[Music]

[Applause]

The immortal pen of James Fenomore

Cooper

brings you thrilling tales of

excitement.

Blazing action on the early American

frontier.

[Music]

Stirring adventures filled with the

daring and courage of Hawkeye.

First of the long rifles and his blood

brother Ching Nutachk. Last of the

Moheakans

[Music]

chief in canoe is Tuscarora. Well, looks

like he's hurt.

[Music]

Look,

brave is Tusora, too.

Shoot it, chief.

[Music]

[Music]

Chingkok

Hawkeye.

Me, Tawand Duma, chief of Tuscarora.

You have trouble with your braves.

Tawand Duma make long journey.

When I get back to my people,

I find I find

We better get him out of here before

that Tuscarora comes back with some of

his friends.

[Music]

How is he, Chief? Not bad. Hurt. Good.

You find Tuscaror sign? Yeah, some new

and some old. But I found something else

kind of interesting. Come on. Well,

he'll be all right for a minute.

[Music]

It's paleface fire. Black smoke from

Greenwood. Indian not build fire like

that. Has white men. All right. And

they're not very good woodsmen giving

away their position like that. Pale face

not wise with Tuserora warriors in

forest if they see smoke. That's what I

was thinking.

You think Ta and Duma will sleep for a

while?

Chiefs sleep like papoose.

[Music]

New settlers,

not half scout, not wise, rifles not

ready. If Tuscarora strike

like pigeon in claw of eagle,

they've got to learn to take care of

themselves.

We teach.

Yeah, we'd be doing them a favor.

[Music]

Hey, Marty.

Throw a little more wood on the fire,

will you? Hi, Gab.

[Music]

See, that wet stuff will burn if the

fire's hot enough.

Not as snug as shipboard, but when a man

gets to be a land lover, he's got to

give up a lot of things.

Say, Kevin, when are you going to let us

pick out our homestead? Oh, there's

plenty of time for that. Maybe tomorrow

morning.

It's nice to have a home at last.

Indian

guns. Watch the body parties, Monty.

Take the horses.

Don't stand there, man. Get a rifle.

Who are you? What do you want? What do

you got? Nothing, man. Nothing. The

Indians have it all.

You're not move.

Just like I thought. You Indians can't

even keep your bargain. Not talk. Who's

the leader of this group? Me. Captain

Horatio Watkins.

former master of the finest square

rigger that ever sailed the Atlantic.

Well, I want to talk to you.

Go to camp.

Now, Mr. Whatever your name is, perhaps

you'll be good enough to tell me what

all this is about. Glad to. You're

sitting here in the wilderness,

completely unprepared. We just proved to

you that two men could take over your

whole camp. What chance do you think

you'd have with a Tuscarora war party?

What business is that of yours, mister?

We're not afraid of any Indians. Well,

maybe you ought to be. What for? We're

under the protection of Tawanduma

himself, chief of the Tuscaroras. Now,

who are you? I'm Hawkeye. This is

Chingich.

Tell me more about this deal you've got

with Chief Tawanduma. Hi, Mr. Hawkeye.

I'd be glad to tell you. And in a few

words, too. We bought and paid for this

whole valley.

It cost us practically everything we

had, but we figured it was worth it. All

this without spilling a single drop of

blood. A home and peace with the

Indians. We're friends with them.

When did you last see Chief Talanduma?

Oh, it must have been five or six days

ago now. We're expecting him and the

Tuscaroras to come calling on us and

smoke a peace pipe any day.

[Music]

Tuscaror arrow. War feathers. War

feathers.

Other feather mean they want pow-wow.

What does he mean pow-wow? It means they

want to talk to you. But they're our

friends. Why an arrow with war feathers?

I certainly don't understand this.

Let's talk to him.

[Music]

[Music]

Now what happens? The Tusceroras will

meet with us.

Now remember, no matter what they say or

do, stay peaceful. Bye.

Welcome aboard. What news do you bring

for my good friend Tawwenduma?

Tawanduma false chief. Why? What's

happened? Where is Tawwenduma?

What does long rifle do here? Inani, you

wear the feathers of a chief. Inani is

chief of Tuscarora tribe. You on

Tuscarora hunting grounds. When sun

sleeps for night,

you be gone.

We bought this land fair and square from

Tawand Duma. I've got the papers and

we're going to stay. Hail face lie.

[Music]

We bought and paid for this land.

What'll I do?

You heard him, Kanani. I always thought

Tuscaroras were men of their word.

Tuscarora make no treaty with Pelves.

Get nothing. How can that be? I paid Ta

and Duma myself. Towand do a Vad tribe

get nothing. When moon rises,

you'll be gone.

Don't look like things is working out,

Captain. It certainly doesn't. Not by a

long sight.

That fell says he's chief of the tribe

and our agreement with Tawwand Duma

means nothing.

What do you reckon's going on? Well, if

Tawwand Duma was honest about the deal

he made with you, the only thing we can

do is try to get him back in again as

chief of the Tusceroras.

