Jash.

239
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:11,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, Hey, that low sun has got its advantages. Take

240
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:13,559
a look at that slope over there across.

241
00:13:13,279 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 8: The canyon, that patch of sand past that big mesquite Yeah,

242
00:13:17,279 --> 00:13:20,960
tracks footprints. Then Bascom did cross the canyon after all.

243
00:13:20,919 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 2: Probably someplace a little downstream.

244
00:13:22,919 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 8: Jase, how come we didn't see those tracks when we

245
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,360
started down here from up before? He couldn't have made them?

246
00:13:27,399 --> 00:13:29,679
Since then, we aren't that close behind him.

247
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 2: Oh the tracks were there before, we just didn't see them.

248
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,960
Now the sun's blowing up to throw longer shadows into

249
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,720
the Prince's boots. Made thinks them twice as visible.

250
00:13:37,919 --> 00:13:41,039
Speaker 6: Yeah, we better start looking for a place to cross ourselves.

251
00:13:41,759 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 2: Now, let's find a little higher first. I'm worried about

252
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:45,840
that storm. The way it's filing up.

253
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:46,879
Speaker 6: That red horse.

254
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 7: Claws not getting black.

255
00:13:49,519 --> 00:13:52,279
Speaker 2: Cage probably loaded with static. So you better try to

256
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,759
make radio contact with a walkie talkie while we can.

257
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,200
We need to work from this high ground to get

258
00:13:57,279 --> 00:13:58,559
through general call case.

259
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,559
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I suppose you try it now.

260
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:06,440
Speaker 8: Yeah, Unit nine oh two the unit and range Unit

261
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:07,159
nine oh two.

262
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 2: The unit and range Unit eight to Unit nine oh two,

263
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:16,320
go ahead, Unit nine o two. Oh boy, jes ooh charper.

264
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,679
Unit eight to Unit nine oh two, go ahead. Unit

265
00:14:20,799 --> 00:14:24,480
nine oh two requests the location of Unit eight. Unit

266
00:14:24,559 --> 00:14:27,879
eight is at the intersection of County five and the

267
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:32,720
State eleven, ten miles south of Dry Creek. Then four

268
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,559
Unit eight is now too far north. Fugitives still bearing

269
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,759
toward Highway eleven, approximately twelve miles south and east of

270
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,840
Dry Creek, suggests Unit eight moves south about five miles.

271
00:14:44,759 --> 00:14:46,279
Speaker 7: Unit eight ten four.

272
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 2: Unit nine oh two has had no direct contact with

273
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,360
fugitive but is following an identifiable trail. Will report any change,

274
00:14:53,879 --> 00:14:56,879
Please relay to other units. Unit nine oh two player

275
00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,360
Unit eight ten four.

276
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 6: Look, Jason, Bask.

277
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 8: You may stay on the other side of the canyon,

278
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,200
or he may double back to this side. Why don't

279
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,159
we save ourselves a lot of riding and split up

280
00:15:07,159 --> 00:15:07,480
for a bit.

281
00:15:07,679 --> 00:15:08,759
Speaker 2: And I'll be a bad idea.

282
00:15:08,919 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 6: I'll take the canyon floor. It's sandy. Tracks will be

283
00:15:11,279 --> 00:15:13,080
easy to spot there, and you can work.

284
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,759
Speaker 2: Along this rim, all right, but watch yourself ed, you'll

285
00:15:15,799 --> 00:15:16,799
be in the open down man.

286
00:15:16,919 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 6: Just let bask him show himself once. That's all I want.

287
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,879
Come on, red horse and going down, eat eating, see

288
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,080
a kid to get to the bottom before you start day, Okay.

289
00:15:35,039 --> 00:15:38,159
Speaker 2: Something about a man sharpens the hunter's senses. I sat

290
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,720
on the rim for long moments, watching in Harris descend

291
00:15:40,759 --> 00:15:44,080
that canyon wall, feeling danger without being able to identify it.

292
00:15:44,799 --> 00:15:47,399
Suddenly smoked blossom behind a rock in the opposite rim.

