Pemberton: Hell, that dog's bigger than that. I thought you said there were panthers here.

Galloway: I ain't seen a panther in these mountains for nine years.

Pemberton: What about the carcass we found up in Noland? Something mauled that.

Pemberton: You find me an honest-to-God panther to hunt, and I'll give you a $20 gold piece.

Pemberton: Well, I want one.

Sheriff McDowell: The logging barons always cry "jobs" and "free enterprise," but the truth is, you barely pay enough to put food on the table!

Pemberton: Oh, we pay more than any job these men can get, and that's why there's a line fifty-deep every time there's an opening.

Sheriff McDowell: Openings? Yes, you always have openings, don't you, Mr. Pemberton? Because your camps have killed more men than the war between the States.

Galloway: It was an accident.

Sheriff McDowell: How do you know that?

Galloway: He ain't a good enough shot to do it on purpose.
