Quotes 

• Little Bill Daggett : It's been a long time, Bob. You run out of Chinamen?

  English Bob : Little Bill, well I thought you was, well I thought that you were dead. I see you've shaved your chin whiskers off.

  Little Bill Daggett : I was tasting the soup two hours after I ate it.

  English Bob : Well, actually, what I heard was that you fell off your horse, drunk of course, and that you broke your bloody neck.
