"But how am I to catch him? How am I even to find him?" "You wait till the sun so; then black fellow burn more beef. Then I see the smoke; then I catch him. You go fetch the make-thunder with two mouths. When he see him that make him honest a good deal." Off galloped George and returned with his double-barreled gun in about an hour and a half.
They took Johnny Behind the Deuce there and set guards at both ends. Wyatt Earp remained alone out in the middle of the main street just below the corner. He held a double-barreled shotgun over the crook of his arm. The ugly sound which rises from a mob came into the deserted thoroughfare; the swift tramp of many feet, the growl of many voices.
At nine o'clock at night he loaded a double-barreled gun with slugs, fished out a pair of handcuffs, got a ship's lantern, summoned his quartermaster, and went ashore. He said: "Do you see that ship there at the dock?" "Ay-ay, sir." "It's the Venus." "Ay-ay, sir." "You you know me." "Ay-ay, sir." "Very well, then. Take the lantern. Carry it just under your chin.
His clothes lay about the room, and on a table in the corner, where writing materials stood, were various letters and bills made out in his name.

"Captain! are you going to let them take us out of the wood before we have hunted it for that scoundrel?" "Yes, I am. Look here, Jem, we are four, and he is one, but a double-barreled gun is an awkward enemy in a dark wood. No, Jem, we will outwit him to the last. We will clear the wood and get back to the camp. He doesn't know we have got a clew to him.
In the packs were two more rifles of the same kind, two double-barreled, breech-loading shotguns, thousands of cartridges, several revolvers, two strong axes, medicines, extra blankets, and, in truth, everything needed by a little army of two on the march. Boyd, a man of vast experience in the wilderness, had selected the outfit and he was proud of its completeness.
The boats, seeing there was no possibility of recovering the bodies of the five who were killed, were ordered to return at once to the ships from which they had only been absent an hour.
