All language subtitles for Hawkeye and the Last of the Mohicans Compilation Part 9 ¦ Colorized English

[Music]

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 Nutk. Last of the

Moheakans.

[Music]

Laura, what is it? Indians. Where?

there. Then the bush is creeping towards

us.

Oh, Laura, you're imagining things

again. I didn't this time, Sandy. I saw

their head feathers. I did. I did. I

thought the Indians around here were

friendly. Friends sometimes turn

hostile.

Here,

you take this.

[Music]

I know I should have stayed at home.

We'll all be killed and scalped. I may

scarce enough hair on the head as it is.

[Music]

You see them, George? Yes. Oh, my sent.

Follow me.

There you are.

Wild cattails.

That was what you mistook for feathers.

Oh, come on. Let's get back to the

horses.

[Music]

Oh no, Laura, not Indians again. When

will you stop imagining?

Drop that gun.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

What's the meaning of this outrage? I

take it your name is Sandy Lee, ma'am.

It is, but how did you know? And you're

figuring on splitting up your land for a

pastor of colonist you're bringing here?

What if I am? You ain't going to do it,

ma'am. Well, of all the brazen nefr. And

who are you to tell me what I can or

can't do with my holdings? Tim Grogan's

the name. And it's not only me that's

telling you, but every one of us

trappers here. Well, even wilderness

trappers should have better manners than

to speak to a lady in that passion. You

keep your mouth shut, young. We're the

ones that settle this country at the

risk of our lives. Tame the wild

and we're not going to be

pushed out by anybody. Whether you

trappers leave or not is entirely your

own affair, but this is my land through

Patton Grant from the crown to my late

father, and I'll do with it as I please.

Grant or no, Grant, you and the others

are heading back where you come from. I

won't have you speaking to Mistress Lee

that way, Bergen.

That won't be necessary, Groen.

It seems to me you're being uncommon,

high-handed, ordering an owner offer

land. It's just as much our land. You're

mad. We trappers fought to make it safe.

How dare buried here? And no scrap of

paper's going to take it away from us.

As squatters, it was never yours to

lose. I think you'd better get your men

and clear out of here.

Cop Nice. Nothing.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

Don't touch.

[Music]

I don't think he'll be interested in

hanging around here any longer. Take him

with you.

We owe you our deepest thanks, sir. You

owe us nothing, ma'am. Glad we could be

of service to you.

Oh, what on earth is the matter with you

now? That Indian, he keeps looking at

me. He wants the scalp. Oh, stop it. You

silly goose. Stop it. My companion,

she's very frightened of Indians. Well,

she has nothing to fear from Chinggook.

Chingk? Isn't that the name of the last

chief of the Moheakans?

It's a privilege to know you.

And you, sir?

My name is George Washington. Folks

around here call me Hawkeye. This is

Mistress Sander Lee and her companion,

Mistress Laura Dodson. Howdy, ma'am.

It's a pleasure, ma'am. You don't mind

my asking. What's a party like yours

doing out here alone? Even if you do own

the land. Well, I'm surveying the

property from Mistress Lee. Getting

ready to open up the homesteads for the

colonist still coming in. In time short,

Mr. Hawkeye. The first group are

arriving in a very few days. Time stop.

If White Trapper go on war path, are we

really in any danger? You saw them,

ma'am. Those trappers are in an ugly

mood. Well, they shan frighten me. I

came here to partition my land and I

will. White speak brave words. But

wise fox seek shelter if storm break.

She gets Rookie is right. Sandy, you and

Laura can't stay out here in the

wilderness unprotected. I'd take Mr.

Washington's advice, Mistress Lee.

There's a settlement not far from here,

Carry Town. A good idea. I can complete

the survey while you and Laura rest at

Carry Town.

[Music]

Hello.

Heat.

[Music]

Well, Grogan and his men are coming back

into town. Be interesting to hear what

they have to report. Slick as a whistle

where you got Grogan all steamed up

against that leaf female, saying she'd

force him and the other trappers to

clear out.

There's nothing like having a cat's part

to pull your chestnuts out of the fire.

Chris

[Music]

Something go wrong, Groen. Hawkeye just

popped right out of the woods. Him and

that engine partner of his. I'm a little

surprised at you, Groen. I thought you

trappers had stronger metal than that.

Of course, if you want the settlers

moving in and taking over your trapping

territory. No, you know we don't want

that, Mr. Brent. And we'll go to

shooting if we have to. But you're

afraid of Hawkeye. Is that it? Not of

him or of no man,

[Music]

Rogan. You know my loyalties on the

trapper's side, and I'm going to help

you. Now, just don't look around and

play up no matter what I say or do.

Why, I want to have you horsehip, Groen.

Now, clear out of my settlement before I

have you and the other trappers thrown

into the lockup. Now, look here, Mr.

Branch. You can't talk to me like that.

I can and I will and another thing make

any more trouble and I'll see you

trappers starve before I buy any furs.

Mr. Brent, my deepest thanks, sir, for

what you just said. I'm Sandy Lee,

your servant, ma'am, and my regrets that

I was unable to help. I only learned now

what those stupid fools tried to do.

