00:00Letting your men get killed off one by one may fatten your share of that lottery ticket, Sergeant.
00:18But one thing you can be sure of, you won't live to spend it.
00:30The End
00:33The End
00:36The End
00:39The End
00:44I knew that my father had that.
00:50Not been working anymore.
00:52Well, I'm so Voorhiers.
01:07And I fell in hell.
01:10And I got that.
01:12They were too storied.
01:13Any risk of bills?
01:15Oh, I didn't get rid of a lottery ticket.
01:18This no good.
01:19Cost me $40.
01:21Somebody else win.
01:22The lottery, uh, Louisiana lottery?
01:24They've had the drawing already.
01:26Last night, in New Orleans, $2 million in prizes.
01:30Nothing for a boy.
01:32Oh, that's too bad.
01:33Here, perhaps this will repair some of the damage to your purse.
01:37I saved this for next lottery.
01:39Maybe San Francisco win again.
01:42You mean somebody from this town won?
01:44Yeah, poor man now rich.
01:46You look, see.
01:49San Franciscan wins Louisiana lottery.
01:52$600,000 ticket held by a local cavalryman.
01:55The name on the winning receipt was that of Corporal Mike Callahan,
01:58whose listed address is San Francisco.
02:00The sponsors of the lottery announced that Corporal Callahan
02:03must personally notify New Orleans
02:05and confirm that he holds the correct number
02:07to collect his mammoth $600,000 grand prize.
02:10This newspaper, as well as civic authorities,
02:12have traced Corporal Callahan to his last station at Fort Steele,
02:15but have been unable to locate him and inform him of his bonanza.
02:19Unless Corporal Callahan comes forward
02:21or can be found within a week,
02:23he risks forfeiting the grand prize.
02:25Well, if he's at Fort Steele, why doesn't he come forward?
02:29I know.
02:30Unless he's not at Fort Steele and doesn't know he's won.
02:33Hmm, $600,000 now.
02:36That's too much money to be ignorant of.
02:38Mr. Peloton.
02:39What's mine?
02:40You know, like paper?
02:41No, hey, boy.
02:42I'm more interested in another kind of paper right now.
02:44I'd like to see what a winning lottery ticket looks like.
02:50Mo's that guy, huh?
02:52Mo's that guy?
03:07You were saying that Corporal Callahan is overdue.
03:10That's right.
03:11He and his whole patrol.
03:12Two days.
03:13He was in Company B.
03:14They were sent out in field duty a few weeks ago.
03:16Sergeant Major Siebert with Callahan under him
03:18and three privates were sent on an advanced scouting mission.
03:20They didn't come back.
03:21Company B was too hard-pressed to hunt for them.
03:24We're having a mess of Indian trouble.
03:26What do you think happened to them, Colonel?
03:28For all I know, they're dead and scalped by now.
03:31Hexano's got every Apache on the warpath.
03:37Captain, we're at the hospital in Company E.
03:39Yes, sir.
03:41Colonel, I understood that peace negotiations
03:43were being held with the Apaches.
03:45That's just it.
03:46Hexano made his demands reasonable enough.
03:49A strip of land called Orleans Canyon,
03:51certain water rights.
03:53But the Land Treaty Commission in Washington
03:55has been sitting on its hands,
03:56quibbling about details.
03:57Hexano got tired of waiting,
03:59decided to have his way by force.
04:00I tell you.
04:02From Washington, sir.
04:03Urgent.
04:09Thank heavens.
04:10This is what we've been waiting for.
04:12The Land Commission has agreed to concede
04:14all of Exano's demands.
04:16The final treaty will be here by courier.
04:19Where will you have it?
04:20Nine, ten days.
04:21Till then we'll just have to keep fighting.
04:23Fred, you'll have to excuse me now.
04:25I'm sorry I can't help you find your friend Callahan.
04:27Well, but he's not exactly a friend, Colonel.
04:29He wanted to see him about business.
04:31We can't spare a man to help you.
04:33We're barely holding our own,
04:34and Callahan will have to hold his own,
04:36if he's alive.
04:37Well, I'd like to find out.
04:39If he's alive, I mean.
04:40I'm not sure I know what you do mean.
04:41I'd like to run him down.
04:42In that country?
04:43It's swarming with savages.
04:44I'll take my chances.
04:45I've said we can't help you.
04:46Well, Colonel, I'm used to traveling alone.
04:47The only help I'll need is some general idea
04:48where the platoon might be.
04:49The missing platoon had to touch
04:50three different water holes.
04:51Apache Wells, Indian Springs,
04:52Mesquite Wells.
