00:02:00Face the facts, Sigrid.
00:02:01You face them.
00:02:03I was the first settler here.
00:02:05I found a wilderness, opened it up for you and others like you.
00:02:08And I tell you again, nobody's making a reservation out of it.
00:02:12You can't stop it now, Sigrid.
00:02:13You never filed on the land.
00:02:15Land?
00:02:16Where would I file?
00:02:17In town?
00:02:19There was no town.
00:02:21I was busy.
00:02:22Building a home, raising a family.
00:02:25Fighting this land.
00:02:26And this is my land.
00:02:27I have a wife and two babies buried over that hill.
00:02:31So don't you ask me to face the facts.
00:02:34The Indians have wives and babies too.
00:02:36To argue with you is useless.
00:02:38The Indians must go, one way or another.
00:02:41What do you want me to do?
00:02:42Find a new wilderness?
00:02:43I want the land I settled on.
00:02:47No, Yota.
00:02:48Indian agent ask only we find out who poisoned our water.

00:23:54What do you want here?
00:23:56I have right to be here.
00:23:58What right?
00:23:59You do not know.
00:24:00I don't know what you mean, but I'm sure you can understand me.
00:24:03Get out of this house.
00:24:04Not before I see my father.
00:24:06Your what?
00:24:07My father.
00:24:08Your father?
00:24:09Thad?
00:24:10Don't.
00:24:12Shut your mouth.
00:24:13Where is he?
00:24:14On his deathbed, where you put him.
00:24:17He was man shot?
00:24:19You should know.
00:24:23Now, leave him alone.
00:24:27No, no!
00:24:46I did not know this.
00:24:59How can you say that?
00:25:00It's your work.
00:25:02My work.
00:25:03She can't even deny it.
00:25:04I do deny it.
00:25:06This not happened but for you and your sons, trying to poison all my people.
00:25:11You are lying.
00:25:12Will you go?
00:25:13Will you get out of this house?
00:25:15You may hate me.
00:25:17Order me out.
00:25:18But you cannot deny that we have seen father.
00:25:20What was that all about?
00:25:27Just some Indian lie.
00:25:28Some scheme to get out of any blame for Thad's death.
00:25:32I want you to forget it.
00:25:33Understand?
00:25:35Forget you ever saw her here.
00:25:37All of you.
00:25:42Eric.
00:25:42Eric.
00:25:42You following that girl?
00:25:56Girls are scarce around here.
00:25:58Half-breeds aren't.
00:26:00No son of mine be squaw, man.
00:26:02Go back inside.
00:26:04Now!
00:26:04Hey, Tiawani.
00:26:19Don't blame me for what my father does.
00:26:22I've seen you around town several times.
00:26:24I'd like to help you.
00:26:26Help me?
00:26:27What can you do?
00:26:28Whatever Thad could have done.
00:26:30You know, all that talk about Thad being your father
00:26:33isn't going to get you anything with him dead.
00:26:36Why don't you tell me what you really wanted from him?
00:26:39White man's help.
00:26:42Could be me.
00:26:44I do not think so.
00:26:45You are Swanson.
00:26:49Try me.
00:26:52My people need cattle.
00:26:54There's herd for sale outside town.
00:26:56I need $2,000.
00:26:59$2,000?
00:27:00That is why I came to my father.
00:27:03Drop that phony father talk.
00:27:04Don't blame me for stupid.
00:27:08Supposing...
00:27:09Just supposing I got you the money.
00:27:13How?
00:27:15Well, we're not exactly a poor family.
00:27:19What would I get for it?
00:27:22We are trying to buy cattle.
00:27:24What are you trying to buy?
00:27:25You want to borrow, don't you?
00:27:28And you have thought of how I pay back?
00:27:31Yeah.
00:27:35Why you not stay with Yellow Elk?
00:27:42This make more trouble.
00:27:44He touched you again.
00:27:46I'd kill him.
00:27:47Could you not do it this time?
00:27:56He only unconscious.
00:27:57I hear Thad Arnold man dead.
00:28:00When I shoot, I don't know he your father.
00:28:04Where you go?
00:28:05Indian agent.
00:28:06Maybe he talked to Garth to sell half his cattle to us.
00:28:09I stay here.
00:28:09No.
00:28:10You go back to reservation with Yellow Elk.
