05:00BUT SHERIFF
05:01THAT'S JUST IT
05:02I'M THE SHERIFF
05:03AND IF HE COMES BACK HERE
05:04HE'LL BE RISKING HIS NECK
05:05AND IT'S MY JOB
05:06TO PUT A NOUS AROUND IT
05:07BUT BY A CRACKY I'LL DO IT
05:09MAYBE I CAN GET RID OF THAT

05:13I'LL GET IT OUT HERE
05:14I'LL SHOW THEM PELLERS A THING OR TWO
05:15BY A CRACKY
05:21Brennan
05:24TEN
05:36THEN
05:46My name's Carson.
06:04I'd like to take up the option on the Davis place.
06:07What?
06:08Why, yes, yes.
06:09I'm Crager, Mr. Carson.
06:11This transaction you're speaking of will have to be in cash, you know.
06:14$16,000.
06:15Yes, I know.
06:16I want the deed made out in Davis' name.
06:19Davis' name?
06:21Charlie Davis is kin to me, and I just don't want to see him lose his farm, that's all.
06:25Seems to be all right, Mr. Collins.
06:27Get the papers, and we'll make out the deed.
06:29And we'll make out the deed.
06:41Hey, where are you going?
07:09Jesse James.
07:11Jesse James?
07:12What do you mean, Jesse James?
07:13Jesse James just rode into town.
07:16He did?
07:16Was a darn fool.
07:18Come on.
07:24There he is.
07:25That's Jesse James.
07:26Now, arrest him.
07:27And don't forget, I claim the $10,000 reward, if there is not much money.
07:32Does he mean me?
07:33I've heard tell of Jesse James, but why me?
07:35My name's Clint Byrne.
07:36Look here, Jesse.
07:38Are you forgetting I'm the sheriff?
07:39Coming to town in broad daylight like this?
07:42I ain't forgetting nothing.
07:43I never saw you before in my life.
07:44Well, I've seen you, so don't make me use this.
07:47Come along.
07:48Well, I'll go along if you say so.
07:49Do you mind witnessing it, Mr. Crager?
08:02Now, if you'll just get this deed recorded, the deal will be completed.
08:06All right, I'll do that.
08:20Crager!
08:20Crager, come here!
08:24Look at this.
08:25Here, Y-7-4-3-6-9.
08:29And here, Y-7-4-3-6-9.
08:32This is a list of serial numbers finished to us by the bank from St. Louis.
08:35The money that was stolen off the train?
08:36Yes.
08:37That's where I've seen that man before.
08:39That fellow Carson.
08:41That was Jesse James.
08:44We just got Jesse James.
08:46What do you mean, got him?
08:46He's locked up over to jail right now.
08:48That's quick work.
08:49I want my reward.
09:04Don't look at me like that, Jesse.
09:06When I wrote you, I figured you'd have sense enough to keep out of my sight.
09:09What do you mean, your sight?
09:11You're as blind as a bat.
09:11Let me out of here.
09:15Where's Jesse James?
09:17Want to see him?
09:17You bet I want to see him.
09:18Where's the rest of the money he stole off my train?
09:20Funny, he didn't tell me.
09:23Hey, you sure do seem right at home in this jail, Mr. Quaker.
09:27I want my reward.
09:29What do you mean, Jesse James?
09:30This isn't Jesse James.
09:31Huh?
09:32Who ain't Jesse James?
09:33I ain't.
09:34Jesse James was clean shaven five minutes ago.
09:36You ought to know that a man can't grow a four-day beard in five minutes, you old goat.
09:40Then who are you anyhow?
09:41I'm Clint Burns, the best poker player in Missouri.
09:43Whoever he is, he isn't the man who just brought the Davis farm.
09:47Come on, Sheriff.
09:47Let's get out of here.
09:48Hey, you ain't going no place.
09:55Not yet.
09:56Hey.
09:56Oh, shut up.
09:57You've caused enough trouble already.
09:59Besides, I think maybe you're a material witness or something.
10:04I knew there wasn't that much money in the world.
10:09Easy, son.
10:22The sheriff's with him.
10:24Hi, Charlie.
10:33Hello, Sheriff.
10:35How's things been going?
10:37All right.
10:38Morning, Emmy.
10:40What's wrong with you here, Sheriff?
10:46I reckon you know any.
10:47Another cup of your buttermilk, of course.
10:50Do you know a man named Carson?
11:05Carson?
