THE ADVENTURES OF CAPTAIN WYATT

I, Lieutenant Richard Tufts, Navy of the United States,

realize the perilous journey accomplished here in Florida,

in the year 1840.

My map told me little about Florida and on my mission.

I knew out there took place the most fierce war in our history,

The war against wild and bloodthirsty enemies ...

The Seminole Indians.

Seven years ago they had crushed our troops

and foiled the strategy of our chief General Zachary Taylor.

I was ordered to serve under his command, that's why I was sailing

My boat skirted the Atlantic coast of the peninsula to a hidden bay.

I climbed aboard a boat that played a key role

in this expedition.

Lieutenant Tufts, the frigate Norfolk.

Go to your report to Captain Quincy Wyatt

His scout will lead you to his "chikee".

This was the beginning of my mission.

The boat hauled ashore traveled inland,

to the largest inland lake called Okeechobee.

Where I hoped but did not expect me to find her

With my guide, I penetrated to the interior

to meet Captain Quincy Wyatt.

We rode westward through an almost impenetrable region

which seemed to offer no obstacle to my silent companion.

Tie them good sailor.

- Captain Wyatt life here? - His "chikee" is not far away.

What is a "chikee"?

- Never been to Florida? - No.

Y has to see your sword.

A "chikee" is a thatched hut

built on dry land called a "hammock". A house.

You say he lives here? Why is not it the garrison?

Because we are in Florida.

No ! Indian Creek is one of Georgia, one of the men of Quincy.

Hi, Charlie.

Shaking hands with an Indian, it is very tiring.

Sit here.

These Indians feel bad.

They coat of skunk oil to keep insects and flies.

We moved on a course of weird and wonderful water

which wound through lush region.

This land for which we fought so fiercely

A jungle.

Superb!

Mysterious !

Deadly!

Want a little wheat, Lieutenant? The journey is not over.

No thanks.

Do not believe those who say that the Seminoles did not know how to shoot.

Since they buy guns, they have learned and do very well.

Why Captain does he live here?

After what happened, Quincy hates soldiers.

He wants to see his men.

It is not I who will tell you what happened.

In your place, I do not questionnerais Quincy.

Despite myself, my curiosity was aroused.

What kind of officer he was to escape the army he served?

But the burning sun above me made me forget this.

Where the river died between heaven and earth.

An island.

Shimmering like a jewel facing the jungle.

On this island ... the "chikee" Captain Wyatt.

Hello, Hank.

What was I telling you ?

Hello, Gedonia.

It's going to get him.

He wants to know what for.

This is the first time he sees a sword and someone like you.

It's a lovely boy.

Does it belong to the Creek Indians?

He is the son of Captain Wyatt.

I am sorry.

Why be sorry?

Nothing, it's just ...

Where is the "squaw"? I would like to know.

The wife of Captain Wyatt was not a squaw, Lieutenant.

But a creek princess, daughter of a great leader,

and beautiful as a picture. You will not see.

She is dead.

And I saw the man with whom I had to live

the most extraordinary adventure of my life.

Quincy Wyatt,

soldier, marshes,

nobleman, wild!

Watch these two eagles! You see?

Quincy never returns from hunting or fishing without their room.

Hello, Quincy. A guy from the Navy wants to see you.

- Tufts Lieutenant, US Navy. - Enchanter, You have not had any trouble?

No. It went unnoticed.

How long do you think it will take to move your boat to the lake?

Before you answer, sir, I want to say that you have my sympathy.

What do you mean ?

Well, my boat is just big enough to hold 40 men.

This is fine, this is the number of men I have left in my company.

40 men to cross Florida and resume a fortress?

It's suicide!

Maybe, but we need to end the refueling Seminole.

As the Indians hold the fort, they have weapons.

Such an attack is doomed to failure.

The fort was built by General Garcia large Spanish military architect.

You can not take less than a brigade.

What you say is alarming, did you say to General Taylor?

No, the Admiral did, and the general was quite rude to him.

The admiral thinks that General drink much.

If he is, he was probably drunk when he devised this mad project.

Too bad you thought that this is a foolish project Lieutenant,

because I am the author.