Rest assured, however, it won't happen

again. You're very kind, sir. Not at

all. There's room for everybody in this

new land, and I'd deem it an honor,

ma'am, if you'd accept my help in

settling your colonists. Well, thanks,

Mr. Brent. Just looking ahead to the

future. You'll headquarter here, of

course, at the inn. Allow me to be your

escort, ma'am.

Oh, you'll be joining us here, won't

you? Never could get used to resting my

head on linen at night, ma'am. But Ching

Cookook and I'll be around if you need

us. Well, thank you again for

everything.

[Music]

Hello. Hawhe, I'll be Oh, Torble, Toby.

Torable. I hope you don't mind us

talking while I keep on working.

Promised I'd have this rifle fixed come

nightfall. No, I don't mind at all.

What can you tell me about Calhoun

Brent?

Brent?

Well, now he practically owns the

settlement,

lays down the laws, has his own lockup,

and gives orders to the trappers, too.

Nice gunnness. Come on, Toby. Loosen up.

Got to look at that, Mistress Lee. Nice

gal. You speak with slippery tongue. You

afraid of Brent? Me?

You bet. That's why I ain't saying a

word about me hearing the uh got and the

trappers all riled up over something

last night. Not a word. Mm-

Also, I ain't saying nothing about him

declaring that once colonists moved in

here, the trappers would have to move

out.

Nope. I'm keeping my mouth shut.

Well, sorry you couldn't give us any

information, Toby. Me, too. See you.

Yep. See you.

[Music]

Where have you been?

I've been checking up on Hawkeye. I

don't think you fooled him one bit by

play acting with Groin. Oh, why is that?

He's been strolling around the

settlement asking questions about what?

You and the trappers. Uh-huh. Is that

all you got to say? A bullet will do all

the talking if need be. I didn't build

up this fur trading empire to have it

ruined by settlers. You want me to make

certain by taking care of that Lee

female? I don't think that'll be

necessary. I might persuade her to join

me here when the crown revokes her land

settlement grant. Huh?

She tells me that the land has to be

colonized before this winter. Failure to

do so means loss of the land. Then all

we got to do is send them colonists back

to where they came from before they

reach here.

A runner just brought in word. Mr.

Brent, the first two wagons as settlers

are going to reach the territory before

nightfall. Does the town know about

this? No, he was one of our men. He came

straight to me. Good. Tell him to keep

his mouth shut.

Where are you going? Why, I thought I'd

escort Mistress Lee and her companions

out for a ride. I think it's time they

got to know some of the country around

here. But what about those settlers? Oh,

those. I thought I'd leave that up to

your judgment, Grogan. Yours and

Chris's. All I ask is that they don't

stay in the territory alive.

[Music]

You think Brent behind all this?

Everything we've learned points that

way. But why? Well, he's got all the

business from all the trappers in this

whole territory. He's getting rich on

it. A new settlement had put a stop to

that. Well, what we do about Brent?

First thing we better do is tell

Washington and the ladies what we've

learned. As long as he doesn't pull the

wool over their eyes, we've still got a

chance.

You amaze me, Miss Lee. I do. How so?

That a girl of your breeding and quality

should concern herself with

colonization. Oh, it was my father's

dream. A dream he will to me along with

this patent grant. Just think of it. All

this beautiful fertile land will soon

provide farms for simple people who ask

nothing more than soil to till and the

right to worship as they please. And

Providence willing, they'll find a haven

here.

[Music]

Must been attacked by some Indians

somewhere. We better head back to the

settlements.

[Music]

[Applause]

Well, them settlers won't be back in a

hurry.

[Music]

Watch him.

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

Heat. Heat.

Heat.

[Music]

Heat.

[Music]

before we came, you said the engines

here were peaceful, ma'am. But they are.

I I

them errors say different. We want no

part of them. We're heading back. But

you can't think what it'll do to the

other colonists. Well, they'll turn

back, too. That That's for certain. Oh,

but please. We're We're beholden to you,

ma'am, for trying to help us, but there

ain't no amount of land worth getting

scout for. We better be heading back,

Miss Lee.

[Music]

Okay. I thought you were back at the

settlement. When we learned that you'd

come out here, we figured to join you.

That's lucky we did. Who are these men?

These are the Indians that scared off

your colonists. So, you're in this, too,

eh, Chris? Who put you up to it? Those

trappers? That wasn't necessary, Brent.

Why does it have to be the trappers?

Isn't it obvious they're to blame?

Maybe Chris has something to say about

that.

[Music]

Well, I'm going to jail anyway.

All right. Was Tim Groen and the

Trappers.

[Music]

Quiet. Hawkeye. Glad you joined me. Care

for some refreshment of some kind? Oh,

no thanks, Brent. Just wondered how you

made out with Grogan and the trappers.

They're in the jail house, quiet and

peaceful, wait a waiting trial. Kind of

like locking the barn door after the

horse is stolen, though. Oh, why is

that? Well, uh, those colonists that

Miss Lee needs to settle the territory,

I don't imagine they'll be too eager to

return now. She doesn't have to worry

about that anymore. Oh, why is that?

