00:00The immortal pen of James Fenimore Cooper brings you thrilling tales of excitement,
00:14blazing action on the early American frontier, stirring adventures filled with the daring
00:21and courage of Hawkeye, first of the Long Rifles, and his blood brother, King Tutkuk,
00:29last of the Mohicans.
00:51♪♪♪
01:01♪♪♪
01:11♪♪♪
01:21♪♪♪
01:31This is Feather of Nakona, chief of Mingo tribe. Feather say white man not welcome.
01:39Well, I guess this bears out the rumors we heard at the port about the Mingos wanting to go back on the war path.
01:45Chief warned white man, stay away.
01:49We came out here to see Chief Nakona to find out why he's breaking the treaty and no feather's gonna stop us.
01:56♪♪♪
02:02A Mingo brave could get into trouble causing harm to a man who's welcome in the lodge of his chief.
02:29This Mingo land.
02:30Young warrior quick to raise tomahawk against my blood brother, Hawkeye.
02:34Tonkawa raised tomahawk against all white man. Hawkeye and Mohican prisoner.
02:40♪♪♪
02:48Hawkeye and Chingashook, not wise to pass feather.
02:52Nakona forgets quickly. Hawkeye friend of Mingo's.
02:55Mingo have no friend among white man. You enemy.
02:59You have brought your first, Tonkawa. Go.
03:02Unless the fate of this pale face hath greater meaning for you than hand of Willowest.
03:15Warning of Feather, not men for my friends. You're welcome at my fire.
03:20Kinda had me worried there for a minute, Nakona.
03:23That Tonkawa sure bent on getting my scalp.
03:26Like many braves, Tonkawa speak first, think later.
03:30My ears tell me that there is unrest at Nakona's fire.
03:34For many years, my people have been at peace. It is my wish.
03:39Now, many young braves speak of war.
03:42Today, much will be decided.
03:45The time has come for Willowest to leave my lodge.
03:50Two braves bargain for my daughter to be squaw.
04:00Tonkawa bring many furs, fine skin.
04:05Kona also bring much fur, fine skin.
04:09Now, Kona offer greatest possession.
04:12Three horses stand behind my teepee.
04:15I offer them.
04:18That ought to settle it.
04:20Kona has made great offer.
04:22The hand of Willowest is my greatest desire.
04:25Nakona knows my gift.
04:26Wait.
04:28I will also give three horses.
04:34You offer more, Kona?
04:37It is all I have.
04:39I can give no more.
04:41There is more you will give, Tonkawa?
04:44It is all I offer.
04:46Each offers much, but both cannot have one squaw.
04:51Go then to the forest.
04:53Whichever one returns first with the greatest deer,
04:57with the finest hide, he shall gain hand of Willowest.
05:02Great chief forgets easily.
05:05Now we must hunt deer.
05:07Once, most janky scouts taken by warrior was much greater prize.
05:12I have spoken.
05:14You will hunt deer.
05:15Go.
05:25Thank you, my father.
05:27When Kona is chief, your wishes will be fulfilled.
05:30She seems awful sure of herself.
05:32Nakona made it so that she would gain the hand of Kona,
05:36the one she truly loves.
05:38Nakona have no son to follow as chief.
05:41Tribal laws say whoever marries Willowest will be next chief.
05:47Tonkawa make bad chief, want war.
05:50Kona will be good chief, live in peace.
05:53When Nakona send braves to hunt deer,
05:56Good chief, live in peace.
05:58When Nakona send braves to hunt, it was so decided.
06:02Kona best hunter in village.
06:05Arrow quick, aim steady.
06:08Kona bring first deer.
06:11No wonder Tonkawa got so bad.
06:13Nakona was great and wise chief.
06:15Like all father, love and happiness have little one come first.
06:21Maybe someday when I get old.
06:23There's long life behind me.
06:25Then it's time for me taking score.
06:27Hawkeye and the Mohican are men of the wilderness.
06:30She is your score.
06:32While you are on the lands of my people, you are safe.
06:45Nakona guide his people well.
06:47Peace not be broken.
06:49I don't know.
06:50As long as they have braves like Tonkawa.
06:52I'm sure anxious to get Willow West and become the next chief.
06:55You think he cause trouble?
06:56I wouldn't put it past him.
07:22Now my brother, your death will make many pale face, loose scalp.
07:50Soon be dark.
08:10We can still make it to the way station.
08:12We have to use one of Mallory's canoes to travel the river tomorrow.
08:16What is it?
08:19The wind speaks of the dead.
08:22Over there.
08:30You're right.
