Across the endless plains and crimson sunsets of the frontier, a lone rider returns to a town he once called home.
Haunted by a past he can’t forget and a love he left behind, he finds that time and the wind still carry the same old songs — of hope, regret, and redemption.
With music that echoes through the desert canyons and hearts that refuse to fade, Whispers of the Western Wind is a timeless western ballad of courage, loss, and the promise of a new dawn.

00:00The End
00:30I hereby notify the holders of the within described property that at a public sale conducted on the ninth day of May, the property, known as the Prentice Ranch, was sold to the highest bidder, Ramsey McCall. The peasant holders are hereby notified to vacate, and it's signed by the sheriff. I never heard of the auction or the tax bill.
00:52They can't pull anything like this. I'm going to find out about it.
01:00Looks like he's riding towards town, McCall. He may try to start something.
01:08If he starts anything in my office, Sloan will take care of him. I promise you that.
01:30Hey, Roy! Where's that story you told me to read about South Creek?
01:41What do you care? You can't see to read it anyway. You broke your glasses.
01:44Never mind, I found it.
01:58Hey, what's South Creek to you? You ain't been there ten years.
02:12Did you ever hear of the K.R. Ranch, Gabby? The K is for Judge Kirby's brother. The R is for Rogers. That was my father. They were partners.
02:20Well, there ain't no reason why you should go traipsin' off down there just when the Rodeo's is gettin' started.
02:27Well, I kind of hate to disappoint you, Gabby, but Judge Kirby's in trouble.
02:30And if I didn't want to help one of the Kirbys after all they've done for me, I'd be ashamed to look at myself in the mirror.
02:36You've been lookin'. What you've seen must have been a Robin Hood or a Don Coyote or somebody that's always messin' in other people's business.
02:43Well, I've been wanting to go back down there anyway, see what the old place looks like.
02:46I know you too well for that. There's a woman or something.
02:50Well, there used to be. She was Judge Kirby's niece. They lived there on the ranch.
02:55Raven beauty, I suppose.
02:56No, she was a homie little old kid I got stuck on long about the time I was wearin' my first long pants.
03:02I'm kind of curious to see what she looks like.
03:04I know there was a woman in Summers.
03:07Well, as long as you're so dead shot I'm goin', I suppose you just sum it up for me.
03:11It ain't just clear in my mind.
03:13There's a man named Prentiss had his ranch bought out from under him for failin' to pay an old tax bill.
03:18When his son went to protest, he was shot and wounded by a deputy named Bill Sloan.
03:23For some reason or other, Judge Kirby'd Sloan go.
03:26Now the whole county's yellin' for the judges.
03:28He's as if the judge's got that scalp treatment comin' to him.
03:31You're wrong, Gabby.
03:32If the judge is in on any crooked deal, it isn't because he wants to be.
03:35You?
03:36Well, there's an awful lot of easy money around them rodeos.
03:41While you're winnin' some prices, I could be back to the barn doin' a little gambling.
03:46Picking up all that soft money.
03:48Seems to me like the last time you had to borrow enough money to get home on them.
03:52Oh, shucks.
03:53I was just givin' him the come on till next year.
03:57What do you say? You comin' along?
03:59Who, me?
04:00I sure'd say not.
04:02Not with all them rodeo pigeons waitin' around to get their wings clipped.
04:09Hey, tell you what to do.
04:11We're leavin' to chance.
04:13Tails, I ride with you to your hometown.
04:15Heads, we take you in the Lodale.
04:17What do you say, huh?
04:18Now, just a minute, Gabby.
04:19You know better than to try to fool me with this two-headed coin.
04:23Looks like they're goin' someplace to make somethin' happen.
04:32Yeah.
04:33See where you are.
04:53What do you want?
04:54We've got an eviction notice.
04:56We're takin' over the ranch.
04:57I expected that, Meade.
04:59But you're not servin' it.
05:00We're comin' in.
05:19What'd I kill you?
05:19I think I hit him.
05:48That ain't your fight, Roy.
06:17Why isn't it?
06:18Four against one doesn't look fair to me.
06:22Nelson, stay here and take charge.
06:23Okay, Louie.
06:24If you get a good shot at him, let him have it.
06:26We'll drag him back here and say he was killed for resisting eviction.
