00:00The End
00:31The End
01:12Well, there she is, Sandy. The great city of Verdeen.
01:16Yep.
01:21Right where they said she'd be.
01:23It looks peaceful enough.
01:25Yeah. Like the crust on a gooseberry pot.
01:28All the pains and aches are underneath.
01:31We've got to cut into that pie, Sandy, and see how she tastes.
01:34I know already.
01:36You know, there's a lot of peculiar things going on in Washington.
01:39The man ain't crazy.
01:40And he ain't sending two of his best United States marshals out here to eat cake either.
01:45Right you are, son.
01:47Well, Sandy, how's your appetite for gooseberry pie?
01:51Oh, I think it'll set with me all right.
01:53We've got a split going into town.
01:56Trying to be strangers for a spell.
01:58Same old system, huh?
02:00Same old system.
02:01All right. Lead off, Sandy.
02:03Check.
02:04Check.
02:09Oh.
02:26Come on, believe me.
02:26Bye.
02:28Bye.
02:58Let's go.
03:22Let's go.
03:27They shot Mr. Devers and got all the money in his cage and mine too.
03:30This is the third time my bank has been robbed this year.
03:33Hey, that fellow shot one of the bandits. I saw him do it.
03:42Anybody know this man?
03:43No. He cut down on the sheriff just before this man got him.
03:47Well, I was just coming into town and I seen this pistol ruckus going on.
03:52So I pointed in his general direction and pulled the trigger.
03:56He was sure unlucky, weren't he?
03:59Of course, I generally missed.
04:01Well, I don't care how it happened. You did a good job.
04:05My name is Bradford. I'm the banker.
04:08Candy. Candy Hopkins.
04:10I'm sort of a...
04:16...bootmaker and cobbler and so forth.
04:18Now you settle here and you call on me for anything you need, Hopkins.
04:23Mr. Bradford, what do you think we'd better do with this man?
04:27We'll take him over to the sheriff's office and see if anyone will recognize him.
04:38My name's Pop Haines.
04:40I didn't know you, Pop.
04:42You're coming along and makes a double good.
04:44Yeah? How's that?
04:45We need a bootmaker.
04:48Well, this town don't look hardly big enough to support two.
04:52Oh, that?
04:54Well, it used to be.
04:55That old man Lasswell's been dead more than six months now.
04:58You tell.
05:00Well, you know, I might bring my stuff along and look around and then open up after a while.
05:05Oh, all these things in there?
05:07No.
05:08Yes!
05:09Here.
05:11Come on. I'll show you.
05:13Well, wait.
05:13No, no. Come right along.
05:16Well, here we are.
05:18Wanted to tell you, everything's here.
05:21Kind of messy, ain't it?
05:23Well, yes, a little.
05:24See, folks had to fix their own boots.
05:27Yeah?
05:28By the way, what old man Lasswell die of?
05:30Well, some might tell you that he died when he fixed the old Cactus Pete's boots the tight the piece.
05:36Some might tell me that, then.
05:38Don't pay no mind to it, though.
05:40Just gossip.
05:41Just gossip?
05:42Just gossip.
05:43Yeah.
05:44But he was shot, wasn't he?
05:45Oh, yes, yes, yes.
05:47He was shot, all right.
05:49Well, tell me.
05:50Who was the fellow that shot him?
05:51Well, he was the fellow...
05:53What's the matter?
05:54What's the matter?
05:55Hey, your foot, your foot.
05:57Where?
06:01Well, isn't you very hard?
06:03No, no, no.
06:03Just nip me a little.
06:05Just kind of surprised me.
06:08You're full of jokes, ain't you?
06:10Well, after a fashion.
06:12Well, I got to be going.
06:14I'll see you later.
06:42Well, what luck did you have?
06:43Pretty good.
06:44I trailed the boys up to their hideout
06:46in a place called Bear Paw Draw.
06:48I wrote in to tell you,
06:49if you miss me for a few days,
06:50that's where I'll be.
06:51Uh-huh.
06:52No, I think I'll go along with you.
06:54Oh, you better stay here
06:54and keep an eye on the town.
06:56Well, you know,
06:57I'm practically a businessman there now.
07:00I up and shot one of them bank robbers
07:03down if they didn't give me a present for it.
07:05Say, that might make it easier for us.
07:07You know, robbing that bank three times in a row
07:09might be just an accident.
07:11But holding up that stagecoach
07:13every time it had a shipment of gold on it,
07:15that's no accident.
07:16Now, that's just what I say.
07:18I think that gang's got a foreman around you.
07:21Well, if I find out anything,
07:22I'll let you know.
07:23Well,
07:25all right.
07:27Nevada,
07:28did you ever pick your own boots?
07:31No, sir.
07:32I'll leave that for an expert.
07:33And it's got to be fixed just right
07:35or I get popping mad.