Why, haven't you heard the news? There's

two more wagon loads of them on the way.

Is that so? That's what I heard. And

with Grogan and the others in jail, they

won't run into any trouble.

Oh, that's wonderful. I'm delighted to

hear it. I think I'll go right over now

and congratulate Miss Lee. Yeah, I knew

you'd be glad to hear about it, Brent.

[Music]

I ought to kill you for this. Dry up.

Was either you or Brent. I had to get

Hawkeye off his trail. I hadn't figured

on nothing like this. Me and the other

trappers figured Brent was our friend.

Now he's turning against us. You're a

smart one you are. He was never with

you. Brent looks after himself and real

good, too.

There's work to be done, lads.

What now? More call is coming. They

didn't learn their lesson the first

time. This time, I want them wiped out.

Everyone, it ain't for me. I don't hold

with murder. Not for all the furs in the

country. You'll hold still for more than

you know, Groven.

Ammunition

[Applause]

and horses are outside. Take him with

you. I want him left at the wagons as

proof who is behind the massacre.

[Music]

[Music]

Did everything work out as we planned?

Better. Brent's going to lead the party

himself. Let's show pale face who tried

to kill them. It'll be all the proof any

court of law will need. What about that

settler Turner in his wagons? Me take

care. Good. Let's not keep him waiting.

[Music]

[Music]

That is far enough. Let's drop him here.

[Music]

[Music]

It's a trap.

[Music]

All right, friend.

[Music]

Well, almost finished here now. The rest

of your colonials can start moving in

any day now, Sandy. Good. And there's

nothing I like more than for you and

Chinguch to be the first to homestead.

Well, thanks for asking us, ma'am. But

we'll leave the settling down to others.

We'd better be moving on. Oh, I'm sorry.

I'll miss you. I will too. I hope our

paths will cross again. We'll be hearing

of each other again, George. It's been a

pleasure, ma'am. I'll never forget you,

Hawkeye. Goodbye.

I just wanted to thank you.

What's the matter,

Hawkeye?

Maybe someday I take squash.

Come on.

[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 Chingut Cookook. Last of the

Moheakans.

[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,

first of the long rifles, and his blood

brother Ching Nutk, last of the

Moheakans.

[Music]

Well, from the look on your face, I'll

say you didn't have any more luck than I

did. There's snow and ice everywhere.

Same in that direction. Beats me how

this fell Hannon keeps saying there's a

snowfree pass on these parts. You hear

Iquoy legend too many times. The worst

of it is he has those women back in Koga

counting on a way west that just doesn't

exist.

[Music]

Ladies, ladies, please. I can't let you

have all these goods. Did you get your

wagon over to the blacksmiths? They're

working on it now. Good.

Mrs. Daniels, can't you stop and I got

my regular customers to think of? We're

taking no more than we ordered.

Well, from the frowns on your faces, I

suppose you're about to say, "We told

you so." That's about the sum of it,

Mrs. Daniels. We search for a pass, not

find. Snow and ice deep everywhere. Mrs.

Shandi's not afraid of snow. Mrs. Shandi

is pretty brave. She's a might stubborn

Peggy.

You ladies still plan on pushing on to

Ranchie Valley. All trails from here

dangerous now. That's one plan I'll

never change. Hawkeye.

It took my husband two years to build us

a home in Sen for us. And we're fair

anxious to be a family again. White

brave. Wait many moons for White

and Papoose.

Fewer more moons not matter. What he

means, ma'am, is it would be a lot

better if you just wait here till after

the spring thaw. But we can't wait here

that long. We've little money and not

very many supplies. The other ladies are

in the same fix. As I told them,

tightening your belts is a lot safer

than chancing those snow filled passes.

But Mr. Hannon says there's a way

through, a way kept clear by hot springs

under the ground. That I can vote for,

ma'am.

And like I told you, I'll have you all

in the Ranche Valley by Christmas.

Not to be interfering, Mr. Hanland, but

for the sake of the women and children

you're guiding, I sure hope this

snowfree passers yours just isn't an

Indian legend. They know little legend.

Me and my friends been using a quite a

spell. Drapes in now to Ranch Valley

snug as you please. Changing and me were

searching for your pass. There's no

place anywhere's around here that's fit

for a wagon crossing.

Great woodsman. What's the matter? A

little sprinkle in the snow bog down

your tracking? Well, ladies, you heard

him. What do you think of my offer to

guide you now? To wart our intention,

Hawkeye, to spend the winter here in

Koga. And if you listen to me, you won't

have to. All I can say, Mrs. Daniels, is

that I hope his eyesight's a lot better

than ours. He is snowblind. He think he

find pass. You're saying I'm a liar,

engine. All Chingchuk meant was that

sometimes the snow plays tricks on

people's eyes. My ears understand the

king's English where it's spit out by an

engine's tongue or by a bag of wind

wearing buckkins. Jinch, no fighting

now. Think of the ladies. The important

thing is to get them up to Ranchie

Valley. I, Mr. Hamlin, do you think

we'll be able to reach the valley in

time for Christmas? Sooner than that,

ma'am. Once we get through that hot

water pass, it's like traveling on

spring grass all the way. Sounds mighty

convincing. Don't you think so, Mr.

