00:09:43,060 --> 00:09:46,977
Susan's gone.
182
00:09:47,021 --> 00:09:49,240
In the morning...
183
00:09:49,284 --> 00:09:51,112
We'll bury her
in the morning.
184
00:09:59,337 --> 00:10:02,210
John?
185
00:10:02,253 --> 00:10:04,952
John, I-I know
how hard it is for you,
186
00:10:04,995 --> 00:10:06,475
but we're moving on.
187
00:10:06,518 --> 00:10:08,651
You've got to come.
188
00:10:08,695 --> 00:10:10,305
I can't, Teck.
189
00:10:10,348 --> 00:10:12,481
I can't leave her
to the prairie.
190
00:10:12,524 --> 00:10:15,092
I was able to give her
little enough in her lifetime.
191
00:10:15,136 --> 00:10:17,921
There's not much
I can do for her now, but...
192
00:10:17,965 --> 00:10:20,532
I want to mark her grave
so that it won't be forgotten,
193
00:10:20,576 --> 00:10:23,971
so people who pass
on their way to Oregon,
194
00:10:24,014 --> 00:10:25,581
California,
195
00:10:25,625 --> 00:10:29,324
will know that Susan Hail
is buried here.
196
00:10:29,367 --> 00:10:33,067
They'll know, John.
You marked it real fine.
197
00:10:33,110 --> 00:10:35,069
No, it won't hold up.
198
00:10:35,112 --> 00:10:39,856
I want a stone, a real headstone
with her name carved in it.
199
00:10:39,900 --> 00:10:42,250
I want it to last
a hundred years.
200
00:10:42,293 --> 00:10:44,426
A headstone?
Where'll you get it?
201
00:10:44,469 --> 00:10:45,819
Saint Joseph.
202
00:10:45,862 --> 00:10:47,385
Three hundred miles
from here?
203
00:10:47,429 --> 00:10:48,691
Oh, that's foolishness.
204
00:10:48,735 --> 00:10:51,694
You know we can't
turn back now.
205
00:10:51,738 --> 00:10:55,045
You can't turn back,
but I can.
206
00:10:55,089 --> 00:10:57,874
Without Susan,
there's no point in going on.
207
00:10:57,918 --> 00:10:59,528
And suppose you do go back.
208
00:10:59,571 --> 00:11:00,964
How are you going
to bring a headstone
209
00:11:01,008 --> 00:11:03,793
clear back here
without a wagon?
210
00:11:03,837 --> 00:11:06,056
I don't know,
but I'll find a way.
211
00:11:06,100 --> 00:11:07,275
Good-bye, Teck.
212
00:11:07,318 --> 00:11:09,625
Tell Millie
good-bye for me.
213
00:11:09,669 --> 00:11:11,105
Thanks for everything.
214
00:11:37,609 --> 00:11:39,263
Mr. Rand?
215
00:11:46,314 --> 00:11:47,750
Yeah? What is it?
216
00:11:47,794 --> 00:11:49,926
John Hail.
Remember me?
217
00:11:54,757 --> 00:11:57,107
Hmm.
218
00:12:00,197 --> 00:12:04,071
Oh, yeah.
Susan O. Hail,
219
00:12:04,114 --> 00:12:05,725
proper dates,
220
00:12:05,768 --> 00:12:07,857
no declaration,
simple headstone.
221
00:12:07,901 --> 00:12:09,990
You said it'd be ready
in a week.
222
00:12:10,033 --> 00:12:12,340
Yeah. I took
the last cut on it yesterday.
223
00:12:12,383 --> 00:12:14,908
Ought to be around here
somewhere.
224
00:12:14,951 --> 00:12:18,259
You have to excuse me.
I'm just finishing my dinner.
225
00:12:18,302 --> 00:12:20,783
Oh, now I remember.
226
00:12:20,827 --> 00:12:23,090
You wanted it crated up.
227
00:12:23,133 --> 00:12:24,831
Why you wanted it covered up
228
00:12:24,874 --> 00:12:27,050
for the trip the cemetery
I'll never know.
229
00:12:27,094 --> 00:12:29,052
I'm not taking it
to the cemetery.
