03:55Ah!

04:35Ah!

04:55Ah!

05:31Drop that money bag, Martin.

05:53Hand me that bag.

06:09Work your way down the creek, back to town, ditch that stuff.

06:12I've got to plug an arm, Joe.

06:13We'll take care of that when we get back to town.

06:19We'll take care of that.

06:57We'll take care of that.

07:13We'll take care of that.

07:35I've killed my best friend.

07:38You were only doing your duty, Higgins.

07:40Why take it so to heart?

07:43When duty makes it necessary to take the life of a man like old Dan Matthews,

07:48well, then I'm through with duty.

07:50Well, there is positive proof that he was one of the gang.

07:54Clem here saw him tie his horse behind Wells Fargo.

07:57The evidence is too strongly against him.

08:01Circumstantial evidence has convicted many a man, Dixon, and I still believe that Dan Matthews is innocent.

08:10I'd like to see you at the office, Mr. Williams.

08:13I'll be right over, John.

08:17Well, Williams, I guess you get your old job back.

08:22Well, my eyes are not as good and my hands are not as fast, but I'll take the job until

08:28you can get a better man.

08:29That's right. Fair enough.

08:42Sit down, Ed. I'd like to explain something.

08:49When Dan Matthews left here, he'd just drawn all his money out of the bank.

08:54He was going to restock his ranch and get it in shape for his daughter, who's coming out this next

08:59year.

09:01This money was on, Dan, when I found it.

09:07I wish you'd see that his daughter gets it.

09:10It's rightfully hers.

09:12I'll keep it for it, John.

09:14No one will ever know.

09:17Thanks.

09:21Been about a year since Higgins left town now.

09:24I saw him about six months ago.

09:26He was in town cashing in some nuggets.

09:28He's turned desert rat, you know.

09:30Must have hit him pretty hard, shooting old Dan.

09:34Never saw anything like it.

09:36He's like a dead man, walking around with the weight of the world in his heart.

09:40What about Dan's daughter?

09:42I had a letter from her a few weeks ago.

09:44Says she's figuring on coming out here soon.

09:46Huh?

09:47I think she'd be better off back east with her aunt.

09:50Same as I think John's better off out yonder.

09:52Mm-hmm.

09:53He's a strange feller, Bob.

09:56Howie hates outlaws.

09:58Says they're to blame for him shooting old Dan.

10:01Mm-hmm.

10:05Bill says he might be pretty good.

10:05I don't know.

11:03A broken leg, eh?

11:05Oh, don't try to talk, son.

11:08I'll have you in camp before night.

11:17Black Eagle!

11:17No!

11:20No!

11:23No!

11:29No!

11:30No!

11:36No!

11:39No!

11:45No!

11:57No!

11:58No!

12:05No!

12:07No!

12:10No!

12:12No!

12:22No!

12:23No!

12:30No!

12:39No!

12:40No!

12:41No!

12:42No!

13:02No!

13:08No!

13:14No!

13:18No!

13:22No!

13:23No!

13:26No!

13:34No!

13:39No!

13:41No!

13:46No!

13:52No!

17:26You value your life.

17:27Keep down.

18:03Can you drive?

18:06The town's about three miles ahead.

18:08Just stay on this road.

18:09I don't understand.

18:10You're an outlaw, a killer.

18:12And you're letting me go?

18:13Yes, and you'd better hurry.

18:26And the last I saw of him, he was standing in the middle of the road watching me drive away.

18:30Can you describe this bad man?

18:34Can you describe this bad man?

19:00I don't know.

19:01I don't know.

19:04I'll take you out of the ranch.

19:07I've got to get my boys started after Blake.

19:10All right, Sheriff.

19:11I'll be glad to get home.

19:36I'll be glad to get home.

19:42I'll be glad to get home.

19:42I've got you.

19:44I'll be glad to get home.

19:46I'll be glad to see you.

19:46There's your express money.

19:50I might have known it was you.

19:52that young lady whose life was in your hands just left here.

19:56She told me everything.

19:59John, you and I are going to have a very serious talk.

20:04Sit down.

20:10John, that young lady is none other than Bess Matthews.

20:14She's coming back here shortly.

20:16I'm going to drive her out to the Lazy Inn.

20:19She thinks there's an income from the ranch.

20:22The money that we've got here will need a cool head to spend it.

20:29John, that's your job.

20:32I don't know.

20:34I'd never get away with it.

20:36She'd know it was I who...

20:37Who's going to tell her?

20:39She'll find out sometime, yes.

20:41But in the meantime, let's put the old Lazy Inn back on its feet.

20:46Just the way old Dan would like it.

20:50What do you say?

20:53I'll try, Sheriff.

20:55Good.

20:56There's your room, clothes, and everything just as you left them.

21:00After you shave and clean up, no one will ever know you.