07:37Uh-huh.
07:37Uh-huh.
07:38Well, I guess everybody feels just about the same.
07:41Yes, I guess so.
07:43You know,
07:43I think I'll come up there with you
07:45where it's, uh,
07:46quiet and peaceful like.
07:48That is,
07:48if it gets too dangerous for me in town.
07:51Dangerous?
07:51What the Sam Hill are you talking about?
07:53Well,
07:55you know,
07:55it's doggone it
07:56if he didn't give me a whole boot shop.
07:58What do you know about fixing boots?
08:00Not a darn thing.
08:02And that's what I'm scared about.
08:04Well,
08:04you better kind of take it easy, like.
08:06All right.
08:33All right.
08:37All right.
09:32No sign of red?
09:33I guess not.
09:34If he was coming,
09:34he'd be here by now.
10:02Something must have happened in town.
10:33Where's Gus?
10:33You'll never make a move like that
10:34unless you can do it faster.
10:35You might get yourself killed.
10:40That's better.
10:41Don't we forget about the fireworks.
10:43We're going to talk this over a peaceful life.
10:57help yourself.
11:00This is not a bad setup.
11:02Who's your boss?
11:03He ain't here.
11:04And you'd better hit the trail before he is.
11:07And you'd better hit the trail before he is.
11:07Oh, I guess I'll wait.
11:08That's your funeral.
11:10Where'd you come from?
11:11That ain't important.
11:12The main thing is I'm here.
11:14Well, I'm warning you.
11:15Well, I'm warning you, you'd better hit the trail.
11:16Save your breath.
11:19I think I'm going to like it here.
11:22You're taking things mighty high-handed, ain't you?
11:25That's right.
11:26I happened to be in town when your boys dropped in on the bank.
11:29And I trailed you here.
11:30It's a good thing I'm not a posture to do all swing.
11:37That's from the cabin.
11:42I don't like to kill off men I aim to work with.
11:44But the next time you try to draw on me,
11:46you're going to get one dead center.
11:49Move down where I can keep an eye on you.
11:51Move!
12:03What's going on here?
12:04Put your rivals on the table.
12:06You won't need them.
12:10This Watt, he stuck us up and said he's joining us.
12:13Where'd you get that idea?
12:15You boys beaten through that bank today by five minutes.
12:18You lost one of your men, so I figured it'd take his place.
12:20And his share.
12:22Well, maybe I got something to say about that.
12:24Maybe.
12:24But I don't think so.
12:26There's enough of us to down him, boss.
12:27Say the word.
12:28Go ahead and make your play.
12:31But this outfit is going to lose a couple of men.
12:35I'll start even with you.
12:38Look out, boss.
12:39He's pretty fast.
12:45I like men that don't scare easy.
12:48We'll forget the gunplay.
12:49What do you answer to, mister?
12:51Nevada will do.
12:55Jake, you're in.
12:57This is Nickelplate, Guilifer, Wilson and Hardy.
13:02Hardy.
13:03Hey.
13:04How'd you get by us?
13:07We were watching that trail.
13:09Yes, I know.
13:10I saw you.
13:25Come in.
13:29$6,247 and a few cents, Mr. Bradford.
13:32Well, that's quite a loss, Miller.
13:34But I suppose it could have been worse.
13:36People have been asking me if we're going to close our doors.
13:39Well, it's happened to us before and we're still open, aren't we?
13:42But you can't keep shouldering those losses.
13:44I've got to.
13:45What about those loans on cattle?
13:47The mortgages we hold?
13:48Some of those people need extension very badly.
13:50I know.
13:50And I'll carry them as long as our credit lasts.
13:53And then, of course, we have to look after ourselves and those eastern banks.
13:57Yes, sir.
13:58And eastern banks are unsympathetic, Miller.
14:01Very unsympathetic.
14:02I think I understand, Mr. Bradford.
14:06Mr. Slade's coming in to see you, sir.
14:08All right.
14:09How are you, Mr. Slade?
14:10Hello, Miller.
14:17I saw the holdup from my office in the saloon.
14:20Besides getting one of our men killed by a shoemaker, how'd we come out?
14:24A little better than $6,000.
14:26Hmm.
14:28That's just what you figured it'd be.
14:30Too bad half of us got to come back into the bank.
14:33And what about that gold dust shipment in the vaults?
14:35Do we give half of that back, too, after we get it?
14:37No, sir.
14:38We're going to keep that.
14:39And all of today's hall, too.
14:41There's going to be no more personal loans from those fictitious eastern banks.
14:45And no more fancy extensions on mortgages and cattle.
14:48You're right.
14:50I've got this town just where I want it.
14:53I'm going to own every head of stock parcel of land and mining property within a hundred miles.
14:58Now, don't cover too much ground there, Bradford.
15:01Part of it's mine, you know.