11:06No, I never heard of him.
11:07No.
11:08Then maybe you haven't got a deed to this place.
11:10You're darn tootin' I've got a deed.
11:12Oh, you don't.
11:13That's mine.
11:14Sealed and recorded.
11:15And I'm hangin' on to it.
11:16Now, watch out you don't hang with it.
11:18That was bought with stolen money.
11:19You know who bought it?
11:20Jesse James.
11:22Where is he?
11:22We don't know nothin' about Jesse James.
11:24Now, you get movin', Craigor, before I lose my temper.
11:26It sure was good buttermilk.
11:29It sure takes a bad taste out of a man's mouth.
11:33That's right, Ivy.
11:35You got your deed and you got your guns.
11:37Keep them both handy when that wolf's around.
11:43Bye, Emmy.
11:52What are you yellin' about?
12:00You claimed the land was worth $100 an acre.
12:02And that's what you got paid for.
12:04Well, you better get busy and capture that, Bandit.
12:05Or I'll bring some people in here at will.
12:07Yeah?
12:08It'll be the first time that's been tried.
12:10But they ain't never got Jesse James yet.
12:12And if I was you, I'd be watchin' that bank of yours.
12:16You may be holdin' it up right now.
12:22Everything seems to be quiet.
12:40Yep, I reckon it is.
12:41Where are you going?
12:42Going to bed.
12:43Turned near nine o'clock.
12:44Wait a minute.
12:44I want to take a look inside and be sure.
12:46What's the matter, Craigor?
12:47You gettin' spooky?
12:52Sorry to take that.
13:00There's only one other like it in the country.
13:02Then you better start lookin' for that other one.
13:04Now, if you two just sit tight, nobody will get hurt.
13:22We're too late.
13:34Yeah.
13:35When I saw Jesse, I suspicioned that.
13:37What are you going to do?
13:38Just stand there?
13:39Nope.
13:39I'm going to go wreck that fella Clint Burns out.
13:42Clint Burns?
13:45Oh, yeah.
13:47Well, good night, Sheriff.
13:47I know you can't be in two places at once, doggone it, but I just swore you was Jesse James.
13:55I'll give you more than that to swear about if you pull a trick like this on me again.
13:59Try and share if you are.
14:00You ain't even got a gun.
14:06Hello, Burns.
14:07Why not?
14:14Some nights you'll be just a gambler.
14:17And other nights you and your gang will be out making every farmer in this county anxious to collect that reward.
14:22You mean I'm to do all this burnin' and shootin' so they'll be out to get the real Jesse?
14:26Exactly.
14:27So long as the Sheriff and the rest of these yokels look upon Jesse James as a plaster saint, I can never stop him.
14:35But you're the one man who can change all that.
14:37It's a deal.
14:38You furnish the cash and I'll furnish the trouble.
14:40Oh, that must be the bank over there.
14:58You'd better go talk to him, Polly.
15:00I'll see what the Sheriff has to say about the famous Jesse James.
15:03A week ago you were complaining you couldn't possibly pay.
15:09Now you walk in here at $9,000.
15:11Well, it's good money, ain't it?
15:12Can't deny that, Crager.
15:13The numbers aren't on the list.
15:14They must have changed the money somewhere.
15:16As usual.
15:17Pretty smart, eh?
15:19All right, make out the deed.
15:21And what do you want?
15:22You walk in here with your pocket's full of money, too?
15:24Is this the bank that was robbed?
15:25Any child knows that.
15:27They've gotten most of the money back now.
15:29Oh, that's wonderful, Mr. Crager.
15:30But how did you manage to do it?
15:31He's the sixth farmer that's come in here and bought off his farm with money that Jesse
15:34James stole.
15:36Oh, that's marvelous.
15:40Oh, can you prove it or do I use the word alleged?
15:43Of course I can't prove it.
15:45Oh, but Jesse James really is a Robin Hood, isn't he?
15:48He steals from you so these poor farmers can buy the land that you're trying to steal from
15:52them.
15:53What do you mean, steal?
15:54Oh, I beg your pardon.
15:55I mean that allegedly you're trying to steal.
15:58Who are you?
15:58Oh, Miss Polly Morgan, star reporter of the St. Louis Journal.
16:03Of course it doesn't say star on the card, but I think it's best to be modest, don't you?
16:07Oh, you know who I've got this world forΠ?
16:08Yeah, it's really good for her.