00:28:12Is this and her were just plain dumb,
00:28:28riding in like nothing happened last night?
00:28:30Well, Sheriff, you're going to let her get away with it,
00:28:32or can we take a pot shot at her?
00:28:33You men witness any wrongs she did,
00:28:35or have you just got big ears?
00:28:37Aren't you going to lock her up?
00:28:38That's the man next door.
00:28:42Purvis!
00:28:43Ed Purvis!
00:28:51Better get the girl out of town.
00:28:53The feeling around here is ugly against any Indian.
00:29:00Mr. Purvis, I need help.
00:29:02That's what I'm here for.
00:29:03Maybe you'd better come inside.
00:29:12Who runs this man's town?
00:29:19The Indian agent or the sheriff?
00:29:21Oh, ain't you heard?
00:29:22The Indians run it.
00:29:23They go around shooting people off of street corners,
00:29:25and they get a free cigar.
00:29:26You better make yourself scarce
00:29:28before I start a little shooting practice on my own.
00:29:34The whole town is upset after last night.
00:29:36Antagonizing them now will only make it worse.
00:29:40Worse?
00:29:41How can that be?
00:29:42Last time I come to town,
00:29:44they not sell me food.
00:29:46Have we no rights?
00:29:47Are not Indians human beings?
00:29:49Some whites don't think so.
00:29:52I had hoped maybe things would cool off,
00:29:54but shooting Thad Arnold wasn't the answer.
00:29:56We did only what you ask.
00:29:58Tried to find poisonous.
00:29:59With bullets?
00:30:01Besides, after my talk with Thad,
00:30:03I don't believe he poisoned the water.
00:30:04No.
00:30:06The Swansons.
00:30:07Well, they'll deny it.
00:30:08We see them.
00:30:10Maybe before the shooting,
00:30:11your word might have meant something.
00:30:13But not now.
00:30:19Revis.
00:30:20I want this squaw put in jail.
00:30:23We found Derek with his head half knocked off.
00:30:26She did it?
00:30:27Don't laugh.
00:30:29There is something else.
00:30:31Thad Arnold just died.
00:30:33Now, how about some action?
00:30:36Well, you have no proof that she shot him.
00:30:38She was there.
00:30:40At the water hole.
00:30:41So were you.
00:30:43Poisoning the water.
00:30:44Who says so?
00:30:45She does.
00:30:47You believe her?
00:30:47Well, of course.
00:30:49You saw her, she saw you.
00:30:51You just said she was there.
00:30:53And I just said that Thad Arnold is dead.
00:30:55Now, it's your job to turn this one over to the sheriff
00:31:00so she won't shoot anybody else
00:31:02or talk you out of money for the cattle.
00:31:04If you don't do this...
00:31:06What cattle?
00:31:06Eddick.
00:31:09There's a herd outside of town.
00:31:10She's got some wild idea about buying it.
00:31:13With what?
00:31:14That is why I come to you.
00:31:15I have only $2,000.
00:31:17$2,000?
00:31:19Where would Indians get such an amount of money
00:31:21unless they stole it before you brought them down here?
00:31:23That is not true.
00:31:25You know of money.
00:31:26Sometimes you bring to Yellow Elk.
00:31:29What does that mean?
00:31:31It's none of your business, Sigrod.
00:31:33But the money legitimately belongs to the girl.
00:31:36I thought if you talked to Cattleman
00:31:38to sell us half his herd, it would help.
00:31:41He refused me.
00:31:42Don't waste your time.
00:31:44That herd is halfway to Cheyenne by now.
00:31:46No, they're not far from here.
00:31:49Man promised to wait.
00:31:50We meet at Saloon for my answer.
00:31:52Please, Mr. Purvis, talk to him.
00:31:54I'll do what I can.
00:31:56You go along and hold him there.

00:32:04Wait a minute.

00:32:11Now, it's not me you're bucking.
00:32:13Washington will get all of this in my report,
00:32:15including the girl's accusation
00:32:16that you are the poisoner.
00:32:18Washington is too far away to run this town.
00:32:21But as long as you're riding,
00:32:23just add another line to your report.
00:32:26Tell the government to send a new man down here.

00:36:43Wait.
00:36:44All right.
00:36:45Let me go.
00:36:45Let me go.
00:36:49I'm through with him.
