Martha: Your face has been all over the place for years, Porter, on Wanted Posters, and in newspapers. You've become quite famous in your own right. Look at this poster of you, you've got long hair and a big old beard. What happened to all of it?
Porter: Well, funny thing about that. The Prophet Joseph told me that as long as I didn't cut my hair or beard I'd be protected so I wouldn't die. There were times we could find lots of bullet holes in my vest or coat, but none ever hit me. Well, about 10 years after that promise, Agnes Smith grew very ill and she lost all her hair. She was out in San Francisco trying to recover, so I cut off all my hair and had a wig made for her. I think it made her feel better, anyway.