Bragg? You're up to me. I'd rather wait

till the snow's thought. So would I. If

I own this trading post, make a nice

tidy profit having these ladies around

till spring. Ory to sell everything out.

Now you look at here. Mrs. Daniels asked

me an opinion and I give it. So did he.

Well, ladies, are you listening to them

and spend all winter here or are you

coming with me? I'm for pushing on now.

You might as well go along with him,

Mrs. Wedstock. You won't be happy

otherwise.

[Music]

Helen,

seeing as you're so busy, you got time

for a little talk? I guess I can spare a

couple of minutes. I can't seem to get

this Hot Springs Pass of yours out of my

mind. What direction did you say it was

in? I didn't. Me and Chingage, knowing

the ways of the country as we do, we

figured we'd go along and lend you a

hand getting the wagons through. We

needed help from you and that engine,

we'd ask for it. Something tells me

you're going to need all you can get.

Now, when you're by White River rapids,

that snowfree passers ought to be north

of there. Keep it guessing. It couldn't

be south on account of the Willilicut

River. Well, now that's something you're

going to have to find out for yourself.

Way you act, Hanland. body. You'd think

you never heard of White River Rapids. I

know White River Rapids better than you.

Now, just tend to your own business and

keep your nose out of mind. White River

Rapids is the same kind of legend as

that Hot Springs Pass of yours. There's

no such place in this territory. That's

the second time you and that engine's

called me a liar. I guess me and Chinguk

are just a couple of natural

disbelievers.

Heat.

[Applause]

[Music]

Heat.

[Music]

Heat.

[Music]

Heat.

[Music]

Hawkeye Handland's our only chance of

getting out of here. Me and Ching

Cookook know how anxious you folks are

to get to Ranchie Valley. We'd feel a

whole lot better if you'd just wait till

we make sure you're going the right way.

We can't wait, Hawkeye. Another storm

and we'd be snowed in here for the rest

of the winter. Better you stay here for

winter than out there in snow forever.

That woodsman's like a bulldog worry and

a bone. He'll chomp on it till he cracks

it open in La Mer. He sure ain't

swallowed the bill of goods we sold them

women. Maybe we ought to call the whole

thing off. You keep the olive waiting

for the slaves we promised him. Uh-uh.

We'll deal with Mr. Hawkeye and his

engine friend as we have to.

No use, Mrs. Wedstock. The blacksmith

needs a couple more days to make a pin

for that whipple tree. Well, I don't

understand. He told me yesterday the

only thing wrong was that cracked rim.

And he fixed it. I thought maybe I'd

have something we could use in place of

that pin, but I didn't. Well, what do

you suggest we do, Mr. Handling? Only

thing we can do, Mrs. Daniels, we'll put

half of the women from the Wedstock

wagon into yours. The other half can go

with Saunders. But what about us? You

can't leave us behind. Don't intend to.

Could be my crowded, but we'll find room

for you and your family somewhere soon.

Indeed, we will. But I can't leave my

wagon behind. Everything we own is in

it. The only thing we can do, Mrs.

Wedtock. We've got a long way to go, and

we can't chance any more delays. Don't

mean to be interfering, Mrs. Wedstock,

but maybe there's something we can do to

help you. Nobody's asking you. Now,

let's hear him out, Mr. Hanland. Do you

have a way of fixing the wagon? No,

ma'am. That's a job for the blacksmith.

But when he's done with it, me and

Chingichkook could follow your trail and

bring it to you. His light wagon. Catch

up fast. Well, that's a wonderful idea.

What do you think, Mr. Hamlin? I'm not

objecting. First bit of sense to come

out of that woodsman. All right,

everybody. Let's get loaded.

What do you want, Hawkeye and that

engine friend of his tagging along for?

Why not? At least we'll know where to

find him if we want him. All right,

let's get things moving.

[Music]

Still doubting they'll find that pass,

Hawkeye. That's right. They're not going

to find anything more than me and

Chinggook did. When we follow, as soon

as they're out of sight. Didn't you say

you were going to drive the wedstock

wagon? Blacksmith says it won't be ready

till tomorrow anyway.

My brother Hawkeye.

Not need blacksmith.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

All right, ladies. Fallout. 4 hours of

being cramped in them wagons. Enough.

We'll be taking a rest here. First foul.

[Music]

You boys are going on a hunting trip.

What fur? We got enough food for

ourselves. The women folk can look to

the Ottawa for their vittles. Wasn't

thinking of that kind of hunting.

The game you're going after can shoot

back when you let him.

[Music]

Hanland sure changed his mind fast about

us coming along.

Maybe he have good reason to know where

we are at.

But why he so anxious to take white

squas on such dangerous trail?

That's a good question, my brother, and

it's one that we must find the answer

to.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

It run it.

1 2

[Music]

Ready

or not, here I come.

Shh. Shaggy, don't say anything or will

find us.

