1
00:00:02,502 --> 00:00:04,571
(Train whistle blowing)

2
00:00:10,944 --> 00:00:12,946
(Theme music playing)

3
00:00:52,118 --> 00:00:54,687
(People cheering) (Upbeat
piano music playing)

4
00:00:54,821 --> 00:00:57,090
(Indistinct chatter)

5
00:01:03,263 --> 00:01:05,932
(Cheering continues)

6
00:01:06,066 --> 00:01:07,267
As the lawyer representing

7
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,111
the business interest in
scalplock, Mr. Calhoun,

8
00:01:09,135 --> 00:01:12,072
I'm telling you something has to be
done about the way your crew behaves.

9
00:01:12,205 --> 00:01:14,007
They're giving this
town a bad name.

10
00:01:14,140 --> 00:01:15,842
Monday morning
matter, Mr. Wilson

11
00:01:16,743 --> 00:01:19,179
(sniffing) Oh, Kentucky wheat.

12
00:01:19,312 --> 00:01:20,413
Prairie sweet. Smell that.

13
00:01:20,547 --> 00:01:23,483
(Sniffs) Hmm. Very poetic.

14
00:01:23,616 --> 00:01:27,020
Now I can think of nothing more
entrancing to do on a Saturday night

15
00:01:27,153 --> 00:01:30,256
than smell the fragrance of
Kentucky wheat, prairie sweet.

16
00:01:30,390 --> 00:01:32,392
I've been looking
forward to it all week.

17
00:01:32,525 --> 00:01:34,360
(Chuckles) The
night's young, Julie.

18
00:01:35,295 --> 00:01:36,696
Mr. Calhoun.

19
00:01:36,830 --> 00:01:38,830
Barnabas, let's get a
couple of sacks of this wheat,

20
00:01:38,898 --> 00:01:41,167
and three sacks of oats.
Make it four sacks of oats.

21
00:01:43,269 --> 00:01:46,840
So, you figure the crew's giving the
town a bad name, huh, Mr. Wilson?

22
00:01:46,973 --> 00:01:49,209
Surely you can hear
and see for yourself.

23
00:01:49,342 --> 00:01:50,810
I hired those men, Mr. Wilson.

24
00:01:50,944 --> 00:01:52,512
I don't own them.

25
00:01:52,645 --> 00:01:55,982
Now six days a week they break
their backs for me laying track.

26
00:01:56,116 --> 00:01:58,227
What they do on a Saturday
night's their own business.

27
00:01:58,251 --> 00:01:59,719
Then you won't do
anything about it.

28
00:02:00,186 --> 00:02:01,754
No.

29
00:02:01,888 --> 00:02:04,424
I figure with the money
that they spend in here,

30
00:02:04,557 --> 00:02:06,368
the town can put up
with a little bit of noise.

31
00:02:06,392 --> 00:02:08,561
Don't be surprised if
the citizens of this town

32
00:02:08,695 --> 00:02:11,030
make a complaint to
the federal marshal.

33
00:02:11,164 --> 00:02:12,732
As it is, he spends
more time here

34
00:02:12,866 --> 00:02:14,400
than any place
else in the territory.

35
00:02:14,868 --> 00:02:16,069
He'll listen to us.

36
00:02:16,202 --> 00:02:17,737
Good night, Mr. Calhoun.

37
00:02:18,705 --> 00:02:19,706
Miss Parsons.

38
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:21,307
Good night.

39
00:02:21,441 --> 00:02:22,976
I'll get your order
together tonight,

40
00:02:23,109 --> 00:02:25,478
and you can have it first thing
in the morning, Mr. Calhoun.

41
00:02:25,612 --> 00:02:26,679
Thank you, Andy.

42
00:02:28,281 --> 00:02:30,216
Andy, I'll stay a
while and help you.

43
00:02:30,917 --> 00:02:31,917
Ready, Julie?

44
00:02:32,018 --> 00:02:34,621
Oh, yes, I've been
ready for the past hour.

45
00:02:34,754 --> 00:02:37,257
You sure you don't
plan any further detours?

46
00:02:37,924 --> 00:02:38,925
(Chuckles)

47
00:02:39,058 --> 00:02:40,336
Well, I could go
by the livery stable

48
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:41,770
and pass the time of
the day with the smithy.

49
00:02:41,794 --> 00:02:43,563
This must be the
wrong Saturday night.

50
00:02:43,696 --> 00:02:47,066
(Chuckles) Or we could
go out for a walk, and, uh,

51
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,236
take a look at the moon, the
stars, and the old mill stream.

52
00:02:50,370 --> 00:02:52,272
Well, that sounds much better,

53
00:02:52,405 --> 00:02:55,041
providing, of course, that you
don't stop and buy one of each.

54
00:02:55,608 --> 00:02:56,943
(Chuckles softly)

55
00:02:59,245 --> 00:03:00,513
(Both laugh)

56
00:03:00,647 --> 00:03:02,682
The heavy stuff's in the
store room, barnabas.

57
00:03:02,815 --> 00:03:04,317
Better take a lantern there.

58
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:35,448
(Clattering)

59
00:03:35,582 --> 00:03:38,184
Careful in there, barnabas.
Don't tear up the place.

60
00:03:40,253 --> 00:03:42,188
The oats are over
near the alley door.

61
00:03:52,131 --> 00:03:53,199
Hey...

62
00:03:56,903 --> 00:03:58,004
What're you doing?

63
00:03:58,404 --> 00:04:00,506
No. No!

64
00:04:01,274 --> 00:04:02,342
(Screams)

65
00:04:04,711 --> 00:04:05,778
Andy?

66
00:04:08,681 --> 00:04:09,682
Andy?

67
00:04:21,060 --> 00:04:22,061
(Door closes)

68
00:04:48,688 --> 00:04:52,091
I told Calhoun this would
happen, marshal. I warned him.

69
00:04:52,225 --> 00:04:54,060
All those hooligans in town.

70
00:04:54,193 --> 00:04:56,663
Now, go home, Mr. Wilson,
there is nothing you can do here.

71
00:04:56,796 --> 00:04:57,864
Go on home, boys.

72
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:08,241
How much money was taken?

73
00:05:08,374 --> 00:05:11,844
Near as I can tell about
$90, maybe a little more.

74
00:05:13,112 --> 00:05:14,147
Senseless.

75
00:05:18,384 --> 00:05:19,919
Now let's go over it again.

76
00:05:20,053 --> 00:05:22,097
Maybe there's something you
can remember about the man.

77
00:05:22,121 --> 00:05:23,121
Anything.

78
00:05:23,222 --> 00:05:24,791
Just the boots.

79
00:05:24,924 --> 00:05:26,604
That's all I saw. They
were that different.

80
00:05:27,060 --> 00:05:29,195
I tried to help
old Andy, I tried.

81
00:05:30,163 --> 00:05:32,432
But I just couldn't
move fast enough.

82
00:05:33,032 --> 00:05:34,100
Marshal.

83
00:05:34,934 --> 00:05:36,536
Barnabas has had enough.

84
00:05:36,669 --> 00:05:38,705
Whoever killed old
Andy is far gone by now.

85
00:05:38,838 --> 00:05:41,507
Well, he'll keep on going unless
we get something more definite.

86
00:05:41,641 --> 00:05:43,576
A pair of boots
isn't much to go on.

87
00:05:43,710 --> 00:05:45,678
Dave: There's nothing
more we can do tonight.

88
00:05:45,812 --> 00:05:48,014
I wanna talk to him
again in the morning.

89
00:05:48,147 --> 00:05:49,482
Take him over to the saloon,

90
00:05:49,615 --> 00:05:51,415
give him a couple of
drinks and put him to bed.

91
00:05:54,087 --> 00:05:57,690
You're lucky to come away from
that with just a bump on the head.

92
00:05:57,824 --> 00:06:01,260
I'm just grateful that you weren't up
in front of the store with poor old Andy.

93
00:06:01,394 --> 00:06:02,962
Have another drink, barnabas.

94
00:06:04,330 --> 00:06:06,065
You've had too much already.

95
00:06:06,199 --> 00:06:09,202
Now sometimes "too much"
is just what a man needs.

96
00:06:10,103 --> 00:06:12,038
I need you to teach
him bad habits?

97
00:06:12,672 --> 00:06:14,073
(Laughing)

98
00:06:18,511 --> 00:06:20,380
Whoo-hoo!

99
00:06:23,216 --> 00:06:24,517
What's the matter here?

100
00:06:25,551 --> 00:06:27,220
Saturday night here, ain't it?

101
00:06:28,388 --> 00:06:29,622
Where's the piano player?

102
00:06:30,390 --> 00:06:31,758
(Plays off-key notes)

103
00:06:31,891 --> 00:06:33,593
Billy pardew wants some music!

104
00:06:36,396 --> 00:06:38,631
Hey! Mr. Calhoun. (Laughing)

105
00:06:38,765 --> 00:06:40,967
Have a good time,
Billy, but don't overdo it.

106
00:06:41,100 --> 00:06:42,602
(Billy continues laughing)

107
00:06:48,674 --> 00:06:49,842
Billy: Hey, you...

108
00:06:54,280 --> 00:06:55,281
(Grunts)

109
00:06:57,617 --> 00:06:59,685
Mr. Calhoun, let me go!

110
00:06:59,819 --> 00:07:01,621
Let me go, Mr. Calhoun. Stop!

111
00:07:01,754 --> 00:07:02,922
He killed old Andy.

112
00:07:03,055 --> 00:07:04,290
He's the man!

113
00:07:04,424 --> 00:07:05,868
You sure about this, boy?
He's the man who did it?

114
00:07:05,892 --> 00:07:07,326
Yes, sir! His boots!

115
00:07:07,460 --> 00:07:09,228
The boots! I'd recognize
them anywhere.

116
00:07:09,362 --> 00:07:10,402
That's good enough for us.

117
00:07:14,233 --> 00:07:16,035
Anybody here

118
00:07:16,169 --> 00:07:17,437
feels that they're qualified

119
00:07:17,570 --> 00:07:19,290
to judge the guilt or
innocence of this man,

120
00:07:19,405 --> 00:07:21,607
then we'll turn him over to you.