08:31It's a deer.
08:34It's more than that.
08:40Bullet strike here.
08:41Wound deep.
08:42But he not dead.
08:43Never.
08:44Never.
08:45Never.
08:47You're right.
08:48It's a deer.
08:51It's more than that.
08:56Bullet strike here.
08:57Wound deep.
08:58But he not dead.
08:59Yeah, but he will be if he doesn't get fixed up quick.
09:02We'll take him to the way station.
09:03It's a lot closer than going all the way back to Nakona's village.
09:06The Mallory's can take care of him there.
09:16My ears do not believe the words Tonkawa has spoken.
09:25It is true, great chief.
09:26Tonkawa see his brother Kwana fall before the long rifle of the white man.
09:30How many were there that did this thing?
09:32Tonkawa could not tell.
09:33Perhaps few, perhaps many.
09:36What pale face travels these lands unknown to me?
09:38What of the one called Hawkeye?
09:40Hawkeye would not do this.
09:41He is pale faced.
09:42All pale faced are enemy of red skin.
09:45We stand here, talk, while enemy escape.
09:48Take braves.
09:49Bring body of Kwana to my lodge.
09:51If there is truth in the words Tonkawa has spoken, then many pale faced will die.
09:57There will be war.
09:59If Tonkawa lies, the torture of the stake will be his reward.
10:05Go.
10:11Kala.
10:15Be careful.
10:17Hanna, are you okay?
10:18Go back.
10:34Well, glory be!
10:38That or that?
10:41What is it?
10:42Hello, Liza.
10:44What have you got there?
10:45This is Quanah.
10:46He's a brave of the Mingo tribe.
10:48This is a fine way to greet old friends
10:50and bringing them a dead Injun.
10:51Not dead.
10:52Hurt bad.
10:53He stopped a bullet with his shoulder.
10:55You think you can fix him, Liza?
10:56Sure.
10:57Put him in the cabin.
10:59Now, Liza, sheltering a redskin in our house
11:01is only asking for trouble.
11:02That Injun's a human being with a soul, Zach, Mary,
11:04and it's our Christian duty to help him.
11:06Inside.
11:12I don't take to this, Liza.
11:14You'll save that savage's life,
11:15only to lose your own to him.
11:17He's immortal and need a care, Zach.
11:18If you're scared of him, then bide your time outside.
11:21Here, finish taking in that wash.
11:33Here in this place, Quanah fell before a long rifle
11:35of pale face.
11:38Quanah taken by pale face to cover
11:40his evil deed from our eyes.
11:43See?
11:44Mark us in a Mohican.
11:46Another mark.
11:47Only Hawkeye and Chingach could cover feet like Mohican.
11:50Hawkeye kill our brother.
11:52Hurray!
11:54We follow trail of Ben's Quanah.
11:56Hurray!
11:58Now, you take my woman.
12:00Dedicated, that's what she is.
12:02In there, tending that redskin like he was her own son.
12:06Mark you.
12:07No good will come of it.
12:09You can't trust them Indians.
12:15Of course, I didn't include Chiashkuk as one of them.
12:19It's them savages I'm talking about.
12:23Yes, sir.
12:25One month's more is all I've got.
12:27Then my contract to run this way station expires.
12:31And I ain't renewing it.
12:33I'm going back to civilization.
12:36Well, you've made a good living here, Zach.
12:38Prices are high enough.
12:40High they should be.
12:42Risking my life among the redskins
12:44in order to bring the traveler his necessities and comforts.
12:47That's worth something a little extra, in my way of thinking.
12:50Now that you've lined your pockets with gold,
12:52you want to hire a tailor to a place of safety
12:54where you can live out your life growing fat and old.
12:56And such a life I deserve.
12:58But.
13:00Stirring in there.
13:01You better go sit with him while I clean up.
13:04You stay here, Chiashkuk.
13:06Help me wash the dishes.
13:08Me?
13:09Wash dishes?
13:10Yes.
13:11Wash dishes.
13:14Oh.
13:16Me not even take squawk when old.
13:20Yankee!
13:22Yankee, come out of cabin.
13:25I'm cold.
13:26I want socks.
13:27What is it?
13:28We've got visitors and I want socks.
13:30Come on, Yankee.
13:31Yankee, I want socks.
13:32Come on, Yankee.
13:34I want socks.
13:35Calm down.
13:36Calm down.
13:37I'm a prisoner of war.
13:38You'll get what you want.
13:40Watch your mouth, Yankee.
13:42Come on, Yankee.
13:43Yankee.
13:44Yankee.