[Music]

I got them both. You sure? First shot. I

drilled that engine right through the

heart. And I left the great Hawkeye with

a ball of lead right smack between the

eyes. Good. Now, let's not keep Chief

Tamisca in his otherwise waiting for the

slaves any longer. Peggy,

maybe she's over in the other wagon.

Tamisa ought to pay us a pretty good

price for that, young. Ronnie. Ronnie.

Mom. Ronnie. Where'd she come from?

Mommy. Mommy.

They're going to take us to Indians.

Donnie, what are you talking about? Come

on. Let's hitch up the horses. We may

have to ride close herd now, ladies,

from now on.

Mama. Oh no, we haven't got time to see

Mr. H calling.

Hey, you bled a lot, but you're going to

be all right. But my brother Hawkeye, he

not hurt. No, I just played possum so

the bushwhackers would leave.

White squad's in bad trouble. Need help

fast. We go on foot. Wagon make too much

noise. You stay put. I'm going alone.

Where my brother go, I go. If you were

any weaker, you'd be needing a cradle.

Me, not papoose. Amigo. Now, you just

stay put. You've lost a lot of blood.

You'll be snug here for a while. Soon as

you feel able, drive the team back to

the settlement. Tell them what's

happened.

[Music]

That's what they said. Honest. Are you

sure they said ought to? Mr. Hanland

says he's going to get a good price for

Ronnie.

Peggy's not one for making up tales,

Mrs. Daniels. Well, I just can't believe

it. Why Mr. Hanland and his friends even

refused payment for guidance? Maybe with

good reason. They're planning to sell us

into slavery to the Indians. Oh, the

child's making it up now, aren't you?

Mr. Sandi was with me. She heard him,

too. Didn't you, Mrs. Shandi? But look,

if they weren't scouting for engines,

they would have gone ahead of us. Ain't

that right? Well, then why' they go back

trail? And he shot Hawkeye. I heard them

say so.

[Music]

Judging by the looks on your faces, I'd

say little Mrs. Shandi's been talking

out of turn. Then it's true. You don't

have to worry, ladies. The Ottawa won't

work it too hard. Might even marry and

take you and your little ones into the

tribe. Oh, you foul son of Satan. Watch

your tongue. I don't want any trouble

from you ladies. The Ottawa won't pay

much for damaged goods.

[Music]

Heat. Heat. N.

[Music]

You let my boy alone. Him not afraid.

Regular little warrior. Any you be good

and maybe the chief will keep you all

together. You filthy beast. Maybe I'll

keep this one for myself. I'd rather be

slave to the grubbiest Ottawa. You'll

get your way. We'll start with her,

Chief. How much? Four beaver manchild

two papoose one. Well, they're all good

and sturdy, chief. I figured I'm getting

at least four hands of beaver pelts for

the women. Two hands.

Four for the youngans and three for the

older ones. Sques. Three hands. No more.

You got yourself a deal, Tuska.

Bring furs.

You heathen devils.

We'll die before we suffer ourselves to

be your slaves.

[Music]

Ain't never seen so many prime pelts in

my life. Just remember 2/3 of them is

mine. When we leave here, all our

weapons are going to be in my wagon.

What about the furs for the youngans,

Chief?

[Music]

Greetings, Tamisca. I come in peace.

Greeting, Hawkeye. Tamisca's lodge. Your

lodge. The welcome of Tamisca is known

beyond the land of the Ottawas, even as

other tribes know the justice of Ottawa

law. Manitu give Ottawa a law. And I

reckon Manitou wouldn't like you having

slaves that were not taken in battle,

chief. This hunter of squas stole those

white women, chief. He hasn't the

courage to do battle with men. You say

you not steal white women. Oh, what's

the difference, Chief? They're here,

aren't they? You hear, Tamiska? He

speaks with a tongue of a serpent. Under

the eye of Manitou, I'll fight him for

those captives. If he wins, they stay.

If I beat him, they go free. Don't

listen to him, chief. Let me and my

friends take care of him. Wait.

You wise in Ottawa law, Hawkeye.

Many to place hand on true one.

Ottoa takes slave only from battle. Test

of knives prove who speak with straight

tongue.

Hawkeye die. Tisca by captives. What's

the sense of this, Tamisa? We went to a

lot of trouble bringing them to you.

Test of knives for eyes of money too

only.

They may call you Hawkeye cuz you're

good with a gun or with a knife.

The captives are free. Oh my, that's so

good.

[Music]

Look,

[Music]

get him, girl. Ladies, ladies, we want

them all in one piece for the trial.

[Applause]

Hawa law is good, chief. But remember,

before Manitu, no man or woman should be

a slave, whether red or white. The

bravery of Hawkeye will make Tamisa

remember.

[Music]

Mrs. Sandy, meet your new sister,

Matilda. Well, this is the first time

we've ever celebrated Christmas in the

spring. Well, a cup of cheer tastes just

as good in April as it does in December.

When all people are happy, not matter

what season. And we couldn't be happier.

Thanks to you both for bringing us

together and making us a real family

again. Hawkeye, Mrs. Shandi loves you

and thanks you. Well, thank you, Mrs.