293
00:15:47,759 --> 00:15:49,720
I saw Harris sag in his saddle before the horse

294
00:15:49,759 --> 00:15:52,600
carried him out of sight. Him by distance. Came the

295
00:15:52,679 --> 00:16:01,720
lanking sound of a shark. Go charp, go war, all.

296
00:16:01,679 --> 00:16:24,679
Speaker 11: Right, a rock through the word. He's coverhead here.

297
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 7: He was right up there, but he beat it. I

298
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:29,480
think I hit him.

299
00:16:29,879 --> 00:16:31,759
Speaker 6: Those white cover offs make some target.

300
00:16:32,039 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 2: I'll be realizing that by now, and he'll really run.

301
00:16:34,879 --> 00:16:36,480
How bad are you hit? Flesh?

302
00:16:36,519 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 7: You warn't clean?

303
00:16:37,639 --> 00:16:39,879
Speaker 6: Just above the old boy here, Help me get this

304
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:41,240
kerchief on it. I'll be all right.

305
00:16:41,679 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 2: Pull your sleeve all the way.

306
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:47,279
Speaker 6: Yeah, he would pick my left arm. How do you know?

307
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 2: I was a south wall and something. We may be

308
00:16:49,559 --> 00:16:54,039
asking him right sudden? You okay? Now, yeah, I pick

309
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,320
up his trail on the rim. We'll have to watch sharp.

310
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,720
It's gonna try to keep that white suit out of sight.

311
00:16:59,519 --> 00:17:00,600
Now the way this close to.

312
00:17:00,679 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 6: Him, come on, right on, show that charco easy to

313
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:19,920
more onto the top, come on out.

314
00:17:21,039 --> 00:17:21,279
Speaker 7: Whoa.

315
00:17:22,599 --> 00:17:25,279
Speaker 8: I had a fat chance of picking up anybody's trail here,

316
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,559
Jason heard of elephant's.

317
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,319
Speaker 6: Gonna cross this blue shade without leaving a trace.

318
00:17:29,599 --> 00:17:34,640
Speaker 2: Maybe And look here you see them? Yeah, and it's

319
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,000
the whole trail of them. As don't go after anything

320
00:17:37,039 --> 00:17:39,640
in this country. They can't eat. I'd see what these

321
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:45,680
are having for supper. Here we are on this piece

322
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:46,119
of shell.

323
00:17:46,319 --> 00:17:47,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, blood, and.

324
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,839
Speaker 8: Then I did nail them. We got a wounded animal

325
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,319
on our hands. Jason may let go at us and

326
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:54,799
behind any of these brush clumps.

327
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:56,400
Speaker 2: And I don't think he's hurt so bad he won't

328
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,119
keep on running. There's just a few drops here. I'm

329
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,440
afraid you just that was pretty long rain, and it won't.

330
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:03,839
Speaker 8: Be the next time I get him in my sights.

331
00:18:03,839 --> 00:18:06,680

he's gone.

375
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,279
Speaker 6: Do not run to which way he goes?

376
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:19,079
Speaker 7: How do I know?

377
00:20:20,039 --> 00:20:22,279

man to be alive. See, I knows she better get

380
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:33,480
some more clothes before that storm hits. You aren't exactly

381
00:20:33,599 --> 00:20:38,200
dressed for bad weather. O A steady chark. Looks like

382
00:20:38,319 --> 00:20:39,599
our surprise didn't come off.

383
00:20:39,799 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 6: N Let's get moving before Bascom builds up a lead.

384
00:20:42,559 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 2: On us again. Yeah, let's go right horse, Harris and

385
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,440
I picked up the trail shortly ask him. Managed to

386
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,519
stay ahead of us, using a large bag of tricks

387
00:20:58,599 --> 00:21:01,160
to keep out of sight, even if he couldn't shake us.

388
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,400
When the sun set behind towering thunderclouds, we were working

389
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,759
our way down a wide aaron belly, keeping some distance apart.

390
00:21:09,799 --> 00:21:12,079
Speaker 6: Hey say, share the tracks again, pick.