121
00:07:23,009 --> 00:07:25,278
Unless you're prepared
to give me that proof,

122
00:07:25,411 --> 00:07:27,613
you're gonna have to go
over the top of us to get at him.

123
00:07:27,747 --> 00:07:30,349
All right, Mr. Calhoun. The
law can have him for now.

124
00:07:30,483 --> 00:07:33,119
But I'm telling you, if the law
don't deal with him, we will.

125
00:07:43,095 --> 00:07:44,130
Find any money on him?

126
00:07:44,263 --> 00:07:45,431
Ninety-three dollars.

127
00:07:45,565 --> 00:07:47,266
I'm sure glad to see
you, Mr. Calhoun.

128
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:48,568
Barnabas.

129
00:07:48,701 --> 00:07:50,236
That's a fact.

130
00:07:50,369 --> 00:07:52,872
I just ain't got no stomach
for hard liquor, I guess.

131
00:07:53,005 --> 00:07:54,005
Come to bail me out?

132
00:07:54,073 --> 00:07:55,074
Not this time, Billy.

133
00:07:55,975 --> 00:07:57,553
I want you to take
off one of your boots,

134
00:07:57,577 --> 00:07:58,878
and hand it through the bars.

135
00:07:59,011 --> 00:08:00,346
(Chuckles) What'd I do?

136
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,615
Break a window, or some
furniture or something?

137
00:08:02,748 --> 00:08:03,983
I'll pay for what I did.

138
00:08:04,116 --> 00:08:06,085
Mr. Calhoun here can
take it out of my pay.

139
00:08:13,392 --> 00:08:14,727
Yes, sir. They're
the same boots.

140
00:08:14,861 --> 00:08:15,895
Same one as what?

141
00:08:16,529 --> 00:08:17,697
What's going on here?

142
00:08:17,830 --> 00:08:19,270
I want you to take
a good look at him

143
00:08:19,365 --> 00:08:21,167
and see if there's anything
else you recognize.

144
00:08:25,271 --> 00:08:27,139
He's about the same
size, that's all I can say.

145
00:08:27,273 --> 00:08:29,175
All right, barnabas.
Wait outside.

146
00:08:34,013 --> 00:08:36,415
Where were you last night
between 8:00 and 8:30, Billy?

147
00:08:36,549 --> 00:08:39,085
Well, there was a poker
game, down at the depot.

148
00:08:39,218 --> 00:08:40,863
That's where I was
until I went to the saloon.

149
00:08:40,887 --> 00:08:41,927
Were your uncles with you?

150
00:08:42,054 --> 00:08:43,656
Billy: Jess was.

151
00:08:43,789 --> 00:08:46,235
Uncle Albert was supposed to
come around, but he didn't show up.

152
00:08:46,259 --> 00:08:48,327
Jess and me, we give him
half our pay to hold for us.

153
00:08:48,461 --> 00:08:49,462
We're saving up.

154
00:08:50,429 --> 00:08:51,469
But he didn't come around.

155
00:08:51,564 --> 00:08:53,099
Anybody else who
could vouch for you?

156
00:08:53,232 --> 00:08:55,301
You know how them poker
games are, Mr. Calhoun.

157
00:08:55,434 --> 00:08:57,036
People drifting
in and drifting out.

158
00:09:00,940 --> 00:09:02,308
What's going on here?

159
00:09:03,075 --> 00:09:04,410
I've got a right to know.

160
00:09:04,544 --> 00:09:06,812
Old Andy was killed last
night in the feed store.

161
00:09:07,246 --> 00:09:08,481
About ten o'clock.

162
00:09:08,614 --> 00:09:09,782
Old Andy got killed?

163
00:09:12,151 --> 00:09:13,452
You think I done it?

164
00:09:15,121 --> 00:09:16,956
You don't think
that, Mr. Calhoun.

165
00:09:18,024 --> 00:09:19,358
Well, you don't think I done it.

166
00:09:19,492 --> 00:09:20,526
I don't know, Billy.

167
00:09:21,527 --> 00:09:22,628
I really don't know.

168
00:09:32,204 --> 00:09:33,806
Uh, we didn't come
to make no trouble.

169
00:09:33,940 --> 00:09:34,974
I just wanna talk to him.

170
00:09:35,808 --> 00:09:37,143
You can have five minutes.

171
00:09:40,479 --> 00:09:42,582
Billy: Uncle Albert! Uncle Jess!

172
00:09:43,716 --> 00:09:45,284
Hey, there, Billy!

173
00:09:45,418 --> 00:09:46,519
I've fetched him.

174
00:09:46,652 --> 00:09:48,654
Everything's gonna
be all right now, boy.

175
00:09:48,788 --> 00:09:50,022
Uncle Albert...

176
00:09:50,156 --> 00:09:51,357
I've been praying you'd come.

177
00:09:52,291 --> 00:09:53,459
You hear what they're saying?

178
00:09:53,593 --> 00:09:54,994
They're saying I
killed somebody.

179
00:09:56,128 --> 00:09:57,608
Well, then we'll have
to convince them

180
00:09:57,730 --> 00:09:58,731
that they're mistaken.

181
00:10:01,100 --> 00:10:02,969
But I want to hear the
whole story from you.

182
00:10:04,704 --> 00:10:06,606
This could turn into
a mighty long day.

183
00:10:09,709 --> 00:10:11,510
Boy's uncles work
for you too, huh?

184
00:10:13,179 --> 00:10:15,081
Al's the foreman on
the number one gang.

185
00:10:15,214 --> 00:10:16,983
Jess and Billy work on
the number two gang.

186
00:10:18,784 --> 00:10:21,654
Circuit judge is due in this
afternoon on his regular rounds.

187
00:10:23,189 --> 00:10:25,291
I got a hunch we better
get Billy to trial right away

188
00:10:25,424 --> 00:10:26,784
or we may not
get him there at all.

189
00:10:32,198 --> 00:10:33,599
I thought you
were Billy's friend.

190
00:10:33,733 --> 00:10:35,468
How come you lied
about seeing him there?

191
00:10:35,601 --> 00:10:37,903
Mr. Pardew, I'm sorry,
but I saw his boots.

192
00:10:38,037 --> 00:10:39,372
Well, you're mistaken.

193
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,341
Take my word for it, Ben.

194
00:10:42,475 --> 00:10:44,010
That boy in there
didn't kill anybody.

195
00:10:44,143 --> 00:10:46,612
He'll have a chance
to prove that in court, al.

196
00:10:46,746 --> 00:10:48,626
The first thing we gotta
do is get him a lawyer.

197
00:10:50,816 --> 00:10:53,219
I've been wanting to talk
to you about barnabas.

198
00:10:54,020 --> 00:10:55,521
What about him?

199
00:10:55,655 --> 00:10:59,358
Well, I've noticed him some
sort of moping around the depo

200
00:10:59,492 --> 00:11:01,761
and Billy pardew used
to be his friend, didn't he?

201
00:11:01,894 --> 00:11:03,129
Yes, he was.

202
00:11:03,262 --> 00:11:05,531
Well, I think barnabas
is all torn up about,

203
00:11:05,665 --> 00:11:07,266
you know, what he has to do.

204
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,244
I don't think that it's good
for him to be left alone

205
00:11:09,268 --> 00:11:11,671
while you and Dave
are in Millers falls.

206
00:11:11,804 --> 00:11:13,372
So you know our
work schedule too?

207
00:11:15,374 --> 00:11:17,643
Well, I just thought that
maybe he could come

208
00:11:17,777 --> 00:11:19,445
to work for me
while you're gone.

209
00:11:19,578 --> 00:11:21,414
You know, help
out around the store.

210
00:11:21,547 --> 00:11:23,683
It might take his
mind off the things.

211
00:11:23,816 --> 00:11:26,519
I can't leave here
until this is all over with.

212
00:11:26,652 --> 00:11:29,655
Miners up at Millers falls
are just gonna have to wait.

213
00:11:29,789 --> 00:11:32,224
I appreciate your suggestion.
I think it's a good one.

214
00:11:33,726 --> 00:11:34,994
Incidentally,

215
00:11:35,961 --> 00:11:37,396
you still owe me half a date.

216
00:11:43,903 --> 00:11:44,970
Ben.

217
00:11:46,505 --> 00:11:47,840
Ben, did you get a lawyer?

218
00:11:48,441 --> 00:11:50,109
No, not yet.

219
00:11:50,242 --> 00:11:52,078
Well, maybe you
better know something.

220
00:11:52,211 --> 00:11:54,146
That boy's like a son to us.

221
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,949
He was our sister Alice's child.

222
00:11:57,083 --> 00:11:58,951
She died with a fever
when he was just a baby.

223
00:11:59,085 --> 00:12:01,120
We raised him up.

224
00:12:01,253 --> 00:12:02,922
He had a little too
much to drink maybe.

225
00:12:04,223 --> 00:12:06,559
And maybe it was
my fault because I...

226
00:12:07,560 --> 00:12:09,361
I let him go without
me into town.

227
00:12:10,496 --> 00:12:12,698
And maybe he gets a
might willful when he's drunk

228
00:12:12,832 --> 00:12:14,100
but he never killed that man.

229
00:12:14,233 --> 00:12:15,735
I understand how you feel.

230
00:12:16,769 --> 00:12:18,904
It's gonna be up to
a jury to decide that.

231
00:12:19,839 --> 00:12:21,040
You're an honest man.

232
00:12:22,708 --> 00:12:23,976
You know that a track hand

233
00:12:24,110 --> 00:12:26,110
ain't gonna get a fair
shake here. Not in this town.

234
00:12:26,212 --> 00:12:27,213
(Horse neighing)

235
00:12:41,127 --> 00:12:43,696
What's the matter? Who is he?

236
00:12:43,829 --> 00:12:46,599
Pelham's his name.
He's the circuit judge.

237
00:12:49,502 --> 00:12:50,669
He's gonna try Billy?