15:02Why, of course it is, Slade.
15:04I'll take care of you.
15:05You know that.
15:06Hmm.
15:07Sure, but I like to talk about it, too, once in a while.
15:11What about that gold dust shipment?
15:12And still go out tomorrow night?
15:15The stage leaves tomorrow night, and the gold will be on us.
15:17Now, I'd better get up the bare bar draw and tell the boards.
15:20All right, do that.
15:28There you are, you maverick.
15:30Then I'll hold you for a while.
15:31Come on.
15:31Come on.
15:33Come on.
15:33Come on.
15:34Come on.
15:35Hello, Sandy.
15:37How are you?
15:38I've been drumming up a trade for you.
15:39You won't have to bother about drumming up a trade.
15:41Look in that chair.
15:42Everybody in town's been in here.
15:44Well, Slim's brought you a pair of boots here.
15:46Show them to him, Slim.
15:47Yeah, Bobcat clawed them off me as I was kicking him out of the smokehouse.
15:50Can you fix them for me?
15:52Well, you know that'll take quite a job.
15:54Well, no hurry.
15:55Tomorrow night'll be all right.
15:57Yeah.
15:58All right.
15:58You drop in on your way home.
16:00See what I can do.
16:01Good seeing you.
16:03Hey, uh, this boot pinches.
16:05Whereabouts the boot stretcher?
16:06Hello.
16:07Hello, Phyllis.
16:09Are you the new bootmaker?
16:11Yes.
16:12Oh, Phyllis, this is Sandy.
16:14Could you fix these in time for the dance tomorrow night?
16:18Well, the boy isn't a very good dancer, isn't he?
16:21And why not?
16:23Well, it looks like the toes of these shoes are all chopped down.
16:27He's the best dancer in town.
16:30Well, that's quite natural for a girl to feel that way about her young man.
16:34He's not my young man.
16:36Clyde Miller is, well, he's just a good friend.
16:41Uh-huh.
16:41Uh-huh.
16:42Well, you don't have to blush so deep about it.
16:46I'm not blushing.
16:47Well, I'm sorry.
16:48But I'd say it again if you'd blush that pretty.
16:53You can't get the best of Sandy, Phyllis.
16:56He sure is a coward.
16:58Oh, by the way, you was telling me you wanted some place to put up.
17:02That's right.
17:02Phyllis's aunt runs a boarding house.
17:04Yes, she does, Sandy.
17:05You might come over and see if you like it.
17:07Well, I do that.
17:08But I can't come right now because I've got a peck of work ahead with me.
17:13And I wouldn't be fibbing the mic to you if I told you that I didn't even have to start
17:17it.
17:18I wish you'd start with mine.
17:19All right. All right. I...
17:21No, on second thought, I think I'd better practice on the booth first.
17:26All right. I'll see you tonight.
17:28Goodbye.
17:28Bye-bye.
17:28Bye-bye.
17:39What do you want?
17:40Who are you?
17:41Who am I?
17:42Better get back on that horse and start running before I show you.
17:45Let him alone.
17:46Nevada.
17:47Just a slave.
17:48Next time you see me, don't start asking questions.
17:51Next time I see you, I'll know you.
17:52Good morning, Gus.
17:59Where's that new man?
18:00He's on the Dodge. He rode in today.
18:02Get rid of him.
18:03He's all right. He's a good gunhead.
18:05What'd you let him in for?
18:07Well, he can take Red's place.
18:09He was hopping mad because we beat him to the bank by about five minutes.
18:13Well, watch him.
18:13Take him with you on our first little party.
18:15If he makes one wrong move, let him have it.
18:25Stay outside. This is a business talk.
18:27If there's business going on here, I'm in on it.
18:30This is private business.
18:31That's the kind I like to hear.
18:33Hey, who is he?
18:34I'm giving orders here.
18:36They might as well all of them listen to this.
18:38Call him in.
18:41Hey, Nickelplace, Gillifer, come on in.
18:44Call you, sir.
18:44Now, you might be used to operating alone,
18:47but you ain't running any part of this outfit.
18:49You're taking orders.
18:54Now, man, there's a gold dust shipment leading town tomorrow night.
18:57Pick up the stagecoach right where the road runs into Sand Hill Pass.
19:00After that, stay out of sight until you hear from me.
19:05Now, there's a man that speaks my language.
19:22Oh, come in, Sandy.
19:24Am I too late for supper?
19:26No.
19:27Auntie Max!
19:29Auntie Max!
19:30Don't be a-yellin' like the house is afire.
19:32Every but the time I...
19:34Uh-huh.
19:35Uh, this is Sandy, Auntie Max.
19:37Sandy Hopkins.
19:38Miss Philly said I might board with you.
19:40Maybe.
19:41Well, sit down.
19:43I'll let you know when supper's ready.
19:45Don't mind her.