16:13Well, I think it doesn't matter, but I think we're getting forces away with all the
16:34items, but we, it's perfect.
16:34All right, Mr. Jesse James, we're heading for the sheriff's office.
16:52And don't make me put another notch in my gun.
16:54I've too many there already.
16:58Well, come on.
17:05Come on, boys.
17:06I want to see the sheriff's face when Byrne turns up again.
17:09Much bled, Byrne.
17:12I don't suppose Jesse James will last very long with you around, sheriff.
17:16Well, I aim to do my duty, as I see it, straight from St. Louis.
17:22Ain't but one more like it in the country.
17:24Where's the other one?
17:26Looks like the sort of gun Jesse James ought to carry.
17:31Oh, you again.
17:33Well, young lady.
17:34I suppose you think you've captured Jesse James.
17:37I most certainly have, and he was as big as life.
17:40Isn't there any law and order in this town?
17:43Come on, get out of here.
17:45Don't talk to the sheriff that way.
17:46We want to get a story out.
17:47Oh, he's just mad because he didn't capture Jesse himself.
17:50Listen, young lady.
17:51I have known Jesse James since before he was born.
17:54But you have?
17:55Is he really a Robin Hood?
17:56Or a ruthless outlaw and killer?
17:58Of course he ain't.
17:59Why, he wouldn't hurt a fly.
18:01Unless it was working for the railroad.
18:03But this ain't him.
18:04It ain't?
18:05Of course it ain't.
18:06Oh, but look.
18:08I know what it looks like him, but it ain't.
18:10Can I go now?
18:11Yeah, get out.
18:12Good riddance to you.
18:13I'll bet you could give us a lot of human interest items about Jesse James.
18:17We'll quote you directly, Mr. Sheriff.
18:19Your name will be in all the papers.
18:21Well, I can tell you about the time Jesse helped me build my fireplace.
18:24You mean we could really see that fireplace?
18:26Well, I couldn't leave here to leave, didn't I?
18:28Well, that's all right.
18:29We could come to dinner.
18:30Well, you see...
18:31Oh, you mean you're a bachelor?
18:33Well, matter of fact, I am.
18:36Strictly by choice, you understand?
18:38Oh, why, of course.
18:40A handsome man like you.
18:42But don't you worry about us saying we'll come and bring the food and we'll cook it.
18:46We'll see that our readers get the true story of Jesse James and Sheriff Whitaker.
18:50Yes, he was only 15 when we built this here fireplace, but he carried them boulders just like they were pencils.
19:02You seem to have been a very good friend of his.
19:04You weren't ever a member of his gang, were you?
19:06Well, at least I wasn't a sheriff then.
19:09Hey, that ain't bad-looking vittles for a couple of city gals to cook up.
19:14But tell me, how did he happen to come back here, Sheriff?
19:16Didn't I ever tell you how I learned Jesse James how to shoot?
19:19Well, sir, it was you.
19:27All right, Stone, get going.
19:28Right, Clance.
19:29Ruth, Chuck, come on.
19:35Look around, boys.
19:36You must have some money hit around here someplace.
19:38Ah, watch your hurry.
19:39Let's tie into some of this grub bird.
19:41Look at that big galoose.
19:43You can't eat my fried chicken.
19:45It's not for the lice of you.
19:46Ah, go on away.
19:49You better get out of here.
19:51We're going to burn this place.
19:52Well, you can't leave him here.
19:53You better get out of here.
19:56Oh, sir.
20:00Oh, sir.
20:01You've seen a bunch of men coming.
20:24Looks like Jesse James.
20:25Let's get out of here.
20:31I don't know why you came back, but you can't let a man die that way.
20:58Die? Who's die? You mean Gabby's in there?
21:00Yes.
21:00What did you burn this house down for if you were going to come back and rescue him?
21:30And he burned Gabby's house while I helped him build it.
21:33Then you're Jesse James.
21:35I reckon there's no use denying it.
21:37Well, then there's another fellow running around here that looks more like you do than you do yourself.
21:40What fellow?
21:41Well, the man who did this.
21:43We thought he was Jesse James.
21:44But I know who he is now.
21:46That gambler, Clint Burns.
21:48How do you know this isn't Clint Burns or Clint Burns isn't Jesse?
21:51I mean, he could be Clint Burns and the other fellow could be Jesse or could he?
21:57Well, if this one was Clint Burns, he'd have no reason for saying he was Jesse James.
22:00I reckon you're right, ma'am.
