09:31Yeah
09:32Oh, gentlemen
09:33There was death in them eyes
09:35Sudden death
09:36Oh, I tell you
09:37When they took that swallow up here
09:39And that big one made that face
09:41And he looked dissatisfied and uneasy like
09:43Oh, I tell you
09:44I could hear them pearly gates ajar and open
09:48If you gentlemen will excuse me
09:50I
09:50I feel considerable shook
09:52As I
09:54I might shook up myself
10:02Miss Lorna Doon and ladies
10:04If I was you
10:05I'd get in off the streets
10:06It's apt to be a might dangerous
10:07Be Bannerman Brown

10:11Have a sense of duty
10:12If others that ought to ain't

10:30Quick, jump into your house of that
10:43Repent sinners
10:43The day of retribution is at hand

10:49Us poor, frail females
10:51Have come to throw ourselves on your mercy
10:55Come to do what, ma'am?
10:57We want you should spare us our men

11:04Amen
11:06Well, don't you worry, not ma'am
11:08We
11:08We'll spare you men if
11:10If they're worth sparing
11:18Hey
11:26What do you reckon you meant by all that?
11:27That beats the heck out of me
11:37Hey
11:40Somebody's shooting at somebody
11:42I think it's us
12:00What the heck did we do?
12:02They ain't fine, no, but I'm gonna find out
12:26Oh, Ross
12:28I paid two dollars for this
12:30I'm sure he wasn't much now
12:31Man, wasn't that good shooting
12:34Well, look, next time we'll use your own neckcloth, please
12:36I just hope there's gonna be a next time
12:38Hey, you in there!
12:41Huh?
12:42We know who you are
12:44And what you're here for
12:46You can die now or later
12:48And do you want a chance to make your peace?
12:51Throw out your guns
12:54Hey
12:54They got us mixed up with somebody else
12:57I sure hope so
12:59Well, why else would they be shooting at total innocent strangers
13:02If they didn't have us mixed up with somebody?
13:04I don't know
13:04This is Texas, though, huh?
13:06Yeah
13:06Well, reckon we better go ahead and do what he says
13:08Throw our guns out
13:09And then go out and see what it's all about
13:10Come on
13:20All right
13:21Let's try it again
13:24What are your names?
13:25And what are you doing here?
13:28We done told you and told you that
13:30Our names is Cartwrights
13:31And we're down here to
13:32We're down here to buy cattle
13:34Ants
13:36Go on, boy
13:42I told you not to lie to me
13:45We ain't lying
13:47Of course you ain't
13:49You just come down here to buy cows
13:52Texas cows
13:53Now, who in its right mind is going to believe
13:56Anybody would come down here to buy Texas longhorns?
13:59I ask you
13:59I told you
14:01We're going to take them back up to our ranch in Nevada
14:03And cross them with our own herd
14:05So as we'll have a heartier breed
14:07And you two are going to drive them cows
14:10Clean across West Texas
14:12Ride on up through a hunk of New Mexico
14:14All the way to the Nevada Territory
14:16Just the two of you?
14:18Yeah, that's what we said
14:21It's a fine lie, gents
14:23A fine lie
14:24It's the kind of noble-inspired lying
14:28That does credit to the folks that raised you
14:31But it don't wash out here
14:33Now, I'll tell you who you are
14:36You're them two low-down
14:39Gun-slinging, murdering
14:43Hydrophobic skunks of Slade Boys
14:45That was hired by old man McFadden
14:48To wipe out us Hadfields
14:49Because he couldn't do it himself
14:52Now, look, we never heard of the McFadden
14:55And we never heard of the Hadfields
14:57That's the truth
14:59Ain't they the living wonders, though?
15:03Ants
15:05Take them out and do what has to be done
15:06Come on
15:08Come on
15:09Come on
15:11Hey, hey
15:12What in time is going on here, anyway?
15:15What are you fixing to do to these fellas?
15:18Kill them
15:18They're the Slade Boys
15:20You can't do that
15:22You ain't sure they're the Slades
15:24Ain't sure
15:25Ain't you
15:26You see them, don't you?
15:27Sure I see them
15:28But I never see the Slades in my life
15:30And neither did you
15:31He's right there, Pa
15:32Yeah
15:33Twirly Boggs, he says he knows them
15:35He says he known them a long time back in Austin
15:37Oh
15:37Twirly?
