Bat Masterson (TV Series)

Incident in Leadville (1959)

Kathleen Crowley: Jo Hart

Quotes 

• Bat Masterson : Do you know anything about me, Miss Hart?

  Jo Hart : Enough to know what you stand for: violence, Mr. Masterson - the law unto yourself.

  Bat Masterson : The law is only a word unless it's backed up by the truth.

• Jo Hart : Bat, you know you don't have to go on. There's a job here for you, on the paper.

  Bat Masterson : No, I couldn't stay fixed yet - not for a while. Got more places to go to, things to do and see - but don't you think for a moment that I'm liable to forget what I learned here. Look, I've got printers ink in my blood, too. I may even begin to look at things differently from now on; sort of like a reporter. Someday, I may even have enough to write about.

• [last lines] 

  [Jo gives Bat a pencil] 

  Jo Hart : Bat, take this along with you.

  [Bat puts the pencil in his holster with his gun] 

  Bat Masterson : Both pack a lot of lead - go well together.

  [They shake hands, and Bat departs on his horse]