21:05Come out at the ranch tonight about 8 o'clock.

21:09All right, Ed.

21:10I'll be there.

21:15You've got the finest springs, the best grazing ground in the valley.

21:19And with John Higgins as foreman,

21:21why, you'll have the old Lazy Inn back on its feet in six months' time.

21:27That's him now.

21:31Good evening, Sheriff.

21:33Well, hello, John.

21:41Miss Matthews, I want you to meet my friend, John Higgins.

21:44I'm glad to know you, Mr. Higgins.

21:47Won't you sit out?

21:53The sheriff's been telling me about your thrilling experience.

21:56Thrilling?

21:56It was terrific.

21:58That bandit was the most hideous, the most horrible creature that ever was born.

22:02You don't say.

22:04A regular blue beard, eh?

22:06Right.

22:09That's Aunt Martha.

22:10Best cook in the country.

22:12Oh, I remember Aunt Martha.

22:13Sure you do.

22:14She just about raised you.

22:19Aunt Martha.

22:22Best Matthews.

22:24How you have grown.

22:26And you didn't forget me.

22:28Certainly not.

22:29Well, you shouldn't.

22:30I spanked you a plenty when you was a brat.

22:35John Higgins,

22:36I might have known I'd have to cook for you.

22:39Best,

22:40you're getting the best foreman in the country,

22:42but the worst eater.

22:44He's got an appetite like a camel.

22:46What do you mean, my appetite?

22:48It's the swell way you cook.

22:50Oh, there you go.

22:51Always flattering.

22:52And what's more,

22:53he leans back and breaks every chair in the kitchen.

22:58My goodness,

22:59you boys are sitting there without a thing to drink.

23:02Come on, Best.

23:02We'll fix them some coffee.

23:11We'll fix them some coffee.

23:12Everything's working out fine.

23:14Yeah, so far.

23:17How's it all going to end?

23:33There's the end of the south pasture, Miss Matthews.

23:36Now I guess you've seen about all the ranch.

23:45It certainly is big enough.

23:47I'll pick up a couple of boys

23:48and start repairing the fences

23:50and see if I can develop some new water holes.

23:53You know, it's strange,

23:54but your voice keeps reminding me of...

23:57Of Mr. Bluebeard?

23:58Yes.

24:00Well, I...

24:00I'm sorry.

24:02I might change it.

24:03I can talk up here right there.

24:05And don't be silly.

24:07You know,

24:08that was the only thing about Mr. Bluebeard

24:10that was halfway human.

24:13Shall we go back to the ranch?

24:14If you wish.

24:27Well, Ed.

24:28Hello, Bob.

24:29How's the ex-sheriff making out at Lacey Inn?

24:32Oh, all right, I guess.

24:33Been there three months

24:34and he's worked out a deal with the government.

24:36Uh-huh.

24:37Gonna raise horses and sell them to him.

24:38Made some dandy buys, too.

24:40And Miss Best.

24:41How is she like country and ranch life?

24:43I'm crazy about it.

24:45You're a court and Aunt Martha.

24:46Uh-huh.

24:47Well, that's fine.

24:49John,

24:49tomorrow night's Halloween.

24:51Aunt Martha says

24:52they're having the biggest dance of the year

24:54at Bolter's Barn.

24:55Let's go.

24:56I guess it has been kind of lonesome for you.

24:59Three months now

24:59and you haven't been off the ranch.

25:01Oh, I haven't been lonesome exactly.

25:03I've enjoyed being with you.

25:05Our rides and evenings for the fire.

25:07I've enjoyed them, too.

25:09It's the first time you've said so.

25:10Well, you've always been so strange and distant.

25:14Don't you like me?

25:15Well, that's just it, Bess.

25:16I...

25:18Well, someday you're going to hate me.

25:20It's inevitable.

25:22And when that time comes,

25:23I'm leaving this part of the country for good.

25:26Now, you tell Aunt Martha

25:27that I'm taking you two to the dance.

25:51Well, for pity's sake, child,

25:52what on earth's the matter with you?

25:54You're as pale as a ghost.

25:56I'm all right.

25:57But Aunt Martha,

25:59John says someday I'll hate him.

26:00What's the matter with him?

26:02Why will I hate him?

26:03Now, listen, honey.

26:04All men act like jackasses when they're in love.

26:07That's exactly what's the matter with John Higgins.

26:10He's head over heels in love with you.

26:12But don't worry.

26:13We'll just let matters take their own course.

26:15Like this fellow Spearshake says,

26:17all's well that ends well.

26:20Oh, John says he's taking us to the dance tonight.

26:24Yes, I know.

26:25He told me this morning.

26:27He did?

26:28Mm-hmm.

26:56Good evening, Ed.

26:58Quite a crowd.