238
00:12:52,071 --> 00:12:53,072
Yes.

239
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,642
I've seen him once
over rising creek.

240
00:12:59,311 --> 00:13:01,881
He hung three
horse thieves there.

241
00:13:02,014 --> 00:13:05,985
Man in town told me
that judge's got rope fever.

242
00:13:06,118 --> 00:13:10,055
That no accused man ever left his
court without the sentence of death.

243
00:13:10,189 --> 00:13:12,658
I give you my word,
Billy's gonna get a fair trial.

244
00:13:12,792 --> 00:13:14,593
I'm tellin' ya. He
told you the truth.

245
00:13:15,661 --> 00:13:17,363
He was in a poker game,

246
00:13:17,496 --> 00:13:19,231
and he went to the
saloon to celebrate.

247
00:13:19,365 --> 00:13:20,366
You gotta believe him.

248
00:13:20,499 --> 00:13:21,539
It's not important whether

249
00:13:21,567 --> 00:13:23,035
I believe it or not.

250
00:13:23,169 --> 00:13:26,372
Important thing is that Billy
makes the jury believe it.

251
00:13:26,505 --> 00:13:27,705
His life's gonna depend on it.

252
00:13:42,922 --> 00:13:44,857
Judge pelham,
this is Ben Calhoun.

253
00:13:45,524 --> 00:13:47,293
You sent him a subpoena.

254
00:13:47,426 --> 00:13:49,795
I'm sure you don't mind
waiting, Mr. Calhoun.

255
00:13:50,229 --> 00:13:51,330
Uh...

256
00:13:51,463 --> 00:13:53,032
Who's the undertaker
in this town?

257
00:13:53,165 --> 00:13:54,333
Harvey Ferguson.

258
00:13:55,434 --> 00:13:57,903
See if he has a coffin handy.

259
00:13:58,037 --> 00:14:00,606
Standard, six-foot, pine.

260
00:14:00,739 --> 00:14:03,843
And I want a jury. Any
number from six to 12 will do.

261
00:14:03,976 --> 00:14:06,912
This is your authorization
to hire two carpenters

262
00:14:07,046 --> 00:14:08,113
for the gallows.

263
00:14:15,054 --> 00:14:17,489
You order a coffin
even before the trial?

264
00:14:17,623 --> 00:14:20,259
I have one day in
town, Mr. Calhoun.

265
00:14:20,392 --> 00:14:22,828
I hold court seven days a week.

266
00:14:22,962 --> 00:14:25,397
I have jurisdiction over
10,000 square miles,

267
00:14:25,531 --> 00:14:28,834
and I have to order things in
advance in case I need them.

268
00:14:28,968 --> 00:14:30,212
Did it ever occur to
you that Billy pardew

269
00:14:30,236 --> 00:14:31,637
might be innocent?

270
00:14:31,770 --> 00:14:34,273
Real life is not a dime
novel, Mr. Calhoun.

271
00:14:34,406 --> 00:14:35,541
He appears to be guilty,

272
00:14:35,674 --> 00:14:37,109
I'd be surprised if he wasn't.

273
00:14:37,243 --> 00:14:41,013
In my 20 years on the bench,
I've never been surprised.

274
00:14:41,146 --> 00:14:43,182
So you order a
gallows, build a coffin,

275
00:14:43,315 --> 00:14:44,683
and get it over with, huh?

276
00:14:45,184 --> 00:14:46,485
Not quite.

277
00:14:46,619 --> 00:14:48,220
I can't find a lawyer
to defend him,

278
00:14:48,354 --> 00:14:51,557
so I'm looking for a
literate man to defend him.

279
00:14:51,690 --> 00:14:54,793
The way you sounded here
I'd say you're a logical choice.

280
00:14:54,927 --> 00:14:55,995
Me?

281
00:14:56,729 --> 00:14:58,464
Sorry. Not a lawyer.

282
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,403
If you don't defend him, he'll
end up having to defend himself.

283
00:15:04,536 --> 00:15:06,472
Nobody in this town
will raise a hand.

284
00:15:07,907 --> 00:15:10,175
And if I do defend him and lose,

285
00:15:10,309 --> 00:15:11,987
then you could hang
him and ride out of town

286
00:15:12,011 --> 00:15:13,679
with a clear
conscience, is that it?

287
00:15:14,513 --> 00:15:16,615
I never lose any
sleep, Mr. Calhoun,

288
00:15:17,750 --> 00:15:18,851
and the trial will be held

289
00:15:18,984 --> 00:15:20,352
whether you defend him or not.

290
00:15:23,622 --> 00:15:26,992
Since the town of scalplock
hasn't got a courthouse,

291
00:15:27,126 --> 00:15:30,296
the trial will be held at the church
tomorrow morning at nine o'clock.

292
00:15:30,429 --> 00:15:33,866
Maybe you'd better inform Billy
pardew that you're his legal counsel.

293
00:15:33,999 --> 00:15:35,968
You think that'll make
him feel any better?

294
00:15:36,101 --> 00:15:38,061
At least he'll know that
somebody's defending him.

295
00:15:54,787 --> 00:15:55,788
(Exhales)

296
00:15:57,323 --> 00:15:59,358
Blackstone, chitty, packingham.

297
00:15:59,491 --> 00:16:02,428
And any other set of law
books that we could find.

298
00:16:02,561 --> 00:16:04,761
Ben, are you serious about
going through with this thing?

299
00:16:04,797 --> 00:16:05,931
Somebody has to.

300
00:16:07,132 --> 00:16:10,069
It's gonna be like drawing
to an inside straight,

301
00:16:10,202 --> 00:16:12,204
for higher stakes than
I've ever played for.

302
00:16:12,338 --> 00:16:14,716
What'd Billy say when you told
him you were going to be his lawyer?

303
00:16:14,740 --> 00:16:16,942
What he said all along,
that he's innocent.

304
00:16:17,076 --> 00:16:19,445
And he knows that I'll be
able to convince the town of it.

305
00:16:19,578 --> 00:16:21,947
You heard who the court
appointed as prosecuting attorney?

306
00:16:22,081 --> 00:16:23,148
Sam Wilson.

307
00:16:24,450 --> 00:16:25,551
That doesn't surprise me.

308
00:16:25,684 --> 00:16:26,852
He's gonna be out for blood.

309
00:16:26,986 --> 00:16:29,054
You know I may have
found something here.

310
00:16:31,390 --> 00:16:35,094
Case that has all the same
aspects in it that we've got in this one.

311
00:16:36,328 --> 00:16:39,798
Seems if I can create
enough reasonable doubt,

312
00:16:39,932 --> 00:16:42,801
maybe we can get him off
with a jail sentence and then

313
00:16:42,935 --> 00:16:45,371
have the right to appeal
it and get him a new trial.

314
00:16:49,908 --> 00:16:51,577
You wanted to see
me, Mr. Calhoun.

315
00:16:51,710 --> 00:16:52,745
Sit down, barnabas.

316
00:16:58,217 --> 00:17:01,487
Oh, boy. That's a
nasty bump, barnabas.

317
00:17:01,620 --> 00:17:03,555
I'll get something cold
to hold down the swelling.

318
00:17:04,390 --> 00:17:06,392
You a doctor, me a lawyer.

319
00:17:06,525 --> 00:17:07,526
(Chuckles)

320
00:17:10,662 --> 00:17:15,901
I guess you've heard by now that
I'm gonna act as Billy pardew's lawyer.

321
00:17:16,668 --> 00:17:17,669
Yes, sir.

322
00:17:19,371 --> 00:17:22,374
Since you're the chief
witness for the prosecution,

323
00:17:23,442 --> 00:17:25,644
I'm gonna have to ask you
a lot of questions tomorrow.

324
00:17:26,979 --> 00:17:28,547
Perhaps by the
time I get through,

325
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,350
you'll think I'm the meanest man
this side of the devil's kingdom.

326
00:17:33,085 --> 00:17:35,187
I just want you to know
that it's only your testimony

327
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,456
that I'm questioning, not you.

328
00:17:39,024 --> 00:17:40,092
You understand?

329
00:17:41,193 --> 00:17:42,294
Yes, sir.

330
00:17:43,195 --> 00:17:44,229
Is that all?

331
00:17:45,697 --> 00:17:46,765
That's all.

332
00:17:55,774 --> 00:17:57,576
I know you got to
defend him, Mr. Calhoun,

333
00:17:58,243 --> 00:17:59,344
but he's guilty.

334
00:17:59,478 --> 00:18:01,213
He's guilty as sin.

335
00:18:01,346 --> 00:18:02,981
Nothing you can say
is gonna change that.

336
00:18:12,524 --> 00:18:14,960
Put her up, boys. We're
gonna be pressed for time.

337
00:18:15,094 --> 00:18:16,895
The, uh, trial starts
at nine o'clock, judge.

338
00:18:27,306 --> 00:18:28,474
Hey, al...

339
00:18:29,208 --> 00:18:31,710
Al, what's all the timber for?

340
00:18:33,679 --> 00:18:35,047
They're gonna build a gallows.

341
00:18:36,748 --> 00:18:38,951
But we can't let
them hang little Billy.

342
00:18:50,762 --> 00:18:52,931
No, Jess, they ain't
gonna hang him.

343
00:18:53,065 --> 00:18:54,766
We're gonna get little Billy,

344
00:18:54,900 --> 00:18:57,069
and we're gonna get
us a farm somewheres.

345
00:18:57,202 --> 00:18:58,737
A farm with a fishing creek.

346
00:18:58,871 --> 00:18:59,938
That's right, ain't it?

347
00:19:02,241 --> 00:19:05,177
But they got little
Billy all locked up.

348
00:19:05,310 --> 00:19:07,513
They ain't gonna... They
ain't gonna let him go.

349
00:19:07,646 --> 00:19:10,516
By the time we get through with
'em, they'll let him go, all right.

350
00:19:11,750 --> 00:19:13,952
They're gonna let
little Billy go scot-free.