19:46She always talks as though she just stubbed her toe.
19:48Oh, I don't.
19:50My!
19:51Something smells awful good.
19:52Or else I'm mighty hungry.
19:55Oh, here's your shoes.
19:56I hope you'll be pleasing before I fix them mighty solidly.
20:00Well, hurry up.
20:01Supper's all ready.
20:02And I know it's gonna be mighty tasty.
20:04Well, come on.
20:05You don't want it to get cold, do you?
20:06Oh!
20:07Uh, what's the matter with your hands?
20:08Oh, no.
20:09Nothing.
20:10Nothing at all.
20:10Let me see it.
20:11Why, that nail's all black.
20:13Is it contagious?
20:14I don't think so.
20:16I caught it from a hammer.
20:18Oh, uh, Phyllis, uh, get me that ball of fire liniment and some rag.
20:21And a big needle.
20:22A needle?
20:23It ain't that bad, is it?
20:24I know what I'm doing.
20:26I ought to.
20:27I nursed two husbands to a comfortable grave.
20:30Two husbands to a comfortable grave?
20:33I did that.
20:34And you ain't as strong as either one of them.
20:36You can't.
20:37Here you are, Auntie Mac.
20:39Oh, yes.
20:39This ball of fire liniment.
20:41Just use it for everything.
20:43I see.
20:43It may be a little might strong, but you just have to stand it.
20:46Oh!
20:47Now I know why they call it that.
20:49Here, now.
20:50Let me wrap it up, now.
20:52Where's Clyde?
20:53He knows we eat here at seven.
20:56Uh, uh, Clyde, is he coming?
20:58Is he coming?
20:59Him that ain't missed his supper in months.
21:01Come on, now.
21:02Give me your finger.
21:04Oh!
21:05Another bandage.
21:07You know, when that clock over there strikes seven,
21:10you can hear him knock on that door.
21:13There.
21:20What'd I tell you?
21:22Well, mind, Lance.
21:23Go on.
21:24Open the door.
21:24Open the door.
21:25Let him in.
21:27Hello, Phyllis.
21:28Hello, Clyde.
21:29Hello, Auntie Mac.
21:30Uh, this is Sandy Hopkins, the new boarder.
21:32Glad to see you again.
21:33Howdy.
21:34He did some mighty fine shooting this morning.
21:36Well, I can't take credit for that.
21:37That's a sort of accidental light.
21:39I guess it must have been.
21:40Some of the boys have been pacing it off.
21:42Sixty-four yards.
21:43Almost sixty-five.
21:44That's remarkable.
21:45I didn't know a pistol would carry that far.
21:48He was on the run, too.
21:49But you got him.
21:50Oh!
21:51Mind, lamb, supper's all ready.
21:52Go on.
21:52Get in there.
21:53Get in there.
21:53Now, fellas, hurry up.
21:54Go on in, Clyde.
21:55I'm not going to cook supper and have to get off.
21:57Oh, before we eat it.
21:59And the people they did stay for many miles away
22:03T'was the outlaws Frank and Jessie James.
22:08Jessie left a wife to mourn all her life
22:13The children that they are a brave
22:17T'was the dirty little coward that shot Mr. Howard
22:22And laid poor Jessie in his grave
22:35I can't figure it out and neither can Mr. Bradford.
22:38I'm only glad you didn't get shot.
22:41Did Auntie Max lead you all your fine singing?
22:44I'm afraid so.
22:46She's still at it.
22:47I was just telling Phyllis, I can't understand
22:49how that gang of outlaws finds out about things.
22:51No?
22:52No.
22:53It just so happened we had more money in the bank today
22:54We've had in six months.
22:56Hmm.
22:56Can you take it all?
22:58Well, yes.
22:59All the cash.
23:00All the cash.
23:00To the cash.
23:01Mm-hmm.
23:05To the cash.
23:06To the cash.
23:25Roar, you're right, Poison.
23:26I know what's going on here.
23:26To the cash.
23:33You know, I wasn't sure whether you're signaling or not.
23:35Here of late, the birds have been starting to whistle just like you.
23:38You seem to be right at home.
23:40That woman, she could corral a bunch of outlaws single-handed.
23:44We may need her.
23:45Things are starting up.
23:46Yeah?
23:47Had a visit up at Bearport today.
23:49Name is Slade.
23:51He's the boss, all right.
23:53But he's got a partner.
23:53We've got to find out who he is.
23:55Slade runs a saloon.
23:57Made his partner live here, too.
23:58Well, that's a mighty good lead to start with.
24:00They're figuring on holding up the stage tomorrow night for a shipment of gold.
24:04It's right here in the bank now.
24:06You know, I thought that was more or less of a secret after the way this gang's been operating.
24:10Yeah, that's just it.
24:11There's a leak somewhere.
24:13Tomorrow night.
24:14Don't give us much time, does it?
