One Hell of a Day
Rue came out of the room
She knew school would let out soon.
This has been one hell of day.
How to tell Josie? What would she say?

Lotta and Satchel had the crowd disbursed
She found Jujube paying Unger
from of the Casino's coin purse.

"MarySue had no one, so I thought we'd pay
To have her buried on Boot Hill. This has been
One hell of a day."
Rue thanked Jujube. "That was very kind."
But there was only one thing on her mind
There was a killer loose she must find.
Jasper came up wearing a frown.
He had just learned
what had went down.
"Poor Josie."

Rue nodded. "I fear once she learns about Jake.
She'll be eager to clear his name,
There is no risk she won't take."
"Petra needs more help at the stables.
She can offer to pay Josie under the table.
There we can get Josie to stay,
She'd probably leap at the chance
to help in some way.
Talk about one hell of a day."
Rue was relieved this would
Buy her some time.
She had to get to the Telegraph Office
She had to send a line.
She gave Jasper a kiss,
"Thank you for doing this."
"My pleasure, Ruechari."
Now she was off to send a message to Destiny.