06:29Come on.
06:29All right, let's go, Louie.
06:39Come on.
06:39Come on.
06:41Come on.
06:42Come on.
06:43Come on.
06:43Oh, my God.
07:13Oh, my God.
07:43You better go hook the old man.
07:47I'll try to run him off.
07:47I'll try to run him off.
08:17I don't know who you are, stranger, but you're sure mighty welcome.
08:43Them wolves just about have me quelled.
08:44Yeah, wolves is right.
08:46Deputy Sheriff's clothing.
08:52Is he with you?
08:54He sure is.
08:55Did you see the way he drove them wolves out of the pasture?
08:58Say, you're wounded.
08:59We better get you to a doctor.
09:00I don't know what your double-crossing game is, but I don't want any of your help now or any other time.
09:07You sure you want me to help you on your horse?
09:11That's a gratitude for you.
09:13What do you ever do to him?
09:15Nothing as I know of.
09:16Who is he?
09:17Old man Prentiss.
09:18Prentiss?
09:19Yeah, what you just saw was probably the actual taking over of his ranch.
09:23What are we took you for?
09:24Well, I don't know, but the sooner we get started, the quicker we'll find out.
09:27How did you get in?
09:47I walked in.
09:48If you're so jumpy about visitors, you better keep your doors locked.
09:50I can't have you coming up here.
09:52You know how it is in a town like this.
09:53Everybody knows everything that goes on.
09:55Oh, yeah?
09:56Well, we're really going to give them something to talk about.
09:59Maybe you don't know it, but you're taking me to that dance tonight.
10:01Are you out of your mind?
10:03I can't be seen with a girl who's been running around with Bill Sloan.
10:05Do you mean you're putting on a front for this one-horse town?
10:08Don't make me laugh.
10:09Listen, Julie, I'm not taking you anywhere, get that?
10:13And you'll have to stay away from this office.
10:14That doesn't give me much of a break.
10:16You tell Bill to clear out, and I'm supposed to sit around here biting my nails.
10:19I just don't happen to be the type.
10:21That was the deal I made with the judge.
10:23Kirby didn't have enough to hold him on,
10:25but he didn't want him around.
10:26I don't care whose idea it was.
10:27The main thing is he's gone.
10:32What's all the excitement?
10:34Just a couple of the boys hurt, that's all.
10:35Phil and Nitty.
10:36We served those papers, and the old man put up a fight.
10:39Well, that takes care of Prentiss on a felony charge.
10:42Prentiss started the shooting,
10:43but somebody else fired the shots that hit him.
10:45I couldn't tell whether his neighbors are friends of his.
10:47I'll still say it was Prentiss.
10:49I'll get out of warrant.
10:50Looks like you're doing all right around here, Mac.
10:52What do you want that old fellow's ranch for?
10:54Gonna start raising beef?
10:56It's not what's on top of that land, Julie.
10:58It's what's underneath that counts.
11:00You mean a gold mine?
11:01Something like that.
11:02Come on.
11:02Mac, Louie, come here quick.
11:13Look who's back.
11:14Big as life and twice as handsome.
11:16Bill Sloan.
11:21I wonder who Whiskers is.
11:22I never saw him before.
11:23I told Sloan not to show up till I sent for him.
11:26Get him up here.
11:28I'll talk to him after I get this warrant over to the judge.
11:30Do it.
11:38Never mind about Sloan.
11:40I'll tell him.
11:41Okay.
11:46Be some good gambling going on in the back rooms of them buildings.
11:50Hey, them's my guaranteed natural sevens.
11:53Yeah?
11:53The last time you sneaked them into a game,
11:55a fellow made 17 straight passes against you.
11:58I never brag, but my temperament's right.
12:01And I'm just a little bit wild.
12:02Don't you listen to it.
12:03I cut my teeth on a hunk of change lights.
12:05And I'm Mother Nature's problem child.
12:07It's a lie.
12:08It's a truth.
12:08So help me.
12:09It's a lie.
12:10It's a fact.
12:11It's a lie.
12:12He's a tall tale spinner and a first prize winner.
12:14And the thing he does best is lies.
12:15Says who?
12:16Says we.
12:16Get the truth.
12:17Says who?
12:18Says me.