24:16No.
24:17Hey, I want you to figure out a way to keep that gold here just in case I miss out.
24:21Well, I suppose I could rob the bank and bury the dust.
24:25You figure out an angle.
24:26You're smart enough for that.
24:29I am?
24:29Why, sure.
24:30But right now we're going to pay Mr. Slade a visit.
24:33The photos?
24:33Yeah.
24:34You go on ahead.
24:35But listen, why don't you stir him up a little for me?
24:39How bad do you want him or I'll never know about it?
24:41Oh, make him mad enough to shoot you.
24:44No matter, you know, sometimes you're awful good for me.
24:47And listen, remember, we are strangers.
24:52I'm going to be the strangest, strangest you ever met.
24:55Good.
24:56Come on.
24:57I have a stage.
24:59A pair of hearts.
25:01Ten of hearts.
25:03A pair of diamonds.
25:05And a cue girl.
25:08Ace high.
25:10Three blues.
25:18I'll just call that pair of queens.
25:25I don't know how a man's luck can run so bad unless there's something wrong with the dealer.
25:31Folks have been killed for those kind of remarks, old-timer.
25:34People have gotten a lot of trouble from calling me old-timer.
25:39All right.
26:00I'll take a stack.
26:03Well, there are $50 table stakes.
26:05Might be a little rough for you.
26:08It's an open game.
26:09Snip the cheer.
26:10Here's my money.
26:16All right.
26:18You'll ask for it.
26:20You don't seem to be very friendly.
26:22I picked my friends.
26:25I'm careful that way, too.
26:29Cut them.
26:34Here we go.
26:39Here's a nine of spades.
26:41A tray of clubs.
26:43Five of hearts.
26:44King of spades.
26:46Loose of diamonds.
26:47King of diamonds.
26:48First king bets.
26:50Small.
26:52No coat.
26:53I'll stay.
26:55Decent.
26:57That's better.
26:59Coming around.
27:01Seven of spades.
27:04Hold the deal.
27:06I don't want that one.
27:08I don't want that one.
27:08It's your card.
27:10Pick it up.
27:11No.
27:12I'd rather have the one that's coming to me.
27:16The one that's on top.
27:18Are you accusing me of cheating?
27:21What do you think?
27:23I wouldn't do that if I were you.
27:26Just sit down.
27:27Take it easy.
27:36What are you doing?
27:37What do you got there?
27:39Ten dollars.
27:46You get out of here.
27:47And the next time you accuse a man of cheating,
27:49you better know what you're talking about.
27:51Look to me like that.
27:52Shut up.
27:53He was on the level.
27:54I saw him.
27:55I should have let him drill you.
27:57You make tracks through that door.
27:59It's the scariest town I've ever seen.
28:04Wait a minute, madam.
28:09Hey, what's the angle?
28:11Why'd you protect that old fool?
28:12I didn't.
28:13I wanted to save you from you to hurt your standing in the community
28:16by shooting an old man like that.
28:18I'm beginning to believe you know your way around.
28:21I'll buy a drink.
28:23Nope.
28:35What'd you send for me?
28:36Some changes in our plans?
28:37No, not exactly.
28:38Sit down.
28:41Read this.
28:44Stage, Inspector.
28:46What about it?
28:47That end ought to bother you none.
28:48Well, it doesn't.
28:49Only we're going to see that this inspector gets the man
28:52who's working undercover with those bandits.
28:54In fact, we're going to catch him ourselves.
28:57What do you figure, then?
28:58I got the man all picked out.
29:00When we get that goal tonight, he'll be on the stage.
29:04And carrying a little evidence with him.
29:07What, for instance?
29:08Some of my securities.
29:12How are you going to do it?
29:13Listen, there's Curly Ballou driving that stage tonight.
29:16Yeah, Curly.
29:17But I want you to have a talk with him first.
29:19And then ride up and tell the boys.
29:20Now, we're taking our man off that stage tonight.
29:23And then, when the inspector arrives here,
29:26we'll have a prisoner waiting for him.
29:29That's simple, isn't it?
29:35Oh, uh, Clyde.
29:36Hello, Sandy.
29:38How's the fingers?
29:39You bust any more?
29:40Well, just fine.
29:41They're practically healed up.
29:43I got a new system now.
29:45I don't hit them anymore.
29:47How come?
29:47Well, I grab the hammer in both hands.
29:51You know, I understand that the stage line inspector
29:53is coming through in the morning.
29:55We just got the news.
29:56How did you know?
29:57Well, I make it my business to know a lot of things.
30:00Come inside.
30:01I want to speak to you for a moment.
30:14Well, see then?
30:17U.S. Marshal's badge.
30:19What are you doing with it?
30:20I carry it because I am a United States Marshal.
30:24I thought you were a shoemaker.