22:02I never thought we'd get a story like this when we left St. Louis.
22:05You mean your reporters?
22:07Mm-hmm.
22:07Then will you do me a favor and be quiet about this?
22:09I'll give you the whole story later.
22:10But right now, I don't want anyone to know I was here.
22:13But we can't do that, Jane.
22:15What would our editor say if we held a story just because a bandit asked us to?
22:19Well, if the editor doesn't know, it won't hurt him.
22:22We'll hold it until you give us the word.
22:24Thanks.
22:24You'll be all right.
22:25It'll take more than a little roasting to finish Gabby Whitaker.
22:42Hey, hey, where am I?
22:48Where am I?
22:49When did the cloud work start?
22:51Huh?
22:52When?
22:53Why are you in Paul's plan?
22:56Why are you at Judas?
22:58Why, the dirty little old town.
23:01Oh, now, Sheriff.
23:01Now, Sheriff.
23:02It wasn't enough for Jesse to burn my house down and leave me to sizzle.
23:06But he had to steal my brand new pearl-handled gun to boot.
23:10And there ain't one other like it in the country, mind you.
23:13And he's got that one, too.
23:15Doggone his ornery eyes.
23:17Yeah, but he wasn't.
23:18He said not to tell anybody.
23:20Who wasn't which?
23:21Well, he just wasn't.
23:23That's all.
23:31Where do we go from here, Byrne?
23:33He ain't going to bed, I can tell you that.
23:34This country's going to howl tonight.
23:38Oh.

23:41Oh, Lord.
23:42Oh, God.
23:42Oh, God.
23:44Oh, God.
23:44Oh, God.
23:45Oh, Lord.

25:22well this is local color isn't it oh come on
25:26isn't this exciting
25:51jesse james terrorized in the county sheriff i'd think you could find something better to do than play
26:03poker and with a lot of farmers waiting for you to appeal their case mr sloan
26:07i'd think you'd be studying law instead of cards well if you don't stop jesse it won't make any
26:12difference whether i successfully appeal the case or not none of my clients will live to get the benefit
26:16you needn't worry none about jesse james he's going to get his come up runs no later than tonight
26:29well we've heard that talk before and jesse james still riding high white and handsome
26:34he may be handsome but he ain't riding my cracky steve tells him he's down with a bullet in his brisket
26:39you sure about that sure sure i'm sure he's laying in an old deserted house down in long valley
26:46most of his gangs walked out on him uh cash me in i i gotta get going
26:51i'm heading for al tooney right now to pick up that united states marshal and his posse
26:56so if you want to see jesse james in the flesh come over to jail tomorrow and take a look
27:01and we thought he was jesse's friend do you suppose he still thinks that it was jesse who burned his
27:08house down we've got to tell him
27:10oh mr sheriff oh it's no use we've got to warn jesse but we don't even know where long valley
27:24is we'll find that out at the livery stable
27:27no i can't grant an extension you wouldn't find it any easier to pay up in 90 days
27:33you must have learned that jesse james isn't going to help you
27:36i'll expect you to be off that farm one week from today
27:39jesse james has been shot are you sure i just heard the sheriff bragging about it he's on his
27:54way to al tooney right now to pick up the marshal
27:56how many men has jesse james got with him the sheriff claims most of his gang has left
28:01he's hiding out in the deserted shack up in long valley and with that fool sheriff shooting off
28:05his mouth half the town will know about it by now some friend of jesse's will probably warn him
28:10we can't afford to let him get away get going look here craiger if i kill jesse james i'm out of a
28:17job you won't need a job with that 10 000 in your jeans how do i know i can collect it now don't

28:23i never saw you hurry after a story so fast before
28:39you sure that jesse james is nothing but a headline to you
28:43well i don't want to see an innocent man captured that's all
28:46they said it was a deserted house so i'm afraid we're in the right place
29:01you suppose jesse's lying wounded all alone in there
29:04gosh i wish he picked a more cheerful place oh not that haunted houses bother me any
29:29around the house so james can't get away
29:41i can't understand
29:59understand it doesn't look as if he's even been here well you can't blame him you couldn't
30:03keep me here dead much less wounded
30:05mr james don't even live huh where's i don't know how that story ever got started nobody's
30:20ever managed to put a bullet through jesse james yet
30:22then why are you here it's just as good a hideout as any what are you two doing here
30:26we came to warn you the sheriff's bringing a posse to capture you and they're due here anytime
30:30yeah i reckon i can take care of anything that fool sheriff has to offer
30:34let's take a look around
30:43i'm with you
30:56that's burns's gang it's time gabby and the marshall were getting here wonder what that buckboard's doing down there maybe burns figures to carry you back in it so it's to be sure of collecting that reward
31:05so it's to be sure of collecting that reward
31:12we're on time beyond there's a james gang
31:17we're on time beyond there's a james gang
31:23fool i wanted to speak up on him
31:30scatter out and take cover
31:33and take cover
31:45ifΠΎΡΠ°
31:58and
31:58Well, that's two up and down.
