00:00Let's follow the path of Dusty's Trail, oh, Dusty's Trail, Dusty's Trail.
00:08A stage and a wagon, a-headin' west, part of a wagon train lost from the rest.
00:16Dusty's the reason for their plight, thanks to Dusty, nothin's right.
00:23Only the wagon master's hand keeps them a-rollin' to the promised land.
00:31Oh, the goin' gets mighty rough, but they don't seem to mind.
00:37It's California, eh, that's the place they must find.
00:43Deserts and rocks are in their way, but they won't stop, come what may.
00:50Mountains and hills that they must scale, but they know they'll make it,
00:56cause they just can't fail on Dusty's Trail.
01:11Buddy, is your wagon master around?
01:14He's out watering the horses.
01:17Well, we'll wait for him.
01:20Oh, that, uh, that really smells good.
01:26Doesn't look too bad, compared to what we get in the army.
01:29Sure, it would be nice to sink our teeth into some real grub for a change.
01:32Help yourselves.
01:43Oh, I forgot to tell you, the potatoes aren't done yet.
01:45Oh, Ryan, what's up?
02:01They're still lettin' you wear those stripes, aren't they?
02:04Cookie, you didn't tell me here that your wagon master was an old yellowleg.
02:07Huh?
02:08Yeah, yellowleg, it's a cavalryman.
02:09They're scotting kind of the yellow stripe they wear down their breeches.
02:12Uh, Ryan here and I used to be in the same coffee together.
02:14Ha, ha, ha, ha.
02:15Callahan, this is me corporal here.
02:17Spryles, I want you to meet the best ex-sergeant that ever wore cross savers.
02:21Ah, you're as full as blarney as ever, aren't you?
02:23Hey, what are you two doin' way out here?
02:25We're lookin' for an army deserter.
02:26I tailed it out of the army with the payroll.
02:29Have you noticed anyone suspicious around, flashin' a lot of gold?
02:33Nope.
02:34Dusty, you seen any strangers?
02:35Yeah.
02:36Or who?
02:36Them.
02:40Hey, Dusty, how you comin' with dinner?
02:45That's him.
02:46He's the deserter!
02:47He's the deserter!
03:07I tell you, that's Webb Matthews, the sidewinder we've been lookin' for.
03:14Will somebody please tell me what's going on here?
03:16He's a member of our wagon train.
03:18Well, that cinches it.
03:19We heard he joined up with the wagon train.
03:21He's the one we're lookin' for, all right.
03:23Ain't he, Orion?
03:28Mm-hmm.
03:30Sure.
03:31Yes, this is the varmint, all right.
03:33I'd know him anywhere.
03:34I was the courier carrying that payroll, 6,000 and gold, and he ambushed me.
03:39My head still aches from where he whacked me.
03:41Well, maybe the whack in your head got you all whacked up.
03:43I tell you, I'm certain.
03:44Will somebody please tell me what's going on?
03:47These men think you're somebody called Webb Matthews, that you're an army deserter, and
03:51you stole some payroll gold.
03:54That's ridiculous.
03:55Well, I've been with this wagon train for the past four months.
03:58That robbery took place five months ago.
04:02Callahan, did you know anything about this man before he joined up with you?
04:06Well, I certainly...
04:06And you, you got any proof at all that you're not Webb Matthews?
04:10Well, of course I...
04:11And do you have any proof at all that you didn't hightail it out of the army?
04:15With the company payroll?
04:17No, but that doesn't mean anything.
04:20All right, Corporal.
04:20Let's take him back to the camp.
04:22Now, wait a minute, Orion.
04:23Now, you know better than to interfere with the army.
04:27This whole thing's absurd.
04:28I'm not going anywhere.
04:29Hold it.
04:31It's all right, Andy.
04:32Better go peaceable.
04:34It's all right.
04:35We know you're innocent.
04:37Well, all right, Mr. Callahan, if you say so.
04:41All right, let's go.
04:42Hey, take it easy on him, Orion.
04:50Get this thing straightened out.
05:04I know.
05:05It's all a misunderstanding.
05:07Yeah.
05:08They got the wrong guy.
05:11Take it from me.
05:12I know men.
05:15Orion's always been as honest as they come.
05:18That's what I can't figure out.
05:22Anybody want to eat?
05:27Me either.
05:28What do you think about this dreadful situation, Carter, dear?
05:32It's quite elementary, really.
05:34Andy's innocent.
05:36How can you be so certain?
05:38Why would anyone want to steal a paltry $6,000?
05:41What are we going to do about Andy?
05:44Well, nothing we can do tonight.
05:46Sleep on it.
05:47Decide in the morning.
05:49If we can sleep.