00:36:52Now you can run him out of town.
00:36:53For what?
00:36:56For Indian loving.
00:37:02Anybody here?
00:37:04Want to see the Indians buy cattle from this man?
00:37:06You want to see them take over our town?
00:37:10Make their own rules?
00:37:12Run it?
00:37:13The Indians are entitled to live.
00:37:15Not on my land.
00:37:17It isn't your land.
00:37:18It's government land.
00:37:19Well, a man in this town hasn't grazed his stock out there on what they call a reservation.
00:37:23Reserve for who?
00:37:25The Indian squatters?
00:37:27Should be reserved for the men that got here first.
00:37:29That's right.
00:37:30That's right.
00:37:32There's something else you people don't know.
00:37:36Thad Arnold died in my arms.
00:37:39Less than an hour ago.
00:37:41Murdered.
00:37:43Ambushed.
00:37:43I saw the Indians.
00:37:45I saw this half-breed brat leading them.
00:37:49And then running away after Thad was shot.
00:37:52Anybody who has talked with this one is no good.
00:37:56That's why I want this cowherder to run out of town.
00:37:58Now, anybody who wants to help Thad's killers is as guilty as they are.
00:38:06You want proof?
00:38:08Look at her.
00:38:09Look at him there.
00:38:10You didn't give him half enough, Sigrid.
00:38:12Real small, man, ain't he?
00:38:13Yeah, two of a kind.
00:38:15They'd look better riding on a rail.
00:38:17Yeah.
00:38:18She was in on the killing, all right.
00:38:20Maybe she's the one who fired the shot to kill Thad.
00:38:23You're talking too much.
00:38:25And you're doing too little.
00:38:26I'm not the Indian agent.
00:38:27Ed is.
00:38:28He won't do anything about this.
00:38:31Maybe you write another letter to Washington.
00:38:33I'll go out to the reservation.
00:38:34I'll find out the truth.
00:38:35Stay there.
00:38:36Why don't you?
00:38:37You're going out there to tell them what story to stick to?
00:38:40I wish I could tell them something that you people would stick to.
00:38:43I wish I could promise them something that you people in this town would keep.
00:38:46A chance to live in peace where your own government put them.
00:38:49Against their will.
00:38:50Well, if I could promise them that, maybe they'd turn over the real killer.
00:38:54Talk, talk, talk.
00:38:56We got the real killer right here.
00:38:58You call me white squaw.
00:38:59But when I hear you talk, I am sorry I am not all Indian.
00:39:02Listen to her.
00:39:04Listen to this scum.
00:39:08Get this man on a horse.
00:39:10Get him and the girl out of town.
00:39:11I'll get our horses.
00:39:12He hurt bad.
00:39:12I take him to a reservation.
00:39:14No.
00:39:14Got to get back to the herd.
00:39:16Tell the men what to do.
00:39:16We can do that later.
00:39:18This man's dead.
00:39:43It's Joe.
00:39:49Looks like every steer in Wyoming went through here.
00:39:55Stampede didn't put that bullet hole in his chest.
00:39:58Where is other man?
00:40:14That's Bill.
00:40:15It's a signal we use on the trail.
00:40:17Did you hit Farrell?
00:40:37No.
00:40:37My horse threw me.
00:40:38Where's Joe?
00:40:39He's over there.
00:40:39I was riding the herd on the far side.
00:40:42And Joe was off saddle making some coffee.
00:40:44I think there were three of those stampede's.
00:40:46Did you recognize any of them?
00:40:47No.
00:40:48They were too far away.
00:40:49They turned the cattle and ran them through camp.
00:40:52Yeah.
00:40:52I heard some shots.
00:40:54He shot Joe.
00:40:55Bad?
00:40:55He's dead.
00:40:56But his gun's empty.
00:40:58I'd be like Joe to go down shooting.
00:41:00I was just thinking him and I were going on a big drunk up in China.
00:41:06Is that all this man's death means to you?
00:41:08Well, I ain't crying about it.
00:41:10Besides, Joe's a lot better off than I am right now.
00:41:13Nobody's going to make me change my sentiments.
00:41:15How'd you get up here?
00:41:17I hadn't followed him a quarter of a mile when the horse threw me.
00:41:20By the time I got him back, the cattle were gone.
00:41:22Which way?
00:41:23West.