04:53If I were you, and I wouldn't be
04:54for all of that $600,000,
04:56I'd start right here.
04:57Apache Wells.
05:22Environmental Museum
05:24Cafe.
05:25To be continued...
05:28Hello, my friend.
05:29Hello, my friend.
05:31I'm here.
05:32Thank you, haveone eyes.
05:33Which is your choice?
05:34Mrs. P suds of balcony,
05:36especially of your composition.
05:37propriety scene.
05:38Don't worry, at the risk,
05:39I am, not afraid.
05:40I will.
05:42I am not afraid.
05:43I wanna stop off on your horizon.
05:45Why am I thinking?
05:46Yes, I tell you.
05:47I have to say something let's see.
05:48Let's see it.
05:49My son of a mountain,
05:50Watch out!
06:00Watch out!
06:03Watch out!
06:06Watch out!
06:20Right down here.
06:50Miss Spinoza, get his horse back with the others, quick.
06:53Well, thanks for the helping hand.
07:04Who are you?
07:20I'm here in a matter of business. You're Sergeant Major Siebert, aren't you?
07:25What business?
07:26I want to see one of your men, Purple Mike Callahan. Is he with you?
07:30Callahan, come here. Be right with you.
07:35It's Mr. Paladin. He came all the way from San Francisco to see you.
07:38Are you joking?
07:39Not today, Corporal.
07:41Did you ever buy a ticket on a Louisiana lottery?
07:44I sure shootin' did.
07:46Ever since Hannah and me decided to get married,
07:48they've been buying up every chance that comes along.
07:50You have the ticket with you?
07:51Yeah.
07:52I'm sorry.
07:53I'm sorry.
07:54I'm sorry.
07:55I'm sorry.
07:56I'm sorry.
07:57I'm sorry.
07:58I'm sorry.
07:59I'm sorry.
08:00I'm sorry.
08:01I'm sorry.
08:02I'm sorry.
08:03You have the ticket with you?
08:05Yeah.
08:06May I see it?
08:07Sure.
08:19Well, that's the right number, all right.
08:22Congratulations, Corporal.
08:24You're rich.
08:33What do you mean, I'm rich?
08:35I mean, you won the Louisiana lottery.
08:38First prize, $600,000.
08:42Oh, me?
08:44I won it?
08:45That's what I came out here to tell you.
08:48Yippee!
08:49I'm rich!
08:50I'm rich!
08:51Ow!
08:52Ow!
08:53Ow!
08:54Ow!
08:55Ow!
08:56Ow!
08:57There's, uh, only one problem, Corporal.
09:02You have three days in which to notify New Orleans that you have the winning number.
09:17Yeah.
09:18You said you were going to help me out of this, but you never did say how.
09:21Because I didn't know.
09:22I had a few hours to look around, and I still don't know.
09:25Must be 50, 60 Apaches out there.
09:27I'll say we're as good as dead.
09:29Will they have a good notion to rush us?
09:31I don't think so.
09:32Why should they waste lives?
09:33Only have to do is wait till we're out of food and ammunition.
09:36I still don't know why you got yourself into this mess.
09:40Well, I've already told Corporal Callahan I expect a fee.
09:44And besides, he was missing.
09:45And I was curious.
09:46Yeah, about this fee.
09:47If you do get me out of here, where is it going to be?
09:48Well, under the circumstances, I think I'll leave that to your discretion.
09:50What do you think your life's worth now?
09:51Well...
09:52How about one-sixth of the total value of the ticket?
09:53One hundred thousand dollars.
09:54Well, now, that's generous.
09:55Hey, uh...
09:56Say, why couldn't we get out of here just the way you came in?
09:57That was fool's luck.
09:58I was alone.
09:59I caught them by surprise.
10:00If we all tried to go out of here, they'd cut us to ribbons.
10:01Well, now, maybe we don't all have to get out of here.
10:02Why not just you and me?
10:03I'd call that desertion, Corporal.
10:04Ritter.
10:05Get out there with Espinosa.
10:06Keep your eyes open.
10:07Well, now that's generous.
10:08Hey, uh...
10:09Say, why couldn't we get out of here just the way you came in?
10:12That was fool's luck.
10:14I was alone.
10:15I caught them by surprise.
10:16If we all tried to go out of here, they'd cut us to ribbons.
10:20Well, maybe we don't all have to get out of here.
10:23Why not just you and me?
10:24I'd call that desertion, Corporal.
10:27Ritter.
10:30Get out there with Espinosa.
10:33I'm here with Espinosa. Keep your eyes open.
10:39Ain't nobody leaving this picnic ground while I'm in command.