32:15I knew we could handle that posse any day in a week.
32:19Looks like the posse's taking a licking.
32:22If Burns is in that cabin, I'm going to make sure he don't get away.
32:25You better pitch in and help the posse.
32:26I've never helped a posse before.
32:28I don't hardly know how to act.
32:51That blame fool know I got my pearl handle gun back?
32:56Jesse, look out!
33:18Why'd you have to go and yell?
33:33You ruined everything!
33:34Why?
33:43Thanks!
33:47Let's get out of here!
33:49Did you get Jesse?
33:50Yeah, come on!
33:51It wasn't Burns, it was Jesse.
33:53How can you be sure it was Jesse?
33:55I don't know, I can just tell, that's all.
33:58Hey, you're not falling down at Jesse James, are you?
34:01I don't see no wounded man in that bunch.
34:18Maybe Jesse's still in the house.
34:19Well, that's Jesse James, all right.
34:37But that's...
34:38After all the gunfights he's been in,
34:44you never expect a stray bullet to get him.
34:45Is Craig her up yet?
35:13Yes, sir, Mr. Burns.
35:14Did you get him?
35:18Sure.
35:19But that fool posse showed up too soon,
35:21and I can't risk trying to claim the reward.
35:23Why not?
35:23They mistook us for Jesse's gang,
35:25and I had to shoot a couple of them to get away.
35:26That's too bad.
35:28Still, Jesse's dead.
35:29That's the main thing.
35:31Maybe it is to you, Crager,
35:32but I'm out that $10,000.
35:34Yes, and Hillman isn't a very healthy place for you now.
35:37One of Jesse's old gang is at the spot too anytime.
35:40Better take this and clear out.
35:42I reckon not.
35:43Now that Jesse's dead, his gang will bust up.
35:46Any way I like it here.
35:47All right.
35:48I'll double it.
35:50You seem to be very anxious for me to leave, Crager.
35:53I just want you to have enough to make a fresh start somewhere else.
35:56No.
35:57I'm having a streak of luck down at the double eagle,
35:59and I don't like changing it.
36:01See you later.
36:03Anytime you have a little more work for me to do, let me know.
36:06Deliver this note.
36:22Yes, sir.
36:22I see a lonely cloud that slowly drifted by.
36:34All of heaven is shining just for you.
36:42Still upon the hill, I hear the chirping of a lonely whimper wheel.
36:52Seems that everything's shining just for you.
37:00I told my secret to the stars, all aglow in the evening sky.
37:10And all the little stars on high are waking a million nights.
37:18You can make it through this lonely dream of mine that's shining in the blue.
37:29Can't you hear my heart calling, calling just for you?
37:39Well, you seem very cheerful for a ghost, Jesse.
37:43Now that you've got your big story about me getting killed,
37:45I suppose you'll be heading back to St. Louis.
37:47Well, I'm afraid I haven't any excuse to say, have I?
37:51Would another story do?
37:53Only this one's about a man named Crager.
37:55Is that why you're posing as Clint Burns?
37:58Mm-hmm.
37:59Crager's smart, all right, but he must have made a slip somewhere in his scheme.
38:02I'm going to find out where.
38:03But if Crager should find out you're not really Burns...
38:06That's just what he will be finding out if I don't get back to the double eagle.
38:09Clint Burns is supposed to be having a run of luck.
38:11See you later, Frank.
38:12Bye.
38:17Hello, Sloan.
38:19Hello.
38:19Is this what you wanted to see me about?
38:22Yes and no.
38:24Now that Jesse's out of the way, Clint Burns is beginning to present a problem.
38:29I have an idea he's getting too big for his britches.
38:32What's the matter?
38:33Won't he leave?
38:33No, he won't take what I offered him.
38:35And when a man like Burns gets the idea that we're afraid of what he knows...