391
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:18,440
Speaker 2: Them up charcoal. Yeah, ooh ooh boys, I heading right

392
00:21:18,519 --> 00:21:21,000
down there in the valley. Precious daisies too.

393
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,519
Speaker 8: Yeah, no blow sand drifted into them at all. We

394
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,240
better try that general call again and to report opposition.

395
00:21:26,599 --> 00:21:28,680
Look at the direction those tracks are taken. They've been

396
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:29,480
swinging that way.

397
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,559
Speaker 6: The last half hour. Yeah, I noticed that hit it

398
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:32,440
almost du eash.

399
00:21:32,519 --> 00:21:35,559
Speaker 2: Now Bascomb's pulling another big red herring on us. He

400
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,039
made for Highway eleven long enough for us to report

401
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,559
it and set up interception for him there, and then he.

402
00:21:40,599 --> 00:21:43,599
Speaker 8: Swings straight east for Highway thirteen. So that catches us

403
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:44,519
with our units.

404
00:21:44,279 --> 00:21:44,759
Speaker 6: Down, don't it.

405
00:21:45,039 --> 00:21:48,079
Speaker 2: Bascomb's gambling that it does. And I'll try the call

406
00:21:49,599 --> 00:21:52,920
unit nine oh two to unit and range nine oh

407
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,920
two to unit and range nine oh two to unit

408
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:57,440
and range w.

409
00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,880
Speaker 6: It's no use, Jay, You can't raise anybody.

410
00:21:59,519 --> 00:22:01,799
Speaker 2: With too far out now whether it isn't helping him

411
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,599
either on this lower ground, looks like we're in for

412
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:06,039
real soaking before night.

413
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,599
Speaker 6: Yeah, baskuom can't possibly be much ahead of us.

414
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 8: Maybe we can tree him before he gets through to

415
00:22:11,759 --> 00:22:13,880
the highway, handle him on our own from here on.

416
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 2: You can't risk it in if he slips us and

417
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,039
gets through to make a ride with somebody or steal

418
00:22:18,079 --> 00:22:19,240
another car, you'll be gone.

419
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,240
Speaker 8: And I guess here's where we separate. Then I'm kind

420
00:22:22,279 --> 00:22:23,440
of out of the running with this year.

421
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 2: Bum Arm.

422
00:22:24,559 --> 00:22:26,599
Speaker 8: Give me the walkie talking and I'll double back till

423
00:22:26,599 --> 00:22:28,359
I'm in range of the units on Highway eleven.

424
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:33,799
Speaker 6: Again. That's good. It'll ride all right like that. Anything

425
00:22:33,839 --> 00:22:34,759
special for the boys.

426
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,799
Speaker 2: Ask him to request coverage on Highway thirteen all the

427
00:22:37,839 --> 00:22:40,960
way to preto. Keep trying till you get through. I'll

428
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:41,839
stick on his trail.

429
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 8: I'll have a really indicating XA in half an hour.

430
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 2: As soon as you do, you better head out toward

431
00:22:46,319 --> 00:22:48,640
dry creek and get that arm look there. I'll wait

432
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,880
till we've got bask him. Good luck, Jase, same to you. Ahead,

433
00:22:52,039 --> 00:23:00,640
come on ye twenty minutes later than he instructed, with

434
00:23:00,759 --> 00:23:04,960
cloud burst intensity bringing complete darkness, not before John Bastu's

435
00:23:05,039 --> 00:23:07,359
tracks led me on an adobe bench where sheep and

436
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:11,119
new raising. He'd removed his boots here, and his tracks

437
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,400
blended with a maze of other bare footprints left by

438
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:14,480
Mexican sheepherders.

439
00:23:15,039 --> 00:23:16,039
Speaker 10: I rode on slowly.

440
00:23:16,759 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 2: Suddenly a small rain drenched boy stepped out from the brush.

441
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:21,400
Charcoal nearly ran him down.