15:38Yeah
15:38Fine
15:40Fetch them in here
15:41Let him identify them
15:42And then we'll kill them if it'll make you any happier
15:44Well, you see
15:45Twirly ain't exactly around right at this moment
15:47Oh
15:48Ants, take them out
15:49Come on
15:49Wait a minute, wait a minute
15:50Wait a minute
15:51Won't do no harm to wait till morning, will it?
15:53Where are we gonna keep them until morning?
15:55Pa, why don't we just stick them in Brown's jail
15:57And let him take responsibility for them?
15:59You leave me and my jail out of this
16:02Ants
16:02Take them out
16:04Wait a minute, wait a minute
16:05All right
16:06All right
16:08Just get somebody to help me get them over to jail, that's all
16:11Hey, Bannerman Brown
16:12On your way, on your way
16:14You make sure they're there
16:16Come on
16:18Or I might just take it into my head
16:20To vacate your office
16:23I'm getting sick of you
16:29Well, Joe, I got a funny feeling
16:31The law in this town is sure easily influenced
16:36Yeah, all you need is a navy coat
16:41Oh, uh
16:43You fellas comfortable and happy?
16:46I mean, uh
16:46Can I get you anything?
16:48A bottle of whiskey or a couple of steaks or something?
16:50When are you gonna let us out of here?
16:52Well, tomorrow morning
16:54One way or another
16:56What do you mean one way or another?
16:58Well, if I can find Twirly Boggs
17:01And he says you ain't the Slade Boys
17:02I'll
17:04I'll turn you loose
17:06Yeah, but
17:07What's gonna happen if you can't find Twirly Boggs?
17:11You get hung
17:23I just about got it figured out
17:26Yeah, what?
17:28This whole dang town is touched
17:31Oh, come on
17:32Who ever heard of a whole town being touched?
17:34A fella told me one time they got a weed down here
17:36And they call it loco weed
17:37When the horses and cows eat it
17:39They get wilder and all get out
17:41Oh, so? People don't eat weeds
17:43Yeah, but they eat beef, don't they?
17:45One of them critters gets all filled up on that there local weed
17:47It'd kind of salt the meat down, wouldn't it?
17:50Yeah, that makes sense
17:51Sure does
17:53Well, Joe, you don't reckon they're really gonna hang us, do you?
17:57I don't know if they're joking us
17:58They're sure pushing it pretty far
18:10Hang on
18:11Don't blab
18:13Blab?
18:14Oh, don't blab
18:15Rescue is at hand
18:16Signed, Black Alonzo
18:19The Red-Handed Avenger
18:27Who told?
18:30Even the kids have been affected with that loco beef in this town
18:37Sarah Brown
18:40Good evening, Miss Lorna Doon
18:42Even ladies
18:43I have fetched my tribute
18:45Yes, my ear
18:47I guess as much
18:48Me and the ladies of the town
18:49Have come to comfort them poor sinners
18:51In their final hours
18:53Yeah
18:53Well, the good book says
18:55We should forgive our enemies
18:57We are told to bring solace to the afflicted
19:01Even though they are a couple of low-down murdering skunks
19:04Yes, my ear
19:05Here's the keys
19:06You go in and console them low-down murdering skunks
19:10Them poor lost sheep
19:12Me, I got work to do
19:13Good night, ladies
19:29Oh, poor doomed prisoners
19:31It ain't too late
19:33Down on your knees
19:35As you face your awful fate
19:37Repent your crimes
19:39Before that trap is sprung
19:42And you
19:43Like a side of beef
19:45Are hung
19:48Poor soul
19:49If when you come up close
19:51And scooch again to the bars
19:52You could kind of rest your poor head on my shoulder
19:55It ain't fair hanging men
19:57When there ain't enough to go around as it is
20:00If when you don't mind
20:01I'd like to finish my little tribute
20:03Whilst there's time
20:05Ma'am
20:06Did you have many more of those?