With Genani figuring on attacking before

nightfall, that's a that's kind of a big

chart to swallow, isn't it, Mr. Hawkeye?

Kind of.

[Music]

Well, what are you all staring at me

that way for? You heard what the fella

said. Sure we did, Captain. And that's

just it. What are we supposed to do now?

I don't know what you're all getting the

wind up about. You all heard the fella

say he was going to get Tawand Duma back

in as chief. And we heard that engine's

warning, too.

I say if we know what's good for us,

we'll get out of here. Get out fast

while we still got our scalps. Now, hold

on a minute there. When you all signed

aboard with me, it was agreed that I was

to be captain of this here settler ship.

And you agreed that every man jack of us

had the right to talk up when it came to

the side and what course we was going to

sail. So I did. But we didn't come to

this valley

just to turn around and leave it the

moment we dropped anchor. No, we didn't.

We came here because we thought we'd

bought peace with the engines. But we

got no peace. The engines took our money

and now they want our scalps. There's

other valleys.

I say leave.

Maybe what Marty is asking us to do is

right.

Maybe we should get out.

But we came out here to find a home for

ourselves and our children. A port where

we could feel we were free men. This

valley is the home we found. The home we

bought and paid for.

And I don't got into being scared out of

it by any pack of Indians. Then you

figure we should stay. Take a chance on

this Hawkeye fella to get us out of this

fix.

Well, the way I see it, a home ain't

worth much that ain't worth fighting

for.

And I got an idea Hawkeyee's going to

find Tal and Duma.

[Music]

[Music]

Changing cookusura

[Music]

arrow

feathers mean war arrow.

[Music]

Look,

tracks of two different braves.

Tawenduma stood there. Chief tracks

stopped there. Brave tracks get deeper.

Mean they carry. But why they take him?

Doesn't make any sense. If they wanted

to kill him, they would have done it

here.

They're not headed for the Tuscerora

camp.

[Music]

They try to go fast.

There's three sets of moccasin prints

now. Tawendum is on his feet.

Make harder to catch.

[Music]

You have Taland Duma. Good. Look now,

great Taanduma,

mighty chief of Tuscarora. H can Anani

speak truth? Ta and Duma is chief. No

true chief of tuscarora sell valley to

pelves. Taw and duma not do so alone.

Wise men of tribe agree. Ah old fools.

Kinanani no want pale here. Kanani only

want to be chief. That is why he lied to

tribe about me. Why he tried to kill me

before I can tell council of treaty and

make payment to tribe. Where to duma

hide money? Ta and Duma tell only to

council. As chief

have no use for dead chief. You kill me.

You will die. After you tell where you

hide treasure Paleface gave you. Bring

prisoner.

It's only 2 or 3 hours till sunset. The

settlers will be wiped out by the

Tuscaroras.

You follow Tawwanduma. Leave a clear

path that I can follow fast.

I'll go back to the camp. I'll get the

settlers to move out of the valley. When

they're safe, I'll come back and we'll

try to rescue Tawand Duma.

[Music]

She welcome aboard, Mr. Hawkeye,

we've got the situation well in hand.

You've got nothing but trouble, Captain.

Oh, no. I wouldn't say that. By the way,

you've got this camp set up, it would

take the Tuscaroras about 10 minutes to

wipe you out. You've got about an hour

and a half to break camp and get started

out of this valley. If you want to save

your scalps, you'll do as I tell you and

start now.

We've taken a vote on this, Mr. Hawkeye.

We've bought this land. It belongs to us

and we're not going to give it up.

Take Tawand Duma into Tibi. Kinani will

get tribe. Wipe out settlers. Then we'll

make Tawand Duma talk.

[Music]

Oh Heat. Heat.

[Music]

[Music]

You'd better go back a ways and keep an

eye out for the Tusceroras.

[Music]

[Music]

So, you've got him. Our troubles are

over then. Nope. We've still got a long

ways to go and the Tusceroras are right

behind us. But we've already plotted the

course. All Taw and Duma has to do is to

tell them the truth when they get here

and then take over as chief again. It's

not that simple. Why not? Kanani has

convinced the Tuscaroras that Tawwanduma

is a cheat not worthy to be chief. They

won't take his word for anything.

Hawkeye right. Blood of braves too hot.

Won't listen. They take scalp of all

pale face and of Tawendumar.

Then we're just as badly off as we were

before. Not if we can prove to the tribe

what really happened.

[Music]

Kanani and war party come. No time to

prove anything now. We'll all lose our

scouts for certain. Don't take any bets

on that, Captain. We've still got a

fighting chance.

[Music]

Settlers not move. Get warriors circle

camp. Cananani give signal for attack.

Settlers, fools.

We take scalp tribe from valley

and tuscarora be powerful tribe. I

wouldn't be too sure about that if I

were you. Don't make any false moves.

Cananani.

Hawkeye fool too. Tuscarora braves all

around. Hawkeye scalp soon hang from

Kanani belt. I was thinking we might

make a kind of a trade. Kinani no

trades.

