Brad Johnson: Deputy Sheriff Lofty Craig

Quotes 

• Ed Willis : I got held up again, that's what's wrong.

  Annie Oakley : Oh, Mr Ed Willis, here's his Deputy now. Lofty, Lofty.

  Deputy Sheriff Lofty Craig : What is it, Ed?

  Ed Willis : Two men. They jumped me just this side of Eagle Rock and got away with about $8,000 worth of gold concentrate that I was bringing from the mine to the railroad station... They wore masks. As they were going away, I took a couple of shots at them. I got the horse and I think I nicked the other fella's hat. Leastways it fell off.

• Deputy Sheriff Lofty Craig : Of all the crazy ideas I ever heard of. You going up to the Bolton mine. You could have got yourself killed.

  Annie Oakley : Well, Lofty, I do believe you worry about me.

  Deputy Sheriff Lofty Craig : Well, of course I do.

• Deputy Sheriff Lofty Craig : You see, a man's judgement is better in things like this. Well, I knew he wasn't telling the truth from the minute we nailed him.

  Annie Oakley : I'm sorry I argued with you, Lofty. I should have known you're much smarter about such things than I am.

  Deputy Sheriff Lofty Craig : I didn't mean that and you know it. You're plenty smart about a lot of things. But dealing with crooks is a man's job. You can't be sentimental.

  Annie Oakley : That's right. I suppose that's why you're such a good Deputy Sheriff.

• Deputy Sheriff Lofty Craig : The man we got locked up in there has been identified by Ed Willets. He's even got the hole in his hat that Ed put there.

  Annie Oakley : Oh, it could be a coincidence. I still don't think we've got the right man.