12:18It's a lie.
12:19Oh, hunk waller.
12:42I led the troops at the Bunker Hill Battle
12:44and the Chargers-elect Brigade.
12:46Don't you listen to it.
12:47They shot my horse, but I took my saddle
12:49and I finished on the back of my renegade.
12:51Hey, Gabby.
12:52That must be Ann Kirby.
12:54It's a fact, says I.
12:55He's a tall tale spinner and a first prize winner.
12:57Hold me to the brat, just like you said.
13:00Says who?
13:00Says me.
13:00It's a truth.
13:01Says who?
13:01Says me.
13:02It's a lie.
13:03Oh, bitter.
13:04I'm quite a guy with the pretty gals also.
13:07That's just a part of my rep.
13:08Don't you listen to him.
13:09I got a way to make the pretty gals fall so pretty, little gal.
13:12You better watch your step.
13:13It's a lie.
13:14It's a truth, though, help me.
13:15It's a lie.
13:16It's a fact, says I.
13:17He's a tall tale spinner and a first prize winner.
13:20And the thing he does best is lies.
13:21Says who?
13:22Says we.
13:22It's a truth.
13:23Says who?
13:24Says me.
13:24And the thing he does best is lies.
13:26Oh, hunk waller.
13:34Gee, I thought you were never coming back.
13:38Hey, wait a minute.
13:39Take it easy.
13:40Am I glad to see you.
13:42What's going on here?
13:43Where'd you pick up Santa Claus?
13:45He didn't pick me up either.
13:47What do you mean, Santa Claus?
13:48This is Gabby Whittaker.
13:50I'm Julie Craig.
13:51Hiya, Pop.
13:53Say, you know you got back just in time to take me to the dance tonight.
13:56I'm sorry, Julie, but I have a lot of things to...
13:58Oh, don't give me that.
13:59There's two beautiful girls over there selling tickets, and you're going to get them.
14:02Now hurry back.
14:05You sure you ain't been back to this town for ten years?
14:08I'm beginning to wonder myself.
14:10That gal must think you're the same fellow apprentice mistook you for.
14:14That spittin' image of yours sure must be a fast worker with the women.
14:19Maybe that's a break for me.
14:23That's just a sample of what you'll hear tonight.
14:26A little bit hard.
14:27And two for me, Ann.
14:28Why did you come back here?
14:29You caused my uncle enough trouble.
14:31What do you mean?
14:32Here, Gwen.
14:33Take care of him.
14:34Wait a minute, Ann.
14:40That fellow Sloan seems to be making a play for your girlfriend all of a sudden.
14:44Good enough you turnin' that gunman loose, but he's back here again.
15:03That's just another example of what's happened to law and order in this town.
15:06But Sloan isn't back.
15:08He can't be.
15:08He certainly is.
15:13I thought we'd seen the last of you.
15:15We've had enough of your kind of justice, Kirby.
15:17You better pack up and get out of office.
15:19I'm gonna take this whole thing up for the governor.
15:21You're a little too sure of yourself, Sloan.
15:25I have no legal authority to make you stay out of town.
15:28But you'll find out I meant what I told you.
15:30Told me?
15:32Well, now, wait a minute.
15:33We better get this thing straightened out.
15:34A trouble you've caused can never be straightened out.
15:36But it might help a little if you'd stay just as far away as possible.
15:40That sounds plain enough to me.
15:41How about you?
15:42I told you we ought to went to them rodeos.
15:50No wonder old man Prentiss acted the way he did.
15:53Why don't you tell everybody who you are?
15:55If everybody thinks I'm Sloan, I'll be Sloan.
15:57That way I might be able to find out who's behind all this.
16:00A stag nabbit.
16:00It's just like sticking your head in a noose, Roy.
16:03The name's Sloan.
16:06You let me take care of this, Ann.
16:08Sloan isn't your worry.
16:09I'll find some way to deal with him.
16:11We'll see you later, Judge.
16:12Fine if I come in, Judge?
16:25Got a warrant I want you to sign.
16:26You got the gall to come in here asking me to sign warrants
16:29when that gunman of yours is around town again?
16:31I saw Sloan ride in a little while ago.
16:33But don't worry.
16:34He won't be here long.
16:35Well, he's done enough damage already.
