00:00Mr. You killed nine men.
00:18I never heard anyone say you made allowances for your opponent's ability with a gun.
00:30I never heard anyone say you made allowances for your opponent's ability to do your opponent's ability.
00:52Thank you, hey, boy.
01:05Excuse me.
01:06You see most everybody that comes into this hotel lobby, don't you?
01:09Yes, sir.
01:11Take a good look at that picture.
01:15If you see this man, would you please contact me?
01:18My name's Alcorn, room 12.
01:21The reward would be yours.
01:23Yes, sir.
01:24I'll even add a little extra.
01:26I got money enough to take good care of you.
01:28Do you now?
01:29Excuse me, hey, boy.
01:31Beg your pardon?
01:33Well, that's Manfred Holt.
01:34Killed nine men, condemned last week in Laramie.
01:37Escaped from prison, killing two guards in the process, according to the papers.
01:40And I'll be the next.
01:42I was the chief witness at his trial.
01:45He swore to get me, and I ran.
01:47Well, it took some courage to even testify against a man like that.
01:50Oh, I was scared.
01:50But I owed it to my neighbors to speak up.
01:54He'll make me pay for that now.
01:56He could be caught.
01:58No one will ever catch him in the Black Mountains.
02:00Sheriff Ludlow's chasing him up there, for all the good it'll do.
02:04This makes the fourth time Holt's got away from him.
02:08Ludlow's not too smart.
02:10Mr. Alcorn, I'm not a bounty hunter, but I am available for a fee.
02:13What do you do?
02:16My card.
02:17My card.
02:17Oh, my God.
02:29Well, Mr. Alcorn is too smart.
02:36It's Manfred Holtz you got bottled up in there, isn't it?
03:00Where'd you come from?
03:02San Francisco.
03:03You're Jake Ludlow, the sheriff.
03:05How do you know this?
03:06A man named Alcorn, a friend of yours, wants me to see that Holtz returned to Laramie.
03:11I was on my way to his wife's cabin just now.
03:13So was he.
03:15Well, we caught up with him.
03:16See if you can see.
03:18He alone?
03:19He's got a saddle horse and a pack horse.
03:22Well, apparently you don't need any help from me.
03:26Unless you want to speed things up a little and dig a grave.
03:29Holtz might surrender.
03:32You don't think I'm going to spend two weeks on the road to Laramie with Holtz?
03:35He's already killed two of my deputies.
03:38And outsmarted you a few times.
03:40Understood the court settled his fate.
03:41He's to hang.
03:43Hang later.
03:44Shoot now.
03:44What's the difference?
03:46That's an interesting question, Sheriff.
03:48What is the difference between murder and justice?
03:50Get that horse!
04:02Knock him down!
04:12Too late, Jake.
04:13That horse was racing.
04:14Who are you, mister?
04:18My name's Paladin.
04:19He may still be in there, Sheriff.
04:21Or maybe he's under the packs on that other horse.
04:27Close in.
04:27Looks like he got away from you again.
04:48Read it, Abe.
04:49Here's his shells.
04:58This is where he was firing from.
05:09Then he came over to here where his horses were, and he got on one.
05:12No more footprints.
05:17And the horse he got on went like so.
05:23The pack horse.
05:25He hid under the canvas.
05:27Holt will go to see his kid like he promised.
05:29We can ride for the cabin.
05:32Gage, you and Al ride the cabin.
05:34Abe, you and Fuzz follow the trail.
05:36Mister, you're on your own.
05:41If you cross Holt's trail, stay away from him.
06:08I know 11 men that have tried to outdraw him, and they're wearing marble hats.
06:14Well, bear it in mind.
06:15Good hunting.
06:16Hey.
06:16Have a great day.
06:17Thanks, sir.
06:19Hey.
06:21Hey.
06:23Hey.
06:23Hey.
06:24Hey, come on.
06:25Hey.
06:38Hey.
06:39Hey.
06:40Hey.
06:42Hey.
06:42Hey.
06:43Hey.
06:44Hey.
06:44Hey.
06:46Hey.
06:46Put your hands on that horn, Holt.
06:51That's not what I told you to do.
06:54Then you should have pulled that trigger.
06:56That may come.
06:58I'll take the gun.