00:41:23They must be scattered for miles around the country.
00:41:25I'll go bring him back.
00:41:27You're too all in for a hard hunt like that.
00:41:29You come with me to reservation.
00:41:31When you feel better, my people help you.
00:41:34Yeah.
00:41:35I want to see that Joe gets buried proper.
00:41:38I can pay.
00:41:39We'll worry about the pay later.
00:41:41Pharaoh, pack Joe's body back to town.
00:41:43I'll see you later tonight.
00:41:45I'll be glad to.
00:41:45Put your horse in my corral and give him a rest.
00:41:48All right.
00:41:49You'll be sure you get back here in one piece, too.
00:41:51I will take good care of him.
00:41:53That's what I'm afraid of.
00:41:55You know, he's a very lonesome man.
00:41:59I'll be right back.
00:42:14I'll be right back.
00:42:25What is the matter? Where is cattle?
00:42:37Later, help him first. Sigrod did this.
00:42:40Take him to my teepee.
00:42:42Yellow elf.
00:42:44Yota, we want to talk to you.
00:42:53Bring hot water.
00:42:55I feel like a bronc stomped me.
00:43:06Sigrod had bad temper.
00:43:07Yeah.
00:43:09He really, really hates you people, doesn't he?
00:43:13I do not know what we do now.
00:43:17That, uh, that Sigrod was in the saloon, so he didn't steal my cattle.
00:43:24Farrow Bill say they're three Stampeders. Sigrod have three sons.
00:43:29Oh, that's worth following up.
00:43:33Clear me on something else.
00:43:35Did you shoot that Arnold fella?
00:43:39No.
00:43:40Everybody around here seems to think you did.
00:43:43You were there, though. You know who fired the shot?
00:43:46Yes, I know.
00:43:47That's what Purvis and the sheriff come up here to find out.
00:43:51I never tell who fired a shot. Never.
00:43:53I can swear I did not.
00:43:55I believe you.
00:43:56I look that funny?
00:44:11No.
00:44:12It is only you alone in teepee with Squaw that have much meaning.
00:44:16Ah.
00:44:17Glad fair old Bill isn't here.
00:44:19Lisa, you lonesome man.
00:44:25Would you not lose head over Squaw, hmm?
00:44:28I don't know.
00:44:29Never thought about it before. Maybe I should.
00:44:33You're very pretty.
00:44:35Very pretty Squaw.
00:44:38That not sound bad.
00:44:40What?
00:44:41When other men call me Squaw, it hurt deep.
00:44:49But when you say, very pretty Squaw, it sound nice.
00:44:55Well, you keep on hearing it nice.
00:45:01Well, did you get what you came for?
00:45:03Nobody knows anything.
00:45:04Nobody talks.
00:45:06Not even the O-Tar.
00:45:07I feel sure the shots weren't fired without his being around.
00:45:10Up against the stone wall, huh?
00:45:12Well, the Indians say Sigrod lies about poisoning the wells,
00:45:15and Sigrod says the Indians lie about killing Thad.
00:45:18I don't know who to believe.
00:45:20If you really want to be caught in the mill,
00:45:22try running an Indian reservation.
00:45:24I sure wouldn't want your job.
00:45:26Now, I'll be out here again tomorrow for another talk.
00:45:28And don't you go asking for trouble.
00:45:30And don't come into town again until I see you.
00:45:37He say, cattle gone.
00:45:40Far away.
00:45:41Yep.
00:45:42Cattle gone.
00:45:43We not get cattle.
00:45:44You give money back.
00:45:46That's fair enough.
00:45:47I couldn't charge for beef I didn't deliver.
00:45:52I...
00:45:52You put in wallet.
00:45:54I see you.
00:46:01Wallet's gone.
00:46:01I must have lost it in the fight.
00:46:04Or give to your man.
00:46:06I didn't give it to anybody.
00:46:07I know he have wallet in saloon.
00:46:09I better go back and see if I can find him.
00:46:11No.
00:46:13You wait here.
00:46:14To your man come back with cattle or money.
00:46:17I watch.
00:46:17You try, leave, I shoot.
00:46:19Yota.
00:46:20I'm sick of lies.
00:46:21Sick of old white men.
00:46:22I can't stay here.
00:46:27Now it's out of the question.
00:46:28With Yota, no sense to argue.