Well, I've got something I think you'd

be interested in. What trade Hawkeye

won't make? Tawwand Duma will take you

to the treasure. You can have it all for

yourself. In return, we want a chance

for Tawwand Duma to tell a Tuscerora his

side of the story.

We make trade. Good. But Kenani want

trusted braves with him.

All right, we'll do it your way, Kenani.

[Music]

Take away stone.

[Music]

satisfied now?

Kanani satisfied. Good. Then you can

call off your warriors. Let Tawwand Duma

tell about the deal he made with the

settlers. Taand Duma, no talk. But you

gave us your word, Kanani. A true

Tuscarora chief never breaks his word.

Only rabbit like Taanduma keep word.

Chief must be strong. That why Tawand

Duma will die. Why? Kinani will be

chief. Sure, because you lied to the

tribe. If you let Tawand Duma tell his

story, they'd know what a great

honorable chief he is. And that Kanani

speaks with a fork tongue of a serpent.

Tribe will never know. You're wrong

about that, Kanani, because you've just

told them everything I want them to

know.

All right, Jingook.

[Music]

I think it's about time that Kanani

found out just what he walked into.

[Music]

You see, Kanani, I had Chingichk bring

the tribe here to learn for themselves.

Seemed the only way to bring out the

truth.

I figure you and your tribe know what to

do with them without any help from us.

[Music]

Council of Tuscarora has met. We have

come to tell you decision. Well, well,

that's fine. I'm very glad to hear it.

But, uh, well, would you mind telling us

what it is? Tuscarora tribe will honor

agreement with Paleface.

We all live in Valley in peace.

Chief, I don't know what to say except

maybe. Thanks.

Wouldn't care a ship aboard with us,

would you, mateies? We could certainly

use a couple of good hands like you. No,

I reckon not, Captain. No, cannot paddle

canoe on dry land. Hawkeye and me want

to find new rivers, new lakes. Only way

to be happy.

Reckon I understand what you mean,

mateies.

All I can say for everything you've done

for us is may you have happy sailing

wherever you go.

[Music]

Join us again at this same time next

week for another of James Fenomore

Cooper's gripping tales of the early

American frontier. Another exciting

adventure of Hawkeye and his blood

brother Chinguchk,

last of the Moheakans.

[Music]

Heat.

Heat.

[Music]

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

The immortal pen of James Fenomore

Cooper

brings you thrilling tales of

excitement,

blazing action on the early American

frontier,

stirring adventures filled with the

daring and courage of Hawkeye. I first

of the long rifles and his blood brother

Ching Nutk, last of the Moheakans.

[Music]

Guess those rumors that Colonel Sanford

heard about the tribes uniting for war

aren't just rumors.

Noble chief of the Ottawa Chipawa

Tuscarora

I, Kubaka, Chief of the Synica, bid you

welcome to our village. We gather here

in sacred cause

to again unite our tribes as one mighty

Iricorn nation and set our tomahawks

against white invader.

[Applause]

Together we will sweep him off land and

drive him into sea. Kubaka speaks words

filled with the impatience of the young.

He is a brave and noble warrior who

laughs at death.

But has he the cunning and the wisdom to

lead us into battle against the white

man? Kubako would never dare claim

wisdom and cunning of the great chief

who will lead our braves into battle.

It is prophecy of Gichim Manatu, great

god of our people, that one day a great

chief will return from happy hunting

ground to inspire our braves to glorious

victory over white man. Power

approaches. The great chief returns to

us and we will follow him to victory

over our enemies.

Of what great chief do you speak? Of the

one and only leader of the Iricqua

nation.

Pontiac's

been dead for non two years. You ask me

that Kabakas been chomping on too many

elderberries. Indians believe dead

warrior can come back.

Let's get moving. We'll get this bit of

information back where it'll do some

good.

It's incredible. Do you believe it,

Hawkeye? Well, if I did, I'd believe in

wood nymphs, too. They're eight

prettier. And what about you,

Changiscope? You should know about these

things. Nobody can come back from happy

hunting ground. But Indian is

superstitious. Can be made to believe. I

quite agree with you. The whole thing's

preposterous. coming back from the dead.

We know it and you know it, Colonel

Sanford, those Indian tribes are getting

all steamed up. Doesn't look like

anyone's giving them the message. Well,

one thing is certain. If we are in for

an uprising, we must be ready for it.

Where do you think they'll gather their

forces, Hawkeye? Well, I'd say just

about in here, Colonel. That makes Fort

Reliance the first line of defense. If

it falls, the Eric will overrun every

white settlement in the territory. It

must be defended at any cost.

Hawkeye,

[Music]

why didn't you tell me you were here?

Well, now Jamie, we didn't rightly get a

chance to.

Really? Jamie, you shouldn't interrupt

when your father's having a meeting.

[Music]

Hawkeye and Ching and Skook are my very

best friends. Next to you, of course. Of

course. Please forgive the intrusion.