07:01Ain't I the hard luck fellow, though?
07:04Here all the time I thought...
07:06Stagecoat ship.
07:07A very graceful maneuver and one I know well.
07:09Stagecoat ship.
07:11Never saw it before, huh?
07:16Live and learn.
07:18How did you know I was here?
07:20That branch I picked up under the tree was fresh wet with sap.
07:23You broke it off while you were climbing the tree.
07:25You rode the pack horse under the branch,
07:27swung up without your feet touching the ground again.
07:30How did you get that pack horse to keep running?
07:32Put a burr under the saddle?
07:34No, it was a sharp rock.
07:36I sure hated to do it to old Jenny,
07:38but she'll keep running until she shakes that rock loose.
07:40I guess.
07:42So you knew all the time, huh?
07:44How come you didn't tell Jake?
07:46He'd have killed you.
07:48And you?
07:49I'm taking you back to Laramie.
07:51To be hung at a county fair while they hawked buttons off my shirt.
07:54Thanks.
07:56Step up on the horse.
07:58A man ought to be let to die like a man.
08:01At the hands of a man.
08:03What are you messing into this for anyhow?
08:08Alcorn hired me to see you don't reach him.
08:12You mean you hired your gun to that quivering tub of gully mud?
08:17A man can't even fight his own fight.
08:21Against you?
08:22Look, I ought to see him that he had a gun.
08:24I never yet shot a man, but he wasn't holding the gun and was facing me.
08:27You just ask around about Manfred Holt.
08:30I never heard anybody say you took into account the ability of your opponents with a gun.
08:34Or lack of ability.
08:35A man can't handle a gun.
08:36He ain't got no business west of the Mississippi.
08:38Oh.
08:39Let's go.
08:41Uh, wait a minute.
08:44You know, we've got two weeks on the trail to Laramie.
08:47And I figure to give you some trouble in that time.
08:50I'll be looking for it.
08:51Well, maybe you'll catch it, maybe you won't.
08:53Now, about a half a day's ride from here is my in-law's cabin.
08:58My wife and my boy are there.
09:01I've got a present to give my boy.
09:05And if I take you to that cabin?
09:07I'll go along with you quiet.
09:09No trouble.
09:10Now, I give you my word.
09:14Look, mister, I'm not begging you.
09:17I'm offering my word.
09:19Since you heard the rest about me, maybe you heard too that my word is good.
09:23I heard.
09:25The sheriff will be waiting at that cabin.
09:27Yeah, and I guess Abe will be catching up with Jenny about now.
09:31He'll be trailing along behind.
09:34But I mean to give my boy that present.
09:37He's only been around about three weeks.
09:41You've never seen your boy?
09:43No.
09:45Well, you ought to see him before you go to Laramie.
09:48And I give you my word you will.
09:51Lead the way.
09:57Oh, ain't this the pretty country, though?
10:11You know, Wyoming territory has every other place beat.
10:15Oh, Paladin, you ought to be ashamed of yourself turning your back like that.
10:31You tempt a man.
10:33I've got your word.
10:34Well, I've been knowing the lie.
10:36Take a look.
10:40Oh, that Abe.
10:42He's more bloodhound than he is man.
10:44You could take off in a cloud and he'd follow your trike.
10:47Well, triking, they'll move more slowly than we will.
10:50Hey, I know a tricky piece of trail that will save us some time right up over there.
10:58It'll boggle Abe a piece, too.
11:00You better lead us to it if we're going to see that boy of yours.
11:03What are you calling him, by the way?
11:05Well, that's another thing.
11:07There's Pa's figuring on naming him Hubert.
11:11Hubert Hope.
11:12Now, I ask you.
11:13Hubert's a fine old name.
11:15Means bright mind.
11:16Good name for a scholar.
11:18My boy ain't going to be no scholar.
11:20He's going to be a man.
11:22I'll set him off on the right foot when we get there and I give him his present.
11:25Yeah, I'm sure you will, Hubert.
11:27Hey, uh, my front name's Manfred, you know.
11:32Manfred.
11:38Then when I got married, Sarah fixed us up with this here bed in her folks' place.
11:43Oh, yes, Sarah.
11:46Sarah sure changed my ways.
11:49Manfred, it's too bad she didn't change her ways with a gun.