30:25Well, if you'd ever worn any boots with my fixings on them,
30:29you'd know better than that.
30:30I don't understand.
30:31Why don't you whack me outside?
30:33Well, now, wait a minute.
30:34Did you ever hear of a bad man wearing a badge out here saying,
30:38I'm a bandit?
30:39No.
30:40Well, I guess not.
30:42Sit down.
30:43You know, there's a gold shipment going out on the stage tonight.
30:46That's right.
30:47How did you know?
30:48I just told you.
30:49I'm a Marshal.
30:51And it's my opinion that there's an undercover man in this town
30:55who's the head of that gang that's doing all the cleaning up.
30:57Are you sure?
30:58I'm just as sure of that as I am they're going to hold up that stage tonight.
31:02Well, if you know that, why don't you get a posse together and arrest them?
31:06Well, you see, if I did that, I wouldn't be able to corral the lead man.
31:10Well, I'm not going to ship those strongboxes out tonight.
31:13I'm not so sure that that would work.
31:15I think they'd know about it just as soon as you do.
31:18And besides, that would mess up the plans of my partner and put them all galley walkers.
31:22Who is your partner?
31:24Another United States Marshal in hiding.
31:27In fact, the matter is, he's up with those bandits now.
31:30Only they don't know it.
31:31Suppose I ship something in place of the gold.
31:33Wouldn't know until they opened the boxes.
31:34That's just exactly what I want you to do, Clyde.
31:38Just wait for folks to find out you're a Marshal, not a shoemaker.
31:41Well, now that United States Marshal did this,
31:43we'll have to kind of remain a secret between you and I.
31:47And as far as the shoemaker of business,
31:50well, the customers will find out soon enough themselves.
31:54You can count on me, Sandy.
31:56Thank you, Clyde.
31:57Thought you'd be that kind of a boy.
32:16What are you doing, Miller?
32:19Filling the strong box of sand, Mr. Bradford.
32:21We can't ship gold tonight.
32:22Why not?
32:23The stage is going to be held up.
32:24Held up, huh?
32:25Yes.
32:26How do you know this?
32:27Who told you?
32:28Well, I gave my word not to tell that, but I will say one thing.
32:30The bandits are due for surprise.
32:32There's a U.S. Marshal riding with them and they don't know it.
32:35A U.S. Marshal, huh?
32:37Well, now, that is good news.
32:39Perhaps, however, if he's going to be with them ready to catch them,
32:43it might be all right to send that gold through.
32:45I think it's better this way, sir.
32:46Even the U.S. Marshal's plans might slip up.
32:49Well, maybe you're right.
32:51Go on with the exchange.
32:52That's it.
33:07Now, you got it straight, Curly?
33:08Sure.
33:09Soon as it's all over with, drive back to the saloon and tell them the story about Miller.
33:13Oh, sweet.
33:14Yeah.
33:16I understand you've got a new man up at the hideout.
33:18Yeah, Gus took one on yesterday.
33:20Yeah, well, the man Gus took on yesterday happens to be a U.S. Marshal.
33:23What?
33:24Say, maybe...
33:25If anything, you take care of that Marshal, Slade,
33:28and then go through with everything as planned.
33:30Good as done.
33:32Now, Curly, you have your instructions?
33:34Sure, Slade.
33:42Take a flight, you're in Nevada. Go down to the lookout route and take over for a while.
33:46You can spot that rifle of his as far as he can shoot you.
33:48But I don't mess with it.
33:50Go on down there.
33:51Don't let anybody get up that draw unless you know him.
33:56You guys want to play a little pitch?
33:58Yeah.
33:59Yeah.
34:01Go ahead, Deacon.
34:14Here comes a customer.
34:16Wait a minute.
34:17Wait a minute.
34:19Wait a minute.
34:20Made a mistake.
34:29Where's Gus?
34:30Inside.
34:37Where's that new man?
34:38Sent him down to draw a little while ago.
34:40Why?
34:40What you want him for?
34:41He happens to be a U.S. Marshal, that's all.
34:43A U.S. Marshal?
34:44I guess we gotta get him and get him quick.
34:46I'll take care of him.
34:48I know right where he is.
34:49You better all go.
34:50No, no.
34:50Let him go.
34:51He's got a personal grudge to settle.
35:04Where's the big boy?
35:05I haven't seen him.
35:08Slade?
35:08You seen him just a few minutes ago.
35:10No, no.
35:10I mean the other one.
35:12He doesn't come around much, huh?
35:13Oh, him?
35:14There's something funny about him.
35:20I can't lose that.
35:21Here.
35:38Here.
35:48Here.
36:29Well, I'd like to do that every day in the week.
36:31Did you get him?
36:32Like a bottle on a fence.
36:33I sure scared the pants off nickel plate.
36:35He jumped his horse and split the breeze away from camp.
36:38He'll come back.
36:39I don't know.