442
00:23:22,039 --> 00:23:27,519
Speaker 6: Oh whoa charpo, steady ball, Hey you're there, Hey boy,

443
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,720

444
00:23:33,519 --> 00:23:35,799
Speaker 2: Ran like a frightened little rabbit. Light winked as the

445
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,079
door open and closed the door to an adobe shack.

446
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,920
So I approached. I saw the blinds were tightly drawn

447
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,440
almost to though, to prevent the leakage of any telltale

448
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,599
light from the candle burning dimmer inside.

449
00:23:47,319 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 10: Oh, charpo.

450
00:23:48,319 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 6: Who boy.

451
00:23:54,720 --> 00:24:02,799
Speaker 2: Over and up over an up, Jenny, Who are you

Speaker 6: How how can he seek?

456
00:24:09,559 --> 00:24:12,039
Speaker 2: He's very sick and your boy just ran in here.

457
00:24:12,319 --> 00:24:17,000
He was going to look for the Mamma go storm.

458
00:24:17,079 --> 00:24:17,640
Speaker 10: She spaed.

459
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 6: He frightened him, Senor, and.

460
00:24:20,319 --> 00:24:21,440
Speaker 2: Gave me a turn for a minute.

461
00:24:21,519 --> 00:24:21,680

00:24:22,039 --> 00:24:24,200
Speaker 2: Look, I need little help me. I would do anything

463
00:24:24,279 --> 00:24:27,319
till the Texas Ranger trailing a man, a very dangerous man.

464
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,160
You must have passed close to here about the time

465
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:30,839
the rain began. Where is he now?

466
00:24:31,079 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 7: We have seen nothing? Want he told me nobody, Senor.

469
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,680
woman was definitely afraid, but her eyes told me she

470
00:24:44,799 --> 00:24:47,359
wasn't afraid of me, of the storm, perhaps of the

471
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,359
sickness in her house, or of the.

472
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:51,599
Speaker 10: Blanket wrapped man lying on a bunk in the corner

473
00:24:51,599 --> 00:24:51,799
of the.

474
00:24:51,839 --> 00:24:54,680
Speaker 2: Room with his bare feet including toward me. The door

475
00:24:54,799 --> 00:24:56,599

00:25:20,559 --> 00:25:21,039
sick about.

481
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,319

Speaker 6: He's working your problem?

489

00:25:55,839 --> 00:25:59,680
toes all crowded together from wearing cowboy boots that it

492
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,119

493
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:03,359
him up enough to take him in.

Speaker 2: His sentence was carried out death in the electric chair.

498
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,720
And now here again is the star of our show.

499
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,240
Joel McCrae. One of the pleasures afforded us here in

500
00:26:48,319 --> 00:26:50,720
this show is the large number of letters we received

501
00:26:50,759 --> 00:26:54,720
asking for special information about the Texas Rangers. This week

502
00:26:54,759 --> 00:26:57,920
we received one an especially interesting letter which the writer

503
00:26:58,079 --> 00:27:00,960
said she had heard of an official ranger's prayer and

504
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:05,400
inquired if such a prayer actually existed. It does. The

505
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,960
prayer was written by Captain Pierre Bernard Hill, chaplain of

506
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,599
the Texas Rangers, and I should like you to hear it.

507
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:17,440
Oh God, whose end is justice, whose strength is all

508
00:27:17,559 --> 00:27:21,359
our stay, be near and bless my mission as I

509
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:26,480
go forth today. Let wisdom guide my actions, Let courage

510
00:27:26,599 --> 00:27:30,400
fill my heart, and help me Lord in every hour

511
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:36,279
to do a ranger's part. Protect when danger threatens, Sustain

512
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:40,440
when trails are rough, Help me to keep my standard high,

513
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:45,079
and smile at each rebuff. When night comes down upon me.

514
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:50,160
I pray thee Lord be nigh, whether on lonely scout

515
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:56,440
or camped under Texas sky, Keep me O God in life,

516
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:01,000
and when my days shall end, for give my sins

517
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,279
and take me in for jesus sake.

518
00:28:05,279 --> 00:28:20,839
Speaker 10: Amen. Good night, folks, Good night.

519