38:39So?
38:40Burns is a gambler.
38:41Maybe he's a crooked gambler.
38:43Now, no one think twice about the death of a crooked gambler.
38:46Who's elected for the job?
38:48He should be somebody respectable.
38:51A man they'll believe when he accuses Burns of cheating.
38:54A man like that might be hard to find.
38:57Not with you here, Sloan.
38:59Me?
39:00Why not?
39:01Well, you've killed your man before.
39:03And it means just as much to you as it does to me to get rid of Burns.
39:06But, uh...
39:07I'll tell you what I have in mind.
39:16Got room for another?
39:18Hello, Mr. Sloan.
39:19We don't see you in here very often.
39:22No, but when we do, we usually win.
39:24Yes.
39:31Three sixes.
39:33All blue.
39:36I didn't know a man as luck could be as bad as this.
39:39If it is just luck.
39:41Mean anything but that, Sloan?
39:44Meaning that if it's just luck, it's bound to turn.
39:46I'll wait a while and see.
39:51I'm all in.
39:52Run them.
39:52Kings and Queens.
40:04Ten full.
40:06That last one came from the bottom, Burns.
40:08Don't understand that.
40:22Clint Burns never saw the day he could make a draw like that.
40:24Yeah.
40:25He never saw the day he'd let a man go when he had him dead to rights.
40:27The way he just had Sloan.
40:33Everybody stay where you are.
40:35Don't make a move.
40:36Now then, where's your body?
40:38A man couldn't speed up his draw like that all of a sudden.
40:42You don't suppose...
40:43I've been thinking the same thing.
40:45There's never been but one man in this country who could draw that fast.
40:47Yeah, and maybe he ain't dead.
40:49That's right.
40:50Why don't you stay here and keep your eye on him?
40:52Ruff and I are going to see Crager.
40:56You aim to come along, Sheriff?
40:57Do I?
40:58You think I'd miss a thing like this?
41:08I never expected a call from you, Mr. Burns.
41:20The name's James.
41:21Jesse James.
41:23Jesse James?
41:24What kind of a joke is this?
41:26This ain't no joke.
41:27It's put him serious.
41:28Then you're not dead?
41:30You're giving yourself up?
41:31Is that what this means?
41:32No, I'm not dead.
41:33And I'm not giving myself up.
41:35You see, Judge, I might tell you I'm Jesse James, but...
41:39I reckon you'd have a hard time proving it.
41:41That's a mighty neat point.
41:42You should have been a lawyer, Jesse.
41:44But I don't reckon you'd risk coming here just to put me in a hole.
41:47Say, Judge, what happens when a lawyer gets paid to decide he's supposed to be fighting against?
41:52I never expected Jesse James to be interested in a point of law.
41:56But to answer your question, that would be collusion.
41:58And ordinarily would invalidate the decision.
42:01Why?
42:02Well, we've added things up.
42:03And the answer is that Sloan's in with Crager.
42:06Sloan?
42:06You mean Paul Sloan?
42:08We mean exactly that.
42:10Why, Sloan tried to kill Jesse here.
42:12Who'd be one of them killed but Crager?
42:14You see, Crager thinks I'm Clint Burns.
42:16He made it very clear that he wanted to get rid of it.
42:18But have you any proof of this?
42:19Don't need no proof.
42:20I'm the sheriff, ain't I?
42:22And I'm on my way to grab that Sloan critter right now.
42:25You may not need proof just to arrest a man, but reversing a decision is another matter.
42:29Sheriff, I'm going along with you.
42:40Looks like Burns' old gang is getting curious.
42:43I reckon I'd better lead them back to the Double Eagles while you go on.
42:52It's worth the ride out there anyway.
42:57You can't get away from us, Sheriff.
43:00We heard about the shooting.
43:01Ain't you two going back to St. Louis yet?
43:03Are you going to arrest Sloan?
43:05I tried to, but you reckon he heard I was coming.
43:07You're going to keep after him, aren't you?
43:08You ain't going to pry no information out of me, young woman.
43:11There's something up.
43:15Well, what are we waiting for?
43:17I guess it means another ride in that buckboard.
43:19But this time, I'll do the driving.
43:21Looks like Ruth Bouldering and that Greg feller.
43:41I wonder what they're doing here.
43:43I don't know.
43:44I was figuring I'm barging right in, but now I reckon the situation calls for a little detective agent.
43:50I don't know.
43:51I don't know.
