Where you going, boy?

It's Luke Short's boy.

Where'd the boys go?

Boy, that is black gold, Texas tea.

Luke Short's boy was always looked on as the catch of the heels.

Come to think of it, Granny, I reckon Miss Jane ain't ever seen Luke's boy.

Oh, yes, I heard you speak of Luke Short's general store.

Is this Luke Jr.?

had yellow curls all over his head.

I remember when he was a boy and Pa used to cut his hair, the girls used to crowd around and scrap over the clippings.

This Pa had to take him out of school because the girls couldn't keep their minds on their studies.

Then he went to clerking in the store and Luke's business just doubled.

On Saturdays you couldn't get close to that store for the mamas and the daughters.

Used to come from 40, 50 miles away.

More than that, if they had a ride.

Oh, two ways about it.

A son-in-law you can be proud of, Jed.

He's here to marry Ellie?

Now, Granny, I ain't heard a word about that, and it ain't fair to get Ellie all steamed up over something that might not... They're here!

They're here!