230
00:12:29,096 --> 00:12:30,532
Eh?
231
00:12:30,575 --> 00:12:33,013
My wife isn't buried here
in St. Joe.
232
00:12:33,056 --> 00:12:34,405
Atchison?
233
00:12:34,449 --> 00:12:35,798
No, she's out
on the prairie,
234
00:12:35,842 --> 00:12:37,191
about three hundred miles
from here.
235
00:12:37,234 --> 00:12:39,410
We were on our way
to California.
236
00:12:39,454 --> 00:12:41,978
How you going to pack
that heavy tombstone
237
00:12:42,022 --> 00:12:43,806
three hundred miles?
238
00:12:43,850 --> 00:12:45,155
I sold my horse.
239
00:12:45,199 --> 00:12:47,070
Figured I'd hire a freighter
to haul it for me,
240
00:12:47,114 --> 00:12:49,594
but so far, I haven't found
anyone willing to take it.
241
00:12:49,638 --> 00:12:51,945
Just wait until
this rush is over.
242
00:12:51,988 --> 00:12:53,163
When spring comes,
243
00:12:53,207 --> 00:12:55,687
the freighters will
be hungry for cargo.
244
00:12:55,731 --> 00:12:57,341
If I wait till spring,
I'll never be able
245
00:12:57,385 --> 00:12:58,690
to find her grave.
246
00:12:58,734 --> 00:13:02,042
I've got to go now.
247
00:13:02,085 --> 00:13:03,608
Tell you what I'll do.
248
00:13:03,652 --> 00:13:05,175
I don't know
if it'll do much good,
249
00:13:05,219 --> 00:13:08,135
but I'll throw in
this old wheelbarrow.
250
00:13:08,178 --> 00:13:10,180
Maybe get you
as far the river,
251
00:13:10,224 --> 00:13:12,052
then you're really going
to be in trouble.
252
00:13:12,095 --> 00:13:14,184
A cloudburst
washed out that ferry
253
00:13:14,228 --> 00:13:15,403
about ten days ago.
254
00:13:15,446 --> 00:13:17,144
Yeah, I know.
I saw it when I came here.
255
00:13:17,187 --> 00:13:19,799
You're welcome to it
if you can use it.
256
00:13:19,842 --> 00:13:22,540
Thanks very much, Mr. Rand.
That's very kind of you.
257
00:13:22,584 --> 00:13:25,543
Oh, no thanks to me, but...
258
00:13:25,587 --> 00:13:28,503
Won't do you much good,
but maybe it'll be better
259
00:13:28,546 --> 00:13:30,113
than nothing.
260
00:13:32,202 --> 00:13:34,117
[ grunts ]
261
00:13:37,294 --> 00:13:39,035
And Mr. Hail?Yeah?
262
00:13:39,079 --> 00:13:41,255
I hope you make it.
263
00:13:41,298 --> 00:13:43,474
Don't worry.
I'll make it.
264
00:14:02,145 --> 00:14:04,887
Hey, did you see that?Yeah.
265
00:14:04,931 --> 00:14:06,062
He's pushing a wheelbarrow.
266
00:14:06,106 --> 00:14:08,108
That weren't no wheelbarrow.
267
00:14:08,151 --> 00:14:09,370
No?No.
268
00:14:09,413 --> 00:14:11,502
His wagon fell in a river
and shrunk.
269
00:14:11,546 --> 00:14:15,028
[ both laugh ]
270
00:15:13,869 --> 00:15:16,393
I don't believe it.
271
00:15:16,437 --> 00:15:19,570
Hey, Lance!
Come look.
272
00:15:32,279 --> 00:15:33,628
It's the wheelbarrow man.
273
00:15:33,671 --> 00:15:35,412
Well, I'll be.
274
00:15:35,456 --> 00:15:37,762
How do you suppose
he caught up with us?
275
00:15:37,806 --> 00:15:40,983
Been pushing that thing
day and night, I'd say.
276
00:15:41,027 --> 00:15:42,724
Maybe he don't
insist on a siesta
277
00:15:42,767 --> 00:15:45,335
every afternoon either.
278
00:15:45,379 --> 00:15:47,294
Wonder where he's going.