05:51Mr. Callahan.
05:52Hmm?
05:53I'm really worried about Andy.
05:55So am I.
05:57I don't understand.
05:59Something about Sprouse and Orion that just doesn't ring true.
06:03Yeah.
06:04Yeah.
06:05Come on.
06:06Let's get some sleep.
06:07Think about it in a moment.
06:07Hey, what's going on?
06:23We're sure Andy didn't do what those soldiers said.
06:26We don't know how yet, but we're going to help him.
06:29Aren't we, Carter?
06:30Amicus, non-deserterus, Brookhavenus.
06:36A Brookhaven never deserts a friend.
06:38Damn immoral.
06:40And we're not leaving Andy behind, either.
06:42Well, of course we're not leaving Andy behind.
06:44This wagon train is not going anywhere without him.
06:47No wagon master is worth his salt.
06:49Don't look after his own.
06:51Besides, I got an idea how we can get to the bottom of this whole thing.
06:55Mr. Callahan, I could kiss you.
06:57Yeah, thanks, but right now I need Dusty.
07:03I ain't going to kiss you.
07:08You were saving these old army uniforms for something.
07:10Where'd you get all that stuff?
07:12From the cavalry.
07:13Yeah.
07:14If you take the stripes off of those things, it'll be all right.
07:18If we're going to put these on and go into that camp,
07:21you know that look that Sprouse and Orion gave to each other?
07:24Something funny about that.
07:25Yeah.
07:25And we're doing it for Andy.
07:26That's right.
07:27I can smell an honest man a mile away.
07:29Yeah.
07:30Yeah, here.
07:30I like a similar cavalry.
07:35Now, remember, all you got to do is just blend in with all those soldiers.
07:41Okay, okay.
07:42And never volunteer for anything.
07:44Okay.
07:45And keep your mouth shut.
07:46I'll do all the talking.
07:48Did you hear that?
07:50You keep your mouth shut, and I'll do all the talking.
07:52All right?
07:54How can I talk with my mouth shut?
07:55Come on.
08:04Hey, you.
08:06Us?
08:07Where are you two going?
08:10Yeah.
08:10Well, I'll tell you, we was going to go down there and have a swim.
08:15You got a pass?
08:16No.
08:17You?
08:18He's doing the talking.
08:19Huh?
08:20Yeah, well, he can't talk, so he's got a sore throat.
08:22Well, suppose the both of you just go back in camp, and I'll forget you were sneaking out.
08:27Yeah.
08:27All right.
08:32Well, so far, so good.
08:37Don't salute anybody unless they got some gold on their shoulders.
08:40Hi, buddy.
08:40Hey.
08:41Hey.
08:44Hey.
08:45Look.
08:49Boy.
08:50I bet he makes the dinner first.
08:56Let's go.
08:57Hey, Andy.
09:02What are you doing here?
09:05Those shoe-niforms.
09:06We come to get you out of here.
09:07We know you're innocent.
09:08Mr. Gallagher's going to smell you a mile away.
09:10You know, if you're telling it to them, Sproul's is lying.
09:12Don't you read about a thing, Andy.
09:13We're going to find all the facts.
09:14It's so loud.
09:16I appreciate what you're doing, but you're taking your life in your hands.
09:19Also, a mustache.
09:20What's happening?
09:23Oh, God.
09:24We were just having a look around, sir.
09:26Well, talking to prisoners isn't allowed.
09:28Don't you have other duties?
09:29No, sir.
09:30We don't volunteer for anything.
09:32I'm volunteering you for that drill squad over there.
09:35Get moving.
09:36Yes, sir.
09:38Go.
09:39Go.
09:39Touch me.
09:49Here, you two.
09:54Here, snap to it.
09:55Now, you two fall in with the rest of them recruits.
09:58Now, let's look alive right here now, squad.
10:01All right.
10:02Squad.

10:22Fire it.
10:23Fire it.
10:24Not right.

10:29Hit.
10:29Hit.
10:29Hit.
10:34Oh, shut up.
10:37It won't be long now.
10:41They'll court-martial that wagon-train guy, and Web and me, it'll be off the hook.
10:45I don't like it.
10:46I just don't like it.
10:47You don't have to like it, Orion.
10:49You just go along with it, and you'll get your share of the gold.
10:52Enough to pay off your gambling debts.
10:54Either that or a bullet in your gut.
10:56Take your pick.
10:58That Orion never could play poker.
11:01As soon as I identify that guy at the trial, I'm off to join Web.
11:04We'll split up the loot and send you what's coming to you.
11:07Hey, the three of them are in this thing together.
11:11It was a sorry day when I met the likes of you.
11:14We all have our price, Orion.