And since when did a son intrude upon

his father? Hawkeye, this is Miss

Parish, Jaime's new governors. This is

Hawkeye and this is Chingisko. How do

you do? Quite nicely, thank you, ma'am.

Hawkeye, when can we go out to shoot

squirrels? When can we? Hold on. You're

a little young yet. A You told me you

shot your first bear when you were six.

16? Was in self-defense. Things were a

little different when I was a sprout.

you you said you'd teach me how

to shoot a bow and arrow. When young

papoose grow into big brave, big enough

to pull bow, then I teach. Be a good boy

and run along now, Jamie. You'll see

Hawkeye and Chingis when they get back.

Are they leaving again? They're always

going away. Well, this time they're

going on a very important mission. Come

along now, Jamie.

[Music]

Now, to get back to the business at

hand, Hawkeye, I'll have to ask you and

Chingisgook to go with all possible

speed to Fort Reliance, and from there

proceed with a detachment of soldiers to

our arsenal here. I know where it is,

Colonel. Will you take me hunting

tomorrow? Sure. I will. Promise. Well,

if I don't, I hope to turn into a

raccoon. Get along with you, young man.

Goodbye, Hawkeye. Goodbye, Chance.

Bye. I'll be waiting for you.

[Applause]

I know you shut me up for security

reasons, Hawkeye, but after all, Miss

Parish is like one of the family and a

woman at that. Well, my grandpappy

always told me never to trust him.

Like all squal too much. Yes. Well,

unless you're afraid of the walls having

ears, I'd like to go back to where we

left off. Now, you will proceed with the

soldiers to this point here. Red River.

I didn't know you had an arsenal there,

Colonel. The best supply of arms and

ammunition in this territory. Certainly

enough to equip Fort Reliance to

withstand any attack. Now, how long do

you think it will take you to reach the

fort?

Tonight is night of full moon. Make good

speed on trail. Maybe two sons.

Excellent. Well, Godspeed, Hawkeye is

good.

Colonel Sanford. Yes. At uh Miss Parish.

Has she been with you long? About two

months. Do you know much about her? Only

that she came to us with very excellent

references.

Why? Just asking. She reminded me of

someone. Oh, probably some tavern wench

who served you supper at a wayside in.

Maybe you're right.

Stomach growl like hungry bear. We eat

before go on trail. Now I remember. You

go feed that bear. I'll meet you at the

bend of the river. Well, what you do?

I'm going to pay my respects to a lady.

[Music]

Mind if I come in? Miss Parish?

Not customary for a lady to receive a

man in her quarters. Maybe it'd be more

fitting if I called you Miss Adams.

Nice living quarters you got here.

[Music]

I suppose you're going to tell the

colonel who I am. Well, that depends.

Hawk, I please believe me when I tell

you how much I want to live down my

past. It's a pretty big past you've got

to live down. But it's behind me. When I

left Martinville and came here, I I

hoped I'd have another chance at living

a respectable life. Is that too much to

ask? Well, I guess everybody's entitled

to another chance. You've had a whole

ple of chances. I recollect that young

fell in Martinville blew his brains out.

Gambling money that wasn't rightly his.

Heard later that you'd promise to go

away with him if he got lucky. Then

there's that married man in Greenwood

going to leave his wife and three kids

to take up with you till the women got

together and ran you out of town.

Hawkeye, please. Who knows what else?

You've got a mighty big past to live

down. All right, tell them who I am.

Tell them all about me. I'll I'll pack

my things and leave. That's not

necessary. I don't aim to talk you down.

Hulk, I I You behave yourself and I

won't allow as I ever set eyes on you

before, but if you try anything, so help

me. I promise you, you'll live to regret

it.

Thanks, Hawkeye.

No thanks necessary, Miss Parish. You

just live your life here decent like,

and that'll be thanks enough.

[Music]

Okay, raise hands.

Seeing as how you know my name, I guess

it's me you want. No more talk. Go.

[Music]

Heat.

Heat.

[Music]

There's an easier way out, Hawkeye.

[Music]

I might have known. Leopard doesn't

change its spots, even in buckskins. I

suppose you had Chingkook ambushed, too.

You followed his trail just like I knew

you would. You're going to take us to

that arsenal you were so careful not to

have the colonel mention.

Pontiac and his braves have much more

need for those arms than Fort Reliance.

Pontiac? Up to now, you've been putting

men into their graves. When did you

start digging them up? Your sense of

humor is amusing, Hawkeye.

You know, the Irakquad, in many respect,

are like children, full of childish

superstitions. They believe their

legends, even the one that promises the

return of Pontiac from the dead.

Seems to me uh steaming up Indian tribes

is a little out of your line. Maybe you

like the thought of living in a wigwam

wrapped in an air quo blanket the rest

of your life. Not a blanket, Hawkeye,

but minks and otterters. Lots and lots

of minks and otter. What makes you think

you can get away with it? I have help.

An ambitious young Indian, chief of all

the Senakas.

Kabaka. I might have known he'd be your

hatchet man. I'm counting on other help.

Hawkeye, you?

Me?

