1:05:01
Sheriff, did you ever hear
about the fix a man was in...
1:05:05
when he was comin' down the road
with a pitchfork on his shoulder...
1:05:09
and a farmer's dog ran out
and bit him on the leg?
1:05:12
No, sir. That must have been
out of my district.
1:05:16
Well, then you probably don't recall...
1:05:19
that in defending himself...
1:05:22
he stuck one of the prongs of the pitchfork
into the dog and killed him.
1:05:27
The farmer got pretty mad.
1:05:30
"What made you kill my dog?" he said.
1:05:33
Well, the fellow said,
"What made your dog bite me?"
1:05:37
"Well," the farmer says, "why didn't you
go after him with the other end?"
1:05:42
To which the man replied...
1:05:44
"Well, why didn't your dog
come at me with the other end?"
1:05:48
Pretty good, Gil.
1:05:57
Abe, tell 'em the one
about the mule!
1:05:59
Order.! Order.!
1:06:01
Get going, Lincoln.
1:06:05
Now, Sheriff, let's just suppose
that my two defendants here...
1:06:09
were like that man
with a pitchfork...
1:06:12
only, let's say, they've got a knife.
1:06:15
And Scrub White
was the farmer's dog...
1:06:17
only instead of teeth,
he's got a pistol.
1:06:22
Well, now, wouldn't you say
it was a matter of self-defense...
1:06:25
to use that blade...
1:06:27
so long as Scrub didn't come at 'em
with the other end of the pistol?
1:06:31
Your Honor, I object...
1:06:34
and move that these remarks
be stricken from the record.
1:06:37
Counsel is presenting an argument.
1:06:40
The counsel's remarks
will be stricken from the record.
1:06:44
The jury will disregard them.
1:06:46
Now, you jurors watch out.
Don't remember about that dog.
1:06:51
- That's all.
- Just a moment.
1:06:57
You don't -