11:16All I did was meet yours.
11:18Hey, come on.
11:19We've got to go save Andy.
11:20Hey, come on.
11:24Hold it right there.
11:27All right, hold it right there.
11:31Callahan.
11:33You're under arrest.
11:34Well, I don't mind telling you people, I'm worried
11:44Now, Callahan and Dusty should have been back by now
11:47I hope nothing's happened to them
11:49I'll go
11:49So will I
11:50No, no, no, no, no
11:52It's my place, I won't hear tell of it
11:54Besides, it is a man's job
11:56No offense, Mr. Brookhaven
11:59But I really think Lulu and I could do a better job
12:02A better...
12:04What do you mean?
12:05Well, you see, there are things that we could accomplish with soldiers that you can't
12:11Oh, yes, yes, of course
12:14That is a possibility I hadn't thought of
12:17So what can they do?
12:20We're not in the army anyway
12:21So they'll make us civilians
12:22Listen, we are charged with spying and impersonating soldiers, Dusty
12:26We're in big trouble
12:27Hey, okay
12:29Let's break it up, huh?
12:34No, no, no
12:47Let's see, just a second
12:51No, no
12:59Here.
13:06Wait, get the...
13:08Let's try again.
13:10Put the logs down.
13:12Now, let's see.
13:16Oh, here, I know.
13:18I think I got you.
13:27Candy?
13:29Get up.
13:34Just a minute, ladies. State your business, please.
13:48Oh, well, you see, our wagon train was passing through the territory, and we heard there was a little old army encampment nearby. Are you what they call a major or a colonel?
14:02Well, uh, no. Not exactly. My job's more important.
14:18Oh, Betsy, did you hear that? That's so exciting. What do you do?
14:26I keep those outside from coming in and those inside from going out.
14:30It does sound important.
14:32But why would anyone want to leave a delightful place like this?
14:38I've got three prisoners who'd like to give it a try.
14:44Prisoners?
14:46Yep. Wait in court, Marshal. General Cunningham's coming tomorrow to preside over the trial.
14:51Oh, that sounds so thrilling. What do you suppose is going to happen to him?
14:56What do you think happens to spies and deserters?
14:59Oh, my. We'd give anything if we could see a real, live prisoner.
15:06Anything?
15:09Oh.
15:14I'll, uh, see what I can do.
15:25This here Cunningham's coming in tomorrow to run the whole shebang.
15:31You're wrong, Lulu.
15:32But that's what the sentry said.
15:34He's coming today.
15:35Here's what I want you to do.
15:50Private, you will please inform your commanding officer
15:53that General Cunningham has arrived to preside over the court-martial.
15:59Oh, uh, uh, my, uh, stagecoach broke down, uh, two miles down the road,
16:03and, uh, my men are repairing it.
16:06But the general wasn't expected until tomorrow.
16:08Tomorrow what?
16:09Tomorrow, sir.
16:10Sir what?
16:11Sir General Cunningham, sir.
16:12That's better. I'm recommending you for corporal.
16:15Now hurry up and announce me to your commanding officer.
16:17I have to get back to the war.
16:20What war is that, sir?
16:21The military, there is always a war going on somewhere.
16:24Yes, sir.
16:25Right this way, sir.
16:26Hey, these are great seats. Right down the front.
16:27Hey, these are great seats. Right down the front.
16:32Ten, good.
16:33General Cunningham, sir. How good to see you.
16:35Oh, yes, sir.
16:36General Cunningham, sir. How good to see you.
16:37Oh, uh, have you met me before?
16:38Oh, I know, sir.
16:39Hey, these are great seats, right down front.
16:53Team, good!
16:58General Cunningham, sir.
17:00How good to see you.
17:02Oh, have you met me before?
17:05Oh, I know, sir.
17:06Oh, and this is indeed a pleasure, sir.
17:08May I introduce my wife, Mrs. General Cunningham,
17:13and my two lovely daughters, Miss Lulu Belle Cunningham
17:17and Miss Betsy Belle Cunningham.
17:20Charming.
17:22Ladies, will you be seated?
17:34We can begin the trial, sir.
17:38Where's my gavel?
17:43Right here, sir.
17:47Plain oak.
17:48I'm accustomed to mahogany.
17:50Oh, well, I suppose you have to make do out here in the wilderness.
17:54I hope this never gets back to the point.
17:56Well, who is the trial counsel here?
18:01I am, sir.
18:04I am, sir.
18:05You are?
18:07You're kind of young.
18:08You sure you know your law?
18:09I studied at Yale, sir.
18:12Yale?
18:12Well, it's not exactly Harvard, is it?