Shandi.

Mrs. Shandi loves you and wants to thank

you too. Well, here Mrs. Shandi is very

smart lady. She knows that now is season

for everyone love each other.

Join us again at this same time next

week for another of James Fenomar

Cooper's gripping tales of the early

American frontier. Another exciting

adventure of Hawkeye and his blood

brother Chingk,

last of the Moheakans.

[Music]

Heat.

[Music]

Heat.

[Music]

The immortal pen of James Phenomore

Cooper

brings you thrilling tales of

excitement,

blazing action on the early American

frontier,

stirring adventures filled with the dare

caring and courage of Hawkeye,

first of the long rifles, and his blood

brother Ching Nutk, last of the

Moheakans.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Well, my compliments to you, son. He

sure took care of that red skin. What

happened? He was trying to shoot you in

the back. But I'm afraid I'm not in the

best of shape for this sort of thing. I

haven't had a go at Indian wrestling

since I was a boy. Reckon he saved us

from being bushwacked? Kind of like to

know who we're thanking. I'm left tenant

John Eneing. Royal rifles on route to

Fort Oshkosh. Since when are the army

trade them red coats for buckskins? My

uniform's neatly tucked in my pack. A

spanking new left tenant like myself has

to be presentable when he reports to a

common for the first time. Yuing. Of

course, old General Euing's boy. You

couldn't be anyone else. I Yes. Do you

know him? Yeah, you too. When you're

about that high. One of my first jobs

was scouting for your paw. He was good

soldier. And so was my grandfather

before him. Right. Proud to meet you,

Lieutenant. I'm called Hawkeye. It's

Chingage Cookook, my blood brother. It's

a pleasure. More like our pleasure. I

guess we wouldn't be standing here at

John if you hadn't jumped on him.

You'll find yourself mighty welcome at

Fort Ashkosh. Folks thereabouts still

remember your paw. I requested my

assignment here because I've always felt

this country was home. I speak and

several other Indian tongues. I was

brought up knowing all the Indian ways.

You take

may believe your father general not

bring prisoner to fort first time.

[Music]

Leftenant John Yuing reporting as

ordered, sir.

Well, it is, Lieutenant. We're glad to

have you with us, Yuing.

Uh, Hawkeye, Major, how did you fair

with the prisoner? Nothing short of

torture will make him open his mouth.

Maybe I didn't make myself clear, major.

That Winnebago is the left tenant's

prisoner, not mine. He captured him when

Chingage Cookook and me weren't even

looking. Single-handed, eh? Not quite,

sir. I was well supported. I might not

have been so brave if Hawkeye and Ching

Cookook weren't nearby. I don't throw a

bushel over your light. That was

drawing a beat on us. left tenant came

along, spoiled his aim, and took him as

pretty as you please. It'll be a

pleasure to report this to your father.

I'd rather you wouldn't, sir. But Euing,

I'm sure your father would be most

proud. It's a personal matter, sir. Very

well, Yuing.

I have some business with Hawkeye. I

want you to listen. It may brief you on

some of our problems. Yes, sir. Get

comfortable, Hawkeye. This may take some

time.

The capture of that brave wearing warp

paint confirms the rumors that the

Winnie Beos have joined Elie Wasset and

his renegade band. Elly Waset? That was

the name of my boyhood playmate. His

father was a council chief for the

Senica. Tamakqua, a signer of the peace

treaty. Tamaka was dead. He was rejected

the treaty and has been raising a

hornets's nest ever since. We were blood

brothers like you and Chinguch.

Why? But when I left for England, he

traveled a 100 miles with me just so we

could be together that much longer.

Lieutenant, it's unfortunate, but uh

playful young cubs do grow up and become

deadly marauders. Now, by the day after

tomorrow, our ammunition wagon should

leave from headquarters. They're coming

by way of Big Lake. Now, without them,

or if they should fall into Elie Waset's

hands, nobody in this fort would be

safe. Somebody ought to keep an eye on

Elie Waset's camp. There isn't a scout

in the fort who would volunteer for the

assignment. De was a sharp as a fox and

capture means death by torture.

Sir,

I'd like to volunteer for the

assignment. I admire your courage,

Lieutenant, but this calls for

experienced scouts, woodsmen.

You got him, Major.

You're always a step ahead of my

request, Hawkeye. How many men do you

need? More men just be in the road. When

can I expect you back? Oh, weak, maybe

two. Depends on what we run into. Well,

good luck. I'd rather have luck than

brains anytime, major. And thank you.

Bye, Lieutenant.

Could I speak to you in confidence, sir?

Well, certainly, Lieutenant. Sit down.

What's on your mind?

I'm rather embarrassed to bring this up,

sir.

It's that personal matter.

It concerns my relationship with my

father. Are you quite sure I'm the

proper person to discuss an uh intimate

matter with? Quite sure. You see, sir,

it's a problem of being accepted for

what you are. Just because you're the

chief of staff's son doesn't mean you'll

get any special consideration under my

command. If you really mean that, Major,

why did you give Hawkeye the duty I

volunteered for? Well, I merely chose

the man best qualified for the job.