00:46:30His word being much law in camp.
00:46:32There is God now.
00:46:39You have your gun.
00:46:40You try to run away, you only get hurt more.
00:46:42But your money.
00:46:43I gotta get your money back.
00:46:45That...
00:46:45That bartender might have...
00:46:47If so, he still have it.
00:46:49Not have much time to spend.
00:46:50But...
00:46:51Please.
00:46:52Try not get it now.
00:46:53You wait till feel better.
00:46:56Yeah.
00:46:57I guess so.
00:46:59Well?
00:47:01But, uh...
00:47:02If I'm gonna stay, uh...
00:47:05I shouldn't be left alone.
00:47:08You are right.
00:47:12Nuava?
00:47:17Nuava, very fine nurse.
00:47:19But you...
00:47:19I come back soon.
00:47:20You be a good patient.
00:47:26Now, now, I'll wave.
00:47:28I haven't got a headache, and I'm not dying.
00:47:30All I need is some sleep.
00:47:31I put you to sleep.
00:47:33Now, I...
00:47:34I'll put you to sleep if you don't get out of this tent.
00:47:38Then stay out.
00:47:39I'll...
00:47:39I'll...
00:47:40Ha, ha, ha.
00:48:10Ha, ha, ha.
00:48:40Ha, ha, ha.
00:49:10One of the men on the herd. It was him and me.
00:49:13He knew you?
00:49:14He won't talk.
00:49:15Come inside. I want to talk about this.
00:49:18I want to talk about this.
00:49:48I want to talk about this.
00:50:18Why do you leave camp?
00:50:20My headband!
00:50:21You fool!
00:50:21Ha, ha, ha!
00:50:29Die here!
00:50:36Stay there.
00:50:38Don't move.
00:50:38I did not.
00:50:48He's dead. Eric's dead.
00:50:50Believe me, I did not.
00:50:52His gun is fired. Must have been someone else.
00:50:55There was no one else.
00:50:57There was no one else.
00:50:58Remember that.
00:50:59No one else.
00:51:01Thor, get the sheriff.
00:51:03Tell him we've got a killer.
00:51:05One that can be no argument about this time.
00:51:08Where are you, Lowell?
00:51:16Where are you, Lowell?
00:51:16In teepee.
00:51:17Talk white man.
00:51:22It's your one in town.
00:51:24In jail.
00:51:25What happened?
00:51:26Purvis told her to stay here.
00:51:28She go in town.
00:51:29I follow.
00:51:29I watch.
00:51:30She go in alley behind saloon.
00:51:32I hear scream.
00:51:33When I go in alley,
00:51:34she there and Sigrid's son Eric on ground, dead.
00:51:37You think she killed him?
00:51:39She only one there.
00:51:40Then Sigrid come.
00:51:42He sure she kill him.
00:51:43But how?
00:51:45She have no gun, no knife.
00:51:49Where's your knife?
00:51:51I lose.
00:51:52I ride fast.
00:51:54Come get old Indian.
00:51:55Go back.
00:51:56Get her.
00:51:56You can't fight the whole town.
00:51:58We killed many white men before.
00:52:00We do again.
00:52:01No, no.
00:52:01Make big mistake now.
00:52:03You better let me go talk to him.
00:52:04You no go.
00:52:05You stay.
00:52:06If you want to die,
00:52:07we kill you.
00:52:08That's plain stupid.
00:52:10You kill another white man,
00:52:11the whole town will be up here.
00:52:13He'll wipe out every Indian on this reservation.
00:52:15If Thad Arnold alive, he help.
00:52:17Thad Arnold, who's he?
00:52:19Fine white man.
00:52:21A Tawani father.
00:52:22Father?
00:52:23A Tawani mother.
00:52:25My sister.
00:52:27Die a long time back
00:52:28before we come here.
00:52:30Does the town know about it?
00:52:32A Tawani tell Kerry Arnold.
00:52:34Kerry Arnold,
00:52:35other daughter, Thad.
00:52:37Ah, what did she say?
00:52:39She very mad.
00:52:40Say all big lie.
00:52:43I think I'll talk to the sheriff
00:52:44and Purvis about this.
00:52:46They might have an idea.
00:52:47We keep secret long time,
00:52:50but no proof.
00:52:51Nothing?
00:52:53Some paper.