27:00Looks like the whole country's going to be here.

27:02Got a match, John?

27:03Yeah, I think so.

27:10Where'd you get that ring?

27:12That's a gift from old Black Eagle.

27:14I thought I'd lost it.

27:18Miss Hawkins, meet Miss Matthews.

27:20I'm so glad to meet you, Miss Matthews.

27:22I must have been told.

27:24She sure is the belle of the ball, all right.

27:37Oh, there.

27:38I want you to know Mr. Dixon.

27:40How do you do?

27:41How do you do?

27:42Miss Matthews is boss of the Lazy M.

27:44Oh, it's a pleasure to know you, Miss Matthews.

27:46May I have the honor of the first dance?

27:48I'm sorry, but that's spoken for.

27:51But you may have the second.

27:52Oh, thank you.

27:53I'm lucky.

27:54Hmm, I should say so.

27:56I'll see you on the next day.

28:04Just a minute, everybody.

28:06Just a minute, just a minute.

28:07Now we're going to start this dance off with a nice, dreamy waltz.

28:17I've saved this first dance for you.

28:19Well, I hope I don't disappoint you.

28:21I'm not much of a dancer.

28:31I'm terribly happy.

28:33I'm glad.

28:34Being in a crowd must make a difference.

28:37It's not the crowd.

28:39I'm happy.

28:41Because I'm in your arms.

28:45It could only be like that.

28:54It might be strange, dancing with her foreman.

28:57And he's the man what killed her father.

29:00Foreman?

29:01Yes.

29:01Didn't you know it?

29:05No, that is funny.

29:08Ticket.

29:08How much?

29:10Dollar a piece.

29:11Dollar a piece.

29:23Hey, Baxter.

29:25Watch the door for a minute, will you?

29:33Say, Sheriff, I want to see you and John right now.

29:37John.

29:37What?

29:39Pete wants to talk to us a minute.

29:47Sheriff, the Martin boys just gave me this new bill.

29:50Let me see it.

29:51We've been on the lookout for these, John.

30:00That's got the same serial number.

30:02Those that were found when old Dan was killed.

30:04What do we do?

30:06Act like nothing's happened.

30:08This is the first clue we've had since the robbery.

30:11And I'll watch every move those Martins make.

30:17Yes, indeed, Miss Matthews.

30:19Your father and I were very close friends.

30:22Mr. Dixon.

30:24I've asked so many people about my father, and they've all evaded my question.

30:29Won't you tell me how he was killed?

30:31Well, I really think you ought to know.

30:34You won't hold it against me if I tell you.

30:36Certainly not.

30:37Well, your foreman killed your father, Miss Matthews.

30:42My...

30:44You mean...

30:45Mr. Higgins killed my father?

30:48You see, he was sheriff at the time.

30:51He had the law behind him.

30:53They fought it out alone.

30:54There were no witnesses, so no one ever learned the truth about the killing.

31:00Now get your partners for the Virginia Reel.

31:09Now salute your partners.

31:13Now fight loose.

31:41Give me that, you no-cold fool.

31:43You got to have your wits tonight.

31:45Yeah, and a little courage.

31:47You don't need any courage for this job.

31:50Feet to the dance, and all we have to do is break in and grab the money and beat it.

31:54The chief said wait till the milking contest's on, and there won't be anybody leaving.

31:58We won't be seen.

31:59Come on.

32:23Now folks, Jake Abernathy.

32:27Undefeated champion of Cow Slip Valley will contest against Aunt Martha Hubbard.

32:34Undefeated champion of Broken Bow.

32:37Come on.

32:44You're the only one who's ever told me the truth.

32:48They've all made a fool of me.

32:52Oh, please excuse me.

33:03Left 10 to 22.

33:06Turn right.

33:09Now keep the Martins here until I get back.

33:24John, I must see you alone.

33:27Well, I'm sorry, Bess.

33:28I can't see you right now.

33:31Please excuse me.

33:33I'll be back later.

34:03I'll be back later.

34:33I'll be back later.

34:33All ready, set, go!

34:37Move!

34:54How's it win?

35:09Well, not from a missed contest, are you boys?

35:44You will, Miss Matthews?

35:47Will you please take me home, Mr. Dixon?

35:49Oh, certainly.

36:21Money from the sheriff's office, Pete.

36:24Those two will soon lead me to the third party, and then I'll wring the truth out of them

36:28about old Dan.

36:57Oh, you won by a foul.

36:59Oh, but by Cracky, I'll keep you next year.

37:02All right, Jake Abernathy.

37:04I'll be waiting for you.

37:07I don't care.

37:20All right, Aunt Martha.

37:25Aunt Martha, you'll please excuse me.

37:28I want to speak to Mr. Higgins, alone.

37:36I hardly know how to begin.