11:51You might have spent more time with her.
11:53Yeah, there's no denying it.
11:55Still, a man has to be what he is.
11:58You know, I don't like someone.
12:00I just reach for a gun.
12:01Just about as natural as you'd reach the scratch in itch.
12:04Well, you can let off a lot of steam just using your fists.
12:07Oh, I'm no good with my fists.
12:10I'm good with a gun.
12:12What's the sense to fighting the way you're going to get licked?
12:15Well, unfortunately, you can't be allowed to go around killing everybody you don't like.
12:20Yeah, it does sound like I got me some bad habits.
12:23Still, it just don't seem right to hold a carnival and string me up.
12:29But now that I've got me a son, can't you just see him running around saying,
12:33my pa, he was hung?
12:35No, no, I can't.
12:40But Manfred, the way a man dies is less important than the way he lives.
12:47Oh, I figured it would be my finish if he remembered most.
12:51You know, if my boy could say, my pa, he stood up in a gunfight
12:56and was shot down like a man working a gun.
12:59Well, now that's something else again.
13:02It's coming on a rope.
13:30Well at this time, let's go ahead, Pat.
13:32Here we go.
13:33Now I need to go, so that's what we need to do when I'm coming to hang.
13:38Go ahead, Pat.
13:42This If anything against the ra�
13:43you deserve to hang, you deserve to hang.
13:48Not that you got enough guys.
13:49Well?
13:50Well you see how it is.
13:52Do you know what I've got to do?
13:54I can't get out of here without help.
13:58Paladin, I'm sorry.
14:04So long.
14:07Manfred!
14:09I thought you never killed anybody except for the gun!
14:16Manfred!
14:29Paladin!
14:31Here, take hold!
14:38Come on up!
14:58Thanks.
15:02No thanks called for.
15:05You didn't turn me into Jake Ludlow when you could've.
15:08So, I owe you my life there.
15:11And you wouldn't have been down there if you hadn't gone off your trail so I could see my son.
15:15Now the way I see it, now we're quits.
15:18All right, neither of us owes the other one anything.
15:21You're dang right!
15:23And our deal's off, and I'll break away if I can!
15:25Fair enough.
15:29All the same, that was a friendly gesture.
15:39Ah, forget it!
15:55Captain's right up around the bend there.
15:57I figured we'd better go in on foot for me.
16:14That's nice, Sarah.
16:15Easy.
16:16Sheriff will be in that cabin.
16:18Where will the horses be?
16:19On the other side.
16:24Well, now.
16:25Listen.
16:27That's my son.
16:29Paladin, I gotta get in that cabin.
16:31You will.
16:32Get me a pebble.
16:33What are you figuring on doing?
16:34Stay out of sight until Ledlow and his men ride out.
16:38What are you figuring on doing?
16:39Stay out of sight until Ledlow and his men ride out.
16:41All right, man.
16:42All right, man.
16:43Right out.
16:44All right, man.
16:45All right, man.
16:46Right out.
16:47Two minutes.
16:48All right.
16:49I'll go.
16:50All right, man.
16:51Yeah, I'll go.
16:52All right.
16:53All right, man.
16:54Well, all right.
16:55All right.
16:56All right.
16:57What are you doing here?
17:24Sheriff, I came looking for you, Abe.
17:25And that other man ran into Holt back in that clearing
17:27where you had him trapped.
17:29Did they get him?
17:30No, sir, they didn't.
17:31Abe and Fuzz dead?
17:33Well, sir, they could still talk when I left them,
17:35but it wouldn't do any harm to get a doctor to them right away.
17:37Pretty bad, huh?
17:39Well, there wasn't anything I could do for them.
17:41Gage, you'll get the horses.
17:41Not me.
17:42I ain't going nowhere.
17:43I'm not alone.
17:44Not with Holt out there someplace.
17:45All right, get the horses.
17:46All three of us will go.
17:47Lame horse, huh?
17:57Yeah, something happened to him just as I neared the cabin.
18:00How do you expect to ride with us?
18:02Well, Sheriff, I guess I'm just stuck here.
18:05You have to take care of your men, don't you?
18:07Sure.
18:09I guess you better hide in the rocks till we get back.
18:12And if you can get in back a hole, use your gun.