I need a man like you to follow through

for me.

You know how I feel about you. I've

always felt this way.

Show us the way to the guns and powder.

After we've helped Pontiac and his

braves, we'll go away together and live

a life of luxury.

Just you and me.

You and me going away together is about

as lonely a notion as you thinking you

can dig Pontiac up from the grave.

You're a fool, Hawkeye, and I have no

use for fools.

Take him to the torture state.

[Music]

Enough.

You had enough.

Other ways of making you talk, my

friend.

Bring the hein.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

My brother not worry. Whiplash not make

me talk. I wasn't a might worried.

Your friend's about to die. Slowly

flash him.

[Music]

That's enough. Will you take us to the

arsenal?

Cut them down.

[Applause]

[Music]

What's going on? He comes. The word of

Manu is fulfilled.

Pontiac.

[Music]

Noble Chief, the day has come. Your

great Chief Pontiac has answered his

destiny and has come to lead you into

battle. Since the great Pontiac returned

from the happy hunting ground, he has

been shrouded in silence.

Why should the white woman be the great

Pontiac's tongue? Why can he not speak

for himself? The heart of your great

chief is heavy with pain because of the

great wrongs done his red brothers by

the white invaders. The hurt within him

has sealed his lips. Pontiac is here to

lead us. But great chief though he is.

Our braves cannot fight the white

soldiers guns with tomahawks. Pontiac

needs no counsel in the art of war.

Aanu, why do you think he had the

woodsman known as Hawkeye and the Moakin

brought here? Because they know where

the white man keeps his guns and powder.

The Irakqua nation will reward the white

woman. When the Irakqua again possesses

the land which is rightfully his, this

will be my reward.

[Applause]

Guns in hands of Ericqua. Bad medicine.

My brother Hawkeye not speak under

whiplash. Why he talk to save me? I told

you to stop threatening about it. If I

hadn't told him I'd take him to an

arsenal, they'd have stripped your back

like a venison steak. Me not mind to

die. to save many lives. Now, if you go

to the happy hunting ground, who's going

to cook my viddles?

We were sworn soldiers at Arsenal. Stop

threatening about it. There won't be any

soldiers at the Arsenal we're taking

them to.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Applause]

Well, you've passed off that

simple-minded Ericoy for Pontiac. and

due credit to one of them lawyer fellas

from Philadelphia. You can make Indians

believe anything they want to believe.

Yeah, you're proving your point about

that. Imagine being lucky enough to find

an Indian who's the expittent image of

Pontiac. Got the mind of a child, too.

You might call it luck at that. I found

the big oaf wandering around begging for

food.

But you must admit it's an ingenious

plan I made work.

Yeah, if you think nothing of the

innocent lives it'll cost. Not my life.

Or yours, Hawkeye.

Now you're being a weak, dependent woman

again.

Why don't you swallow your foolish

pride, Hawkeye? I've swallowed mine.

I can't help feeling the way I do about

you. And if I don't do exactly as you

say, there's always the torture stake to

show me the error of my ways. There'll

be no torture stake where we're going.

When we're rich enough, we'll move on.

We'll travel to London, Paris, Madrid,

Venice.

Have you ever seen a Venetian moon while

drifting in a gondola on a canal? Well,

now the last time I remember paying any

heed to the moon, I was drifting down a

creek on a log raft. Band of urons had

enough light to get a bead on me. You

know, sometimes you sound as if you like

the life you lead here among the

backwoods dirty-faced wretches. Those

backwoods dirty-faced wretches are

building a nation. They're good people.

[Music]

Why are we stopping here? This is it.

This is what? The arsenal.

What kind of a trick is this? The only

military arsenal I've ever seen was

bristling with soldiers. You don't need

guards for something you can't find in

the first place. Ching cook.

[Music]

You'll find what you're looking for in

there. Well, I didn't think the colonel

was capable of such cleverness. Kbaka,

bring some of your braves and follow us.

The rest of you stay here and guard the

entrance. Yeah. Lead the way. All right.

[Music]

So, you really think you can get away

with a fool cause like this? The only

cause I'm interested in is my own gain.

What if those airqua out there know

that? They never will. They'll continue

to believe in me until they serve their

use. They won't be liking it when they

find out they're Pontiacs of fake.

Something you made up to get what you

want out of them. You'll have no way of

knowing that until it's too late.

Now, take me to the guns.

[Music]

What is this?

There's the guns and powder I promised

you.

There's not enough powder there to

supply more than two men. There's more

than enough for me and change cook to go

on a hunting trip. You kill her. A very

clever Bruce, Hawkeye. But if you think

stalling for time will help you, you're

wrong. I can assure you you've only

delayed matters slightly. Well, I

promised to take you to the Arsenal, and

this is ours. You've tricked me for the

last time. Bring them outside.

[Music]

Seize them.

He tricked us. There are no guns here.

Pontiac orders you to seize them. Don't

you, Pontiac?

He is not Pontiac. What do you mean?

Certainly he's Pontiac, your chief. The

white woman has betrayed herself.

