interesting though never used expression which probably means with the absolute ability to kill a person at that very moment. You pulled out your pistol and you blew them both to hell. "To blow a person to hell" is a slangy way of saying to shoot and kill them. Only took a scratch yourself. In this case, a "scratch" is a slight cut or very minor injury. Well, I don’t recollect. A rare but still used way of saying to remember. What the hell is that to you? :: I like to know what kind of fellow I’m riding with, in case we get into a scrape and all. Note that "the hell" is added to Wh questions in order to show anger or other emotion. A "scrape" is a tearing of the skin from rubbing too much, though here it’s used to mean a dangerous situation. You boys are as crotchety as a couple old hens. "Crotchety" means easily irritated, ill-tempered or in a bad mood. A "hen" is a female chicken. This is a fun but never used expression! Actually then, Mr. Cochran was faster on the draw than the duck. To be "fast on the draw" is to be able to grab a gun from it’s holster (the leather pocket it sits in) and then shoot it very quickly. Being quick….don’t do no harm, but it don’t mean much next to being cool headed. A person who is "cool headed" remains calm and thoughtful, even during very dangerous or difficult situations. A man who’ll keep his head, and not get rattled under fire. If a man "keeps his head" in a stressful situation, he remains calm. To get "rattled" is to become nervous or shaken. To be "under fire" is to literally be shot at, or to face very strong criticism or pressure. Unless it’s a barn. A large wooden building for housing horses, cows and other animals. If somebody is shooting back at you….that will just flat rattle some folks. "To rattle" a person is to make them nervous or shaken up. Is it loaded? :: Wouldn’t do any good if it wasn’t. If a gun is "loaded," it has bullets in it and is ready to use. First, you got to cock it. "To cock" a gun is to set the hammer in place so it’s ready to shoot. You gotta point it. Note that "have got to"----->"gotta" in fast speech. Now all you gotta do is pull the trigger, Mister. "To pull the trigger" of a gun is to actually shoot it. You no-good god damn pig fucking whore. A very strong insult! "No-good" means, of course, all bad. A "whore" is a prostitute, few if any who would actually have sex with a pig! English Bob leaves Little Whiskey as Will, Ned and the Kid arrive, and soon Will finds himself facing the anger of Little Bill. You still think it will be easy to kill them cowboys? :: If we don’t drown first. "To drown" is to die in the water after being unable to breathe. Give these keys to the conductor and tell him he can lose old Bob’s cuffs as soon