36:40He started out like he was quitting the country.
36:42What about that marshal's body?
36:44Leave it right where it is.
36:46More evidence against Miller when he's picked up here after the holdup.
37:05Here you are, Curly.
37:07Can I help you out with it?
37:09No, I can take it all right.
37:10All right.
37:28All right.
37:28Oh, Miller.
37:30Well, I'm glad I caught you.
37:32These securities have got to go east tonight, but I want you to take them personally.
37:35I just sent Curly off with a strong box.
37:37I know. I had him hold the stage.
37:39What about the hold-up?
37:41Well, you told me yourself that Marshal is going to be with them, ready to crack down on them.
37:45You're not afraid, are you?
37:47No. I'm not afraid.
37:54Well, that's the first time I ever saw you carry a gun, Miller.
37:57Said these securities had to get through. That Marshal may need help.
38:00That's the spirit, my boy. You'll get through all right.
38:03And catch the next stage fast.
38:04I'll drop off and tell Phyllis I'm leaving.
38:06No, there won't be time for that. I'll do it for you.
38:08I'm depending on you. Goodbye and good luck, and I'll lock up.
38:12And don't tell anyone you leave.
38:22All right, Curly. Let's go.
38:26Go!
38:49There he is now. I'll leave you alone until Sandy comes.
38:55Come in.
38:57Well, you look very lovely, Phyllis.
38:59Oh, Mr. Bradford, I thought you were Clyde.
39:01Well, I thought I might find him here.
39:03I'm expecting him.
39:04Well, I'm a bit worried about some securities that seem to have been misplaced.
39:08I gave them to him yesterday.
39:10Well, won't you wait? I'm sure he'll be here soon.
39:12Oh, no, it's not that important.
39:14I'll take another look at the bank.
39:16I hope you find them.
39:17Good night.
39:18Good night.
39:22Clyde, if she tells you she made all that dress with...
39:25Well, where is he?
39:26It wasn't Clyde. It was Mr. Bradford.
39:29That old skinned Flint.
39:30Oh, he's not.
39:32I like that hat better now, don't you?
39:34Oh, much better. Thank you, Auntie Mac.
39:37Come in.
39:41Am I supposed to knock or walk right in?
39:44You live here, don't you?
39:45Yes.
39:46Then figure it out yourself.
39:49Well, I figured it.
39:53Sandy, have you seen Clyde?
39:55Well, yes.
39:55I just saw him across the street.
39:57He had to go east in a hurry, didn't he?
39:59Go east?
40:00What do you mean?
40:01Well, I just saw him get on the stagecoach.
40:04The stagecoach?
40:05I don't understand.
40:07Well, he was supposed to take me to the dance.
40:10Oh, well, there's nothing to worry about.
40:12I guess he just drove down to the barn to check on some shippers.
40:23I'll go out and, uh, take a look for him.
40:31Somebody told Slade and the gang that I'm a United States Marshal.
40:34They tried to get me.
40:35Well, nobody knew it.
40:36I knew it myself.
40:38Well, wait a minute.
40:39I did tell that kid that worked in the bank.
40:41But he couldn't be the one.
40:43Anybody could be the one.
40:45Where's the kid now?
40:46Stage.
40:46With the gold?
40:47No gold.
40:48He put sand in those boxes.
40:50After you told him about the holdup, he went anyway?
40:53Yes.
40:54There's something wrong about that.
40:55Well, I can't figure it out myself.
40:58We've got to find that kid.
40:59He's in trouble.
41:00Come on.
41:01Get your horse and we'll follow that coach.
41:08Move.
41:11Now let's go.
41:12Don't want to beat that coach to Sand Hill Pass.
41:30Come!
41:32Come up.
41:40Come!
41:41Come!
41:43Come up.
41:45Come up.
41:51Have a painted voice.
41:52Come!
41:53Come up!
41:53All right, Charlie.
41:58Come on.

46:01Let's go.
46:37I'll take charge of that man, Simmons.
46:44Wait a minute, son. I'll untie you.
46:47You must be the U.S. Marshal.
46:49They told me they got you.
46:50Yeah? Well, they'll find out different.
46:52Let's ride. We're headed for town.
46:54Wait. I'll get his gun.
47:00I've got a little business of my own to settle with Mr. Bradford.
47:03He's behind this whole thing.
47:04Bradford, huh?
47:05Well, that's all I wanted to know.
47:07Let's go.
47:27Bradford, just a minute.
47:39Bradford, what's wrong?
47:41Just a little matter of a gold dust shipment that turned out to be sand.
47:44Men don't live that cost me.
47:46Have you gone mad?
47:47Put that gun away.
47:48Put it away.
47:50Why, the gold is still in my safe.
47:52I just didn't have time to send word to you.
47:54And I just didn't know exactly what that Marshal might manage to do.