13:45Oh, man.
13:46Oh, Yankee.
13:47Yankee.
13:48Yankee.
13:49I want socks.
13:50We've got visitors, and I don't think they've come for a social call.
13:53I knew it.
13:55You let him bring that redskin in here, and now we...
13:57Zack!
13:58If you've got guns and powder, you'd better see to them.
14:05You help him.
14:06I won't lift a weapon against any redskin unless there's a cause.
14:09Dengue! Come out!
14:11They've come after your scalp. Is that cause enough?
14:20Dengue!
14:24What do you want, Tonkawa?
14:26Hawkeye killed Kwana.
14:28Tonkawa and Brains come for slain brother.
14:31You didn't tell us it was you.
14:33Tonkawa lied.
14:34I didn't shoot Kwana, but I think I know who did.
14:39Tonkawa thinks Kwana dead.
14:42Maybe it was him who...
14:45Maybe it was him who shot Kwana.
14:47Maybe it was him who...
14:56What do you think you're doing?
15:03Kwana, open your eyes.
15:07First, feel the fire in your back.
15:11And hear the voice of the one who shot the rifle.
15:15Tonkawa, never good with a gun.
15:18Aimed badly.
15:21Lucky for Kwana.
15:23I guess that answers our question.
15:25Tonkawa shot Kwana for two reasons.
15:28To win the hand of Willowhurst, become new chief.
15:31Right, and if he can put the blame on us,
15:33it'll be easy for him to stir up trouble between Nakona and the whites in his territory.
15:37What are we going to do?
15:38Well, if you can hold off Tonkawa until I get back to Nakona and tell him what's happened.
15:42We can't do that.
15:44We can't do that.
15:45There are probably ten of them out there to every one of us.
15:47And with you gone...
15:48You got a better idea?
15:53Yankees, come out!
15:55Give us Kwana!
15:57Hawkeye.
15:59This was to be a gift for Willowhurst on marriage day.
16:02You take.
16:04If you reach the village,
16:06then she will know Kwana lives.
16:09You'll still get to use it, Kwana.
16:10Yankees, come out!
16:13You can't go, they're going to attack!
16:15No, I don't think they will, not at least until nightfall.
16:18But they'll sit out there and worry you some,
16:19so don't go sticking your head out the windows.
16:30What are we going to do?
16:33We wait.
16:38You go load guns.
16:42We wait.
17:12Fire!
17:42Fire!
18:12KWANA
18:36This was only known to Kwana and me.
18:39On our wedding day,
18:41I received it as a token of his love.
18:44Hawkeye is right.
18:45Kwana lives.
18:46We follow Hawkeye.
18:48Is Kwana all right?
18:49He was when I left him.
18:50It's too quiet, I don't like it.
18:52Do you think they're still there?
18:55Me look.
19:21Still there.
19:22Do you think Hawkeye will be here in time?
19:51My chief has brought Paleface.
19:55Was he who killed Kwana?
19:57Tokawa!
20:50Tokawa!
21:20Tokawa!
21:45Stop, Hawkeye!
21:47Death too easy.
21:50Go, leave these lands.
21:53Never return.
21:54You are not worthy of your people.
22:21Kwana is well.
22:22Very fast now.
22:35It was a beautiful wedding.
22:39Marriage is not possible without the help of my brother.
22:42You are always welcome at my house.
22:45I'm afraid that welcome will not do much good.
22:48You will leave us?
22:49I was thinking about it.
22:52My station never meant anything to me.
22:56But now I don't know.
22:58Fighting for it made a difference.
23:01I don't think it's good for a man to fight for something and leave it.
23:05This is our home.
23:06We have friends here.
23:08I think we should stay.
23:11I know you, Mr. Scope.
23:14I'm not going to leave you.
23:16I know you, Mr. Scope.
23:17We have a long way to go.
23:19The Holy Spirit will guide my brothers.
23:26I'm glad you changed your mind.
23:28We need men like you.
23:30We'll be back soon.
23:32When you come back,
23:33the doors of Zach Mallory's post will always be open to you.
23:39Goodbye, Liza.
23:46What's up with you?
23:47When we come back,
23:49Willow West and Quanno have a lot of papoose.
23:52Now, Zach and Liza are very happy.
23:57Maybe some day soon,
23:59Chingichicoke will take Squaw.
24:03Come on.
24:06Join us again next week
24:09for another of James Fenimore Cooper's
24:11fascinating stories of the early American frontier.
24:14Another exciting adventure of Hawkeye
24:16and his brother Chingichicoke.
24:19The last of the Mohicans.