20:08No, just ten or twelve more verses
20:10Well, I didn't have enough time
20:12To do a real good job on it
20:14That's a shame
20:17Now your poke is spent
20:19And you can take my word
20:21We'll remember the gent
20:22That went riding herd
20:24Of fighting and shooting
20:25Like desert rats
20:27To come to their end
20:28In Kiowa flats
20:31Now toll the bell
20:33Their souls are fled
20:35There's gonna be much more of this horse
20:37Shh
20:39Them two poor boys
20:41Are hanging dead
20:43Somewhere their kinfolk
20:45Will weep and pray
20:47This is worse than hanging
20:48For them
20:49That got heisted up
20:51Today
20:52Today
20:58Did you really like it?
21:00Ma'am
21:01I thought he was prime
21:02Just prime
21:04Well, it ain't often
21:05I get a chance
21:06To recite my tribute
21:07To the dear departed
21:08Before they're departed
21:10No, ma'am
21:11I don't reckon you do
21:12I suppose you'd like
21:13To have it buried with you
21:14Most folks do
21:20Oh, Clara Lou
21:21Stop that noise
21:22I can't help it
21:24There ain't enough men
21:25To go around
21:26And here they go
21:27Wasting two
21:28At the same time
21:30Amen
21:32It's a woman's place
21:33To endure, Clara Lou
21:35Well, I don't mind
21:37Enduring if I got
21:38A man to put up with
21:41Speaking of which
21:42Lizabelle, I notice
21:43You've been hanging on
21:44To a certain hand
21:45Half the live long night
21:47Clara Lou Kinsey
21:48Well, I can't help it
21:50She's just a selfish thing
21:52That's all she is
21:54Well, I never
21:55I guess a certain person
21:57Can hold another person's hand
21:58If they choose
21:59Well, a certain person
22:01Didn't have to choose
22:01The way another certain person
22:03Grabbed onto it
22:04I wouldn't act like
22:06Such a hussy
22:06If I was you
22:08Clara Lou Kinsey
22:09Well, at least
22:10I ain't a flippity gibbet
22:12Like some Lizabelle Jones
22:18Take loose from them
22:19Pesky females, boys

25:07Ain't you, fella?
25:08You just bet I am
25:10I'll bet you even know
25:11What we're doing here
25:12Don't you?
25:13Shucks
25:13Half the country knows
25:14Pa hired you
25:16To kill Ann's
25:16Hadfield
25:19And, uh
25:20Just why are we supposed to kill Ann's Hadfield?
25:23He's the fastest gun around here, ain't he?
25:26None of us McFathoms can hold a candle to him
25:29We gotta get rid of him
25:30Before we can kill the rest of the Hadfields
25:33Well, how come you gotta kill all them Hadfield?
25:37Don't you fellas know anything?
25:39It's a feud
25:41He's kinda dumb, ain't he?
25:43Why, you little...
25:45You just catch me and I'll holler for...
25:51Black Alonzo, you tell your pa that
25:53We hate to leave like this
25:55But we just ain't the Slade Brothers, you hear?
25:58You thank him for busting us out of jail, all right?
26:05Let's go
26:08Here, let's go
26:36Who's there?
26:44Watch out, boys! The Hatfield is riding again!
27:00What the heck are you doing?
27:02He's thirsty getting shot at.
27:11Hold your fire, they ain't shooting back.
27:14Come on, let's go collect the bodies.
27:33Hey, Slade boys!
27:35On your feet!
27:37Look, we're not just...
27:40Never mind.
27:41I'm fine.
27:41I'm fine.
28:09I'm fine.
28:27I want you two to listen and listen good.
28:30I hired you to do a job for me,
28:32and last night you tried to run out on your obligations.
28:35And I'm Mr. McFadden...
28:36Shut up and listen!
28:38I'm giving you fellas a fair choice.
28:45Now, you can take them guns and do the job you're supposed to.
28:59You got another choice.
29:06Name your poison, boys.
29:12That burn it, Mr. McFadden, don't you folks ever think any other use for a rope around here?
29:17First the Hatfields want to hang us for being the slave brothers.
29:19Now you want to do it because we ain't.
29:21I'm getting awful tired of hearing that same old tired lie.
29:26All right, boys, heist them up.
29:28Now, hold on just a minute.
29:30That burn it, Mr. McFadden, I'm getting sort of tired of being called a liar, too.
29:34We ain't the slave boys.
29:35All you got to do is ride into town and look up a fella named Twirly Boggs.