47:59I told you we'd take care of him.
48:00We did.
48:01Now, Curly's right behind us with the stage.
48:03Now, get in there and get that posse organized.
48:06Remember this, Bradford.
48:07I'll be in my office.
48:08You won't be out of my sight till we open that safe together.
48:12Now, go on.
48:26Men, I had you come here tonight because this town faces a serious situation.
48:32My bank has been robbed three times.
48:35Sheriff Middick was killed and so far nobody has been appointed to take his place.
48:39Well, then there's time that something was done about it.
48:42Now, I'm against all violence.
48:44But I believe the one thing for us to do is to organize a citizen's vigilance committee.
48:50Well, that's the way they cleaned up Virginia City, wasn't it?
48:53Well, yeah, and they've done a good job, too.
48:54Well, then we'll do it here.
49:11Gentlemen, we've got to do something just as drastic.
49:14What's going on here?
49:15Meeting.
49:16We're organizing to run down them bandits.
49:19Well, it's about time somebody did something about it.
49:21We'll have to do it.
49:23I'll lend the full support of my bank.
49:32Grab that team there and hold it for me, will it?
49:43Mr. Bradford, we're glad you're here.
49:46The stage was just held out.
49:47What's that?
49:48They've done it again.
49:49Now, that gold shipping of yours, it's gone.
49:51Why, that's impossible.
49:52No one knew he was shipping it.
49:53Clyde Miller knew it.
49:55Yes, of course.
49:56Well, he was on the stage and helped him do it.
49:58Hey, there, there, Miller.
49:59He's in with him?
50:00Just as I was pulling in the Sand Hill Pass.
50:02No, no, no, it couldn't be Clyde.
50:04Yeah, but he did.
50:05They had a horse ready for him.
50:06Miller was laughing as he rode away.
50:08Did you hear that?
50:09He not only robbed us, but he laughs about us.
50:10Well, Curly, this is a pretty hard thing for us to realize,
50:13but I'm afraid we'll have to, at least part of it.
50:16Of one thing, we're sure.
50:17Miller is with the bandits now.
50:19And when we find them, he'll have a chance to speak for himself.
50:23Well, at least he picked out a new spot to do the job.
50:26Well, I sure never would have suspected Miller.
50:28Well, I still can't believe it.
50:29Well, it's his play this day.
50:31He's been tipping them bandits off right along.
50:33I say, let's start now.
50:35Well, me and the boys are willing to ride with you, aren't we, boys?
50:37Well, I'm going to borrow my gun.
50:39Well, me too.
50:40We'll find Miller if we have to turn over every rock in the state.
50:44Come on.
50:45I wouldn't go to all that trouble.
50:46Miller's right here.
50:49What is this, another holdup?
50:51That's right.
50:52Bradford and these five men are under arrest for murder and robbery.
50:55Why, that's a ridiculous way.
50:57These men have known me for years.
50:59Not well enough.
51:01Where's your partner's slave?
51:28What's the matter to you three boys?
51:29Don't you feel lucky?
51:32I'm a United States Marshal, Jack McKenzie.
51:34This is my partner, Marshal Hopkins.
51:37United States Marshal?
51:38Well, I thought of it as a bootmaker.
51:40Well, I...
51:41Miller here is 100% innocent, but his testimony is going to convict Bradford.
51:46Your gold is still safe here in the bank.
51:48Men, that dance is still going on over at the hall, and your wives are waiting.
51:52You'll take charge of your bandits.
51:54I'm going to have no use for this.
51:56Here, Dick, put this away.
51:57I won't need it.
51:58I'm going to get rid of him.
51:59I'm going to get rid of him.
52:03All these boots are killing me.
52:05Mine, too.
52:07Here they come.
52:14Congratulations, Jack McKenzie.
52:17Happy day.
52:18Happy day.
52:19Good luck.
52:20Good luck.
52:24Marshal or no Marshal, I've just got to do it.
52:26Me, me, too.
52:27I'm with you.
52:28Thank you, buddy.
52:36Oh.
52:37Hey.
52:41Hey.
52:51How is it?
52:53Bigger like a school bell.
52:55You know, them folks are mighty unappreciative of my cobblin'.
52:59Say, did you ever have a boot appearance?
53:01I sure have.
53:03I guess I can't blame them very much.
53:05You know, we sure cut ourselves a piece of that gooseberry pie, didn't we?
53:09Yep.
53:10All the aches and pains are gone.
53:12It's a good town now.
53:14Yep.
53:15I don't reckon you'd like to come down to Texas and set a spell.
53:19No, I'm heading north.
53:21Well.
53:22So long, nobody.
53:23So long, Sandy.
53:25I don't know.
53:31I don't know.
53:33I don't know.
53:35I don't know.
53:37I don't know.
53:38I don't know.
53:39I don't know.
53:39I don't know.