16:37Prentiss was in here complaining his head off.
16:39He threatens to take the whole case to the governor.
16:41The governor?
16:43That might make trouble for both of us.
16:46I guess you won't mind signing this warrant after all.
16:48It's for Jim Prentiss.
16:50On a charge of attempted murder.
16:52Attempted murder?
16:53That's right.
16:54He shot and wounded two deputies
16:56when they tried to serve that eviction notice.
16:58Well, it's too bad he didn't kill them.
17:00I never should have signed that eviction order in the first place.
17:02You didn't have much choice in the matter.
17:03I've taken all I'm going to take from you, McCall.
17:06I stood by while Prentiss Ranch was sold out under him.
17:08I shut my eyes when that gunman of yours
17:10put his son in the hospital without giving him a chance.
17:12You forced me to release Sloan
17:13on a trumped-up self-defense plea.
17:15Well, now I'm through.
17:16You take that warrant and get out.
17:17You'll sign that the same as you've signed all the others.
17:26Someday you're going up for blackmail, McCall.
17:31Well, what are they doing now?
17:33Selling tickets to charity dances in the courthouse?
17:36No.
17:36I didn't think they were.
17:38Here, you owe me for these.
17:39You're picking me up tonight, 8 o'clock.
17:41I'm tired of being on time for a change.
17:43Darn persnickety female.
17:49You ain't taking her to the dance, are you?
17:51Why not?
17:51That'll give me a chance to ask a few questions
17:53and find out something.
17:54Roy?
17:56Sloan, I mean.
17:57Ordinary women is bad enough,
17:59but that one's plum dynamite.
18:01From now on, you ain't getting out of my sight.
18:03I'm going to get a ticket myself.
18:10How about one of them tickets?
18:12Here you are.
18:12One dollar.
18:13Teddy, what'll do?
18:14Match you for it.
18:15Double or nothing.
18:16Head, you give me a ticket.
18:17Tails will pay you two dollars.
18:19Fair enough.
18:22Hey, what are you doing?
18:24Tails.
18:25Two dollars, please.
18:27Well, of all that ding-busted luck,
18:30letting a woman beat me to the draw.
18:35Hey!
18:36Hey!
18:42I think we better dance.
19:03See, Abby, this is our first dance,
19:16but if you're cutting in,
19:17I guess I'll have to wait.
19:18This must be my lucky night.
19:28How many, please?
19:29Just guessing, I'd say you were taking quite a chance.
19:32Somebody might step up,
19:33but you didn't want to kiss.
19:33And just guessing,
19:34I'd say you wanted to spend all of this?
19:36Sure.
19:37Shoot the works.
19:37That's me.
19:38Anything for charity.
19:40Say, does this sign mean what it says?
19:42Of course.
19:43See, I've got to give this a little thought.
19:46We'll make the first one, uh,
19:48right about there.
19:50Anything you say.
19:51Here, Mad, you take care of him.
19:52Wait a minute.
19:53Where are you going?
19:53Sorry, my time's up.
19:56Don't you want your kisses?
19:57Now, you better keep him.
19:58You might run out.
20:00Say, what's the big idea of palming me off
20:02on that bearded rascal?
20:03You mean Gabby?
20:04You've heard me.
20:06All right, ladies and gentlemen,
20:08I have an announcement to make.
20:10Comes now the big prize contest of the evening,
20:13the Blind Pie Auction.
20:16Now, to most of you folks here in South Creek,
20:18this is more or less a tradition,
20:20but there are some newcomers amongst you,
20:22so I'd better explain a bit.
20:24Most of the ladies here tonight
20:26have brought along homemade pies
20:27to be auctioned off.
20:29Now, you men are going to bid on those pies.
20:30You're going to bid on them by numbers.
20:32You're not going to know who baked them
20:33or anything about them.
20:35But the winning bidder gets to share the pie
20:37with the lady what baked it.
20:38After which, and if you're able, of course,
20:40you'll dance the next dance with said lady.
20:45Now, if you're all ready, Pat Brady.
20:46Pat, come on up here.
20:47You didn't bake a pie, did you?
20:49Are you kidding?
20:50I didn't think you did.