351
00:19:17,856 --> 00:19:20,425
Wilson: We are not here to
judge the lawless elements

352
00:19:20,559 --> 00:19:22,561
the railroad has
brought into this town.

353
00:19:24,062 --> 00:19:26,198
The brawlers, the drunkards...

354
00:19:27,232 --> 00:19:29,535
No, I ask you to set
aside your prejudices

355
00:19:29,668 --> 00:19:32,638
against these men as a group.

356
00:19:32,771 --> 00:19:37,676
I only ask that you judge this
single act of cold-blooded murder

357
00:19:38,277 --> 00:19:39,845
by a drunken thief.

358
00:19:39,978 --> 00:19:43,048
Who struck down one of the
finest men this town has ever known.

359
00:19:46,251 --> 00:19:47,853
I ask only for justice.

360
00:19:49,288 --> 00:19:52,424
In all conscience you must
return a verdict of guilty!

361
00:19:53,792 --> 00:19:55,561
An eye for an eye, gentlemen.

362
00:19:56,295 --> 00:19:58,297
A life for a life.

363
00:19:59,698 --> 00:20:02,801
Mr. Calhoun, you're entitled to
make opening remarks for the defense.

364
00:20:06,505 --> 00:20:08,240
My opening remark
is, your honor,

365
00:20:09,107 --> 00:20:11,910
I want the whole
matter dropped because

366
00:20:12,044 --> 00:20:14,580
Billy here didn't get
a preliminary hearing

367
00:20:14,713 --> 00:20:16,315
as required by the law.

368
00:20:16,448 --> 00:20:20,152
Eastern law perhaps, but this
is the law of the territory. Denied.

369
00:20:20,285 --> 00:20:22,688
I'm gonna ask something else.

370
00:20:22,821 --> 00:20:26,225
I think we ought to change the
place where this trial is to be held.

371
00:20:26,358 --> 00:20:28,560
"Change of venue" they
call it in the book here.

372
00:20:29,962 --> 00:20:31,230
'Cause I don't think that Billy

373
00:20:31,363 --> 00:20:33,232
can get a fair trial in the town

374
00:20:33,365 --> 00:20:36,485
where the judge has already ordered a
gallows to be built outside the courtroom,

375
00:20:36,935 --> 00:20:38,770
for his execution.

376
00:20:38,904 --> 00:20:41,640
The court has the right
to construct gallows

377
00:20:41,773 --> 00:20:43,775
wherever and whenever
it wishes. Denied.

378
00:20:44,776 --> 00:20:46,411
Anything else, Mr. Calhoun?

379
00:20:49,481 --> 00:20:51,683
Mr. Wilson, call
your first witness.

380
00:20:53,252 --> 00:20:55,187
I call marshal Roy Anderson.

381
00:20:56,788 --> 00:21:00,225
And so the murderer must
have come through the back door,

382
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,961
and waited in the storeroom
until he had his chance.

383
00:21:03,095 --> 00:21:04,696
How was Andy mcguire killed?

384
00:21:04,830 --> 00:21:06,898
Well, there were signs
of a struggle in the store.

385
00:21:07,866 --> 00:21:09,801
But old Andy didn't
have a chance.

386
00:21:09,935 --> 00:21:14,473
The murderer must have picked
up a tack hammer from the counter,

387
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:16,908
and hit him over
the head with it.

388
00:21:17,042 --> 00:21:18,644
Causing his death.

389
00:21:18,777 --> 00:21:19,778
That's right.

390
00:21:21,580 --> 00:21:24,149
Wilson: How much money
was taken from the store?

391
00:21:24,283 --> 00:21:27,819
Well, Andy was checking his cash
register and writing the totals down,

392
00:21:29,187 --> 00:21:32,591
I'd say the killer got
away with about $90.

393
00:21:32,724 --> 00:21:33,792
Mmm-hmm.

394
00:21:34,826 --> 00:21:37,129
Now when the
defendant was brought

395
00:21:37,262 --> 00:21:39,197
into your office
on Saturday night,

396
00:21:39,998 --> 00:21:41,500
did you search him? Yes.

397
00:21:42,534 --> 00:21:43,935
How much money
did you find on him?

398
00:21:45,237 --> 00:21:47,005
Ninety-three
dollars and 25 cents.

399
00:21:48,807 --> 00:21:50,375
Wilson: Your
witness, Mr. Calhoun.

400
00:21:53,845 --> 00:21:56,114
Just got one question, Roy.

401
00:21:56,248 --> 00:21:59,518
Is there anything about that
money that you found on Billy,

402
00:22:00,686 --> 00:22:01,953
to tell where it came from?

403
00:22:02,621 --> 00:22:03,955
No.

404
00:22:04,089 --> 00:22:05,369
So, it could just as easily have

405
00:22:05,490 --> 00:22:06,858
come from a poker game,

406
00:22:06,992 --> 00:22:08,694
isn't that right? I
mean, money's money.

407
00:22:08,827 --> 00:22:12,197
Well, there's nothing to tie that
particular money to the store,

408
00:22:12,331 --> 00:22:13,699
if that's what you're asking.

409
00:22:13,832 --> 00:22:14,833
That's what I'm asking.

410
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:16,601
Thank you.

411
00:22:18,770 --> 00:22:20,038
You may step down, marshal.

412
00:22:24,743 --> 00:22:27,546
Then when he ran out of
the door, I saw his boots.

413
00:22:28,947 --> 00:22:32,217
They had a sort of a red
leather eagle on the front of them.

414
00:22:37,956 --> 00:22:39,424
Take a look at
this one, barnabas.

415
00:22:42,728 --> 00:22:44,463
The, uh, marshal took these

416
00:22:44,596 --> 00:22:47,032
off the defendant just
before the trial, your honor.

417
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:49,534
Yes, sir, they're
the same boots.

418
00:22:49,668 --> 00:22:51,370
(People murmuring)

419
00:22:51,503 --> 00:22:53,839
Ever seen, uh, boots
like these before?

420
00:22:54,506 --> 00:22:55,540
No, sir.

421
00:22:55,674 --> 00:22:58,176
I agree with you.
They're quite unique.

422
00:23:00,512 --> 00:23:03,482
How big was this man who
jumped you in the store?

423
00:23:03,615 --> 00:23:05,751
You testified that you
saw him against the light.

424
00:23:05,884 --> 00:23:07,452
5'10 ", 5'11" maybe.

425
00:23:07,586 --> 00:23:09,388
About the size of the defendant?

426
00:23:12,457 --> 00:23:13,457
Yes.

427
00:23:13,525 --> 00:23:15,293
Wilson: That's
all. Your witness.

428
00:23:34,713 --> 00:23:37,749
Beauregard boot company,
San Antonio, Texas.

429
00:23:40,051 --> 00:23:42,687
They make thousands of
pairs of boots every year.

430
00:23:44,256 --> 00:23:46,525
Now, wouldn't you say
that it was possible...

431
00:23:47,692 --> 00:23:49,060
No...

432
00:23:49,194 --> 00:23:51,363
Wouldn't you say it was probable

433
00:23:51,496 --> 00:23:53,532
that they had made
hundreds of pairs of boots

434
00:23:53,665 --> 00:23:55,467
similar to this in design?

435
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,603
Wilson: He's calling for a conclusion
on the part of the witness, your honor.

436
00:23:58,737 --> 00:24:01,540
The witness can only testify
to his personal knowledge.

437
00:24:05,043 --> 00:24:06,378
Sustained.

438
00:24:06,511 --> 00:24:08,113
Well, then we'll see
if we can't make it

439
00:24:08,246 --> 00:24:09,548
a part of his
personal knowledge.

440
00:24:13,018 --> 00:24:14,085
Come on up here, Tom.

441
00:24:16,488 --> 00:24:17,489
Hoyt.

442
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:23,528
Now, barnabas,

443
00:24:23,662 --> 00:24:24,942
take a good look at these boots.

444
00:24:26,731 --> 00:24:28,342
See if you wouldn't
like to change your mind,

445
00:24:28,366 --> 00:24:30,735
maybe admit you
could've been mistaken.

446
00:24:30,869 --> 00:24:32,971
No, sir, the boots
I saw were black.

447
00:24:33,104 --> 00:24:35,640
(Laughs) I think this
business about the boots

448
00:24:35,774 --> 00:24:38,143
has gone on long
enough, your honor.

449
00:24:38,276 --> 00:24:41,112
Unless Mr. Calhoun intends
to swear these two men,

450
00:24:41,246 --> 00:24:43,448
so that I may cross examine
to make sure that he didn't

451
00:24:43,582 --> 00:24:46,485
provide them with the
boots for this futile display.

452
00:24:47,819 --> 00:24:50,622
Agreed, Sam. I agree with
you. You two can sit down.

453
00:24:53,558 --> 00:24:55,527
Proceed with your
questioning, Mr. Calhoun.

454
00:24:58,163 --> 00:24:59,164
Now, barnabas,

455
00:25:00,298 --> 00:25:02,734
you said that you got
hit in the back room,

456
00:25:02,868 --> 00:25:04,169
knocked down.

457
00:25:04,302 --> 00:25:06,102
Knocked down so hard
that you couldn't get back

458
00:25:06,137 --> 00:25:07,617
up on your feet
right away, is that it?

459
00:25:07,939 --> 00:25:09,140
Yes, sir.

460
00:25:09,274 --> 00:25:10,675
But after you
finally did get up,

461
00:25:10,809 --> 00:25:12,553
you staggered back out to
the main part of the store.

462
00:25:12,577 --> 00:25:14,846
Now you got hit again? Yes, sir.

463
00:25:14,980 --> 00:25:16,281
Any idea what you got hit with?

464
00:25:17,949 --> 00:25:19,251
Uh, well...

465
00:25:19,618 --> 00:25:21,653
(Stutters)

466
00:25:21,786 --> 00:25:23,297
Well, I mean, was it a
fist, was it a gun butt,

467
00:25:23,321 --> 00:25:24,321
what was it?

468
00:25:24,389 --> 00:25:25,891
I don't know.

