Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  [after Annie races by practicing her trick riding, Tagg approaches Lofty who's napping nearby] 

  Tagg Oakley : Say, Lofty, why aren't you watchin' Annie?

  Deputy Sheriff Lofty Craig : Oh, I've seen Annie 'Roman Ride' before. I'll see her do it again at one of the fairs.

  Tagg Oakley : What are you doin' out here while she's practicin'?

  Deputy Sheriff Lofty Craig : I'm supposed to help her if she gets in trouble - I guess. Have you ever known your sister to get into any trouble she can't get out of all by herself?

• Abner Harkey : Well, I reckon I better pitch in and help catch 'em no count outlaws.

  Tagg Oakley : Were you a lawman back in Mississippi?

  Abner Harkey : Well, no, no. Not exactly. But I reckon whatever needs doing, I can do it once I set my mind to it.

  Deputy Sheriff Lofty Craig : Are all you folks from Mississippi so modest?

  Abner Harkey : No, sir, we're not. Why do you ask?
