Claire Carleton: Lena Biggs

Quotes 

• Rowdy Yates : Ma'am, that stage with the mail was due yesterday.

  Lena Biggs : Don't you get your hopes all raised up, Sonny. Just tell yourself it's due in some time this month and you won't be disappointed.

  Rowdy Yates : We don't make more than two mail stops on a trail drive. Letters are all a man has to remind him there's more than steers and drovers in this world.

  Lena Biggs : I been running this office since my man died five years ago, and I ain't yet got to see that stage in on time.

  Rowdy Yates : Boss said to wait so I'll wait. Hey, let me tote that thing for you, Ma'am. You'll go straining yourself.

  Lena Biggs : [She stands there holding the barrel]  You wouldn't want to Indian wrestle, would you, Boy?

  Rowdy Yates : Oh, no. No. Thanks for asking.

  Lena Biggs : Why don't you go get yourself some breakfast, Sonny. You make me nervous loafing around looking like a hang-dog.

  [She wanders off carrying the barrel. Rowdy attempts to lift another barrel but can barely move it. He rubs his stomach deciding that breakfast is the better alternative]