43:52I don't know.
43:53I don't know.
43:54I don't know.
43:55I don't know.
43:56I don't know.
43:57I don't know.
43:58I don't know.
43:59I don't know.
44:00I don't know.
44:01I don't know.
44:02I don't know.
44:03I don't know.
44:04I don't know.
44:05I don't know.
44:06I don't know.
44:07I don't know.
44:08I don't know.
44:09I don't know.
44:10I don't know.
44:11I don't know.
44:12I don't know.
44:13I don't know.
44:14I don't know.
44:15I don't know.
44:16I don't know.
44:17I don't know.
44:18I don't know.
44:19What's this fool story you're trying to tell me?
44:28Well, it couldn't be Jesse James.
44:30Must have been Clint Burns that got killed up there.
44:32Once we got suspicious, I took a good look at that fellow.
44:34I knew for sure it wasn't Clint.
44:39No ordinary shot could have outshot me that way.
44:41I might have known it was Jesse James.
44:46There's a couple of fellas peeking in the window.
44:48It looks like the sheriff.
44:49Who's with him?
44:50He feels mighty like Judge Rutherford.
44:52Of course, I couldn't be sure in the dark.
44:54Rutherford.
44:55You wait here, Mose.
44:56Yes, sir.
45:00Come here, Balder.
45:00I want you to help me with this.
45:10You better take a look at this, too, Greg.
45:12I want to be sure I have the facts right.
45:14I've heard all the evidence of collusion I need.
45:18I wonder what all that writing's about.
45:24Go tell him what Gregor's up to.
45:34Look out!
45:35Walter, you come with me.
45:58Greg, you and Sloane take the Sand Hill Road.
46:00That way we'll cut them off.
46:05Oh, they'll catch up with him, sure.
46:07We've got to get Jesse.
46:09Hang on!
46:10Here comes the other ones, Judge.
46:31Maybe we can make it to them rocks.
46:32Maybe we can make it to them rocks.
46:36Let's go!
46:37Maybe we can make it to them.
46:39I'm going to be so close to them, amongst you.
46:39I'm going to be so close to them.
46:42Don't come to get them all over the snow.
46:43What's going on?
46:45I've got to make it to them.
46:45Oh, my goodness.
46:46We've got to get the sand and catch.
46:47I'm going to go.
46:48I'll get you next to them.
46:49I'll get it.
46:49I'll get you next time.
46:50I'll get you with me.
46:51I'll get it.
46:52I'll get you next time.
46:53Did he get you bad?
47:08Not so bad, I can't fight.
47:23We just came from Krager's house.
47:37He and his men discovered Gabby and the judge and started shooting at him.
47:40Well, they got away, but I'm afraid they...
47:41Where were they going?
47:42To Long Valley.
47:53You're not following anybody, mister.
48:00Who says I ain't?
48:23That rock back up and it can hold up for a year.
48:33Yes, but we can't even get a chance to rush.
48:35Somebody will have to climb that rock above them.
48:36It's our only chance.
48:37Balder, come here.
48:41Think you can climb that rock?
48:43Sure.
48:44We'll have to go around and come up from behind.
48:46Then hurry.
48:53Still all right, Gidge?
48:55Never felt better in my life.
49:23Come on up, Krager.
49:33What are you afraid of?
49:34Heh.
49:35I'd like to see him do it.
49:37We're winning this fight hands down.
49:39Go on.
50:08Look, that's Jesse James.
50:38Come on, let's get out of here.
51:08Try and play fast and loose with me, eh?
51:20You're under arrest.
51:21We want the full details, Sheriff.
51:36Give me my book, Jane.
51:37You're not going.
51:39Well, I don't want to outstay my welcome with the judge here.
51:44You mean you're leaving for good?
51:46Well, I have a little place back in Nebraska that kind of needs tending to.
51:49What are the charges, Sheriff?
51:53Mayhem, assault with intent to kill, conspiracy with intent to defraud, and collusion by Cracky.
52:01Here's all my notes.
52:02Maybe they'll help you in writing up the story.
52:05Assault, conspiracy, and collusion by Cracky.
52:08Help me write it.
52:12Well, where...
52:13Where are you going?
52:14It's a little place back in Nebraska that kind of needs tending to.
52:18Bye, Gabby.
52:18You mean you're going away with Jesse James?
52:25I reckon you're a little mixed up, Polly.
52:28Jesse James is dead.
52:29The End
52:38THE END