Betrayed myself? I I don't know what

you're talking about. It isn't too tough

to figure out. I knew if you kept

yapping long enough, you'd yap yourself

into trouble. That cave has an echo.

These Indians and their chiefs heard

every word you said in there.

Kind of puts an end to your uprising,

Kabaka. What you mean? Without guns,

without a chief, I don't see you getting

very far. Long Rifle speaks with a wise

tongue. We will take the white woman

back to our village for punishment.

You can't do that, Aanu. The white woman

will be punished by white man's law. I

give you my word on it.

Hawkeye's words are good medicine.

Kubaka,

you have brought shame on the Irakqua

nation.

You cannot be condemned. You have the

mind of a child.

We will take you back to your people.

Take them away.

[Music]

Farewell.

[Music]

We better get started. Miss Parish.

What are you going to do with me? The

only thing I can do, take you to the

capital where you'll be tried for

treason. Treason?

Won't have much of a chance, will I?

Better for you. White man's trial than

Indian justice. I'm sorry. I'm rightly

sorry.

[Music]

Join us again at this same time next

week for another of James Venomar

Cooper's gripping tales of the early

American frontier. Another exciting

adventure of Hawkeye and his blood

brother Chingkook,

last of the Moheakans.

Heat.

Heat.

[Music]

The immortal pen of James Fenomore

Cooper.

brings you thrilling tales of

excitement.

Blazing action on the early American

frontier.

Stirring adventures filled with the

daring and courage of Hawkeye.

First of the long rifles and his blood

brother Ching Nutachk, last of the

Moheakans.

[Music]

Hallelujah.

[Music]

Tuscaroras looks like they were

expecting us. Mean not like Tuscarora

welcome. Be shown. They've only got bows

and arrows. No use in wasting lead.

[Music]

Oh, they got me. Run for your life, Jen.

It's cookook.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Tuscorura not give much trouble. Fight

like squ. I wouldn't take him too

lightly. I don't think it was an

accident that they knew we were on our

way to Fort Redstone.

Lieutenant Louis Degrass, you are

unworthy of bearing the arms of his

majesty.

Prisoner Degrass, I degrade you in the

name of the king.

Get him out of my sight. Prisoner, left

turn.

March.

His shoulders look kind of naked. If you

have any business here, the sergeant

Hawkeye.

Colonel,

my executive officer, Major Monreef.

Glad to meet you, Major. You must excuse

my abruptness. We've just been through

some very distressing business.

You must be Chinkook. The colonel has

told me about both of you. Does that

prisoner have anything to do with our

being sent for? Everything.

It's all there. The notes on Lieutenant

Degrass's court's marshal for treason.

When's he hang? As soon as the escort

arrives to take him to headquarters.

I for one am still hopeful they show him

some clemency. Still moved by his plea

of innocence. Are you Monreef?

Wishful thinking, sir. But after all, we

do wear the same uniform.

Read that. It'll save time.

[Applause]

Breach load and rifles.

We hear talk of that. Shoot more fast.

The greatest military development since

the discovery of gunpowder. In proper

hands, a weapon that could put an end to

warfare. Degrass stole the plans. Worse

than that. 50 of the actual rifles

themselves. You have proof? Beyond any

doubt. But what concerns us now is

finding out what he did with the rifles

and getting them back. 50 new weapons

like these in the wrong hands. Whole

frontier could go up in flames. Chief of

Tuscarora tribe would sacrifice half of

them to get breach loading rifle. And

knowing Taywan, I'd say you're right.

But I'm not so sure he's got a hold of

them yet. I glad I'm not the only one

guilty of wishful thinking. I'm afraid

you stand alone, major. We had a bit of

a skirmish with the Tuscaroras on our

way here. If they'd have had breach

loaders, they'd have sure used them

instead of bows and arrows. Then where

can they be, Hawkeye? It's just as if

the ground opened up and swallowed them.

Well, the sooner we start digging, the

sooner we'll get to the bottom. Strong

arm with shovel dig tunnel faster than

words. Hawkeye

couldn't have accomplished his perfect

alone. He must have had some outside

help. I suggest you let us assign some

troops. Mean and no offense, Major. This

isn't parade ground country. Those red

coats of yours' be pretty dazzling on a

quiet trail. You'll hear from us,

Colonel.

For 10 years, I worked with my hands

on the ducks of Marseilles.

I had only across the bread, sometimes

putting away each precious frank, saving

for the day I could buy passage to a

free new world. Would I not be a madman

to have exchanged the fulfillment of a

dream for a traitor's mess of pottage? I

got to admit, that's a lot of trouble to

go to to get yourself hung.

But you've got to tell us more than just

dreams if you want to get yourself out

of this. I can tell you only what I've

already told the colonel. I delivered

the plans to build the breach loaders to

the gunsmith personnel. You'd think the

army would have those guns made at

headquarters.

Benton is a former army man himself.

