Billy Hill....................................................................Father of the Bride

Jethro.........................................................................Groom

Rural, country church exterior. Wedding music is heard faintly in background. Billy and Jethro walk on screen wearing what passes for formal wear in the Hill Country. Billy walks behind Jethro pointing a shotgun at his back.

Billy

Hold up dere,’ son!

Jethro

What is it, Mister Hill?

Billy

Jethro, yer’ ‘bout to go in dere’ and get hitched to my baby girl. Do you think yer’ ready to start supportin’ a family?

Jethro

Why, no sir! I was only plannin’ on supportin’ yer’ daughter. The rest of you is gonna’ haf’ to fend for yerselves.’

Billy

(Waves shotgun.) Git!’

Wedding music swells as they enter church.

The End

Director’s note: All Billy Hill skits will open with a banjo playing the intro to "Dueling Banjos."