20:52Pat's going to take over from here on out,
20:54and boys, if you'll play a little auction,
20:56and air music,
20:57I'm going out and see if I can't bid
20:58on the right pie for a change.
21:02Here we go, man.
21:03I can see your mouth of water and all ready.
21:05Number 10, what I'm offering.
21:0775.
21:07Don't beat pikers, man.
21:08Who'll say a dollar?
21:10Something tells me that this is a strawberry pie
21:12baked by a strawberry blonde.
21:15Tantalizing.
21:15Sweet as honey and full of spice.
21:18But don't get me wrong, boys.
21:19It's the pie I'm recommending,
21:20not the lady.
21:21$1.
21:22$1.
21:23$1.
21:23$1.
21:24$1.
21:24$1.
21:24$1.
21:24$2.
21:24Do I hear $2?
21:26Sold to a bird cutler.
21:27All right.
21:27All right, here we go, man.
21:48A lot of pies over there.
21:49Nobody's picked a lemon yet.
21:51Number 4.
21:52$2.
21:53Do I hear $3?
21:54$3.
21:55Make it $4.
21:57How about you, Bob?
21:58Any bids?
22:01$4 is bid.
22:02$5.
22:03$5.
22:03$5.
22:04$10.
22:05$10?
22:06$10 going once, going twice.
22:09Sold for $10.
22:10$10.
22:18Number 4.
22:19Miss Ann Kirby.
22:25Sloan must have pulled a fast one.
22:27Yes.
22:28He's going to be badly disappointed.
22:32I hope you like your own cooking.
22:34I can stand it if you can.
22:36I'd certainly like to know how you arranged this.
22:38I didn't do anything.
22:39But I saw your friend Julie switch those numbers.
22:41Yes, but what you didn't see was the committee woman switching them back again.
22:44All right.
22:44All right.
22:44All right.
22:44All right.
22:49How will this do?
22:55All right, I guess.
23:01What's wrong with you?
23:02You don't act the same since you've been back.
23:04You don't even seem like Bill Sloan anymore.
23:06I guess I forgot myself.
23:07You bet you.
23:13What do you think you're doing?
23:14Huh?
23:15Who?
23:16Me?
23:16Nothing.
23:17Then get out of here.
23:19Oh, good evening, Mr. Sloan.
23:22I didn't know you were back in town.
23:23Good evening.
23:24Don't you want your key?
23:26Oh, yes, my key.
23:27I still have your old room, Mr. Sloan.
23:29Thanks.
23:36Now then, maybe we can settle this business about Ann Kirby.
23:41There isn't anything to settle.
23:42Oh, there isn't, huh?
23:44Well, let me tell you something.
23:45One more exhibition like you gave tonight, and I'll bust that Kirby set up wide open.
23:50I'll bet you can do it, too.
23:53Maybe I will.
23:56I'm looking out for myself, whether it spoils McCall's little hold over the judge or not.
24:01If I start talking, I can run that Kirby girl right out of town.
24:05Don't get any idea.
24:06I don't know what's going on.
24:08Ann's father was a crook.
24:10Two years before he died, he walked off with a bundle of county funds.
24:14And Judge Kirby doesn't want any skeletons being rattled.
24:17One blast from me, and the law moves in to take over the Kirby ranch.
24:21In case you don't know it, that means Ann Kirby will wind up on a fast train for oblivion.
24:28Do I make myself clear?
24:31I think I get the general idea.
24:34Well, it's the last time I'm going to tell you.
24:37Now, clear out of here before I start throwing furniture.
24:40All right, all right, I'm going.
24:50What's wrong with you?
24:51Don't you know the way to your own room?
24:53I guess I'm a little absent-minded.
24:55I guess I'm going to tell you.
25:25Oh, Gabby!
25:53Well, who'd you think it was?
25:56I had a hard enough time finding out which room you was in.
25:58What are you looking for?
26:12Maybe you, mine.
26:12What in the world do you expect to find here, anyway?
26:24That woman.
26:26You got her hit out Summers.
26:27Well, you won't find her here.
26:39She's in her own room.
26:40Oh, you know, Roy, you ain't being fair with yourself impersonating that fresh-working gunman.
26:49Suppose you find out, you'll end up under a cactus bush with a bullet in your back.
26:54Well, maybe.
