The marshal helps Easton frim embarrass as Mr. Easton meets the beautiful lady he knew and is an acquaintance with her. The marshal is a caring person though his exterior may portray the opposite. We can see a hint of softness in his nature by this jesture of his.

Mr. Easton is embarrassed because he doesn't want Miss Fairchild to see how far down in the world he's fallen. When she previously knew him back East, Mr. Easton was a member of the social elite. But now, he's nothing more than a common criminal on his way to the penitentiary. Being incarcerated is not something that usually happens to people of Mr. Easton's social class. But then it's not really the done thing to be a humble sheriff either, which is an additional source of embarrassment. In fact, it's a toss-up as to which is the more embarrassing for Easton: to be thought by Miss Fairchild to be a crook or a law enforcement official.
