To: Shooter 2.5
Outstanding dialog!

Doc Holliday: In Vino Veritas.
[In wine is truth. - Meaning - “When I’m drinking, I speak my mind.”]
Johnny Ringo: Age Quod Agis.
[Do what you do. - Meaning - “Do what you do best.”]
Doc Holliday: Credat Judaeus Apella, Non Ego. The Jew Apella may believe it, not I. [Meaning, “Oh I don’t believe drinking is what I do best.”]
Johnny Ringo: Eventus Stultorum Magister.
[Events are the teachers of fools. - Meaning - “Fools have to learn by experience.”]
Doc Holliday: In Pace Requiescat.
[Rest In Peace - Meaning - “It’s Your Funeral!”]

Thanks for that, always wondered what that exchange was.

Another tidbit. The reference of Huckleberry was a cooking term for that final added spice to complete the dish. It basically told Johnny Ringo that Doc was just the person he needed to finish him off.
It’s not a term for a pallbearer as previously thought.