Without meaning any disrespect, sir, may

I remind you that Hawkeyee is risking

his life with an enemy whom I can face

as a friend. You're referring to Ellie

Wasset. He's nobody's friend. When Neil

Wesset and I were boys together, we

established a set of signals to identify

each other in the woods. I haven't

forgotten them, and I'm sure he hasn't.

If I can only speak to him, I'm sure I

can convince him to come in peacefully.

You put me between the hammer and the

anvil, Yuing.

If anything were to happen to you, how

would I ever explain to your father that

I sent a green left tenant into the

enemy's camp? There you are, sir. My

father again.

If I were left tenant Jones and propose

this, would you let me go?

Prepare to leave. I'll have Hawkeye wait

for you. Yes, sir.

[Music]

[Applause]

We're getting near Illywit's camp. Keep

your eyes peeled. He might have scouts

out.

[Music]

Cynica Winnebago.

[Applause]

You still want to pow with that buzzard?

Under that face is the boy I knew. My

blood brother.

His brother only to wolf now. Want to

sink fangs into white man. You stay

here. Lieutenant Chingkook and me are

going to circle around. Try to get in

closer. We got to find out what Elie was

up to. But I came along to talk to him.

Now you're a soldier. Lieutenant got to

know it isn't good tactics to risk all

your troops at the same time if you

don't have to. Very well. I'll wait here

until you get back. We don't. It's up to

you to get word to Major Duffy about

this gathering of the tribes.

Together,

the Sica and Winnie Bago will bring

flame and arrow to white devils

everywhere.

[Music]

We will drive them from the land of our

fathers

as manu.

The left tenant heard this. He wouldn't

be so fired, anxious immediately, was

it?

[Music]

[Music]

He walked like sheep into Dan of Hungry

Wolf. We can't help him now. Let's keep

the hair in our own heads. All we can do

is pray that the Ili was the friend the

left tenant thinks he is. It's been a

long time, my blood brother, but I knew

you'd never forget. I was never forget

anything. I promised you the moment I

got my commission, I'd come back home.

My brother is Yankee soldier now, left

tenant. And this is my first assignment

to speak to you about keeping the peace.

I convinced my major that two blood

brothers like ourselves could smooth out

the difficulties without resorting to

violence. Like time when we were young,

make small peace council. Exactly. I

knew you'd see it this way once we got

together again.

Return with me to Fort Ashkosh. Elie was

bringing some of your warriors. These

chiefs, too. Now that we're both grown

up, we can have a big peace council.

Looks like he might get away with it

after all. Never before me see sheep

pull fangs of wolf. How many warriors I

bring? 10, 15. A god of honor befitting

a leader like yourself. Major Duffy will

be more than pleased to welcome you.

All go to fort. I not know which to

choose. You know your worries better

than I do. Willy Wesset. Why not select

the bravest for this honor? I choose

Keris

Anti.

You want go to fort?

Need gun, not lance. You won't need any

weapons.

You wrong.

Need plenty weapon when take fort. Take

the fort.

You can't mean what you're saying, my

blood brother. No white man. I was blood

brother. I was cut blood tie 12 moon

ago. White men come to my father's tepee

filled with fire water. Shoot Tamakqua.

Kill my mother. And now Elie Wash should

kill all white men. And you Yankee

soldier tell where get gun for war path.

Take him to torture stick.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Blunt of Ily was in his veins make him

brave much torture. But him still white

man. Heart like rabbit make tongue tell

everything. We go now. Get wagons. Get

many guns.

[Music]

We get guns.

follow. See what they're up to. And you,

my brother, I'm going to go pick up

what's left of our friend.

[Music]

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Well, there's only one thing we can do

now, Hawkeye. March towards Big Lake. At

least we might be able to help those

wagons get through. Sound General

Quarters, full packag. Too late to help

wagons now. Illywaset captured. Kill

everybody.

[Music]

Now I'll have to accept Yuing's

resignation. Such a fine, promising

career. He had to throw it all away

because he was too weak a soldier to die

with his lips sealed. Indian torture

much cruel.

They can make a man forget he's got a

soul, let alone loosen his tongue. Just

believe he'd only listen to you instead

of signaling Ellie was it. I reckon you

or me might have done the same thing.

Pretty hard to believe that your own

blood brothers turned into a dirty

double cross and snake. Well, actually,

I'm as much to blame as he is. I should

never have let him go with you in the

first place. Yeah, I reckon I was wrong,

too. Shouldn't have left him alone.

Where's the left tenant now? Pegging.

Well, what's done is done. We can't sit

here lamenting.

The order for general quarter stems. I

want every able body ready with a half

an hour. Major, that's an order you

ought to think over. You're leaving the

fort awful easy pickings with no one to

defend it. I have no choice. Well, that

depends on what Elaset's up to. Me

follow Ellywaset and Braves to camp.

They make victory dance. Victory dance.

If I know anything about Winnebago,

there's no telling how long they'll keep

celebrating. They sit around talking and

boasting about what they're going to do

next. In that case, attack is my best

defense. We'll take them by surprise.