Regarding my 40 men ...

In the swamp they are worth a brigade.

If you'll excuse me, I change myself and we'll go to headquarters.

Well, I put myself in trouble.

You will see many more, here.

Look at the other side of the lagoon.

This is the beginning of the Everglades ... or the end, if you prefer.

Do you know what's in it?

So deep swamps they can swallow an army.

In fact a fine mess you will be served ..

Your sword fascinated my son.

- He would like to have it. - I understand that.

I too have a boy of the same age in Boston.

Do you know what would make him happy? The tomahawk that you wear on a belt.

Your son still has his mother?

Yes of course.

He is lucky ... very lucky.

He loves this little rascal. This is the best thing that he is coming.

If anything happened to him, he would not survive it.

Quickly we went to the headquarters.

I look forward to meet for the first time man

which seeks to end this war once and for all ...

General Zachary Taylor.

- Quincy Ready? - Ready.

You can always go back if you want.

Nothing can stop me except the Seminoles.

If you beat them, you will make me a very important general.

That's my intention.

Destroy this strong Quincy and I put myself in motion.

Finally, we will restore peace in the territory.

Rally!

Take care of yourself !

Place here!

- Ready for Inspection Captain. - You got the replacements?

- The best of the brigade. - They should be.

These stripes are very good on you.

I hope to wear them as well as Corporal Malory done there.

- Otherwise you would not have them. - Thank you, Captain.

Glad to see you in the ranks Tibbett.

They came close to scalp me.

- Your name ? - James W. Tasher, sir.

- You fought the Indians? - Yes, the Black Hole of territory.

Well, no need to ask how you got here.

- What name do you respond? - Private Jessup, sir.

How long in the army?

I joined the Fusiliers in Massachusetts, sir.

For 3 years, 8 months and 26 days.

Try to go through with your commitment.

So, Lieutenant, what do you think of them?

They seem to be soldiers, but are not alike.

Maybe not, but the Ocala leader would give a pearl handle each.

And a whole basket to Quincy.

It gives value to your head, to be with us.

So Mohair, you have to complain?

It turns out that yes, sir.

- ... And the sergeant treats you badly. - How the hell you know Captain?

Glad to hear that all is well, Mohair.

- They look fine, sergeant. - Thank you sir.

- Let's get moving. - Yes sir.

Wear!

Weapons!

Right, right!

Forward, march!

What do you think of the expedition now, Lieutenant?

I reserve my opinion for when we get there ...

... And return.

Well, we count on your boat for it ... if it floats.

Scouts, go ahead!

In the company of this strange troupe,

I walked by the lake to the point of rendezvous with my boat.

Here we are. Lake Okeechobee, the Indians call ...

"Many waters".

The Seminoles are on the other side, 50 miles.

Well, she seems to float.

- Pair, Boatswain. - At your service. Remove the mainsail.

black veil, eh?

The Indians are less likely to view it in the moonlight, I think.

You know mate, we go over and under our plan seems insane.

If we are separated, try to come back here.

The ship will resume tomorrow at sunset. On the way.

While en route.

You feel ?

The Gulf.

If the bay is out there, the fort must be here somewhere.

I did some calculations, we need to be about 8 miles too far north.

Come take a look.

I'd better reconsider my calculations.

Seeing these walls, I'd better reconsider mine.

At nightfall, with some men, I will try to reach the gates.

Others await you open them.

Traffickers of weapons.

With any luck, this evening we will terminate their business.

Bring out the horses and mules.

Shane, detach a team to find the arsenal.

Yes sir. Let's go!

Lieutenant, take some men and sabotage the cannons.

Peachtree !

With fireworks start placing loads. We need to identify quickly.

Beautiful shipping. Without problems.

We are not yet output from here. Sullivan!

Take some men and search every room.

- Mohair? - Yes sir.

- How many losses? - I am trying to count, sir.

Give him a hand.

Captain! We found the arsenal here.

Enough to war for a hundred years.

Made Europe. These renegades have imported these things everywhere.

Do all jump!

Captain, we found prisoners.

There are others ?

Yes sir. There are other outside.