29:38Sheriff Brown told us that he knew the slave boys,
29:41and he can tell you right quick we ain't them.
29:42That's right.
29:44All right, boys.
29:45If it'll make you feel better disposed to do the work you was hired for,
29:49we'll all saddle up and ride into town.
29:52We'll look up, Twirly Boggs.
29:55Take the gun, boys.
30:09Take the gun, boys.
30:30Take the gun, boys.
31:01I know there wasn't a jail that could hold them slaves.
31:04I know them boys.
31:05I know them real good.
31:06I went to school with the Aunt Emmeline, see?
31:09I tell you, those boys would gouge your eyes out
31:13if they thought you looked at them in the wrong way.
31:15They would shoot you if they wanted a little target practice.
31:19Why, them boys...
31:22Who's buying, chants?
31:25Them boys, they had a man for breakfast every day of their life
31:29from the day that they put on long pants.
31:31Yes, sir.
31:31They had two on Sundays.
31:35Never touch me, though.
31:37No, sir.
31:38They like me.
31:38You see, they like me real good.
31:41But I...
31:42Oh, come on.
31:43Now, somebody stole my drink.
31:45Let's have a drink here.
31:46I tell you, them two slayed boys is two curly wolves.
31:51They have a big wind off on the prairie.
31:55They walk in blood.
31:57And where they breathe, they leave behind them ruin.
32:02Get ready for ruin right now, because here they come.
32:13Oh, hallelujah.
32:14They look mad.
32:15I'm getting out of here.
32:17No, wait a minute.
32:18Wait a minute.
32:18Wait a minute.
32:20Wait a minute.
32:20Help me save the whiskey.
32:22Wait a minute.
32:23Wait a minute.
32:24Wait a minute.
32:25Let's get it over.
32:43Come out of there, Boggs.
32:47Wait a minute.
32:48Wait a minute.
32:51It's very easy.
32:52Not go massacre in Twirly Boggs, now.
32:55I ain't never done no harm to nobody.
32:58Come here, Boggs.
32:59Yeah, I'm right here.
33:00I'm right here.
33:01Take a look at these two.
33:07Are they or ain't they the slayed boys?
33:10What?
33:13Are they or ain't they?
33:17You just go right ahead and answer, Mr. Boggs.
33:19Tell him the truth.
33:20Ain't nobody gonna hurt you.
33:21Key wrecked.
33:23Ain't nobody gonna hurt you.
33:26That's fine.
33:27Well, uh...
33:32You know, they're slayed boys, all right.
33:34I've seen a lot of them down in Austin.
33:36Hiya, boys.
33:38What's the matter, boys?
33:39Don't you know me?
33:40I'm Twirly Boggs.
33:42Remember?
33:43I used to go to school with your old Aunt Emberline.
33:47That doesn't.
33:49Take these and do the job you're supposed to.
33:51Or you won't be around to taste air come tomorrow morning.
33:57Thanks a lot, Mr. Boggs.
34:19Howdy, boys.
34:19Howdy.
34:20Howdy, Mr. Brown.
34:22Boy, anybody comes riding into this, they're gonna get slaughtered.
34:25Yeah, they got guns planted in the windows and up on the roofs, what not.
34:30Yeah.
34:31Well, maybe the Hatfields won't ride into town after all.
34:34They'll ride in all right.
34:36They got the news.
34:38Seems a terrible shame, don't it?
34:40All these folks killing each other.
34:44Not a few like this ever gets started, Sheriff.
34:46Over a hog.
34:49Over a hog?
34:51Yep, just a plain common ornery razor-bag hog.
34:56I'll tell you boys all about it, but first I got to get a little potation to loosen up the
35:02vocal cords.
35:03I'll tell you the whole sad tale.
35:05Come on.
35:07Hi, Jolly.
35:19You gentlemen care for some more sheep dip?
35:22I mean, beer?
35:24Yeah, give us a couple of beers.
35:26Yeah, well, as I thought to tell you out there, see these here Hatfields and McFadden's,
35:30they've been slaughtering one another, man and boy, for the last 30 years.
35:35Yeah, well, how did the hog get mixed up in this?
35:37Well, come on, sit down, boys, out there.
35:42See, Lance Hatfield, he was fattening him a razor-back shoat, you see, for his way to meet.