18:17But I suppose some of us have to struggle through life with some sort of a handicap.
18:21All right.
18:22Then if you may call your first witness.
18:24The court calls Corporal Sprowls.
18:31Can you identify the man who attacked you and stole the army payroll?
18:35Yes, sir.
18:36It was Webb Matthews.
18:37Is he present?
18:38And if so, can you point him out?
18:40That's him.
18:46I object!
18:48Sir, you can't object.
18:50You're the presiding officer.
18:51A mere technicality.
18:53Are you familiar with the case of Lucas versus White?
18:56No, sir.
18:57Well, the objection is sustained.
18:59Are you going to get back to your law books?
19:02Yes, sir.
19:03The court now calls Sergeant Orion as a witness.
19:08Yes, sir.
19:10Sergeant, will you tell the court what the other two prisoners were doing when you apprehended them?
19:15Yes, sir.
19:16Well, you see, they were in uniform, pretending to be soldiers.
19:20And they were spying on this here military outpost.
19:24Orion, you're a disgrace to that uniform.
19:26I object!
19:27Your objection is completely out of line, Lieutenant.
19:30Are you familiar with the case of Wayne versus Garrett?
19:34Yes, sir.
19:35You are?
19:37Well, there's this other case of...
19:38Duval versus Lovelace.
19:42That reverses Wayne versus Garrett.
19:43No, sir.
19:45The Tyson-Danbury decision reversed Wayne versus Garrett.
19:52Correct.
19:53I'm just putting you to the test, and you've passed for once.
19:58Sir, I don't believe I need more testimony.
20:01And I'm prepared to deliver my summation.
20:04Good.
20:04Well, I hope it's a brief one.
20:07In the immortal words of Chief Justice John Marshall, a brief summation is a good summation.
20:13Never, in all the annals of military history, have any more dastardly crimes been committed by a soldier and his two cohorts.
20:23To assault a poor, defenseless, enlisted man in the act of doing his duty.
20:29To steal the hard-earned wages of our self-sacrificing brave fighting men.
20:36To dress up in an honorable uniform for the dishonorable purpose of ferreting out military secrets and delivering them to the enemies of the United States of America.
20:47The home of the free and the land of the brave.
20:52This, sir, is nothing short of treason.
20:55They're guilty, the whole treason.
20:57Well done, Lieutenant.
21:09I was carried away with your eloquence.
21:12Now we must hear from the defense side.
21:17Who is the defense counsel here?
21:21I will speak with the three of us, sir.
21:24I agree with everything the lieutenant says about that robbery.
21:27The only trouble is, he's got the wrong man.
21:30Now, Dusty and I here was dressed up like that because we was trying to find out the real truth.
21:35Uh, I addressed my case.
21:42I have now heard both sides of the case.
21:45And wishing to be completely unbiased, unprejudiced, and impartial.
21:51And with the facts on one side completely outweighing the lies on the other.
21:56So, I declare these three men innocent.
22:03General Cunningham, sir.
22:06General Cunningham.
22:07No, sir.
22:07What do you have to say for yourself?
22:09Uh, you're a day early.
22:11Wait a minute, General.
22:14Andy here is not Webb Matthews, you see.
22:17Of course he isn't Webb Matthews.
22:19Webb Matthews was captured three days ago with the payroll goal.
22:22They made a full confession.
22:23I'm here bringing you the news.
22:25Oh, well then you're going to watch Sprouse and Orion.
22:28Easy and dusting, Dusty.
22:37We'll get that on there in a minute now.
22:39What's that?
22:39Oh, man.
22:40How are these men?
22:46We will bivouac here for the night.
22:48March out at 0500.
22:50Okay, Mr. Brookhaven.
22:51Mr. Brookhaven what?
22:54Mr. Brookhaven, sir, General.
22:55Mr. Brookhaven, what are you talking about?
22:58We're not in the army anymore.
22:59I know.
23:00But Mrs. Brookhaven finds me so much more exciting this way in a uniform than I thought I'd be surprised.
23:08Mr. Brookhaven, sir, General.
23:38Let's follow the path of Dusty's Trail, oh, Dusty's Trail, Dusty's Trail.
24:04A stage and a wagon are heading west, part of a wagon train lost from the rest.
24:13Dusty's the reason for their plight.
24:17Thanks to Dusty, nothing's right.
24:20Only the wagon master's hand keeps them rolling to the promised land.
24:27All the going gets mighty rough, but they don't seem to mind.
24:34It's California, eh?
24:36That's the place they must find.
24:40Deserts and rocks are in their way, but they won't stop, come what may.
24:47Mountains and hills that they must scale,
24:50But they know they'll make it cause they just can't fail on Dusty's Trail.