10:42I'm giving orders.
10:44I got an order for you, Callahan.
10:47You got the water detail.
10:52Yeah, in the morning, you take them empty canteens down and fill them at the hole.
10:56What do you mean, water detail? I had that gesture and I almost got killed.
11:00You got it again, rich boy.
11:02No, just a minute. Just one patient minute here.
11:05If you think that I'm going out there to get killed so that you can have the ticket, you're wrong.
11:09Lottery tickets making you kind of jumpy, Callahan. Maybe you like a different kind of detail.
11:14Like what, for instance?
11:16Like being officially assigned to ride to Fort Steele alone for reinforcements.
11:23You'd do that little thing for me, wouldn't you?
11:25You'd let me get out of here so I could cash in my ticket in time, huh?
11:30I might.
11:32That's very generous of you, Sergeant.
11:34When anyone is that generous, I often ask myself what's in it for him.
11:38Same thing that's in it for you.
11:41What's in it for you?
11:42I heard out there.
11:43One-sixth cut.
11:44One-hundred-thousand-dollars.
11:46All right, Sergeant.
11:47You got yourself a deal.
11:48I'd like that in writing.
11:54If I win the Louisiana lottery, I promise to pay Sergeant Siebert one-hundred-thousand-dollars.
12:01Sign your name.
12:06I don't think that piece of paper would look very good at the court, Marshal, Sarge.
12:09Meaning what?
12:10You're forcing a bribe, playing favoritism.
12:13If he start that, we'd be sure that each other, not the Indians.
12:16Well, no.
12:17He's got a point.
12:18Corporal, do you mind if I make a suggestion?
12:19Well, go right ahead.
12:20We're in business together.
12:21You start giving out one or two pieces, it'll split up the group and cause trouble.
12:35Now, if everybody was a partner...
12:37What do you mean everybody?
12:38Well, there were six of us.
12:39If each man had a sixth of that ticket...
12:41That'll only leave me but one hundred thousand dollars.
12:44Callahan, the former President of the New Yorkshire,
12:47That'll only leave me, but $100,000.
12:50Callahan, before I got here, you were dead broke.
12:53At that point, you would have said $100,000 would be enough for you and Hannah, wouldn't you?
12:57Yeah, sure, but if everybody is an equal partner,
13:02then everybody's going to fight to protect that ticket as hard as he will to protect his own neck.
13:06No prejudice, no favoritism, just six men trying to survive and cash in.
13:13You think it over. It'll be the best deal you ever made.
13:17All right. We're all partners together.
13:47All right, I'll have your canteen.
13:50How am I ever going to get to New York and be an artist?
13:53All the joint I ever do around here is a water detail.
13:56It was fair. We all do for the same chance.
13:58Yeah, I know. I know.
14:03I'll cover you.
14:04I know.
14:06I know.
14:10I know.
14:11I know.
14:13I know.
14:13Oh, my God.
14:43See, but letting your men get killed one at a time may fatten your end of the ticket.
14:49It won't save your skin.
14:59Thanks, Sergeant.
15:02Forget it.
15:13Oh, my God.
15:43Oh, my God.
16:13I don't know.
16:20Hold it!
16:23I'll wake those aliens.
16:24Well, Corporal, looks like you're in charge.
16:44That waits for us.
16:56I still think he's got the ticket in his cap.
17:00He kept everything there.
17:01Well, there's one way to find out.
17:16There it goes.
17:17There's the ticket.
17:18Look, look.
17:18The van's blowing it away from us.
17:19Hold you for her.
17:22Hold you for her.
17:22Let's go.
17:53Well, you earned your fee, Mr. Pellet.
17:58Not quite yet.
18:01It's amazing how curious those Indians are. They'll come after anything.
18:04I'd like to get one of them alive.
18:06Why?
18:07Well, we've got to try. We're almost out of ammunition.
18:10We'll be dead by morning if we don't try something.
18:12Well, like what?
18:14Like... like leading a couple of our horses down to the foot of this hill.
18:18But the Indians will take them.
18:20Maybe not.
18:22Well, so you get yourself an Indian. What good is that gonna do?
18:25Won't get us out of here.
18:26And it certainly won't make this worth half a million, either.
18:29I'd make that worth more than half a million.
18:31I'd make it worth your life.
18:43All right, Callahan. Get him out of here. Go on.
18:50Come on.
18:51Come on.
18:52Come on.
18:53Come on.
18:54Come on.
18:55Come on.
18:58I'm getting ready to see this cat.
18:59Come on.
19:00Come on in, then.
19:01Come on.
19:02Come on.