37:40But when I say I know who you really are and what you are, perhaps you'll understand.

37:47Why did you wait months to wear that ring, Mr. Road Agent?

37:52And tonight, with my own eyes, I saw you rob the Wells Fargo.

37:57Followed me?

37:58I followed you.

37:59And I found out that you're not only a bandit and a robber, but a murderer as well.

38:05You killed my father.

38:07You can't deny it.

38:08The whole town knows it.

38:10I'm not trying to deny it, but won't you let me explain?

38:14Explain.

38:15I wouldn't believe anything you said.

38:17You've lived a lie ever since you've been here.

38:20You were right when you said I'd hate you.

38:23There aren't words vile enough to express my contempt for you.

38:28Now get out of here.

38:30I never want to see you again.

38:54Martin, boys, just went into Joe Dixon's place.

38:57They went in the back way.

38:59Dixon?

39:01I wonder.

39:03I tell you, Joe Higgins was the fellow that got that money away from us three months ago.

39:07He had a beard and other clothes, but I knew it didn't for the way he rode.

39:12Well, anyhow, I cooked his goose last night.

39:15He's out of a job by now.

39:17You know, I don't see any reason why I shouldn't step in and marry the boss of the Lazy Inn.

39:22She's sure as well-looking gal.

39:25Yeah, and she's got about a thousand head of slick-lipping horses in that south pasture.

39:29Oh, that is news.

39:32Making a quick turnover, we ought to get about eight or ten bucks a head.

39:38And with no stock on the ranch, the boss of the Lazy Inn probably will be glad to marry a

39:43well-to-do gent like myself.

39:46I'll ride over and get Brokaw.

39:47Him and his gang can help us with the drive.

39:49Yeah, that's a good idea.

40:01Dixon's leaving town.

40:03I reckon I'll just follow him.

40:05Dixon's leaving town.

40:37Dixon's leaving town.

40:39Dixon's leaving town.

40:47Dixon's leaving town.

40:48Dixon's leaving town.

40:50Dixon's leaving town.

40:51Dixon's leaving town.

40:52Dixon's leaving town.

40:53Dixon's leaving town.

40:56Dixon's leaving town.

40:59Dixon's leaving town.

41:03Dixon's leaving town.

41:15There's a thousand head of horses in the south pasture of the Lazy M.

41:19All we got to do is to shoo them off down to Gomez.

41:22He'll give us eight or ten bucks a head without a squawk.

41:26When do we start?

41:27Dawn tomorrow.

41:28No one will even see us.

41:50How?

41:51Black Eagle, I'm in great trouble.

41:54Men come tomorrow morning at sunrise to steal all my horses.

41:58Men, no steel horse.

42:00Me, my people, your friends, we fight.

42:06Good.

42:29Here comes Brokaw now.

42:39Take it easy, and when you get them running, push them through.

42:48Here they come.

42:50Boy, what a surprise they're going to get.

43:08Starting the first band out of the corral.

43:23Hold it hold.

43:24Hold it, hold it.

43:33Hold it hold.

43:38Hold it hold a littleikhail.

43:39Hold it, hold it alive, Leute.

46:35Now tell me, Martin, or I'll break every bone in your body.

46:38Who killed Dan Matthews?

46:41He's up, I'll tell.

46:43All right.

46:45Dixon and me held up the express office.

46:49You chased us and shot me off my horse.

46:54I run into the cabin.

46:56I run into the cabin.

46:56Old Dan was there.

46:58He threw down on me and made me drop the money bag.

47:02Dixon saw him through the window and killed him.

47:05Dixon?

47:07Dixon?

47:08Dixon?

47:08Take care of him, Sheriff.

47:10I'm heading for town.

47:11Hello, Nancy.

47:11Hey, go ahead.

47:24I was as normal.

47:33If you were there on the road, there was a

47:41Miss Matthews, I've got to tell you.

47:44Higgins and his Indian renegades rustled your horses.

47:46Me and my friends tried to stop them, but there were too many of them.

47:49Now use your phone.

47:50My sonny!

48:42I arrest you for the murder of Dan Matthews.

48:46Blackie Martin just confessed.

48:54Please.

49:52John's been gone nearly two months now.

49:55I wonder if he'll ever come back.

49:58Why don't you ask him?

50:00There's one fellow that might be able to tell you where to find him,

50:02and that's Chief Black Eagle.

50:04Squibbs, your new foreman, can take you to him.

50:12His place over there.

50:15Say, I won't be long.

50:48She's been in there two hours already.

50:52Maybe she's going to live there.

50:55Yeah.

50:56Women are sure queer critters.

50:59Me hungry.

51:02Me too.

51:03Say, what's the sense in a fellow starving himself to death for some low-code female?

51:09Let's get the heck out of here.

51:10Let's get the heck out of here.