Bring her out with others. I do not have time for it.

Yes sir.

Who is this man ? It seems that I have upset.

This is Captain Wyatt, ma'am.

Oh ? Amelia, go get my coat.

Captain Wyatt says we can go now.

God thank you, you came.

Two months, we retained. My poor wife, and all those other ...

You are safe now. The guns are neutralized?

The charges are in place, Captain. The locks are ready.

Wait for my signal.

- Shane, made out of here. - Yes sir.

The Seminoles will hear the explosion 100 miles and know where we are.

- Accelerate, we're almost there. - Señor, we are going too fast.

It's impossible. My wife is ill. It can not continue.

We can not stop.

Hiff !

Wear it.

Wyatt !

Post your guard on the sides and scouts in the rear.

Men can eat, but no fire.

And not cigarettes. Chew tobacco if you want.

Comment va-t-elle ?

She will not go through.

Where do they come from ?

He and Ms. Duprez had a plantation. The other worked for them.

Smugglers burned everything, They wanted to loot the boss.

And she ?

They do not know much about her. I think this is a society lady.

Why ? Because she has a good?

Talking about the swamp, if you like,

right there, there is the Everglades.

A swamp, when you enter, there is little chance of escape.

Eh! Oh ! down !

- What is the problem ? - I'm worried it's too quiet.

I do not like it.

Well, we're all a bit nervous.

The Indians are approaching quickly. A whole army.

Stay down.

Fisher, send the rearguard.

Backward ! Backward !

Backward !

Backward ! Come back, you fools! You'll get killed!

Back, fools! They'll kill you!

Fall back.

We can not hold them back, Captain. They're too many.

Very good. This way !

- In the marshes? - Yes, in the marshes. Let's go!

Come on, gentlemen. Let's go. On the way.

Wyatt! Now you will die!

Wyatt you hear me? You are dead !

They send messages.

They got the message.

Signed: "Chef Ocala." All the Indians had the Everglades.

Listen everyone.

I guess you know we're in trouble.

We can reach the boat,

and there is only one way to go is through the 150 miles of swamp.

Our only alternative is to walk, so we put way now.

I do not agree with you. Captain Wyatt.

I recognize that you order, and I'm just an observer of the Navy.

But in this situation, I think my opinion should be taken into account.

What is your opinion, sir?

Well, my boat on the lake, sir.

And I know my boatswain, will scan the lake to our research.

Contrary to what you think, I think there is no much danger.

Stay here tonight, let us turn around and try to board again.

Keep talking, Lieutenant.

It is not by insubordination, sir.

I just gave my opinion on the strategy ...

On the way.

You are a lucky man.

Do you know what kind of snake it was?

A water moccasin, its bite is deadly.

How a woman like you know something like that, ma'am?

I have dealt with many snakes, Lieutenant.

Keep moving.

Alligators ! alligators !

Tell them exactly where you saw the last time Captain Wyatt.

They entered the swamp about 200 meters from the landing point,

Southbound.

- They know the place. - They know very well.

They say Wyatt in a hundred chance to get out alive.

If anyone can find them, it's them, but God knows where they are now.

We entered more deeply into the great marsh.

Our escape death face the Seminoles,

but certain death awaited us in this jungle rot.

Very good. Stay here for a while.

You think about what I think?

They are exhausted, they can not walk.

Hey, these two trees would be fine, right?

It will take too long to dig dugouts for everyone.

I did not think at all men, only half.

Sit there is not prudent. The Indians should not be far away.

They can not walk, but we must continue.

To where, Quincy?

Remember the Indian burial ground?

The one we encountered in seeking Major Dayton?

It is the center of the territory of the Seminoles.

We will not stay long.

Those who do not remain to build canoes, will stay long there.

You and Monk go with your platoon. I stay here with the group of Peachtree.

I can not do that, Captain.

I will not let you get slaughtered here.

I'm staying. You and Shane go.

Look, until further notice, it is I who command to the end.

Sulivan, if I do not return, there is a liquor bottle in mos bag for you.

At times like this, J'voudrais be my cousin. It is in the cavalry.

