Now I confused my self a bit. Not sure which film we are in
here. ? With Clint Eastwood we are dealing with a hanging
and maybe even burial (probably improper in some way) and
"resurrection" as gunslinging revenge tough cool guy with a
devil's good aim. Paints the town red, literally, unless my
remebrancer is broken? With our Rev--it's [subj.] had I
been, I should still...

Only he is (Would have been) dreaming or unconscious from
drink and is (should have been)  "resurrected" without "Our
Savior" figuring so preeminently.