26:56But I'm beginning to find out where Judge Kirby stands.
26:58So that's what you were doing with Ann all evening, huh?
27:01Well, she doesn't seem to know much about it, but Jewie does.
27:03There's a man by the name of McCall that's been blackmailing the judge.
27:06Blackmailing?
27:06How?
27:08He's got the judges thinking his brother stole some county funds, but I don't believe it.
27:11So we're staying, huh?
27:13Yeah.
27:14I'm riding out to the old ranch in the morning where the Kirbys first homesteaded.
27:20Might be worth a look around.
27:27What's this for?
27:37Hey, Sloan.
27:38Didn't Julie Craig tell you to see McCall?
27:40No, why?
27:41We're going up there.
27:42He wants to talk to you.
27:47You took your own time getting up there.
27:50Well, I'm here now.
27:51What do you want?
27:51I want to know what you're doing back in town, that's all.
27:53Why don't you stay where you want and I sent for you?
27:55What's the difference?
27:56The judge turned me loose, didn't he?
27:57That was too raw.
27:59Even for this town, everybody's been yelling their heads off.
28:01And if that isn't bad enough, Prentice knows you're back.
28:04He's taking the whole case to the governor.
28:06And unless we can get to him first.
28:09I've been trying to locate him.
28:10Maybe this is it.
28:12Hello?
28:13Yes?
28:14Good.
28:14Where is he?
28:16Right.
28:16I'll take care of it.
28:18What a break for us.
28:19He was staying at the Belknock Ranch.
28:20Louie, this is a job for you and Eddie.
28:22Now, there's only one road that Prentice can possibly take.
28:25You've got the warrant for him.
28:26Louie, you know how to handle this.
28:29Just like it had already happened.
28:30Prentice was killed resisting arrest.
28:32Right.
28:33I'll get a move on.
28:34If it's money you came back for, this will be enough to take care of you.
28:39Now, get out of town and keep going.
28:40You notice anything about him?
28:50What do you mean?
28:52Nothing.
28:53Only I heard Julie say she didn't think he was Sloan.
28:55What are you trying to hand me?
28:57Well, anyway, she said he didn't act like he used to.
29:02Get out of here.
29:03Listen to me, you're trying to get somewhere powerful fast.
29:24They're going after Prentice and I've got to beat them to it.
29:26I'm going with you and keep you out of trouble.
29:33I'm going with you.
30:03I'm going with you.
30:33All right, get them up.
30:55Oh, me?
30:57What for?
30:58We're going down there and you're riding in front of this gun.
31:01I'll explain on the way.
31:02Hurry up.
31:07Hey there!
31:08Get a little careless, aren't you?
31:25You almost had yourself a first-class witness.
31:27What's the idea, Sloan?
31:28I thought Whiskers was a friend of yours.
31:30I picked him up on the road the other day.
31:31I guess he doesn't know enough to mind his own business.
31:35Grab them guards.
31:37Get a rope.
31:38Tie them up.
31:42Careful there, mister.
31:42I'm a regular wildcat when I get riled.
31:50Sound like I come from over there.
31:51Get a move on.
32:07Get a move on.
32:09Get a move on.
32:10Get a move on.
32:11Get a move on.