Besides, there is no better gunsmith in

his territory. It appears I haven't been

of much use to you on myself. I wouldn't

say that, Lieutenant. You've convinced

us that you're not a traitor.

I wonder if the same thing can be said

for that gunsmith.

We'll do what we can for you,

Lieutenant.

[Music]

Hello.

[Music]

Hello.

[Music]

Tuscarora still follow. Yeah, don't look

back. I don't want him to know that we

know he's there. He's like beaten dog,

afraid to go near cooking pot. He acts

like somebody just wants him to keep

track of us. But if I know those

Tuscaroras, they'll satisfy their hunger

when their teeth get strong enough to

chaw us all up. My white brother and me

can pull fangs of 10 Tuscaroras.

Maybe if they just got bows and arrows.

If they ever get their hands on those

breach loaders, it'll take us and all

the king's men to keep them from

becoming a pack of murderous wolves.

[Music]

Can't get a wink of sleep these days.

All right. All right. I'm a coming. And

stop that banging. I need knocking it

down.

Red skin and a woodsman.

Can't you tell the time? It's past 8:00.

Shop's closed. Come back in the morning.

Oh, the morning's for hunting, Mr.

Benton. I can't get much done unless my

rifle's in good shape.

Night work will cost you double. Came

here to get it fixed, not to haggle.

Don't just stand there. Hand it over.

Fine weapon.

Fine weapon.

Goods. I can make a sew.

What do you say is wrong with it? It's

kind of old-fashioned.

Ain't seen better. I heard you have.

Take that flint lock off of there and

cut a little slot under the hammer. Cut

this piece here and fix it so it'll open

up. You got a breach loading rifle. You

meddling in a hoot owl. There ain't no

such thing. Now you get. No use popping

your eyes, Benton. We heard at Fort

Redstone that you've been making breach

loaders for the army. Who told you

that's a military secret? Still would be

if the 50 guns you made had ever reached

the military?

You a Moheakin?

Me? Moheakin?

Then you must be Hawkeye. Well, what do

you want with me? I already told the

colonel everything I knew. It's them two

soldiers you ought to be looking for.

The ones I delivered the guns to.

Delivered?

What I mean is they come here with an

order signed by Lieutenant Degrasse.

What do you expect me to do? Except turn

them over to him. Would you recognize

those two soldiers if you ever saw them

again? They was as close to me as you be

now. Red coats and all.

But they weren't from the fort. Colonel

had me look over all the troops. But you

can ask him. He writed all down. him and

that major. When man hide truth, tongue

rattle fast. A look at here. The colonel

was satisfied with what I told him. And

you've got no call to say I'm lying.

Now, we wouldn't think of doubting the

colonel's word, except that he's been

kind of careless lately about keeping

track of missing men and all that.

Haven't heard of any soldiers that were

missing. You're sure you gave those guns

to red coats? I told you the colonel

writ wrote it all down.

The army keeps track of missing

soldiers. Now, who did you give those

guns to? They had an order in the grass.

Well, maybe they stole it. And them red

coats I was wearing, too. You're a lion

and you know it, Benton. Where are those

breach loaders? Hawkeye,

me know how to make tongue loose.

Where are breachers? You tell or I take

scout. You wouldn't dare. I dare. You

better loosen your tongue or he'll

loosen your hair. Me count. One. Two.

Wait. Wait.

You promise you let me go.

There wasn't really any soldiers. But I

I wasn't in this alone. The whole

[Music]

Kill her on horse like mist in sun. Go

fast.

[Music]

Leave it as nothing but a blind trail.

We know how to loosen tongue, but not of

dead man.

[Music]

Killer ride that way. That's strange. I

was certain he was headed for the fort.

How my brother sure red coat kill

gunsmith.

[Music]

This pistol ball. See those little

marks? They're letters. GR. They stand

for George Rex the King. Army puts that

mark on all its ammunition.

[Music]

or stop here.

Kill her. Get off and walk.

[Music]

The Colonel was right. The ground did

open up and swallow them breach loaders.

Wagon trucks.

And that that's just about the size of

the box they use to ship guns in. If I'm

not mistaken, those tracks will lead us

right smack in the middle of a Tuscerora

war dance.

[Music]

They're quiet before the storm.

[Music]

Medicine man through storm now. Ask

spirits when start war. Taywan likes

doing things proper. What interests me

right now is that tepee there.

Tuscarora braves, not guard empty tepee.

You can bet on that. It is Tuscarora

custom. Medicine man must give signal

before start war dance. I have time to

see. We both have time.

[Music]

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

[Music]

Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

[Music]

Sure

[Music]

is a sweet weapon.

Tuscara shoot bad even with good rifle.

Just the same. I wouldn't want to be on

the other end of it. Even if a squad was

aiming it.

[Music]

Sergeant,

[Applause]

master the garrison. We're marching on

the Tuscerora village. Full battle

dress. Aren't you putting the cart

before the horse? Colonel Hawkeye.

You have your order, Sergeant.

Terrible things have been happening

since you left. Benton's been murdered.

I know.

This is what killed him.