469
00:25:26,024 --> 00:25:27,926
I mean, I was hit from
behind in the storeroom,

470
00:25:28,059 --> 00:25:29,979
and when I went in the
store he blew out the lamp.

471
00:25:31,463 --> 00:25:33,565
Ben: And you were
barely conscious, right?

472
00:25:33,698 --> 00:25:35,567
Barnabas: Yes. Now,
you're lying there.

473
00:25:35,700 --> 00:25:37,435
Half-conscious.

474
00:25:37,569 --> 00:25:40,409
And a man runs out wearing a pair
of boots, and I take it he was running.

475
00:25:40,539 --> 00:25:42,908
Can't imagine him wanna
hang around there too long.

476
00:25:43,041 --> 00:25:44,643
So how long is that gonna take?

477
00:25:44,776 --> 00:25:46,678
One, two, possibly three
seconds at the most.

478
00:25:46,811 --> 00:25:48,513
I don't know.
About that... maybe.

479
00:25:48,647 --> 00:25:50,749
And now you expect
this court to believe

480
00:25:50,882 --> 00:25:54,452
that you, lying there
half-conscious, in a half-lit room,

481
00:25:54,586 --> 00:25:55,887
could recognize a pair of boots

482
00:25:56,021 --> 00:25:57,522
on the feet of a running man

483
00:25:57,656 --> 00:25:59,800
that was only visible for one,
two, possibly three seconds,

484
00:25:59,824 --> 00:26:02,661
and not only recognize them
but then describe the insignia.

485
00:26:02,794 --> 00:26:04,996
I'm sorry, Mr. Calhoun.
Old Andy needed help

486
00:26:05,130 --> 00:26:07,232
and I couldn't give it
to him, but I could see!

487
00:26:07,365 --> 00:26:08,867
And those were the same boots.

488
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,335
(People murmuring)

489
00:26:11,403 --> 00:26:12,523
Judge: Call the next witness.

490
00:26:13,705 --> 00:26:15,206
I call Jess pardew.

491
00:26:17,342 --> 00:26:20,912
Jess is witness for Billy
here. He's my witness!

492
00:26:21,046 --> 00:26:24,616
We're more interested in the
truth than in protocol, Mr. Calhoun.

493
00:26:25,483 --> 00:26:27,252
Jess pardew will take the stand.

494
00:26:30,689 --> 00:26:32,290
Well, Albert and me
helped raise that boy

495
00:26:32,424 --> 00:26:35,293
since his ma died 15 years ago.

496
00:26:35,427 --> 00:26:36,962
Just answer the question.

497
00:26:37,095 --> 00:26:41,499
Well, we got paid
that afternoon,

498
00:26:41,633 --> 00:26:46,037
and little Billy and I gave
half our pay to Albert to hold.

499
00:26:46,171 --> 00:26:49,507
See, three of us is saving
up. We're gonna buy a farm.

500
00:26:49,641 --> 00:26:51,710
Wilson: How much did
Billy win in the poker game?

501
00:26:51,843 --> 00:26:53,945
Forty-three dollars.

502
00:26:54,079 --> 00:26:55,947
And you're paid $50 per month,

503
00:26:56,081 --> 00:26:58,984
a combined total of $100.

504
00:26:59,117 --> 00:27:04,122
Half going to Albert, leaving
$50 plus $43 allegedly won.

505
00:27:04,255 --> 00:27:06,758
That's $93. That'd be just
about the amount stolen

506
00:27:06,891 --> 00:27:07,969
from old Andy, wouldn't it?

507
00:27:07,993 --> 00:27:09,861
You don't have to
answer that, Jess.

508
00:27:09,995 --> 00:27:11,296
That's right.
You're not required

509
00:27:11,429 --> 00:27:12,998
to respond to that question.

510
00:27:14,766 --> 00:27:17,836
You, uh, didn't leave Billy
at any time during the game?

511
00:27:17,969 --> 00:27:18,969
No, sir.

512
00:27:19,037 --> 00:27:20,538
Did Billy ever leave the game?

513
00:27:20,672 --> 00:27:23,541
No, sir. Not even for one hand?

514
00:27:23,675 --> 00:27:26,144
That's all it need take
for Billy to leave the depot,

515
00:27:26,277 --> 00:27:27,912
Rob the store and
come back again.

516
00:27:28,046 --> 00:27:29,080
Your honor...

517
00:27:29,214 --> 00:27:32,450
I'll, uh, go to another
line, your honor.

518
00:27:32,584 --> 00:27:34,786
You say Billy won
that money in a game.

519
00:27:34,919 --> 00:27:35,920
Jess: Yes, sir.

520
00:27:36,054 --> 00:27:37,398
Wilson: You must've
been pleased about that.

521
00:27:37,422 --> 00:27:38,657
Yes, sir.

522
00:27:38,790 --> 00:27:42,227
I don't think you're telling
us the truth, Mr. Pardew.

523
00:27:42,360 --> 00:27:45,630
You couldn't have been
with Billy at every minute.

524
00:27:45,764 --> 00:27:47,766
Billy showed up at
the saloon by himself.

525
00:27:47,899 --> 00:27:50,201
Now where were you
when he came to the saloon?

526
00:27:50,335 --> 00:27:51,770
Well, I... Isn't it a fact that

527
00:27:51,903 --> 00:27:54,472
Billy lost in that
game, Mr. Pardew.

528
00:27:54,606 --> 00:27:57,075
Isn't it a fact that you went
with him to the feed store

529
00:27:57,208 --> 00:27:59,110
looking for some way
to get back your money

530
00:27:59,244 --> 00:28:01,455
before your brother found out
that you gambled it all away?

531
00:28:01,479 --> 00:28:02,639
Isn't it a fact that you were

532
00:28:02,714 --> 00:28:03,915
waiting outside on the street,

533
00:28:04,049 --> 00:28:06,718
while your nephew, Billy
pardew, killed that old man,

534
00:28:06,851 --> 00:28:09,120
and rifled the cash register.

535
00:28:09,254 --> 00:28:11,532
Now isn't that what happened,
Mr. Pardew? How long can this go on?

536
00:28:11,556 --> 00:28:14,156
He hasn't got one shred of evidence
for any claim that he's making!

537
00:28:14,192 --> 00:28:15,727
I demand an answer
from the witness.

538
00:28:17,062 --> 00:28:19,197
You're out of order,
Mr. Calhoun. Sit down.

539
00:28:19,330 --> 00:28:21,566
(Gavel banging)
Answer the question.

540
00:28:21,700 --> 00:28:24,135
Where were you when your
nephew went to the saloon?

541
00:28:25,570 --> 00:28:27,439
I don't know, uh...

542
00:28:28,373 --> 00:28:30,208
Maybe, uh...

543
00:28:30,341 --> 00:28:32,644
I was looking for Albert.

544
00:28:33,745 --> 00:28:34,746
Or maybe... (Stutters)

545
00:28:34,879 --> 00:28:37,182
I maybe was seeing
after the horses.

546
00:28:39,084 --> 00:28:42,053
(Sighs) See, I
get mixed up by...

547
00:28:43,521 --> 00:28:44,522
Everything...

548
00:28:45,423 --> 00:28:46,758
Goes too fast.

549
00:28:47,492 --> 00:28:49,160
Maybe, that's why...

550
00:28:49,294 --> 00:28:51,563
But little Billy
never hurt nobody.

551
00:28:51,696 --> 00:28:53,732
You've got to believe that.

552
00:28:53,865 --> 00:28:56,167
That's all, Mr. Pardew.

553
00:28:56,301 --> 00:28:58,403
You're gonna let
little Billy go, ain't ya?

554
00:28:59,170 --> 00:29:00,772
Any questions, Mr. Calhoun?

555
00:29:02,407 --> 00:29:03,441
Ben: No. No questions.

556
00:29:06,745 --> 00:29:09,447
I told them little Billy
never hurt nobody.

557
00:29:09,581 --> 00:29:11,021
I think they're
gonna let him go, al.

558
00:29:11,049 --> 00:29:12,350
Now, listen to me.

559
00:29:13,418 --> 00:29:15,520
You've got
something to do. Sure.

560
00:29:15,653 --> 00:29:17,856
I want you to get these things.

561
00:29:17,989 --> 00:29:20,992
You go to the last car
in the train at the depot.

562
00:29:21,126 --> 00:29:22,127
Last car.

563
00:29:22,260 --> 00:29:23,328
I got the door open.

564
00:29:23,895 --> 00:29:24,963
You go inside.

565
00:29:25,764 --> 00:29:27,132
Stay out of sight

566
00:29:27,265 --> 00:29:28,265
and you wait for me.

567
00:29:28,366 --> 00:29:29,968
I'll take care
of it. Sure I will.

568
00:29:32,070 --> 00:29:33,938
Finally, gentlemen,

569
00:29:34,072 --> 00:29:37,175
the law says that you're
to find Billy pardew guilty

570
00:29:37,308 --> 00:29:39,477
only if you are convinced
beyond any reasonable

571
00:29:39,611 --> 00:29:40,678
doubt of that guilt.

572
00:29:42,447 --> 00:29:43,982
Now, "reasonable doubt."

573
00:29:44,115 --> 00:29:45,717
That's a big phrase in this case

574
00:29:45,850 --> 00:29:48,653
because the whole
thing is filled with doubts.

575
00:29:48,787 --> 00:29:51,022
Why do you think that
Mr. Wilson here made such a to-do

576
00:29:51,156 --> 00:29:53,658
about the differences between
the railroad workers and the town?

577
00:29:54,726 --> 00:29:56,227
I'll tell you why.

578
00:29:56,361 --> 00:29:57,729
To play on your prejudices.

579
00:29:57,862 --> 00:29:59,631
Because he didn't have a case.

580
00:29:59,764 --> 00:30:01,065
Oh, he tried to string together

581
00:30:01,199 --> 00:30:03,701
a series of circumstances
and coincidences

582
00:30:03,835 --> 00:30:05,804
to make it look
like he had a case.