Rejoice, Mohair, If you do kill you, maybe you yourself réincarneras horse.

If I do it, not walk behind me, I'd give you a shoe shot in the head.

It will be a difficult journey, but you must do it in four days.

Now, with a little luck we will catch you.

Put yourself in motion, Shane, and good luck.

Well, gentlemen. Forward.

Do not delay, Quincy.

It's nice of you, Lieutenant, share your ration with me.

It's nothing, ma'am.

Once the canoes ends, it will not be long before you can make a good dinner.

The first thing I'll do, eat mushrooms prepared by Paul Colbert ...

the Griffin Club, Savannah.

Savannah, madam? I know it well. I stayed in office for one year.

Oh, then you've probably eaten at the club.

Young people rarely go Lieutenants Griffin Club, they can not afford it.

If you return to Savannah, Lieutenant I invite you there. I promise you.

I visited several times the Delian Companies.

You are surely gone there?

Oh yes. Of course. The ... the ...

The poetry readings Tuesday night were beautiful.

Yes, one of the best activities of the company.

What are your favorite poets, Lieutenant?

I have a penchant for Shelley.

Me too.

The last poem I read was this wonderful ode to a bird,

But I do not remember what bird it was.

Oh yes. Um, was not that the blue bird?

I do not believe.

It will come to me.

A conversation more refined and interesting.

Excuse me madam. I have to take care of something.

I can join you, Captain?

Well, that is not the Griffin Club, but take up.

- Oh. You have also been to Savannah? - No.

Tell me !

This does not make you blush to speak that way ...

- You a peasant girl? - Peasant ?

Only a peasant recognizes another. What part of Georgia you?

Okefenokee. I was raised in the squirrel meat and pine nuts, like you.

- How do I expose you? - At your approach.

For home, we tie the leg of the girls for their first shoes.

That's what happened to you?

I still have the mark string on my shins.

Or have you learned this pretentious language? not to Okefenokee.

Oh, Charleston, New Orleans, Savannah. Where gold is flowing.

There are none here. What do you do in that territory.

I left New Orleans to Savannah when my ship was attacked.

What about the other passengers?

The head of the smugglers could not find them as interesting as me.

And how it ended?

You found me in this dungeon.

He put me there so I could ... Think.

So ?

The rats were becoming bigger every day.

You came just in time.

Why are you coming with me? What bothers you?

Since you ask, I'm curious if we get out of here alive.

Why should you more than others?

Because I have a lot to do.

I made plans for too long to see it end in a swamp.

The only thing I can say ...

to rest assured ...

my goal is not to kill myself.

Delighted to this dinner with you. I hope you've had enough of Colbert fungus.

- What happened to your face? - Ah! I bumped into a branch.

The branches are deadly, especially if you do not have soap.

Remember your sentries, we will embark.

We'll do it right away.

Evans and Smith with me, the rest load equipment.

- Well enjoy your bath? - I did not go far enough.

I think I saw men climb trees.

It should not be the Seminoles. You always have your hair.

You mean some of these men were spying on you?

Why did not call me?

You mean you were not with them, Lieutenant?

Why, madam ...

All the canoes!

Captain Wyatt! Captain Wyatt!

Make a camp here for a few hours.

We stay here. You can eat.

- Thanks corporal. - We can eat?

I eat so much corn, I feel like a chicken.

You want something ?

I was wondering.

Wondering what?

How many cloth, I could do with your panties suede ...

Dressed in fashion,

with a pair of patent leather boots,

tailcoat jacket with a shirt and a fancy silk tie wire.

You'd be smart to Savannah, walking in Drayton Street.

In this street I could be elegant, but here I would look ridiculous.

You would come to Savannah?

Non.

It's a shame.

I had an idea ...

could you please, but I guess you like that kind of life.

Well, not this way, particularly, but ...

it's nice where I live.

That he is so good about this place?

You know it.

You wake up in the morning, and you're happy to go fishing ...

- Or kill a deer. - You wander all day,

and briers and slugs on your legs.

So you end up full of insects, eating a squirrel or possum.

Maybe, but at night I sleep like a king.

Yes. Cold and alone.

I guess you would not return to this kind of life, right?