35:50Well, one morning, that shoat turned up missing.
35:54So, uh, so he, uh, got his gun and saddled up to what I was looking for, couldn't find her.
36:03But as he was passing by the McFadden's cabin, he, uh, pork-roasting.
36:08So he went in, of course, naturally, they asked him to stay to supper,
36:11and lo and behold, they brought on a great big mess of fresh roast pork.
36:17He knowed the Hatfield didn't have no pig, so he accused them of stealing his.
36:21And then the shooting started, and it's been going on ever since, for 30 years.
36:28Well, all that killing over one dad-burned old fattening hog.
36:32Now, look here, Mr. Brown, you were sheriff then.
36:34Now, how come you didn't stop it?
36:36Oh, shucks, I, I tried two, three times.
36:39It didn't do no good.
36:41See, nobody, nobody pays much attention to me.
36:45They, I don't know, maybe it's because I'm getting old,
36:48or maybe it's just, maybe it's because I'm getting a little cowardly.
36:53I don't know.
36:55You, uh, you boys don't look so darned old.
36:59You sure don't look like cowards.
37:02Well, sheriff, you're not suggesting that we do something about the feud.
37:06May after all, we're supposed to be the Slade brothers.
37:08Ah, shucks, I knowed you want gunmen the minute they lay eyes on you.
37:12I can tell a killer a mile off beside the twirlybugs
37:16is the biggest liar in the whole great state of Texas.
37:21And that, son, is covering a heap of territory.
37:24Yeah, well, if you knew, why didn't you say something?
37:26First, the McFadden's were going to hang us,
37:28and the Hatfield's are going to shoot us?
37:30Well, I, you know, I kind of thought maybe I was
37:34holding a hand I could draw to.
37:36But, oh, never mind.
37:39By the way, I, uh, snuck your horses out of the livery stable
37:43and tied them back in the alley, and your gun is in my office.
37:47Sheriff, we sure do appreciate this.
37:50Come on, little children, let's get out of here.
37:51Thanks an awful lot, Sheriff.
37:52It's all right, boys.
37:58Hey, Buck.
38:00Hey, Buck.
38:01Come here, boy.
38:03Where are you going to that ride?
38:04I'm going to kill me some Hatfields.
38:17Well, even the kids are thinking like that.
38:20That seems like a shame, doesn't it?
38:23Yeah.
38:24Well, let's go.
38:30Come on, who are you joking?
38:35That's what I like about us as a family, little Joe.
38:39Paul always taught us to never do nothing to others to be ashamed of.
38:43Well, I'd like to keep it like that.
38:46I just wonder if there's anything we can do, like B. Batterman Brown said.
38:51Well, I don't know, but let's try.
38:53Come on.
38:57You boys change your minds about going?
39:01Well, sir, you might say we had our minds changed for us.
39:07I don't know what we're going to do, but whatever it is, I think we better get started.
39:12Hey, listen.
39:12You got any ideas, Sheriff?
39:13Yeah.
39:14Got one.
39:16Lorna Dune Mayberry.
39:21Lorna Dune Mayberry.
39:24See, my grandpappy always told me, he always says, he says, son, you get the women on your
39:30side, and the battle's won.
39:48Excuse me, ma'am.
39:50Me and my little brother are in a pack of trouble, and, well...
39:54Come on.
39:55Tell me what it's all about.
39:58Come on.
40:01Well, first of all, ma'am, there's just about to be a bunch of killing out there in that
40:05street.
40:06There's always killing in that street.
40:09Well, Jessam, and that seems to me like it's a terrible waste.
40:12I mean, there not being enough men to go around for all you ladies like it is.
40:16There ain't a woman living can keep men from fighting.
40:20Well, ma'am, I beg to differ with you.
40:23You see, sometimes womenfolk can sort of get around menfolk in little ways, and I figured
40:29maybe if you ladies tried right hard, you might be able to get around these.
40:36You ain't as dumb as you look.
40:40What do you want me to do, hmm?
40:42Well, ma'am, here's our plan.
40:45We figured if you...
40:56All right, hold your fire, ma'am.
41:00Hold it, get that wagon!
41:05Hold your fire.
41:10Hold it.
41:15Hold it.
41:31Florida, Dune, Mayberry!
41:33Dang nabbit!
