Craig Belden
- Craig Belden: [trying to plead for his son] How can we settle this, Matt?
- Marshal Matt Morgan: The law's gotta settle it, Craig. Not us.
- Craig Belden: I saved your life once. You owe me that. You owe me one life.
- Marshal Matt Morgan: I remember you saved my life. But he took a life! He killed a woman! Just for the fun of it! Just...
- Craig Belden: Taking my boy ain't gonna bring your wife back.
- Marshal Matt Morgan: My wife or somebody else's makes no difference. I took an oath for this job. The oath says bring him in. That's what I'll do.
- Craig Belden: What do you want me to do? You want me to beg, Matt? Alright, Matt. I'll beg. He's all I got. Matt, maybe it was *my* fault. You know, it ain't easy to raise a boy without a mother, Matt.
- Marshal Matt Morgan: [coldly] Yeah. I know, Craig.
- Craig Belden: You're leavin' on the next train. I own the sheriff! I own this town! I own every man in it! You're leavin' on the next train, Matt!
- Marshal Matt Morgan: All right, Craig. The last train leaves at 9:00. I'll be on it... but there'll be two men with me, and one of them'll have a cut on his cheek.
- Craig Belden: Suppose I could locate them for you?
- Marshal Matt Morgan: I'd take them both back to Pawley. They'll stand trial for rape and murder.
- Craig Belden: You leave that boy alone! This is my son you're talking about.
- Marshal Matt Morgan: No, Craig. It's my wife we're talking about.
- Craig Belden: What about Petey? You ain't getting out of this alive. Now you know that. That boy is going to be an orphan. You thought about that?
- Marshal Matt Morgan: You've already got me dead. How'd I die? The only way I could die today is for you to kill me and that's a problem... Your problem.
- Marshal Matt Morgan: [after an ambush fails and Craig misses him with a bucket] I oughta kill you for that.
- Craig Belden: Why don't you? Why don't you kill me?
- Marshal Matt Morgan: You saved my life. I paid you back. But from here on in, they're all free shots.