19:03Come on.
19:04No, you're the only one of them.
19:07Come on.
19:08Come on.
19:09No, no.
19:10Come on.
19:11Come on.
19:12Come on, the grass.
19:13He'll be the one of them now.
19:14Come on.
19:15Get up that hill.
19:16Get up there.
19:17Go on.
19:18Come on.
19:19Go on.
19:20Get up there.
19:21Go on.
19:22You have some English, White Bull.
19:24Do you also read the white man's words?
19:27No.
19:28And you do not know of the White Father's desire to make a treaty of peace with your people?
19:33Exit.
19:34Exit.
19:35No.
19:36Exit.
19:37Exit.
19:38What do you, a mere brave, know of what Exit believes?
19:41He leads us.
19:42Exit.
19:43Exit.
19:44Exit.
19:45Exit.
19:46Exit.
19:47Exit.
19:48Exit.
19:49Exit.
19:51Exit.
19:52Exit.
19:53Exit.
19:54Exit.
19:55Exit.
19:57Exit.
19:58Exit.
20:00Exit.
20:01Exit.
20:02Exit.
20:03Exano's anger is great.
20:05The pale face speaks of treaty, but no treaty.
20:09Exano fights.
20:11That is why I didn't kill you.
20:13I wanted you to know of the treaty.
20:15Yes, where treaty?
20:17It's being finished at the fort, so it will be ready to sign.
20:20But they've sent me ahead with the first page
20:23so that I can show it to Exano.
20:25And Exano will keep his patience and wait in peace.
20:29No believe. Trick.
20:31My words are not empty.
20:34I'm perfectly willing to show the treaty to your chief.
20:37You're free to go to him.
20:41Tell him of the treaty.
20:43Tell him it waits for him.
20:44Go.
20:56God, it's crazy.
20:58That Indian finds out that we haven't got a treaty.
21:00I've got the treaty.
21:04That's right.
21:04In your boot.
21:05Look, what are you talking about?
21:07All I've got in my boot...
21:08The ticket, huh?
21:10The $600,000 first prize in the Louisiana Lottery.
21:14That could be the price of our freedom.
21:15No.
21:15That's the only piece of paper we have that could possibly look like an official document.
21:21I don't know whether Exano will even see us.
21:23And if he does, I certainly don't know whether he'll believe that thing is part of a treaty.
21:27But he might.
21:27And that could save our scalps.
21:31He won't like being fooled.
21:33He's not being fooled.
21:34I was with Colonel Barlow in the fort when the news came from Washington that the treaty has gone through.
21:39It's only a matter of days.
21:40Now, what do you say?
21:42Look, you were the one that made me divide the ticket up.
21:45Now, why don't you ask them to decide?
21:48All right.
21:49You've all heard it.
21:51This is a long shot.
21:53And I think it's the only shot we've got.
21:56My vote is yes.
21:57Krasowski.
22:00Well, I guess my folks would rather have me than money.
22:04I say give it up.
22:08Ritter?
22:09I'll vote yes.
22:12Miss Bonoza?
22:14Yes, senor.
22:16All right, Callahan.
22:17Now it's up to you.
22:18Well, since this is a democracy, what have I got to say?
22:21But yes, too?
22:23Hey, look!
22:34Take it, corporal.
22:35Oh.
22:39General, this is the first page of the treaty.
22:53This is the house of the White Father.
22:55This is the flag that stands behind the treaty.
22:57This number says how many acres you will own.
23:01These are the seals that make it official.
23:03This word is Orleans, showing that you will have permanent possession of Orleans Canyon.
23:09You will have the entire treaty in your hands before the moon is full again if you let us go free.
23:15But he does not say that.
23:17Hexano, take the treaty.
23:18Hexano, take a treaty.
23:24Go in peace.
23:42Hexano, take a treaty.
23:44Go in peace.
23:48Go in peace.
23:52Go in peace.
23:57Go in peace.
23:58Let's go.
23:59Let's go.
24:00Let's go.
24:01Let's go.
24:02Let's go.
24:03Let's go.
24:04Let's go.
24:05Let's go.
24:26When I think of what Hannah and I could have done with all of that money.
24:32Let's go.
24:42In the ranks of death you will find him.
24:47His father's sword he has skirted on.
24:52And his wild hearts long behind him.
24:57A gun will travel reach the card of a man.
25:07A knight without armor in a savage land.
25:13His fast gun for hire heats the calling wind.
25:20A soldier of fortune is the man called Paladin.
25:29Paladin, Paladin, where do you roam?
25:34Who hosted him?
25:35He was a man of Pon