Goodnight your Majesty.

Here .

These calm the growling of your stomach.

Fish and turtles! Nothing but fish and turtles.

It will push me gills

If you want to do a hunt, get away from there to shoot.

I'd shoot well right now, to finish.

We'll never get out of here.

I do not like to hear that kind of talk.

Hear me, all of you!

The Sergeant Shane and the bunch are waiting for us at this Indian cemetery!

Do you know where he is?

It is walking distance from my island, and then we will be safe!

From there we will send a runner at headquarters and come out alive!

Now eat this fish and put us on the road.

Fellas you heard what the Captain said. Eat some of that good fish.

Dreaming of Savannah?

How did you know ?

It's so important to you?

Its very important.

This is the only thing that is important to you?

Leave me alone. Stay away from me.

You probably prefer these stylish men of Savannah?

Instead I hate.

Oh, so you ca hiding. You want revenge for the entire city.

Not the entire city. Just a man.

Whoever tied up your leg?

I tied myself.

It was he who brought me the shoes.

luxury shoes?

This was not how ca began.

That's the way it occurred.

You did not protest?

I was too young to protest about anything.

My father did,

but he was a farmer, and rich people know how to take care of farmers.

I found him dead when I woke one morning.

They said he had been run over by a truck,

but I never saw a truck leave whip marks on a man.

Do you have a solution ?

Yes. I put a lot of years that, and now I'm ready.

On my return. They will see that the rich are not the only ones to use the whip.

When dandy to dress me the other day,

imagining me in this costume, it was for that?

You thought I would have helped you to use a whip?

Perhaps.

I'll see you in the canoe.

Day after day,...

we paddled towards our point of rendezvous with Sergeant Shane.

Then late one afternoon, at the exit of a curve of the river,

everything became suddenly silent.

Even the birds sang more.

It was hard to breathe.

Death seemed weighed in air.

Needless to say we finally neared the cemetery,

the legendary cemetery Seminole.

They are not here.

- They should be here. - Yeah.

I do not like it. Dude, I do not like AC at all.

We will wait !

It's an interesting thing how Seminole buried their warriors

they sit them put their paintings of war,

a fresh bowl of food with them and glue their favorite weapon in his hands.

Then they cover.

With a large head, like this,

they put the first new baby to be born after his death.

Why do they do a thing like that?

They believe that the spirit enters the body of the first newborn.

To a great leader like that,

they do not want the mind to be transmitted to a person unclean.

I can tell you, Captain?

It is not that men are afraid, Captain,

but they thought maybe we should get out of here.

They know what we do. We expect Shane.

Yeah, sure, but they assumed that since Shane had to be here before us,

that, well, maybe he will not come.

We will wait.

You can tell them that.

Think like the others, that we should be drawn here?

- A question or you want my opinion? - Both.

You like the sergeant and the old trapper, right?

I also like men who are here.

It makes things difficult.

Hard with you that want to return to Savannah.

What do you want me to say, I do not want to return to Savannah?

Why do you ask me?

In your mind the decision is already made.

I know we'll stay.

Captain Wyatt, someone comes.

Dispersion, covered.

This way.

Is Monk.

Where's Shane? What happen?

I was on the front, guiding the group.

the only thing I know, the Seminoles have closed behind me.

They let me go, but they opened fire on the squad.

you have never seen anything like it in your life.

someone escaped? Shane?

I do not know. It was a real butcher.

The Seminoles, Captain. They come by here.

Well, let us out of here. 're moving quickly.

- You can walk, Monk? - I've had training.

Forget the canoes. They must have expected.

Faster ! Hurry up!

Good. In water. Hurry up, now!

Keep moving.

Someone comes.

Captain! He wears Shane equipment.

- Let me do the talking, Captain. - We do not shoed ca.

We know how to do with these vermin. Monk.

attach it.

It is here, Quincy. A beautiful.

Look at this ! Caution.

In a village near here. Some of our men are inside!

- Maybe they are still alive. - Maybe a hundred Seminoles also.

They are looking for us. Only the guards remained.

- Can you believe it? - We'll know soon.