00:52:55No can read.
00:52:56Well, let me see it.
00:52:57It's a will.
00:53:18A copy of a will made by this man, Arnold.
00:53:20And he leaves half of everything he's got
00:53:22to a Tawani.
00:53:24This is a powerful piece of paper.
00:53:26Now we got something to fight with.
00:53:28You know, take.
00:53:29I'll need it in town.
00:53:31As a white squaw,
00:53:31she hasn't got a chance.
00:53:33But as Arnold's other daughter,
00:53:35they'll give it a second thought.
00:53:36Let him go.
00:53:40You show sheriff paper.
00:53:42Oh, and I'll have my gun back.
00:53:50There were three eyewitnesses,
00:53:52Sigrod and his two sons.
00:53:53They got there a minute after
00:53:54she put the knife on Eric's back.
00:53:56A minute after, huh?
00:53:58And nobody actually saw who did it.
00:54:00That's right, Gareth.
00:54:01It's circumstantial evidence.
00:54:03I'd like to talk to the girl,
00:54:04if I might.
00:54:05She hasn't said a word
00:54:06since we brought her in.
00:54:07Maybe you'd like to tell me
00:54:21what happened.
00:54:24Is that Yotar's knife out there
00:54:25on the sheriff's desk?
00:54:28It's not hard to read your face.
00:54:31Why are you taking the blame?
00:54:32They'll hang you.
00:54:34You don't owe Yotar your life.
00:54:36Speak up.
00:54:38Tell him what happened.
00:54:40Why talk?
00:54:41No one believed me.
00:54:43I believe you.
00:54:45I know.
00:54:47But you cannot help me now.
00:54:49This can help.
00:54:51It's Thad Arnold's will,
00:54:53leaving you half of everything he owned.
00:54:55It's a copy, but it's good.
00:54:57I'll get Miss Carrie to hunt
00:54:58for the original.
00:55:00She can't refuse to help her own sister.
00:55:02She refused.
00:55:03She fight it.
00:55:04Then we fight her.
00:55:06I've only known you one day.
00:55:10No one ever kinder to me.
00:55:13Well, maybe I'm like an old steer
00:55:15that run the brush all his life
00:55:17and nobody ever threw a rope on him before.
00:55:30Like I told you, there's his horse.
00:55:32I saw him go inside.
00:55:33What'd he be doing calling on Carrie?
00:55:35Maybe she's playing both ends against the middle.
00:55:37We find out pretty quick.
00:55:39I can't imagine why you thought
00:55:40it would make me help a murderess.
00:55:42It's fantastic.
00:55:43It's nothing but a forgery.
00:55:45I don't think so, Miss Arnold.
00:55:46I think it's about the most important piece of paper
00:55:48in town right now.
00:55:49And I'm giving it to the Indian agent
00:55:51to put in his safe until a trial.
00:55:53What were you doing in there?
00:56:07Ask Miss Carrie.
00:56:09Maybe you come back for another ripping, huh?
00:56:12Looks like you figure it'll be a little harder this time.
00:56:14I'll whip you again, Garth.
00:56:18Alone.
00:56:19It'll be plenty soon
00:56:20if you don't leave this town.
00:56:23I'll be around.
00:56:30You wait here.
00:56:31What did he want?
00:56:46We've got to do something.
00:56:48Garth has a duplicate will.
00:56:49If it's recognized,
00:56:50then that girl goes free.
00:56:52We'll never get the Indians out of here
00:56:53if they get half of your property.
00:56:55They'll have cattle, money.
00:56:57The will had Dad's signature on it.
00:57:00Garth said he was going to put it
00:57:01in the agent's safe.
00:57:04Then we must get that will.
00:57:07There's a way.
00:57:10Dad was blasting stumps
00:57:11out of the creek bottom last month.
00:57:13Some of the dynamite's still in the shed out back.
00:57:17Let's go get it.
00:57:20Purvis's office is locked.
00:57:21Where is he?
00:57:22Inside, lifting a beer.
00:57:24Huh?
00:57:25Fine.
00:57:26Maybe I can kill two birds with one stone.
00:57:29Huh?
00:57:36Mr. Purvis,
00:57:37will you put this in your safe?
00:57:39It's a will.
00:57:40A will?
00:57:41Yours?
00:57:43No, it's Thad Arnold's will.