41:34You get them women off of this street!
41:36We're staying right here!
41:39Florida, Dune!
41:42Have you lost what few wits you ever had?
41:45I got my wits, Jubal Hotfield, and that's more than you can say!
41:53Us women got a few things to tell you.
41:56And you can start your fighting after you hear this out!
42:00All right, ladies.
42:02Well, they gotta listen to you.
42:03I got something to say.
42:05You all know me.
42:06I'm Wheezy McFadden.
42:08I'm Ann's Alonzo McFadden.
42:10He's over there behind them barrels and things with the rest of the McFaddens.
42:14Alonzo, I want you to listen to me.
42:17I can't have no more chilling.
42:19But I ain't gonna cook for you, nor wash for you, nor do anything a wife's bound to do for
42:24her man,
42:25till you put down that gun and come out of there.
42:28Well, Alonzo, I mean it!
42:31I'm Susan Hatfield.
42:33I guess you all know who I'm talking to.
42:36What Wheezy says goes for me, too, Jubal.
42:40I won't be the kind of wife I should, till you stop this fighting.
42:45I'm talking to you, Ann's Hatfield.
42:47You heard your ma talk, and you heard my ma.
42:51You're on one side, and I'm on the other.
42:53Here I am, Ann's.
42:55But don't come after me with a gun in your hand.
43:10Boy, you get back here!
43:13You hear me?
43:22You men want to hear some more?
43:30Just a dang minute!
43:36What tarnation's going on here?
43:39Hey!
43:41Confound it!
43:41Get back here!
43:47This ain't no way to run a future!
43:59And it was such a nice day for her, too.
44:09Hatfield,
44:10I'll buy a drink.
44:12A drink?
44:18All right.
44:20I'll accept your offer.
44:22And I'll buy another.
44:24Fair enough.
44:44Whiskey!
44:45Whiskey!
44:46Yes, sir.
45:00Lorna, that was a mighty fine thing you just done.
45:06Lorna, 15 years ago,
45:08you said to me that if I ever...
45:13If...
45:26Hey, little Joe.
45:28Little Joe.
45:30I think we done hung around here long enough.
45:32We better be just riding on and attending our business,
45:34not buying cattle.
45:35Oh, horse, take it easy.
45:37A guy has to have a little chance to relax.
45:39Boys!
45:40Here's your hats,
45:41and here's your own guns.
45:43Now take an old man's advice,
45:45and get riding.
45:46There you are, son.
45:47Yeah, well, Sheriff,
45:47we were just beginning to enjoy this town.
45:50Yeah, but don't forget
45:50the silly heap of folks around here
45:52that still think through the Slade boys.
45:55Now, word to the wise.
45:58Yes.
46:14You've had plenty for today, little Joe.
46:16Come on.
46:21Give a hat, Phil.
46:23You put a lock.
46:27Alonzo McFadden,
46:29you're a good old sock.
46:33Thank you, Jubal.
46:34The best.
46:36Except for one thing.
46:39What did I do wrong, Jubal?
46:41Bringing in them hired killers
46:43to settle a dispute
46:45between two Texas gentlemen.
46:48I'm ashamed of you.
46:51Jubal,
46:52I'm a dirty dog.
46:57Oh, now,
46:58don't take on.
47:00I'm a dirty dog.
47:04Jubal,
47:05this has got to be wiped out
47:07in blood.
47:11All right.
47:13Whose blood?
47:16Which do you suppose?
47:17Those two dirty,
47:20miserable killers
47:21that came along
47:22into our peaceful
47:23little community
47:24trying to stir up trouble
47:25between us two
47:26peace-loving families.
47:29That's what I like
47:30about you, Alonzo.
47:32You think the same as me.
47:35Let's go round up
47:37a couple of the boys.
47:39Just in case.
47:53How far is it
47:54to Kiowa Flats?
47:57Just a couple of miles
47:59back down the road.
48:12You don't suppose that...
48:15I think so.
48:18Cole,
48:19let's get out of here.
48:20Let's go.
48:21Let's go.
48:21Let's go.
48:22Let's go.
48:23Let's go.
48:24Let's go.
48:26Let's go.
48:26Let's go.
48:28Let's go.
48:44You don't regulate?
48:47I think so.
49:06I think so.
49:32I think so.