32:28we've got to get these men to a doctor well we'll take care of that don't take
32:43us into town McCall's men are trying to kill Prentice well let's see now yeah
32:48we'll take you up to the line camp Pat go phone the doctor bring him up there
32:52you're going along too just in case Prentice don't pull through all right
32:56boys pick up those guns
32:57I caught him red-handed trying to kill old man Prentice come on get in there step lively now
33:16hey Matt you'd better get over to the jail in a hurry that old timer's been hanging around Bill
33:28Sloan just brought Ed and Louie in brought Ed and Louie in yes tied up and with a gun on them
33:33hello judge Kirby McCall get over to the jail right away I'll tell you when we get there
33:45right I'll meet you out front I ain't seen anybody as cold-blooded as them do since I
33:51was scouting for Custer well howdy mr. McCall judge I'll have you out in five minutes and is this the
33:59public-spirited citizen who brought them in that's me mister sheriff this is a positive outrage
34:04holding these deputies on the charge of this kind well you might as well dispense with law
34:08altogether these men were merely carrying out their sworn duty Prentice was a fugitive
34:12judge Kirby himself signed the warrant well that's right you have no authority to hold them sheriff
34:20why any case against them would be thrown out of court well if you say so judge he certainly does
34:26say so open that cell and return that badges you know another mistake like this and you'll be left
34:32right out of office all right I guess I did overstep my bounds yes this ain't only blind in this town
34:38it's deep too somebody ought to run you out of this town take a chip from me you'd better not be seen
34:50hanging around town after dark huh but judge you mind telling me how that old geezer proceeded to
35:05make fools out of you out of Sloan's idea not mine Sloan what was he doing out there bringing that old
35:10guy up saying he was a witness against us and Sloan stepped in front of him and that bird grabbed his
35:14guns I don't sound like Sloan to me remember what I told you boss why don't you ask Julie what she
35:20meant how about that Julie did you tell Sloan it seemed like he was somebody else maybe but I didn't
35:27mean anything by it just what did you mean by it well he don't act natural for instance he never gave
35:33the Kirby Dame a tumble before now he's all over the place after her neglecting me anything else he
35:41didn't seem to know the way to his room in the hotel there's only one way we can be sure about all
35:46this this is where Sloan supposed to be hiding out there's no way of reaching him by phone or wire
35:57you'll have to take your car and get back as soon as possible oh Mac that's a long way get going
36:02Prentice has probably been picked up by now but we've got to find him get everybody together and
36:08start searching that means every ranch in the valley and keep looking until you find him
36:12that means you too
36:17hope that her is at that doctor
36:40you know George I've been doing a lot of thinking all the way up here we've got to start
36:52squaring things for Prentice I'm with you Bob and most of the other ranchers feel the same way about
36:57it the law doesn't seem to do anything about McCall and his gunman so we got to take things in our own
37:03hands I say we get the ranchers together and run McCall and his whole bunch out of town yes and while
37:08we're about it we'll get rid of judge Kirby the judge might have made a bad mistake but Anna's
37:13certainly innocent if you make a move against McCall she'll lose a ranch and everything she owned
37:17you're lying you're just stalling for time trying to save McCall's neck but it won't work time up
37:38for a good idea
37:45yeah
37:48yeah

48:52There's Sloan fighting beside McCall.
48:55They've got somebody cornered.
48:58This reminds me of the time Buffalo Bill was surrounded by...
49:14I was going to say, I hear this, my fellow, who was there.
49:44I'm not going to say, I hear this!
49:51I'm not going to say, I heard this!
49:57You're right!

50:14for
50:17for
50:31Wait a minute, Ann.

50:42You killed him?
50:44Nice shooting, mister.
50:45Thanks.
50:49Shucks.
50:50Anybody know Roy as well as I do
50:52wouldn't be fooled for a minute.
50:54I know who he was all the time.
50:58Gentlemen, this is one of the most difficult decisions
51:00I've ever been called upon to make.
51:02We need you here, Judge.
51:05And we want you to stay.
51:07We aren't overlooking the fact
51:08that with this one exception,
51:10you've made about the finest record
51:12of any judge this county has ever had.
51:14I'll back that up.
51:16Any man's entitled to make one mistake,
51:18and you made yours trying to protect Ann.
51:20I'm not blaming you.
51:22And I'm not a man to hold grudges.
51:24Every trail I ride with you
51:27is a blue sky avenue
51:30Faithful, pal, oh my
51:34By the campfire's fading light
51:39You're beside me through the night
51:42Faithful, pal, oh my
51:46The prairie moon that shines out yonder
51:51We'll ride our way wherever we roam
51:54After the rodeos are over
51:55I'm going to come back and try to talk you into
51:57a new Kirby and Rogers partnership
51:58Sounds like a good idea
52:00Till the last long trail we ride
52:03Out beyond the great divide
52:06We'll ride side by side
52:09Faithful, pal, oh my
52:12The prairie moon that shines out yonder
52:15We'll light our way wherever we roam
52:18No matter where we chance to wander
52:21It will be our home, sweet home
52:24Till the last long trail we ride
52:27Till the last long trail we ride
52:27Out beyond the great divide
52:30We'll ride side by side
52:34Faithful, pal, oh my
52:36The rather long trail we ride
52:52The End