18:15Yes, sir.
18:39That must have been some whopper you told Ludlow.
19:02I didn't tell him anything but the truth.
19:04He filled in the spaces himself.
19:06I guess we've come to the point where we can stop counting what we owe each other.
19:11As you said before, Manfred, we're even.
19:14And we always will be.
19:28How are you, Sarah?
19:31Hey, what's this I hear you've been breeding boy children?
19:34Manfred.
19:35Manfred.
19:36Manfred.
19:37Manfred.
19:38Manfred.
19:39Manfred.
19:40Oh, don't carry on so.
19:41You know that I'd be along.
19:42Oh, yes.
19:43I knew.
19:44Oh.
19:45I brought a friend.
19:46How do you do, Miss Holt?
19:47Won't you come in?
19:48Oh, thank you.
19:49I'd better take care of my horse.
19:50Okay.
19:51Yeah, time's wasted.
19:53Well, come on.
19:54Show me what you've been up to.
19:55Oh, look.
19:57I'd better take care of my horse.
19:58Okay.
19:59Yeah, time's wasted.
20:00Well, come on.
20:01Show me what you've been up to.
20:02Oh, look.
20:03Thanks.
20:04Show me what you've been up to.
20:05Show me what you've been up to.
20:06Oh, look.
20:07Thanks.
20:08Hey.
20:09Have a cigar.
20:10I've got me a son.
20:12Yes.
20:15No, no...
20:16Who's right?
20:19I've got me a son.
20:24Oh, no, no...
20:25That's all.
20:26Oh, no.
20:27Oh, no.
20:28Oh.
20:29Oh, no.
20:30Oh, no, no...
20:31Oh, no.
20:32Oh, hello, I have a cigar.
20:33Oh, my God.
20:34Oh, my God.
20:35Oh, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
20:37Thank you. I'll smoke it later. How is Hubert?
20:41Hubert who? I told you I had a present for my boy
20:47Manfred Hulk, Jr. I give him my name. Yeah, sir, it's pawing in a hole with that no more
20:55I see you picked up a present for yourself
20:57Oh
21:01Mean the gun
21:04Man like me just don't feel right and with you as one
21:09What's yours gonna be here any minute we better move
21:18Paladin
21:20I'm not going back to line me with you
21:22I wish you would not for that crowd waiting in Laramie
21:29What about Ned Alcorn he hired me to see that you don't kill him. What about that?
21:34Oh, I just wouldn't feel right now and he was walking over the same earth. I am
21:39I'd see that he had a gun. We talked about that Manfred. He's not very good with a gun
21:44That's too bad. I'll let you go. There'll be other men and some of them pretty helpless
21:49And you won't like them and you'll have to kill them
21:53And just has to be what he is
21:56Guess that holds for you, too
21:58That's right
22:00Shall we move away from the house?
22:02They've been told not to come out no matter what they won't
22:06All right, then here
22:09Oh, and Paladin
22:13Don't try anything fancy like winging the shoulder or the lake
22:16You know a man like me we the killer he kills you
22:19I know
22:23That pump when the next drop of water falls
22:49Manfred I'm sorry
23:00Manfred I'm sorry
23:08Say I never ask you
23:10Manfred
23:12What does Manfred stand for?
23:16It's an old German name
23:18It means
23:20Man of peace
23:22Man of peace
23:26Man of peace?
23:31Buddy
23:32What do you know?
23:33What do you know?
23:34He wouldn't let me avoid it
23:36He wouldn't let me avoid it
23:40He wouldn't let me avoid it
23:44He was bound to come
23:46We've always known that
23:48He shared his life only with the men he respected
23:52But so it is with his death
23:54Oh, Wilmo
23:56Ah
23:58He was bound to come
24:00He was bound to come
24:01We've always known that
24:02He was bound to come
24:03We've always known that
24:08He shared his life only with the men he respected
24:10But so it is with his death
24:24You're under arrest mister
24:27Shricking me into leaving
24:28So you could sneak Holt back
24:32You hear me?
24:33Now get it Jake
24:34After all he did kill Holt didn't he?
24:36Matter of fact mister you've got the reward money coming to you
24:48Maybe so that reward money will find its way back here one day
24:53You let it be that way
