"Ain't ya'll already earned it? Near as I can tell, all fights you've thrown in with always had yer side winnin'. 'Sides, you may be rank 'n file in Heaven, but down here amongst the sinners, yer lofty as y'all can git. Don't go sayin' yer not worthy of nothin', cuz y'are." A nice cowboy peptalk.

"I'll keep yer aid in mind too. I dunno how much I can git away with callin' you back in Castlegar. Seein' an angel would start riots fer sure. At LEAST two gangs would prolly start torchin' things and kickin' up a fuss. And if two get goin', ain't long a'fore the rest start feelin' the heat." Politics are complicated back where Jesse comes from.