Army is here. Put that together with

some bootprints and you've got the

answer to what's going on around here.

Not very pretty, is it? treason, murder,

and I'd never have expected either of

Degrasse. Degrasse? Tell you the truth,

Colonel, neither would I. Left tenant is

great medicine man, able to stay in jail

and shoot gunsmith in far away village.

Jetgook, would it interest you to know

that he was not in jail?

For your information, Degrass escaped

during the changing of the guard last

night. Major Monree is out with a patrol

searching for him. I don't mean to be

disrespectful, Colonel, but how do you

figure marching on the Tuscarora is

going to help you find your escape

prisoner any quicker? Degrass is the

least of my worries now. I don't have to

tell you what it means if our breach

loaders fall into the hands of Taywan.

And by all that's holy, I'll find them

if I have to tear down every tusker or a

tepee. Reckon I can save you the

trouble, Colonel? We've already found

them. What? still in their boxes,

sitting right smack in the middle of the

Tuscerora village. Still in their boxes,

you say? Then our only chance is to

march on them before they have an

opportunity of organizing an attack. The

way I look at it, Colonel, we've got to

get those breach loaders away from the

Tusceroras first, or you won't have

anybody left who can march back.

Colonel, do you ever have a pow-wow with

the Tuscarora Chief Taywan? No. Well,

maybe you ought to. We're beyond powo. A

lot of grief in this world could be

saved, Colonel, if people would just

take the time to talk things over face

to face, Hawkeye. I earn my way as a

soldier. But that doesn't mean that I

enjoy war any better than you do. I'd

walk to a peace council in my bare feet.

If only I knew that I could trust Taywan

to keep his word. I'm afraid you haven't

got much choice, Colonel. In the face of

those breach loaders, your garrison has

about as much chance as sheep in a

slaughter house.

[Music]

Are you Tuscarora braves or hauling

dogs? Hawkeye come the sign of peace.

Tan the white chief which is a council

of peace. Why white man not talk peace

when Tuscora braves have only bow and

arrow? Any man can make a mistake no

matter what the color of his skin. And

you'll be making the biggest mistake of

all if you turn us away now. With this

day one, no make mistake. The 50 fire

sticks you have now can do a lot of

damage for a while. You might even drive

the white man out of these parts, but

many more will be back with more fire

sticks than you can count.

The white chief has spoken with a

straight tongue. Taywan, the big chief

of chiefs, his majesty the king from

across the great waters. We'll always

hold out his hand in peace to you. Only

one way Tuscarora have peace.

Be strong. Well, Tuscarora bows and

arrows are good medicine for hunting,

but they're bad medicine to fight wars

with against guns. Hawkeye talk like old

men without mind.

Tuscarora

have better guns than white men. Bows

and arrows that shoot are better than

guns that won't shoot. Hawkeye never see

gun like this before. Shoot fast,

straight.

Kill many Yankees. I know more about

those fire sticks than you do, chief.

The white man who sold them to you

betrayed you just as he betrayed his own

people. I know you must have traded

plenty of good furs and wamp them for

those guns, but they're bad medicine.

Red man can't fire them. Taywan red man.

Taywan make shoot. Go ahead. Try it.

Hawkeye's tongue. Bring him sudden

death.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

His speak truth. Guns no good. Chief,

guns, good or bad, can never solve our

differences. Oh, white men hate

Tuscarora. Go. Now, I'd suggest you

think it over, Taywan. You're worse off

now than you were before you bought

those guns. White chief here still holds

out his hand in peace to you. Taywan, I

was sent here to keep the peace, not

make war.

White chief, speak truth. want Indian

and white men to live like brothers,

like Hawkeye and me.

We sit, make council, smoke pipe of

peace. Sweetest smoke I can think of.

[Music]

Sir, the prisoner grass. Guards, wait

outside.

[Music]

You'll both be interested to know that

we've recovered the breach loaders.

Hawkeye and Chingichkook risked their

lives to accomplish that. They are to be

complimented, sir. Lieutenant Degrass,

your innocence has been established, and

with my most sincere apology, I'm

restoring you to duty. And my first

order to you is arrest Major Monreef.

Well, sir, you're making a most grievous

error. Not as grievous as most of yours

have been.

Tan,

stand back. All of you,

drop those guns. You're not going to

send me to the other.

Come on. Get away from that door. Come

on, move.

[Applause]

[Music]

Here's your prisoner, Lieutenant.

prisoner. Much

white man justice. Good.

Hawkeye, I'm sending the breach loaders

to headquarters. I'd appreciate it if

you'd escort them. Be glad to, Colonel.

I knew you would. The wagon's waiting at

the stockade gate.

Hawkeye, I still can't understand how

you could have been so calm when Tan

pulled those triggers. Well, now,

Colonel, that's a compliment I don't

rightly deserve. I reckon you'd have

been just as calm if you knew that those

breach loaders didn't have any firing

pins. You mean you and Ching? Well,

Tuscarora, how white brother and Moin

pull fangs. Goodbye, Colonel.