00:57:44It proves the Indian girl's his daughter.
00:57:47Thad's daughter?
00:57:48Why, the old son of a gun.
00:57:49So that was it.
00:57:51I should have guessed it was he
00:57:52who was sending that money to Yellow Elk.
00:57:54And, uh, now there's another matter, Sheriff.
00:57:58Suppose you had a poke full of money
00:58:00and, uh, you got in a ruckus
00:58:01and some snake lifted your roll.
00:58:04What would you do?
00:58:05I'd throw him in jail.
00:58:07Well, suppose you couldn't prove it.
00:58:08Well, in that case, there's always a back alley.
00:58:11Sheriff, you mean you'd beat it out of him?
00:58:14Why not?
00:58:14He deserves it, cheating me like that.
00:58:17Why, if it was my best friend, I'd knock you...
00:58:18Thanks, Sheriff.
00:58:19Now, hands off.
00:58:21What'd you do with that $2,000
00:58:22the Indians give me for my cattle?
00:58:24What $2,000?
00:58:24Wait a minute, you didn't mean him.
00:58:26Some snake stole my money
00:58:27and I'm just following yours.
00:58:28Yeah, but I didn't mean...
00:58:29Yes, you did,
00:58:30and you gave him the prescription.
00:58:31Now, wait a minute.
00:58:32I didn't see your old wallet.
00:58:33My wallet?
00:58:35Well, I didn't say anything about a wallet,
00:58:37but the money was in a wallet.
00:58:39Now, hand it over!
00:58:45It's working.
00:58:46The supposing Garth is losing.
00:58:53Somebody's getting killed.
00:58:56What's one sadly damaged bartender
00:58:58against uncovering a snake in this town?
00:59:02All right.
00:59:03If you don't care anything about the bartender,
00:59:05you think all the good whiskey would lose him.
00:59:09I can't stand it.
00:59:11Neither can I.
00:59:13Let's look.
00:59:13You don't deserve such a beautiful death.
00:59:29And they were so your money.
00:59:31I don't know where...
00:59:32Where is he?
00:59:46Didn't have a name on it.
00:59:47I just found it.
00:59:48How's a man supposed to know?
00:59:50When I dropped out of my pocket back here
00:59:52during the fight,
00:59:53you knew whose it was.
00:59:54Sounds like somebody's blowing up your town.
01:00:00Enough, son!
01:00:01You only got a couple of minutes!
01:00:03Sam, where'd it come from?
01:00:04I don't know exactly.
01:00:05It sounds like down that way somewhere.
01:00:07Hurry.
01:00:08They're out looking around,
01:00:09starting to come this way.
01:00:10Door's jammed!
01:00:11It's stuck!
01:00:11Harrison and the sheriff,
01:00:40they're headed this way.
01:00:42Never mind the will of the safety.
01:00:44We got something better.
01:00:45Come on!
01:00:45Girl, it's gone!
01:00:50Girl, it's gone!
01:00:55Where is she?
01:01:04Where is she?
01:01:07Where's the girl?
01:01:08Try to yourself.
01:01:21These maniacs always running packs.
01:01:23Secret must have her.
01:01:25Let's get the horses.
01:01:26Take care of him.
01:01:31The horse is at the saloon.
01:01:32I'll catch up with you.
01:01:33Come on, I'll catch up with you.
01:01:33Come on.
01:01:34I'll catch up with you.
01:01:35Let's go.
01:02:05The whole town's out in the street, and you're standing here in the parlor.
01:02:08Why shouldn't I?
01:02:09Because you're the only one I told about putting that will in the Indian agent's safe.
01:02:13Well, the dynamite didn't wreck it.
01:02:14Sigrod didn't get the will, but he did get your sister, and he's liable to try and kill her.
01:02:17I don't know anything about it.
01:02:19Plain words, I think you're lying.
01:02:20Where's Sigrod taking her?
01:02:21I don't know.
01:02:22Well, we're going to find out.
01:02:23You're in on this, Miss Aronor, and we're going to see how it finishes.
01:02:32Get up there and ride straight for Sigrod's.
01:02:34And no tricks.
01:02:54Get in there!
01:02:56What are you going to do?
01:02:57She murdered Eric and Dad.
01:02:59She's the cause of everything.
01:03:02I'm putting an end to it.