Not in red coats, Major. Out in the

forest, they're a little too bright to

surprise anyone. It's a job for the

militia men. I have more than 20 under

my command. Well, that's plenty for what

I got in mind.

Well, I've always respected your

judgment when it comes to Indian

fighting. Hawkeye, I'll issue the

orders. When do you plan to leave? After

nightfall. And just in case Elie was got

a couple of braves watching us, we'll

leave by the back way. I'll see you

then.

Oh, you going someplace? You know as

well as I do that I resigned my

commission. Yeah, the major did say

something about it. Did he tell you had

I not resigned, I'd have had to face a

court marshal.

Well, as much as I know about those

court marshals, left tenant, I reckon

they're the same as any other kind of

trial, you got to be proven guilty

before you're convicted. Nothing has to

be proved in my case. I admit my guilt.

I admit divulging a military secret.

I admit I'm not a soldier in the Euing

tradition. No, you didn't exactly

volunteer those answers to Elie Waset.

Bigger and stronger men than you have

cracked wide open when tied to a torture

stake. Leave me alone, Hawkeye. I'm not

worthy of your sympathy.

Well, I didn't come here to dole out any

of that.

I came here to ask your help. Help?

from me. It's pretty rare finding men

who know the woods around here like you.

I need men like that. If I was ever to

be stopped. I don't belong in the

forest. I was wrong when I thought this

was my home. This place is through with

me and I'm through with it. I'm going to

get as far away from it as I can. Well,

I I don't blame you for thinking that

way after the beating you took.

Ching Cookook and me and a handful of

militia are going out tonight after Ely

was. No matter what you think about

yourself, I'd be right proud to have you

alongside me.

[Music]

Well, if you happen to change your mind,

why give me a holler?

[Music]

[Applause]

Well, good hunting, Hawkeye. I only wish

I was going with you. Someone's got to

stay and look after the store. Major,

you seen anything? A Yuing? Yes, he left

this afternoon. Say where he was headed?

He mentioned some place out west. Some

place the Indians call Kentucky. Oh, I

wish he'd told me that. Got an old

friend down there. He could have looked

up fellow by the name of Daniel Boone.

If he here to fight by side of Hawkeye,

militia men not need to leave warm beds.

I'm afraid this is one time, Chinggook,

when you're going to need all the

firepower you can muster. Now, stop

ftting, major. We'll get out of this

mess yet. Somehow, when you're on the

side of right, you usually come out on

top. Well, good luck.

[Music]

big snow cover everything. Me Scott from

here to Bendon River. No tracks. Yeah,

but we'll have to move carefully after

that point.

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

white men come. Be ready.

[Music]

[Applause]

No shoot. Send a medicine man before you

ambush.

Hear me, white man. Gity man too sent

his curse on you. Death is a lot. You

cannot escape his pendants. Keep the men

here. I'm going to see if I can get that

fell to swallow some of his own

medicine.

Hear me, man. Two. An enemy approaches.

Make his knees like water. Cause his

blood to run cold.

You've been doing a powerful heap of

gabin, medicine man. Suppose you listen

to me for a change. Don't you recognize

me, Hawkeye? You deploy. You're heading

straight into Elie Was and his braves. I

hurl the lance of war into the ground.

It will mark your grave.

Take back your lance, medicine man. Tell

your people we don't want war. Where's

he hidden? You must die.

Behind me to your left. Manitu wants

peace just as we do. Where'd you get

that outfit? Had to be in its original

owner. I spit on you and all white men.

Hurry. Take cover. They won't shoot

while I'm here. Hear me, man. Two.

Make our arms strong. Let not the guns

of enemy touch my people. Curse all

white men. Give us their scalps to adorn

our lodges. We will roam free as did our

fathers.

We're surrounded like sitting ducks.

Don't make any sudden moves, but ease

toward cover. Hear me, old man. I dance

to you. Him. No medicine man.

[Music]

Shoot. Shoot.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Need a message.

[Music]

First you want kill.

Now try help.

Why? I didn't want to kill you. It It

was my duty.

After him.

And no matter what you've done, I can't

hate you. You're still the blood brother

of my boyhood.

[Applause]

My blood

and your blood

go into earth

and with it I wash its hate.

Maybe one day under kind eye of manitu

in the happy hunting ground

we be blood brothers

again.

And so for rendering service beyond the

call of duty, it is recommended that

Lieutenant John Euing be awarded the

Medal of Parliament. A full account of

his heroic act accompanies this

recommendation. Signed, Major Richard

Duffy, commanding officer Fort Oshkosh.

The original of that letter was sent to

General Alfred Euing, Chief of Staff.

He'll be proud that I've joined the

ranks of the Euings, just as I am, sir.

Oh, by the way, Lieutenant, while we're

at it, we may as well make something

else official. I came across this among

my effects the other day. Can't imagine

how it got there. Some nonsense about uh

your resignation.

If you don't mind my saying, Major,

sounds like something one of those Cica

medicine men would have done. Medicine

men do many strange things.

[Music]

American frontier. Another exciting
