Ooh, world building.
I have wondered about True's reputation. People tend to be pretty bold around him, but the man in the bottom panel seems to have a very good idea of what's coming his way, and where True's opinions fall.

Man is the size and weight of a bull, and as ornery as one, too.

Interesting how the woman asks her son to go in, as if it were deemed more appropriate at the time for a boy to enter a saloon than for a woman.