583
00:30:05,937 --> 00:30:08,673
But not one piece of
evidence that he brought up

584
00:30:08,807 --> 00:30:10,675
was beyond any reasonable doubt.

585
00:30:12,877 --> 00:30:14,579
Now barnabas Rogers works for me

586
00:30:15,346 --> 00:30:16,714
and I trust him with my life.

587
00:30:17,649 --> 00:30:19,484
But I've known many
a trustworthy men

588
00:30:19,617 --> 00:30:21,853
that at one time or another
could make an honest mistake.

589
00:30:22,821 --> 00:30:24,155
And this time

590
00:30:24,289 --> 00:30:27,358
with the circumstances as we
know 'em by his own testimony,

591
00:30:27,492 --> 00:30:29,427
half-conscious,
in a dimly lit room.

592
00:30:30,595 --> 00:30:32,130
I think he is mistaken.

593
00:30:32,263 --> 00:30:35,733
He is interested in seeing the murderer
of Andy mcguire brought to justice

594
00:30:35,867 --> 00:30:37,335
and hung. Well, so am I.

595
00:30:38,536 --> 00:30:40,438
So is every man in this room.

596
00:30:40,572 --> 00:30:44,242
But I'm just as interested in seeing
that an innocent man is not hung.

597
00:30:44,375 --> 00:30:46,911
So, Billy pardew owned
a pair of boots that were

598
00:30:47,045 --> 00:30:48,813
similar to those
worn by the murderer.

599
00:30:50,215 --> 00:30:52,684
If this court wasn't
in such a hurry,

600
00:30:52,817 --> 00:30:56,254
I could go out of here and
bring in 100 men with black boots

601
00:30:56,387 --> 00:30:58,189
that have a similar design.

602
00:30:58,323 --> 00:31:00,225
But even if barnabas
could remember accurately,

603
00:31:01,359 --> 00:31:03,862
which I don't think he could
under the circumstances.

604
00:31:04,762 --> 00:31:07,031
Is that enough
evidence to hang a man?

605
00:31:07,165 --> 00:31:08,445
Would any of you want to be hung

606
00:31:08,533 --> 00:31:09,810
because you
owned a pair of boots

607
00:31:09,834 --> 00:31:11,436
that was similar
to a murderer's?

608
00:31:11,569 --> 00:31:13,338
Is any of it beyond
a reasonable doubt?

609
00:31:15,740 --> 00:31:17,642
Can you hang a man because...

610
00:31:17,775 --> 00:31:19,777
Because his uncle
Jess couldn't remember?

611
00:31:21,312 --> 00:31:22,447
Because he got confused,

612
00:31:22,580 --> 00:31:24,983
and because Mr. Wilson
here, the prosecutor,

613
00:31:25,116 --> 00:31:27,318
tried to confuse
him even further?

614
00:31:27,452 --> 00:31:30,521
Now the prosecutor
also tried to imply

615
00:31:30,655 --> 00:31:33,091
that Billy pardew left the
card game for one hand,

616
00:31:33,825 --> 00:31:35,593
went down to the store,

617
00:31:35,727 --> 00:31:38,763
and killed a man,
rifled the cash register,

618
00:31:38,897 --> 00:31:41,432
and then got back before
the next hand was played.

619
00:31:41,566 --> 00:31:43,126
Now all of you have
played cards before.

620
00:31:43,902 --> 00:31:45,203
We've all played poker.

621
00:31:46,137 --> 00:31:48,806
How long does a
hand of poker take?

622
00:31:49,741 --> 00:31:52,243
It differs, could
be long or short.

623
00:31:53,444 --> 00:31:55,747
Depends on how the cards
fall, and how the bets run,

624
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:57,248
how many players there are.

625
00:31:57,382 --> 00:31:59,884
Depends on how long it would
take a man to run from the...

626
00:32:00,018 --> 00:32:02,086
From the depot
down to the store,

627
00:32:02,220 --> 00:32:03,821
do what was done,
and then get back.

628
00:32:04,956 --> 00:32:06,658
Is any of this
without its doubts?

629
00:32:08,660 --> 00:32:10,461
Could any of it be beyond
a reasonable doubt?

630
00:32:13,164 --> 00:32:14,499
Now you're all honest men.

631
00:32:14,632 --> 00:32:16,067
I know you to be good men.

632
00:32:17,702 --> 00:32:20,672
I know that none of you would want
to send an innocent man to be hung.

633
00:32:22,340 --> 00:32:24,709
So, I'm gonna ask
you, I'll even beg you...

634
00:32:26,444 --> 00:32:27,645
To go out of here,

635
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,348
and vote for Billy
pardew's acquittal.

636
00:32:35,987 --> 00:32:38,823
It seems to me this is a
pretty open-and-shut case.

637
00:32:39,324 --> 00:32:40,658
So, uh...

638
00:32:40,792 --> 00:32:43,428
It shouldn't take you long
to make up your minds.

639
00:32:44,429 --> 00:32:45,596
Take out the jury.

640
00:32:46,864 --> 00:32:48,399
This court stands recessed.

641
00:32:48,533 --> 00:32:49,567
(Bangs gavel)

642
00:33:09,787 --> 00:33:11,622
There's a gun under
this coat, barnabas.

643
00:33:12,457 --> 00:33:13,891
I'll use it if I have to.

644
00:33:14,025 --> 00:33:15,326
What do you think you're doing?

645
00:33:15,460 --> 00:33:16,527
Not a word, miss Julie.

646
00:33:17,362 --> 00:33:18,763
Now you act like
nothing happened.

647
00:33:20,031 --> 00:33:21,366
Walk natural.

648
00:33:21,499 --> 00:33:22,977
Nothing's gonna change,
Mr. Pardew. You know...

649
00:33:23,001 --> 00:33:24,769
Don't talk.

650
00:33:24,902 --> 00:33:26,971
You've got one chance
to save miss Julie's life.

651
00:33:27,939 --> 00:33:29,107
Don't waste it.

652
00:33:29,540 --> 00:33:30,575
Now move.

653
00:33:37,015 --> 00:33:38,182
Get up there.

654
00:33:38,316 --> 00:33:39,384
Up there.

655
00:33:43,821 --> 00:33:44,822
Get inside.

656
00:33:44,956 --> 00:33:45,957
Door's locked.

657
00:33:46,090 --> 00:33:47,158
Not anymore, it ain't.

658
00:33:47,558 --> 00:33:48,626
Inside.

659
00:33:51,963 --> 00:33:53,164
(Laughs)

660
00:33:53,297 --> 00:33:57,068
Al, did you ever see
anything as pretty in your life?

661
00:33:57,201 --> 00:34:00,705
Old Ben Calhoun do live
high on the hog, don't he?

662
00:34:01,472 --> 00:34:02,512
Now get down the other end

663
00:34:02,540 --> 00:34:03,808
of the car and watch the door.

664
00:34:03,941 --> 00:34:05,176
Oh, sure, al.

665
00:34:05,309 --> 00:34:06,477
Anything you say.

666
00:34:07,311 --> 00:34:08,446
Sit down, barnabas.

667
00:34:08,579 --> 00:34:09,647
Miss Julie.

668
00:34:11,716 --> 00:34:13,618
Look, I understand how
you feel, Mr. Pardew,

669
00:34:13,751 --> 00:34:15,219
but this isn't gonna
solve anything.

670
00:34:15,887 --> 00:34:17,588
I'll take my chances it will.

671
00:34:17,722 --> 00:34:19,123
You got yourself
into this fix, boy,

672
00:34:19,257 --> 00:34:21,359
and nobody else,
by lying about Billy.

673
00:34:21,492 --> 00:34:22,693
But they ain't gonna hang him.

674
00:34:23,461 --> 00:34:24,729
I'll see to that.

675
00:34:24,862 --> 00:34:26,640
But you don't know that
they're going to find him guilty.

676
00:34:26,664 --> 00:34:28,199
There hasn't even
been a verdict yet.

677
00:34:28,332 --> 00:34:30,368
I got eyes.

678
00:34:30,501 --> 00:34:32,470
I saw the stuff they
dumped in the street.

679
00:34:32,603 --> 00:34:34,843
They don't build gallows unless
they aim to hang somebody.

680
00:34:34,872 --> 00:34:37,475
But the jury will make
that decision, not the judge.

681
00:34:37,608 --> 00:34:41,279
If they turn Billy loose,
I'll let barnabas go.

682
00:34:43,014 --> 00:34:44,248
Nothing to worry about.

683
00:34:44,382 --> 00:34:45,926
Well, there's no point in
keeping Julie here then.

684
00:34:45,950 --> 00:34:46,951
Albert: All right.

685
00:34:48,886 --> 00:34:50,922
You go tell Calhoun what I said.

686
00:34:51,722 --> 00:34:53,458
I wanna talk to him

687
00:34:53,591 --> 00:34:55,593
and you tell him he
better make it fast.

688
00:34:55,726 --> 00:34:58,663
But Ben defended
Billy, remember?

689
00:34:58,796 --> 00:35:00,031
Why him?

690
00:35:00,164 --> 00:35:02,233
'Cause Calhoun's the
only man I know who can

691
00:35:02,366 --> 00:35:03,901
keep Billy from swinging.

692
00:35:04,035 --> 00:35:07,305
You tell him, I got a whole
lifetime wrapped up in that boy.

693
00:35:07,438 --> 00:35:08,806
So I got nothing to lose.

694
00:35:16,948 --> 00:35:19,383
All right, now put your hands
behind your back. (Door closing)

695
00:35:19,517 --> 00:35:21,285
You don't have to tie
me up, Mr. Pardew.

696
00:35:23,721 --> 00:35:25,957
You're Billy's last chance.

697
00:35:27,024 --> 00:35:29,961
You get loose,
and I got nothing.

698
00:35:38,669 --> 00:35:39,669
(Bangs gavel)

699
00:35:39,770 --> 00:35:40,850
Have you reached a verdict?

700
00:35:42,707 --> 00:35:43,841
Yes, sir, we have.

701
00:35:43,975 --> 00:35:46,077
We find the defendant
guilty as charged.