Peachtree, take two men and stay with women.

You come with me.

Who does it, Mohair?

We find the men, but alas!

- The next I see, I did not kill him. - That's enough !

Captain Wyatt! Captain Wyatt! The Seminoles.

All covered.

We will hold! Join women! Keep going!

Go ahead!

Not stay here! Continue to move forward.

- I'll carry it, Captain. - Do not bother. He is dead.

On the way.

Monk takes them on my island. It's not far from here. They will be safe out there.

- I'll keep them. - Captain.

Pull you here. I will keep them away from you.

Tibbett !

Come rot devils! Follow me !

Tibbett! We are here ! Come with us.

Come Dirty red skin! Look here!

- New Captain Wyatt? - No sign of him, sir.

Give up the search.

Cross out the men from the list of assets.

Are you able to reach the island and get his boy?

No sir. There are too many Indians between here and that island.

The entire nation so Seminole Everglades

We will attack, save his son. We owe much to Wyatt.

Colonel, send your outposts. We will move the brigade as soon as possible.

Go ahead. Moving forward. Do not slow down. It's almost my island.

Here is the island of Captain. We have succeeded.

Well, what are you waiting? Come ! On the way !

We are on the verge of being there.

Wait!

We will stay here and will fight.

Either way they will kill us, then take some of them with us.

Now dig, and we will fight them here.

Yeah! Okay. Let's go!

Stay covered.

Cease fire!

Look at that, we discouraged them.

It's getting dark. They do not like to fight at night,

But at dawn they will come screaming and shouting.

The moonlight makes me more affectionate.

Spread the word. Beware of tricks.

Mohair !

Yeah?

Mohair, I heard something.

So farm there.

See this sword, it looks like he will end up in foreign hands.

"The best laid plans of mice and men often do not materialize"

I intended to give it to the son of Captain Wyatt.

His son ?

Oh, you did not know about him.

A boy of about 6 years.

Black hair and piercing eyes.

Captain Wyatt was married to a princess Creek.

She was pretty as a heart.

Now they are both gone.

Maybe he is not dead. Maybe he ran away.

That's what I tried to persuade me about her mother,

until I find her murdered.

That's why you fight them.

That's why you hate the Seminoles.

It was not the Seminoles who killed her.

They were soldiers.

Soldiers ?

The soldiers were killed?

So how can you ...

You wonder how it could have happened, how can I be one of them.

No ? you wonder how I can live without revenge.

They were young,

They were young and drunk,

They were new to the area,

and for them all Indians looked alike.

Of course I could have killed them, and all the men in blue uniforms, but ...

if you are a good person, something inside of you remember,

and you are holding.

You know you can not spend your life trying to get revenge.

You know you can not have a grudge forever.

- Drumbeat. - He will come others.

Stay down, now. Keep an eye on your neighbor.

It will soon be updated. Then they will attack us.

I think we're going down a hundred.

Perhaps no one has to kill someone,

excepter...

a.

Go with women.

If AC goes wrong, you know what to do.

And does not deflate you in the end.

Do not ca. Do not try, Quincy.

There you are not fit.

Do what I said.

File.

Ocala !

Ocala, you hear me?

Ocala! Are you a woman to send your brave fight?

Do you fear Wyatt to surround you with all your tribe before you face me?

Why he challenges?

If Quincy kill him, perhaps others will lose their courage and flee.

Out of your hiding and come face me where crocodiles are ...

in water.

Confronts me with your favorite weapon ...

the knife.

Well, Quincy, this could have been a great day.

Yeah.

Yes.

It is. Ca sure is!

Quincy. I just want to make sure it's you.

I wanted you to death a hundred times.

I had lost hope of seeing my boy.

We find 10 miles from here, hiding in the jungle.

It seems impossible to kill Wyatt.

It's not for lack of trying.

After what you did, I think even a general will be safe out there.

If I'm not back in a month, come get me.

Here .

I have this for him, he always wants.

Here .

On your return you could be a hero to your son with ca.

Thank you very much. I would tell him her story.

I hope everything will be as you want to Savannah.

I do not think so,

because I would not go.

You can not have a grudge forever.