279
00:15:47,337 --> 00:15:48,512
I don't know,
280
00:15:48,556 --> 00:15:50,210
but I'll tell you
where he ain't going.
281
00:15:50,253 --> 00:15:51,994
He ain't going
across that river.
282
00:15:52,038 --> 00:15:53,691
Don't be too sure of that.
283
00:15:53,735 --> 00:15:56,042
He's a mighty
determined-looking man.
284
00:17:01,281 --> 00:17:03,022
What's he doing now?
285
00:17:03,065 --> 00:17:05,546
He's going back
after the wheelbarrow.
286
00:17:24,217 --> 00:17:26,306
It don't make
much sense to me.
287
00:17:26,349 --> 00:17:28,743
He'd be better off
leaving it behind.
288
00:17:28,786 --> 00:17:30,701
No, he's packing
something in it.
289
00:17:37,491 --> 00:17:39,188
That crate, see?
290
00:17:42,757 --> 00:17:44,889
I wonder what's inside.
291
00:17:48,850 --> 00:17:51,722
Must be something
valuable, huh?
292
00:18:21,970 --> 00:18:23,102
Howdy, friend.
293
00:18:23,145 --> 00:18:24,320
Howdy.
294
00:18:24,364 --> 00:18:26,235
You're going West
the hard way, ain't you?
295
00:18:26,279 --> 00:18:28,194
Well, it isn't
the easiest way.
296
00:18:28,237 --> 00:18:32,241
Maybe we can
give you a lift.
297
00:18:32,285 --> 00:18:34,156
You passed me on the trail
ten days ago.
298
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:35,679
You didn't offer me
a lift then.
299
00:18:35,723 --> 00:18:37,464
We didn't know
you was coming this far,
300
00:18:37,507 --> 00:18:39,161
what, with
the wheelbarrow and all.
301
00:18:39,205 --> 00:18:41,772
Uh, what are you
packing, mister?
302
00:18:41,816 --> 00:18:43,687
You wouldn't believe me
if I told you.
303
00:18:43,731 --> 00:18:46,647
Go ahead.
304
00:18:46,690 --> 00:18:48,127
My wife's buried
on the prairie.
305
00:18:48,170 --> 00:18:50,303
I'm taking a headstone
for her grave.
306
00:18:54,002 --> 00:18:55,351
I know it sounds
far-fetched.
307
00:18:57,048 --> 00:18:59,660
I would appreciate a lift.
308
00:18:59,703 --> 00:19:00,704
We'll help you.
309
00:19:03,229 --> 00:19:04,795
Just show me
where you want this.
310
00:19:20,637 --> 00:19:22,204
Think he's telling
the truth?
311
00:19:22,248 --> 00:19:24,989
I don't know.
It's a cock-eyed story.
312
00:19:25,033 --> 00:19:26,774
Almost sounds
convincing, though.
313
00:19:26,817 --> 00:19:29,080
Naw. He hovers
over that crate
314
00:19:29,124 --> 00:19:30,299
like a mother hen.
315
00:19:30,343 --> 00:19:32,997
Take my word for it.
It ain't no tombstone.
316
00:19:33,041 --> 00:19:35,870
What is it then?
317
00:19:35,913 --> 00:19:37,698
Let's find out.No, wait.
318
00:19:44,444 --> 00:19:48,274
We'll make our move at daybreak.
Maybe he's a sound sleeper.
319
00:19:48,317 --> 00:19:51,190
If he is, it'll save him
a busted head.
320
00:19:52,756 --> 00:19:54,584
[ wheels turning ]
321
00:19:57,718 --> 00:19:59,285
Hey!
322
00:20:05,291 --> 00:20:06,944
Whoa!
323
00:20:06,988 --> 00:20:08,903
Where do you think
you're going with my gear?
324
00:20:20,131 --> 00:20:22,177
Now, we weren't
going anywhere.
325
00:20:39,281 --> 00:20:41,022
Let's get out of here.
326
00:20:52,686 --> 00:20:54,165
Yah! Giddyup!
327
00:21:12,358 --> 00:21:14,011
Here, let me have it.
328
00:21:20,801 --> 00:21:22,237
Something valuable, huh?