702
00:35:46,210 --> 00:35:48,713
With the recommendation that
he be sentenced to a life term

703
00:35:48,846 --> 00:35:49,981
in a territorial prison.

704
00:35:50,781 --> 00:35:52,450
Oh! (Indistinct chatter)

705
00:35:53,651 --> 00:35:56,287
This court is not adjourned.
I will have order here.

706
00:35:56,420 --> 00:35:57,860
It means you're
gonna get a new trial.

707
00:35:59,490 --> 00:36:02,426
In this territory, it is the right
of the jury to render a verdict.

708
00:36:03,361 --> 00:36:04,962
But it is the right of the court

709
00:36:05,796 --> 00:36:06,898
to set the punishment.

710
00:36:08,933 --> 00:36:12,136
Will the prisoner rise
and face the bench?

711
00:36:15,406 --> 00:36:18,376
Billy pardew, do you have anything
to say before sentence is passed?

712
00:36:18,509 --> 00:36:19,744
No, sir.

713
00:36:19,877 --> 00:36:21,445
It is the sentence of this court

714
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:23,814
that you be held in jail

715
00:36:24,515 --> 00:36:25,883
until dawn tomorrow,

716
00:36:26,017 --> 00:36:28,186
at which time you will
be removed to the gallows

717
00:36:28,319 --> 00:36:29,654
to hang by the neck

718
00:36:29,787 --> 00:36:31,355
until dead.

719
00:36:31,489 --> 00:36:34,225
(All clamoring) You won't
get away with this, your honor.

720
00:36:34,358 --> 00:36:35,569
Now we've got the
right to get that boy

721
00:36:35,593 --> 00:36:37,328
a proper attorney
to appeal this case.

722
00:36:37,461 --> 00:36:40,298
Appeal denied. This
court is adjourned.

723
00:36:40,431 --> 00:36:42,833
Mr. Calhoun, he's gonna
hang me! No, they're not!

724
00:36:42,967 --> 00:36:45,078
We can wire the governor,
but I don't think it'll do any good.

725
00:36:45,102 --> 00:36:49,006
Ben! Billy's uncles are holding
barnabas in your private car

726
00:36:49,140 --> 00:36:50,580
and he said you
should get there fast.

727
00:36:52,510 --> 00:36:53,550
All right, come on, Billy.

728
00:36:53,578 --> 00:36:54,755
I gotta take you back to jail.

729
00:36:54,779 --> 00:36:56,280
My uncles ain't
gonna let you hang me.

730
00:36:56,414 --> 00:36:57,648
Come on, let's go.

731
00:37:00,484 --> 00:37:02,153
I can get some men
here, if we need them.

732
00:37:03,054 --> 00:37:04,055
Al's a reasonable man.

733
00:37:04,188 --> 00:37:05,289
I'm gonna talk to him.

734
00:37:05,423 --> 00:37:06,867
I've worked with him,
Ben. I know how he thinks.

735
00:37:06,891 --> 00:37:08,292
Let me talk to him.

736
00:37:08,426 --> 00:37:10,294
We're gonna do it his way.

737
00:37:10,428 --> 00:37:12,196
You go round up the
fireman and the engineer.

738
00:37:12,330 --> 00:37:14,010
Tell them to build up
a full head of steam.

739
00:37:27,411 --> 00:37:28,446
Al.

740
00:37:29,146 --> 00:37:30,414
This is Ben Calhoun.

741
00:37:32,783 --> 00:37:34,218
I'm not armed. Can you hear me?

742
00:37:34,352 --> 00:37:35,686
I can hear ya.

743
00:37:36,887 --> 00:37:38,122
Let the boy go.

744
00:37:38,256 --> 00:37:39,357
Then we can talk.

745
00:37:39,490 --> 00:37:41,192
I hold the high card this time.

746
00:37:42,126 --> 00:37:43,361
Now come on in.

747
00:37:43,494 --> 00:37:44,695
Take it slow and easy.

748
00:37:51,869 --> 00:37:53,437
I see the gallows going up.

749
00:37:53,571 --> 00:37:55,273
The people are on the street,

750
00:37:55,406 --> 00:37:56,807
they found him
guilty, didn't they?

751
00:37:56,941 --> 00:37:57,975
Yes, they did.

752
00:37:58,109 --> 00:37:59,744
That don't leave
me no choice, Ben.

753
00:38:00,544 --> 00:38:01,664
You stay where you are, Ben.

754
00:38:02,413 --> 00:38:03,848
You're an intelligent man, al.

755
00:38:04,782 --> 00:38:05,942
You can't get away with this.

756
00:38:06,050 --> 00:38:07,527
Get out of here, Mr...
Keep your mouth shut!

757
00:38:07,551 --> 00:38:09,487
All right. What's
your proposition?

758
00:38:09,620 --> 00:38:12,089
Barnabas for Billy,
as simple as that.

759
00:38:12,790 --> 00:38:14,158
You bring Billy here,

760
00:38:15,159 --> 00:38:16,494
and saddle us three horses.

761
00:38:16,627 --> 00:38:18,729
The judge is not gonna
let Billy go, you know that.

762
00:38:18,863 --> 00:38:20,765
You find a way, Ben!

763
00:38:20,898 --> 00:38:22,566
I mean business!

764
00:38:22,700 --> 00:38:26,737
You bring Billy here, load the horses
into the baggage car, and take us up north.

765
00:38:26,871 --> 00:38:29,373
There's wild country up
there, and we'll get a fair start.

766
00:38:29,507 --> 00:38:30,675
You can't outrun the law.

767
00:38:30,808 --> 00:38:31,842
We'll make it.

768
00:38:32,910 --> 00:38:34,545
You're giving us the chance.

769
00:38:34,679 --> 00:38:35,680
I'll talk to the marshal.

770
00:38:36,647 --> 00:38:37,847
But it may take a little time.

771
00:38:37,915 --> 00:38:39,216
Better make it fast, Ben.

772
00:38:40,384 --> 00:38:42,353
My Patience is wearing thin.

773
00:38:46,223 --> 00:38:47,224
(Door closes)

774
00:38:49,126 --> 00:38:52,063
I don't know what you have in
mind, Calhoun, but I think he's bluffing.

775
00:38:52,196 --> 00:38:54,799
I say we get some men,
confront him with a show of force.

776
00:39:03,607 --> 00:39:05,109
Now what's holding
you up, Calhoun?

777
00:39:05,910 --> 00:39:07,411
I mean what I say.

778
00:39:07,545 --> 00:39:09,880
He may be bluffing, but we
can't afford to call his hand.

779
00:39:10,581 --> 00:39:12,016
What do you have in mind, Ben?

780
00:39:16,253 --> 00:39:17,693
Now remember, the
most important thing

781
00:39:17,788 --> 00:39:19,457
is he thinks we're
going along with him.

782
00:39:19,590 --> 00:39:21,630
Now start down towards
the jail and then double back.

783
00:39:28,933 --> 00:39:30,935
It'll take a little while, al.

784
00:39:31,068 --> 00:39:32,868
Marshal's gotta go down
and talk to the judge.

785
00:39:35,573 --> 00:39:36,574
(Inaudible)

786
00:40:16,947 --> 00:40:18,482
(Gun fires)

787
00:40:18,616 --> 00:40:20,256
What kind of trick
you trying to pull, Ben?

788
00:40:21,285 --> 00:40:22,686
No trick.

789
00:40:22,820 --> 00:40:24,889
Gotta add on a box car in
order to carry the horses.

790
00:40:26,457 --> 00:40:27,691
Tell him to hold his fire.

791
00:40:28,426 --> 00:40:29,427
Hold your fire!

792
00:40:33,030 --> 00:40:35,666
All right, Dave. Now go
ahead, and uncouple it.

793
00:40:44,241 --> 00:40:45,242
(Clanking)

794
00:41:01,592 --> 00:41:02,593
Dave.

795
00:41:03,794 --> 00:41:05,863
Get those three horses.
Bring them up here.

796
00:41:09,867 --> 00:41:12,169
May take a little while to
get everything arranged.

797
00:41:13,037 --> 00:41:14,104
Mind if I come inside?

798
00:41:16,340 --> 00:41:17,408
All right, come on in.

799
00:41:33,424 --> 00:41:34,558
Mind if I smoke?

800
00:41:35,025 --> 00:41:36,026
Albert: No.

801
00:41:38,195 --> 00:41:39,363
Ben, uh,

802
00:41:40,564 --> 00:41:42,833
I'm much obliged to
you for defending Billy.

803
00:41:42,967 --> 00:41:44,602
Sorry I have to do this.

804
00:41:44,735 --> 00:41:46,036
But there's no other way out.

805
00:41:52,109 --> 00:41:53,444
This isn't a way out, either.

806
00:41:55,145 --> 00:41:58,015
As soon as you take Billy, the
marshal will be right on your trail.

807
00:42:05,256 --> 00:42:06,690
They're trying to trick us, al.

808
00:42:06,824 --> 00:42:07,868
They ain't fetching no horses.

809
00:42:07,892 --> 00:42:09,126
They're just standing there.

810
00:42:09,260 --> 00:42:10,537
Albert: What you
trying to pull, Ben?

811
00:42:10,561 --> 00:42:11,841
Takes time to get all that done.

812
00:42:11,962 --> 00:42:12,963
Not this long.

813
00:42:26,644 --> 00:42:27,945
Back off, Mr. Calhoun.

814
00:42:28,078 --> 00:42:29,413
You back off or I'll kill him.

815
00:42:40,758 --> 00:42:43,394
All right, you had your
try, Ben, and you lost.

816
00:42:43,527 --> 00:42:44,895
Now I'm telling you,

817
00:42:45,029 --> 00:42:48,365
you bring Billy and the
horses here in 15 minutes,

818
00:42:49,266 --> 00:42:50,768
or barnabas is a dead man.

819
00:42:58,842 --> 00:43:01,178
Anyway, we haven't got
time to talk about it now.

820
00:43:01,312 --> 00:43:03,147
As far as I'm concerned,
the matter is closed.

