- Michael Karns: But Jacob, the grave isn't deep enough!
- Ben Johnson: It's isn't just a rule of the church...it's the law of the open trails. Graves must be six feet deep and heaped with stones to protect it from wild animals. There must be a cross. I can't leave my son like this, Jacob!
- Pete Black: All right, then stay here and bury him yourself!
- Mr. Brody, Undertaker: By the way, Reverend, I'm the undertaker. The only silk-lined hearse west of Independence. I'm on the way to the cemetery now. I have a little trouble gettin' the pallbearers out of town, ah, on account of the saloon, you know. Once we get 'em out in the open, I can bury a man real fast.
- Pop Brennan: [to his wife, who is engrossed in her knitting] Darn it, Mom! Can't you stop knitting that baby thing long enough to say somethin'? Besides, folks might get the wrong idea. They might think it's for us.
- Mom Brennan: Hah! One look at you and they'd know different.