329
00:21:22,281 --> 00:21:24,500
I told you I thought
he was telling the truth!
330
00:21:24,544 --> 00:21:26,241
You did, huh?
331
00:21:26,285 --> 00:21:28,939
Whose idea was it
to run out on him this morning?
332
00:21:28,983 --> 00:21:30,201
You numbskull!
333
00:21:30,245 --> 00:21:32,813
Yeah? Well, you're
a penny-brained idiot!

00:21:33,814 --> 00:21:35,206
[ groans ]
335
00:21:47,175 --> 00:21:49,046
Easy there, young fella.
336
00:21:49,090 --> 00:21:50,352
What are you
doing out here?
337
00:21:50,396 --> 00:21:52,441
They took
Susan's headstone.
338
00:21:56,271 --> 00:21:57,359
Is that your wagon, mister?
339
00:21:57,403 --> 00:21:59,230
Sure is.Which way you going?
340
00:21:59,274 --> 00:22:01,189
East, west. Don't make
any difference to me.
341
00:22:01,232 --> 00:22:03,234
I'm a scavenger,
live off the pickings
342
00:22:03,278 --> 00:22:04,932
of the prairie,
you might say.
343
00:22:04,975 --> 00:22:06,499
Would you mind
taking me west?
344
00:22:06,542 --> 00:22:08,109
Sure thing.
345
00:22:08,152 --> 00:22:09,328
What was that
you were saying?
346
00:22:09,371 --> 00:22:11,199
Somebody stole what?
347
00:22:21,905 --> 00:22:25,387
Once I got to Oregon,
it was kind of letdown.
348
00:22:25,431 --> 00:22:28,042
Couldn't keep my mind
on my farming.
349
00:22:28,085 --> 00:22:29,435
Then it came to me.
350
00:22:29,478 --> 00:22:31,088
When I headed West,
351
00:22:31,132 --> 00:22:33,482
it wasn't Oregon
I was going for,
352
00:22:33,526 --> 00:22:35,789
it was the going itself.
353
00:22:35,832 --> 00:22:38,487

ever since.

Wait a minute.

Find anything?

00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,467
It's my wheelbarrow, all right,
but no sign of the stone.
358
00:23:01,510 --> 00:23:02,946
It could be anywhere.
359
00:23:02,990 --> 00:23:04,818
That's what I figured.
360
00:23:04,861 --> 00:23:06,733
Young fella,
it's going to take a miracle
361
00:23:06,776 --> 00:23:08,343
to find that headstone.
362
00:23:25,099 --> 00:23:26,796
At first, Susan,
I lost all heart
363
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,537
for going to California,
364
00:23:28,581 --> 00:23:30,234
but it's what
we wanted together,
365
00:23:30,278 --> 00:23:33,107
what we came this far for,
366
00:23:33,150 --> 00:23:35,370
so I'm going on.
367
00:23:36,632 --> 00:23:41,289
It won't be hard to find you
when I come this way again.
368
00:23:41,332 --> 00:23:43,596
You got a fine-looking
headstone.
369
00:23:46,120 --> 00:23:47,600
Good-bye, Susan.
370
00:23:57,958 --> 00:23:59,916
John Hail did continue
to California
371
00:23:59,960 --> 00:24:02,223
and spent the remainder
of his days there.
372
00:24:02,266 --> 00:24:05,139
The headstone that he carted
to the side of his wife's grave
373
00:24:05,182 --> 00:24:08,055
northwest of Kenesaw,
Adams County, Nebraska,
374
00:24:08,098 --> 00:24:09,535
no longer exists.
375
00:24:09,578 --> 00:24:12,668
It was eroded by wind,
charred by prairie fires,
376
00:24:12,712 --> 00:24:15,584
and finally, carried away
by souvenir hunters,
377
00:24:15,628 --> 00:24:17,847
but Susan Hail's final
resting place
378
00:24:17,891 --> 00:24:20,676
has been fenced
and re-marked.
379
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,504
And this is the way
it looks today.
380
00:24:22,548 --> 00:24:24,463
A tribute to her memory
381
00:24:24,506 --> 00:24:27,596
and to the heroic efforts
of John Hail.