821
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:04,440
Let them stay where they are.

822
00:43:04,481 --> 00:43:06,417
They have ringside
seats for the hanging.

823
00:43:06,550 --> 00:43:09,420
There's not going to be any
hanging. Not tomorrow anyway.

824
00:43:09,820 --> 00:43:11,288
No?

825
00:43:11,422 --> 00:43:14,425
He won't get far. We'll have
him back here in 24 hours.

826
00:43:14,558 --> 00:43:16,527
Judge: You're ready to
replace him, marshal?

827
00:43:16,660 --> 00:43:17,895
Well, you can't do that.

828
00:43:18,028 --> 00:43:20,764
He is a federal prisoner
convicted for murder.

829
00:43:20,898 --> 00:43:23,000
You turn him loose, that
makes you an accomplice.

830
00:43:23,133 --> 00:43:25,436
How many people do you
think are gonna swallow that?

831
00:43:25,569 --> 00:43:27,738
I'm the judge in this
district. I'll make it stick.

832
00:43:28,739 --> 00:43:30,107
They won't hurt your friend.

833
00:43:30,240 --> 00:43:32,443
Swear in some deputies,
show me you mean business.

834
00:43:32,576 --> 00:43:33,896
You think I'm
gonna let you gamble

835
00:43:33,944 --> 00:43:35,813
barnabas's life
on a bluff like that?

836
00:43:35,946 --> 00:43:36,990
Or let your
bullheadedness kill him?

837
00:43:37,014 --> 00:43:38,294
You've got another think coming.

838
00:43:38,382 --> 00:43:40,884
Maybe the judge
is right, Calhoun.

839
00:43:41,018 --> 00:43:42,295
Maybe there's
another way to work it.

840
00:43:42,319 --> 00:43:44,321
We make one move,
they'll kill barnabas.

841
00:43:44,455 --> 00:43:47,224
If I turn him loose, every
two-bit gunfighter I caught

842
00:43:47,358 --> 00:43:48,726
would try the same thing.

843
00:43:49,693 --> 00:43:50,813
You let them bluff you once,

844
00:43:50,894 --> 00:43:52,054
they'll keep right on trying.

845
00:43:54,665 --> 00:43:56,066
But if I was a private citizen,

846
00:43:57,134 --> 00:43:58,235
I might do something else.

847
00:43:58,936 --> 00:43:59,937
I see your point.

848
00:44:00,070 --> 00:44:01,839
But since I'm the marshal,

849
00:44:01,972 --> 00:44:05,009
well, I better see if I can
scout up some deputies.

850
00:44:06,310 --> 00:44:08,445
Marshal is right. The
law is the law, Calhoun.

851
00:44:08,579 --> 00:44:10,247
If the man breaks it,

852
00:44:10,381 --> 00:44:13,183
then he has to be judged
according to his crime

853
00:44:13,317 --> 00:44:15,452
and nothing outside
of that judgment

854
00:44:16,553 --> 00:44:17,673
can be allowed to interfere.

855
00:44:19,323 --> 00:44:21,425
Well, you may be
right on that, judge,

856
00:44:22,393 --> 00:44:23,594
and Billy may be guilty.

857
00:44:25,129 --> 00:44:28,432
The only thing I know for sure is that
he wasn't proven guilty in your court.

858
00:44:28,565 --> 00:44:30,834
We're doing what we
have to do, Calhoun.

859
00:44:30,968 --> 00:44:32,069
I understand.

860
00:44:33,504 --> 00:44:34,505
So am I.

861
00:44:35,272 --> 00:44:36,774
Now you go in
there and let him out.

862
00:44:40,577 --> 00:44:42,613
You picked the
wrong man, Calhoun.

863
00:44:43,647 --> 00:44:44,958
You heard what I
said to the marshal,

864
00:44:44,982 --> 00:44:46,083
the same goes for you.

865
00:44:46,216 --> 00:44:47,418
(Keys jingling)

866
00:44:47,551 --> 00:44:50,287
I'm gonna kill two birds
with one stone, judge.

867
00:44:50,421 --> 00:44:53,123
First I'm gonna get
barnabas out of there, safe.

868
00:44:53,257 --> 00:44:55,693
Then I'm gonna see to it that
Billy pardew gets a fair trial.

869
00:44:56,326 --> 00:44:58,529
Dave. Go get some horses.

870
00:44:58,662 --> 00:45:00,407
When al and Jess make
a run for it, you follow

871
00:45:00,431 --> 00:45:02,499
and bring Billy
pardew back here.

872
00:45:02,633 --> 00:45:04,713
They have three horses
waiting for me up at the depot.

873
00:45:04,835 --> 00:45:05,836
All right.

874
00:45:08,672 --> 00:45:10,941
You intend taking my
prisoner away from me?

875
00:45:11,075 --> 00:45:15,079
I intend taking your prisoner over to
Miller falls where he can get a fair trial.

876
00:45:15,212 --> 00:45:16,780
It's out of your jurisdiction.

877
00:45:16,914 --> 00:45:19,195
Now you get in here with me
where I can keep an eye on you.

878
00:45:32,029 --> 00:45:33,897
Billy: You sure fixed him.

879
00:45:34,031 --> 00:45:36,767
Your uncles are waiting
down in my private car.

880
00:45:36,900 --> 00:45:39,870
You get out on that street,
you run for all you're worth.

881
00:45:40,003 --> 00:45:41,981
And let me tell you now,
anything happens to barnabas,

882
00:45:42,005 --> 00:45:43,507
you're gonna wish
they had hung you.

883
00:45:44,508 --> 00:45:45,709
(Keys jingling)

884
00:45:57,654 --> 00:45:58,889
Hold your fire.

885
00:45:59,022 --> 00:46:01,925
Hey, they turned old
Billy loose. Here he comes.

886
00:46:14,404 --> 00:46:15,672
They shot him.

887
00:46:16,907 --> 00:46:19,510
They let him get close,
then they shot him!

888
00:46:42,933 --> 00:46:44,034
(Sobs)

889
00:46:46,904 --> 00:46:48,305
Little Billy is dead.

890
00:47:15,699 --> 00:47:17,201
I told you what
was gonna happen.

891
00:47:19,603 --> 00:47:21,872
Now it's gonna happen
right in front of you.

892
00:47:25,709 --> 00:47:27,244
Billy.

893
00:47:27,377 --> 00:47:29,279
You never had no luck at all.

894
00:47:30,914 --> 00:47:31,915
No, sir.

895
00:47:33,650 --> 00:47:35,285
No luck at all.

896
00:47:35,419 --> 00:47:38,755
You didn't know old
Andy'd still be there.

897
00:47:40,524 --> 00:47:42,059
You didn't figure that, Billy.

898
00:47:42,993 --> 00:47:44,194
What did you say?

899
00:47:46,063 --> 00:47:47,663
That Billy didn't know
Andy was in there?

900
00:47:47,731 --> 00:47:48,732
No, he didn't.

901
00:47:49,900 --> 00:47:51,134
Billy didn't do nothing.

902
00:47:52,970 --> 00:47:54,171
Nothing at all, al.

903
00:47:55,405 --> 00:47:56,540
Tell the truth, Jess.

904
00:47:59,443 --> 00:48:00,744
He won that money,

905
00:48:01,678 --> 00:48:04,348
in that poker game,
like I told you, al.

906
00:48:05,549 --> 00:48:07,017
Make him tell you the truth, al.

907
00:48:09,052 --> 00:48:10,053
Al...

908
00:48:11,622 --> 00:48:13,457
Billy said you'd be mad.

909
00:48:13,590 --> 00:48:15,459
Now you tell me what happened.

910
00:48:16,994 --> 00:48:17,995
Al...

911
00:48:19,162 --> 00:48:21,565
Billy was drunk.

912
00:48:22,833 --> 00:48:25,702
He was afraid you'd be mad
because he lost the money.

913
00:48:29,539 --> 00:48:31,842
But he didn't mean
to hurt nobody.

914
00:48:33,644 --> 00:48:35,279
Well, you got to
believe that, al.

915
00:48:38,682 --> 00:48:40,183
Maybe it's better this way.

916
00:48:41,718 --> 00:48:43,220
It's a whole lot
quicker than hanging.

917
00:48:45,522 --> 00:48:46,723
Al, you...

918
00:48:48,792 --> 00:48:50,294
You ain't sore at
me no more, huh?

919
00:48:51,528 --> 00:48:53,430
I mean, it's gonna be like...

920
00:48:55,933 --> 00:48:58,268
Like old times with
us again, ain't it?

921
00:48:58,402 --> 00:48:59,469
Yeah.

922
00:49:01,605 --> 00:49:02,940
Yeah, just like old times.

923
00:49:05,676 --> 00:49:07,356
I don't see any point
holding them, marshal.

924
00:49:08,111 --> 00:49:09,646
They didn't hurt anybody.

925
00:49:09,780 --> 00:49:12,149
Are you trying to tell me
how to run things too, tarrant?

926
00:49:16,153 --> 00:49:17,854
All right, Bury your boy

927
00:49:17,988 --> 00:49:20,266
and I don't want to see the two
of you around here ever again.

928
00:49:20,290 --> 00:49:21,792
You're gonna let us ride free?

929
00:49:22,492 --> 00:49:23,527
Yes.

930
00:49:26,663 --> 00:49:29,800
Hey, I'd be, uh, much
obliged if you got a proper

931
00:49:29,933 --> 00:49:31,101
stone for little Billy.

932
00:49:33,036 --> 00:49:34,204
We'll take care of it.

933
00:49:38,642 --> 00:49:39,810
Sorry, boy.

934
00:49:40,510 --> 00:49:41,611
Good luck to you.

935
00:50:07,804 --> 00:50:10,107
I want that man
arrested. I want him in jail.

936
00:50:12,609 --> 00:50:14,044
I said I want him arrested!

937
00:50:15,879 --> 00:50:17,280
Billy pardew's dead, judge.

938
00:50:17,914 --> 00:50:18,915
What more do you want?

939
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:45,842
