AND WE DID HAVE A LONG GABFEST ! HE WAS GOING BLIND, COULD NO LONGER DRIVE, AND WAS PRETTY WELL STUCK AT HOME. STILL, HIS ATTITUDE WAS GOOD, WE TALKED AT LENGTH ABOUT HIS LAST VISIT HERE WITH US IN THE BLACK HILLS, AND SHOOTING UP A STORM WHILE HE WAS HERE. I MEAN TO TELL YOU, HE, HIS X-WIFE, AND THE TWO OF US WERE ALL OVER WESTERN SOUTH DAKOTA THAT TIME WOW !!! I TOOK HIM IN THE BACK DOOR OF THE BADLANDS AND EVERYTIME WE'D STOP TO SEE THINGS FOLKS WOULD GAWK AT A HIM, A HUGE SCOT IN FULL SCOTTISH REGALIA, KNIVES AND ALL. HE COULD ALSO CONCEAL NUMEROUS PISTOLS IN THAT BIG KILT. WHEN WE STOPPED AT THE INDIAN RUN RESTAURANT THERE SOUTH OF THE "ENTRANCE" OF THE BADLANDS THOSE INJUNS LOOKED AT HIM, LIKE HE WAS MONSTER. FROM AROUND CORNERS, WHISPERING AND POINTING. WE LAUGHED OURSELVES SILLY OVER THAT.
DOC HUDSON WAS A FINE FELLOW AND HIS PASSING IS A LOSS TO ALL OF US SIXGUNNERS. GLORY BE AND HALLELUJAH, MAY THE LORD BE MERCIFUL UPON YOUR SOUL, DOC.