01:03:04Right here.
01:03:05Right now.
01:03:06Stop it, Dad.
01:03:07You'll be doing the same thing.
01:03:10Now.
01:03:14Get out of here.
01:03:15Get away.
01:03:15You fool!
01:03:30You fool!
01:03:38You fool!
01:03:38Let's go.
01:04:08We've got to stop Sigratt, he's after the girl.
01:04:22He's crazy, he'll kill her.
01:04:25She'd only head for one place.
01:04:38Let's go.
01:05:08Let's go.
01:05:38Get out, my lad, get out.
01:05:43Get out, my lad.
01:05:45Get out.
01:05:46Get out.
01:05:48Get out, my lad.
01:05:50All of you, go.
01:05:54Get out.
01:05:56Go.
01:05:57Go.
01:05:59Get out.
01:06:01Get out of my lad.
01:06:02Get out.
01:06:03Get out.
01:06:05How are you?
01:06:07Get out.
01:06:08Get out.
01:06:09Get out.
01:06:10Get out.
01:06:11Get out.
01:06:12Get out.
01:06:13Get out.
01:06:14Get out.
01:06:15Get out.
01:06:16Get out.
01:06:17Get out.
01:06:18Get out.
01:06:19Get out.
01:06:20Get out.
01:06:21Get out.
01:06:22Get out.
01:06:23Get out.
01:06:24Get out.
01:06:25Get out.
01:06:26Get out.
01:06:27Get out.
01:06:28Get out.
01:06:29Get out.
01:06:30Get out.
01:06:31Get out.
01:06:32Get out.
01:06:33Get out.
01:06:34Get out.
01:06:35Get out.
01:06:36Get out.
01:06:45Scar!
01:06:46Fight, Scar!
01:06:50Not him.
01:06:51Scar!
01:06:52Fight, Scar!
01:06:53Sandal, save yourself.
01:07:06Where's the girl?
01:07:16In there.
01:07:18The cigarette tried to kill.
01:07:36You go, uncle are you.
01:07:45Now I see the show.
01:07:49I'll finish you now.
01:07:52I'll finish you now.
01:08:06I'll finish you now.
01:08:21Come on!
01:08:23Sigma!
01:08:25Sigma!
01:08:27Sigma!
01:08:29Rise!
01:08:31Rise!
01:08:36We'll get you out of here.
01:08:56No.
01:08:58Too late.
01:09:01I tell the truth now.
01:09:05I...
01:09:06I kill Fat Arnold.
01:09:09I...
01:09:10kill Eric, too.
01:09:12It...
01:09:15It...
01:09:16It...
01:09:17It...
01:09:18It...
01:09:19It...
01:09:20It...
01:09:21It...
01:09:22It...
01:09:23Let's get him out of here.
01:09:25It...
01:09:26It...
01:09:39It...
01:09:40Yotar's dead.
01:09:56Better confess to both killings.
01:09:58Sigrid ran into the fire.
01:10:00We couldn't stop him.
01:10:01Sigrid, bad man.
01:10:03Glad he burned.
01:10:04I can't blame you for that feeling,
01:10:06but we try not to judge the other fellow.
01:10:08Aye, not that good.
01:10:09I am still Sioux Indian.
01:10:11Glad he gone.
01:10:12I've helped cause this.
01:10:14I don't know how I can ever make it up.
01:10:16You can start by admitting that she's your sister.
01:10:18Yes, that's true.
01:10:20You won't even need her, Will.
01:10:21Half of whatever dad left is yours.
01:10:25It means much to my people.
01:10:27I can buy cattle for them now.
01:10:29Cattle already moving here.
01:10:31I sent men help Pharaoh Bill bring in herd.
01:10:34Bob, you go help them.
01:10:36Sheriff and I'll stay here.
01:10:37Bob, I go with you.
01:10:45It's symbolic in a way.
01:10:47Burning Sigrid's hate out of this valley.
01:10:50We'll help you to build a new village,
01:10:52Yellow Elk, one that can live in peace.
01:10:54Those cattle remind you of that old steer I was telling you about?
01:11:20Steer off and stray away.
01:11:24Ah, not this one.
01:11:26That rope's right over my horns.
01:11:29Let us make it strong enough to hold,
01:11:32not tight enough to hurt.
01:11:33Fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire
