1
00:00:14,190 --> 00:00:16,773
(mellow music)

2
00:01:34,883 --> 00:01:37,150
- [Adult Jed] My name is Jedidiah Cooper,

3
00:01:37,150 --> 00:01:39,200
I was born a slave.

4
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,570
Don't know exactly when.

5
00:01:41,570 --> 00:01:43,770
But I was half way between a boy and a man

6
00:01:43,770 --> 00:01:46,880
when I first heard the
guns of Mr. Lincoln's war

7
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,760
in 1861.

8
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,972
For days we couldn't
see any union soldiers.

9
00:01:50,972 --> 00:01:53,270
But we slaves knew they had come

10
00:01:53,270 --> 00:01:54,240
to set us free.

11
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,120
My best friend was a dog named Jack.

12
00:02:00,350 --> 00:02:02,080
There used to be no coon or deer

13
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,330
could outrun Jack, until Master

14
00:02:04,330 --> 00:02:05,320
got some hounds.

15
00:02:06,250 --> 00:02:09,490
Old Jack was tied to that
fence winter and summer.

16
00:02:09,490 --> 00:02:11,180
Never to chase a rabbit again.

17
00:02:12,460 --> 00:02:15,127
(rooster crows)

18
00:02:19,630 --> 00:02:22,450
Master let me get five of
his eggs every morning.

19
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:25,640
Didn't let no other slave do that.

20
00:02:26,670 --> 00:02:27,870
But I didn't dare tell him that the eggs

21
00:02:27,870 --> 00:02:28,703
were for my Pa.

22
00:02:35,225 --> 00:02:36,058
- One of Master Lincoln's soldiers

23
00:02:36,058 --> 00:02:37,543
came by last night looking for some food.

24
00:02:37,543 --> 00:02:39,600
- Well he told me, meet him down by

25
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,445
the creek side, he supposed to

26
00:02:41,445 --> 00:02:42,394
let us join the army.

27
00:02:42,394 --> 00:02:43,864
- We gonna look after his horses.

28
00:02:43,864 --> 00:02:45,428
- Look, you wanna come, Jed?

29
00:02:45,428 --> 00:02:46,261
- Come on, Jed.

30
00:02:46,261 --> 00:02:47,270
- Got to take care of Pa.

31
00:02:48,278 --> 00:02:50,090
- Go on back to your pappy then.

32
00:02:50,090 --> 00:02:52,298
- [Adult Jed] Master Cooper said we'd

33
00:02:52,298 --> 00:02:53,330
be eating grass like mules if we went

34
00:02:53,330 --> 00:02:54,550
into the Yankee army.

35
00:02:54,550 --> 00:02:56,690
But I didn't believe that.

36
00:02:56,690 --> 00:02:58,360
We knew that any slave that attempted

37
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,160
to join the union army would pay with

38
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:02,950
their lives if they were caught.

39
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:09,800
- What's all the fuss about?

40
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:12,560
Have a piece of bread.

41
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,290
- Mommy, where's Pa?

42
00:03:24,070 --> 00:03:25,710
- [Adult Jed] Master often whipped my Pa

43
00:03:25,710 --> 00:03:27,280
for no reason I could see.

44
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,470
My Pa was gettin' so sick, he couldn't

45
00:03:30,470 --> 00:03:31,890
go out and work no more.

46
00:03:36,870 --> 00:03:39,850
- Pa, I want to take you with the Yankees

47
00:03:39,850 --> 00:03:41,450
so you'll never get whipped again.

48
00:03:41,450 --> 00:03:42,520
- No, son.

49
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:43,980
I's worn out.

50
00:03:43,980 --> 00:03:45,870
- I'll carry you if I have to.

51
00:03:45,870 --> 00:03:47,578
Mama, you and Shadow can come, too.

52
00:03:47,578 --> 00:03:51,246
- I can't be running off
with no Yankee's, child.

53
00:03:51,246 --> 00:03:53,860
I got Shadow to look after.

54
00:03:53,860 --> 00:03:56,400
And besides, Yankee's cut off little

55
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,249
colored boys ears.

56
00:03:58,249 --> 00:04:00,090
- [Kirk] Jed, get out here and fall in.

57
00:04:00,090 --> 00:04:01,780
- [Sarah] Better go see what he wants.

58
00:04:01,780 --> 00:04:03,350
- I already know what he wants.

59
00:04:05,661 --> 00:04:08,161
(Jack whines)

60
00:04:13,151 --> 00:04:15,733
- [Adult Jed] I belonged
to Master's son, Kirk.

61
00:04:15,733 --> 00:04:19,043
I did all Kirk's chores,
carried his books to school,

62
00:04:19,043 --> 00:04:21,980
fanned the flies when he ate, and drilled

63
00:04:21,980 --> 00:04:23,710
with him every morning.

64
00:04:23,710 --> 00:04:25,650
Kirk wanted to join the Southern army

65
00:04:25,650 --> 00:04:27,990
and prove himself to a father that didn't

66
00:04:27,990 --> 00:04:30,210
think very much of his own son.

67
00:04:30,210 --> 00:04:31,560
- You did better last week.

68
00:04:40,528 --> 00:04:42,340
- [Adult Jed] Being that he was a hero

69
00:04:42,340 --> 00:04:44,711
from the Mexican war, Master expected

70
00:04:44,711 --> 00:04:46,900
the General's commission any day

71
00:04:46,900 --> 00:04:48,290
from Robert E. Lee.

72
00:04:49,150 --> 00:04:51,308
I knew if Kirk joined the army,

73
00:04:51,308 --> 00:04:54,650
I would be right at his side.

74
00:04:54,650 --> 00:04:56,300
- Where are you going, Pa?

75
00:04:56,300 --> 00:04:58,380
- Willie here says that two of our slaves

76
00:04:58,380 --> 00:05:01,020
ran off to join the Yankees this morning.

77
00:05:01,020 --> 00:05:02,370
I'm going to go catch them.

78
00:05:04,674 --> 00:05:06,688
And you tell your father that he needs

79
00:05:06,688 --> 00:05:09,240
to work today, if he wants me to feed him.

80
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:10,620
- Yes, Sir.

81
00:05:10,620 --> 00:05:13,930
- I found him in the barn
just now, drying tobacco.

82
00:05:31,510 --> 00:05:32,810
- [Kirk] I'm going to make my daddy proud.

83
00:05:32,810 --> 00:05:34,633
Kill ourselves a Yankee.

84
00:05:34,633 --> 00:05:36,850
- [Adult Jed] Master Cooper warned his son

85
00:05:36,850 --> 00:05:39,180
to stay away from the
guns from the Mexican war

86
00:05:39,180 --> 00:05:40,850
he kept in his study.

87
00:05:40,850 --> 00:05:42,787
But Kirk was eager to
prove himself and got

88
00:05:42,787 --> 00:05:44,680
a gun for each of us.

89
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,230
To find a union soldier to kill.

90
00:05:48,830 --> 00:05:50,590
- Maybe we should bring Jack along.

91
00:05:51,670 --> 00:05:52,820
- He might protect us.

92
00:05:53,910 --> 00:05:55,780
Jack ain't a dog for war.

93
00:05:55,780 --> 00:05:57,288
- Please, Master Kirk.

94
00:05:57,288 --> 00:05:59,462
- My Pa wants to whip me for untying Jack,

95
00:05:59,462 --> 00:06:01,460
I'm going to say it was you.

96
00:06:09,036 --> 00:06:11,453
(Jack barks)

97
00:06:13,229 --> 00:06:15,812
(mellow music)

98
00:06:33,341 --> 00:06:35,616
(Jack barks)

99
00:06:35,616 --> 00:06:37,783
(gunfire)

100
00:06:41,710 --> 00:06:43,670
- Oh boy, look at them Yankees run.

101
00:06:44,942 --> 00:06:45,990
- Down boys, behind you.

102
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:54,513
- Six shooter.

103
00:06:56,273 --> 00:06:58,480
They don't give the
Southern army no pistols.

104
00:07:01,446 --> 00:07:03,830
- Kirk, it ain't right taking the hat

105
00:07:03,830 --> 00:07:04,820
off a dead man.

106
00:07:05,813 --> 00:07:07,550
- But I ain't got no
more Yanks to shoot at.

107
00:07:07,550 --> 00:07:10,951
So I'll pretend this here is a real Yank.

108
00:07:10,951 --> 00:07:11,784
Come on.

109
00:07:19,643 --> 00:07:21,400
Why are you so scared, huh?

110
00:07:24,286 --> 00:07:25,940
- The last time I went bear hunting,

111
00:07:25,940 --> 00:07:27,390
your daddy said next time he catch me with

112
00:07:27,390 --> 00:07:29,220
a gun again, he gonna use it on me.

113
00:07:29,220 --> 00:07:30,760
- He wouldn't hurt you, Jed.

114
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:31,593
You know that.

115
00:07:33,810 --> 00:07:35,060
Come on, show your stuff.

116
00:07:38,770 --> 00:07:40,750
Now say, did, Yankee, die.

117
00:07:45,782 --> 00:07:47,585
(gunfire)

118
00:07:47,585 --> 00:07:48,418
(Jack barks)

119
00:07:48,418 --> 00:07:50,302
- [Soldier] Water.
(coughing)

120
00:07:50,302 --> 00:07:51,135
Water.

121
00:07:52,201 --> 00:07:54,100
- I'm not giving him no water.

122
00:07:54,100 --> 00:07:54,933
- Water please.

123
00:07:58,890 --> 00:08:00,320
- What are you doing?

124
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:01,330
That's the enemy.

125
00:08:03,070 --> 00:08:05,530
- Come on, my pappy can doctor you.

126
00:08:05,530 --> 00:08:06,460
- Leave me here, son.

127
00:08:06,460 --> 00:08:09,350
- No, we can't do that, you's helping us.

128
00:08:09,350 --> 00:08:10,740
Come on, Kirk, he's dying.

129
00:08:24,340 --> 00:08:25,860
- [Adult Jed] My Pa had a reputation

130
00:08:25,860 --> 00:08:28,140
for doctoring us slaves.

131
00:08:28,140 --> 00:08:30,217
He was the only hope
for that wounded Yankee.

132
00:08:30,217 --> 00:08:32,960
But we knew the price my Pa would pay

133
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,290
if Master discovered a union soldier

134
00:08:36,290 --> 00:08:37,390
in his tobacco barn.

135
00:08:38,646 --> 00:08:40,563
- Lord have mercy, Jed.

136
00:08:49,150 --> 00:08:51,980
Get off now, this ain't
no place for you, Kirk.

137
00:08:58,933 --> 00:09:00,760
- You have a name, son?

138
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:01,980
- Name's Jed, Sir.

139
00:09:03,780 --> 00:09:05,340
- I never could snuggle
up next to my pappy

140
00:09:05,340 --> 00:09:06,173
like that.

141
00:09:09,087 --> 00:09:10,200
Today I set Jed free.

142
00:09:12,232 --> 00:09:13,132
I give him my gun.

143
00:09:14,686 --> 00:09:16,530
- He's my slave boy.

144
00:09:18,170 --> 00:09:19,540
- Go on, do what I say.

145
00:09:29,729 --> 00:09:31,800
- What's your name?

146
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:32,750
- Name's Nathaniel.

147
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,020
He's a good son, isn't he?

148
00:09:36,277 --> 00:09:38,853
- Your pappy say the same.

149
00:09:38,853 --> 00:09:40,410
- Not if you hear him talk.

150
00:09:40,410 --> 00:09:41,260
- Don't say that.

151
00:09:44,110 --> 00:09:46,160
- I have this letter that I wrote to him.

152
00:09:48,770 --> 00:09:50,020
But he never writes back.

153
00:09:53,566 --> 00:09:56,170
(tranquil piano music)

154
00:09:56,170 --> 00:09:58,390
- Reverend A.S. Stewart.

155
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:03,510
153 Pennsylvania Avenue,
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

156
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,970
- Can you get that letter to him?

157
00:10:06,970 --> 00:10:07,803
Promise me.

158
00:10:09,375 --> 00:10:10,292
- I'll try.

159
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:18,076
♪ Heaven, Heaven ♪

160
00:10:18,076 --> 00:10:22,123
♪ I'm goin' to shout
all over God's Heaven ♪

161
00:10:22,123 --> 00:10:26,391
♪ You got-a wings, I got-a wings ♪

162
00:10:26,391 --> 00:10:28,940
♪ All o' God's children got-a wings ♪

163
00:10:28,940 --> 00:10:31,025
- [Adult Jed] We slaves knew

164
00:10:31,025 --> 00:10:32,380
we weren't allowed to
be around no Yankees.

165
00:10:32,380 --> 00:10:34,040
Say nothing of a Yankee soldier.

166
00:10:34,900 --> 00:10:36,450
But nothing would've stopped us

167
00:10:37,354 --> 00:10:39,610
from praying and watching
over Nathaniel that night.

168
00:10:39,610 --> 00:10:41,460
The Lord knew best though.

169
00:10:41,460 --> 00:10:43,340
And took that soldier home with him

170
00:10:43,340 --> 00:10:45,053
the next morning.

171
00:10:45,053 --> 00:10:47,803
(horse whinnies)

172
00:10:50,635 --> 00:10:52,685
- [Eli] It was a happy day for the South.

173
00:10:56,016 --> 00:10:58,016
Happy day for the South.

174
00:11:02,805 --> 00:11:04,690
We did a hard days work.

175
00:11:04,690 --> 00:11:06,680
- [Adult Jed] Master
Cooper once told us slaves

176
00:11:06,680 --> 00:11:08,890
that none of us would ever see another day

177
00:11:08,890 --> 00:11:10,290
if we tried to run from him.

178
00:11:11,830 --> 00:11:14,730
When I saw Amos and
Tempe shot dead and slung

179
00:11:14,730 --> 00:11:17,850
over the back of a horse, I knew Master

180
00:11:17,850 --> 00:11:20,170
might do the same thing to my Pa.

181
00:11:20,170 --> 00:11:22,440
Kirk tried to lie an said we'd been down

182
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:23,940
by the swimming hole.

183
00:11:23,940 --> 00:11:26,520
But Master saw the blood on Kirk's shirt.

184
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:28,340
And made him tell how he got that blood

185
00:11:28,340 --> 00:11:29,880
from the Yankee soldier.

186
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:31,600
- What's that I see on your shirt, son?

187
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:32,840
Somebody get hurt?

188
00:11:34,273 --> 00:11:36,940
(intense music)

189
00:12:42,515 --> 00:12:45,100
- Eli, what are you going to do

190
00:12:45,100 --> 00:12:47,560
about those slaves harboring the enemy?

191
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,950
You got to do something or all the slaves

192
00:12:51,950 --> 00:12:54,049
will be running off like they did

193
00:12:54,049 --> 00:12:55,349
at the Johnson plantation.

194
00:13:01,030 --> 00:13:02,020
- Give me my whip.

195
00:13:05,300 --> 00:13:06,720
Get the others out of here.

196
00:13:11,950 --> 00:13:14,230
- Son, let daddy handle this.

197
00:13:14,230 --> 00:13:15,550
- No, Pa.

198
00:13:15,550 --> 00:13:16,770
- No, you won't.

199
00:13:16,770 --> 00:13:17,740
- I will.

200
00:13:18,583 --> 00:13:20,898
- Go where it says on
that soldier's letter.

201
00:13:20,898 --> 00:13:22,827
Moses will show you where the start.

202
00:13:22,827 --> 00:13:25,203
- I want to stay here with you, Pa.

203
00:13:25,203 --> 00:13:28,560
- Promise me you'll run away, you hear?

204
00:13:31,780 --> 00:13:32,613
- I promise.

205
00:13:34,300 --> 00:13:35,133
Come on, Jack.

206
00:13:41,693 --> 00:13:42,960
- [Kirk] You know it's not Will, father.

207
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:44,370
- [Eli] Don't tell me.

208
00:13:44,370 --> 00:13:46,320
Can't even do a half days work no more.

209
00:13:48,619 --> 00:13:51,202
(woeful music)

210
00:13:58,988 --> 00:14:01,240
Are you a soldier or a coward, boy?

211
00:14:09,373 --> 00:14:11,978
(Whip cracks)

212
00:14:11,978 --> 00:14:14,228
(coughing)

213
00:14:25,060 --> 00:14:26,470
Go take care of that dog.

214
00:14:30,180 --> 00:14:33,707
- I'm sorry, Noah, but
I'd put a white man down

215
00:14:33,707 --> 00:14:35,624
for what you did today.

216
00:14:36,657 --> 00:14:38,740
(crying)

217
00:15:12,050 --> 00:15:13,450
- Don't leave him like that.

218
00:15:19,586 --> 00:15:23,388
- Kid, you gotta get out of here now.

219
00:15:23,388 --> 00:15:27,340
- [Eli] Jed, I'm not going
to lay a hand on you.

220
00:15:27,340 --> 00:15:30,760
- There's a creek that runs
alongside Cooper woods.

221
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,440
You follow that until
it runs into the river.

222
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,540
You go all the way to
the end until you see

223
00:15:35,540 --> 00:15:36,490
a white house.

224
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,640
Follow the sun, there's
going to be a statue.

225
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,920
When you get to it,
you go up and you knock

226
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,527
on that door three times
and then two times more.

227
00:15:45,527 --> 00:15:48,810
There's a lady there
and she's a nice lady.

228
00:15:48,810 --> 00:15:50,745
And she's going to help you catch a train

229
00:15:50,745 --> 00:15:52,440
and she's going to take you to the north.

230
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,124
- No, don't let my baby go, no.

231
00:15:55,124 --> 00:15:56,320
(crying)

232
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:57,860
- What should I do, mama?

233
00:15:57,860 --> 00:16:00,350
- You got no place to go, Jed.

234
00:16:00,350 --> 00:16:02,595
- I still got the letter
from the soldier, mama.

235
00:16:02,595 --> 00:16:04,400
- I'm so sorry, Jed.

236
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,446
- [Eli] Jed, I want to talk with you.

237
00:16:07,446 --> 00:16:12,446
- Now you take this and
here's some food for you.

238
00:16:12,690 --> 00:16:14,460
I took it off of that dead soldier.

239
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,220
- Moses, bury my Pa and the soldier like

240
00:16:19,220 --> 00:16:20,130
you did old Joe.

241
00:16:21,662 --> 00:16:23,150
I love you so much, mama.

242
00:16:23,150 --> 00:16:25,310
- I loves you too, son.

243
00:16:26,159 --> 00:16:28,242
(crying)

244
00:16:37,010 --> 00:16:38,360
Don't forget the Lord, son.

245
00:16:54,430 --> 00:16:55,850
- I won't hurt you, Jed.

246
00:16:57,340 --> 00:17:00,840
You're afraid but have I ever whipped you?

247
00:17:03,270 --> 00:17:05,250
I've always taken up for you, Jed.

248
00:17:06,190 --> 00:17:08,650
When I let you learn how to read now,

249
00:17:08,650 --> 00:17:10,050
my neighbors threatened me.

250
00:17:11,164 --> 00:17:12,564
But it didn't phase me none.

251
00:17:21,369 --> 00:17:24,036
(intense music)

252
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:38,870
Go by the fence in case Jed comes

253
00:17:38,870 --> 00:17:40,050
back for that dog.

254
00:17:41,287 --> 00:17:43,954
(intense music)

255
00:17:56,695 --> 00:17:59,195
(dog barking)

256
00:18:13,447 --> 00:18:14,300
- [Adult Jed] I put my life on the line

257
00:18:14,300 --> 00:18:16,170
that day for Dog Jack.

258
00:18:16,170 --> 00:18:18,415
I pitied Jack, seeing him tied up to

259
00:18:18,415 --> 00:18:22,060
that fence, his life no
better than us slaves.

260
00:18:22,910 --> 00:18:24,790
I wasn't about to go north without taking

261
00:18:24,790 --> 00:18:26,010
Dog Jack with me.

262
00:18:29,011 --> 00:18:30,000
- Master Kirk.

263
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:30,950
- Get back to work.

264
00:18:35,850 --> 00:18:37,000
- Don't try to stop me.

265
00:18:38,150 --> 00:18:39,840
You don't have a gun.

266
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:41,450
I can beat you if we fight.

267
00:18:44,485 --> 00:18:47,902
(melancholy piano music)

268
00:19:10,877 --> 00:19:14,127
(hunting dogs barking)

269
00:19:52,699 --> 00:19:55,199
- [Eli] All right, spread out.

270
00:20:22,939 --> 00:20:25,439
You won't be punished if
you come right back, Jed.

271
00:20:26,300 --> 00:20:28,310
I won't touch a hair on your head, son.

272
00:20:44,446 --> 00:20:46,840
(horse whinnies)

273
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:48,090
I'm going in there alone.

274
00:21:06,771 --> 00:21:09,438
(Jack whimpers)

275
00:21:43,113 --> 00:21:43,946
Call it, boys.

276
00:21:51,710 --> 00:21:55,543
(spiritual harmonizing music)

277
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,070
- [Adult Jed] The food Moses gave us

278
00:22:27,070 --> 00:22:27,990
disappeared fast.

279
00:22:29,170 --> 00:22:31,459
Jack found us some eggs and we ate berries

280
00:22:31,459 --> 00:22:33,190
and raw corn along the way.

281
00:22:34,300 --> 00:22:36,040
Sometimes we'd travel at night

282
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,310
if we heard there were
slave catchers nearby.

283
00:22:39,530 --> 00:22:41,020
I began to wonder if I was doing

284
00:22:41,020 --> 00:22:44,260
the right thing by leaving
my Ma and sister behind.

285
00:22:46,092 --> 00:22:48,105
(Jack barks)

286
00:22:48,105 --> 00:22:50,355
(knocking)

287
00:22:53,711 --> 00:22:54,878
- Oh, my word.

288
00:22:55,745 --> 00:22:56,995
You poor child.

289
00:22:59,522 --> 00:23:00,990
(Jack whines)

290
00:23:00,990 --> 00:23:02,400
Where you two headed?

291
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:03,570
Come on, don't be shy.

292
00:23:03,570 --> 00:23:04,403
I know I'm a big lady

293
00:23:04,403 --> 00:23:05,870
but I'm not going to bite you.

294
00:23:08,934 --> 00:23:11,660
They got a train heading up to Pittsburgh

295
00:23:11,660 --> 00:23:13,550
everyday at noon, but they'll never

296
00:23:13,550 --> 00:23:15,240
let a black child get on it.

297
00:23:29,340 --> 00:23:30,390
- Your ticket please.

298
00:23:35,870 --> 00:23:38,810
Dogs are supposed to
ride in the baggage car.

299
00:23:38,810 --> 00:23:41,060
- Please sir, he won't make no trouble.

300
00:23:52,461 --> 00:23:54,770
- Well, I just hope those bounty hunters

301
00:23:54,770 --> 00:23:57,270
don't ask any questions
when we get to Pittsburgh.

302
00:24:05,860 --> 00:24:07,420
- [Adult Jed] I wish I could
say our troubles were over

303
00:24:07,420 --> 00:24:09,690
when Jack and I reached Pittsburgh.

304
00:24:09,690 --> 00:24:11,680
But the fugitive slave law required

305
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,120
northern states to return runaway slaves

306
00:24:14,120 --> 00:24:15,800
back to their masters.

307
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,100
Slave catchers were hated
by the local people.

308
00:24:19,790 --> 00:24:21,560
- That don't look too good, Jack.

309
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,920
- [Adult Jed] Those men
hung around the trains

310
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,716
looking to get a fat reward for turning in

311
00:24:26,716 --> 00:24:27,549
a runaway.

312
00:24:28,944 --> 00:24:31,611
(intense music)

313
00:24:46,013 --> 00:24:48,513
(Jack whines)

314
00:24:55,380 --> 00:24:57,152
- Come on, boy.

315
00:24:57,152 --> 00:24:59,866
Get you cleaned up here, boy.

316
00:24:59,866 --> 00:25:02,279
Come on, boy.

317
00:25:02,279 --> 00:25:05,450
(crowd chatter)

318
00:25:05,450 --> 00:25:06,810
- [Adult Jed] Even
though the bounty hunters

319
00:25:06,810 --> 00:25:09,380
could lawfully return me to Master Cooper,

320
00:25:09,380 --> 00:25:11,527
the people of Pittsburgh felt sorry for me

321
00:25:11,527 --> 00:25:14,055
and made a way for me to cut loose.

322
00:25:14,055 --> 00:25:15,420
(jack barks)

323
00:25:15,420 --> 00:25:17,260
But as Jack and I were
worth several hundred

324
00:25:17,260 --> 00:25:19,410
dollars to those slave catchers, I knew

325
00:25:19,410 --> 00:25:20,910
they wouldn't give up so soon.

326
00:25:28,373 --> 00:25:30,700
- Father stop, he's trying
to ask us something.

327
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,310
- Please, I'm looking
for Reverend Stewart.

328
00:25:35,310 --> 00:25:37,335
- He's in church now, next block, right up

329
00:25:37,335 --> 00:25:40,020
Pennsylvania Avenue.

330
00:25:40,020 --> 00:25:41,160
- Thank you.

331
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,440
- We're going in that direction if you'd--

332
00:25:45,210 --> 00:25:47,110
I wouldn't go there if I was you.

333
00:25:47,110 --> 00:25:49,240
He's different since his wife died.

334
00:26:05,075 --> 00:26:06,450
- I have nothing against the colored race.

335
00:26:06,450 --> 00:26:08,130
Many have gotten respectable jobs

336
00:26:08,130 --> 00:26:10,017
here in Pittsburgh.

337
00:26:10,017 --> 00:26:11,190
Is it worth shedding our blood

338
00:26:11,190 --> 00:26:12,510
to set them free?

339
00:26:13,370 --> 00:26:15,330
Mrs. Gardner, I ask
you, if Christ were here

340
00:26:15,330 --> 00:26:17,710
today, would he wage
war to free the slaves?

341
00:26:17,710 --> 00:26:18,543
- No.

342
00:26:21,159 --> 00:26:23,980
- Excuse me, what can I do for you men?

343
00:26:23,980 --> 00:26:26,238
- We have it here on good authority

344
00:26:26,238 --> 00:26:27,440
that this here boy is a runaway.

345
00:26:28,340 --> 00:26:29,870
- So, if he's a slave, federal law

346
00:26:29,870 --> 00:26:31,970
says we take him in.

347
00:26:31,970 --> 00:26:34,980
- I'm sorry, but Adam here is my altar boy

348
00:26:34,980 --> 00:26:37,410
and his dog guards the church at night.

349
00:26:37,410 --> 00:26:39,860
Adam, spot, take the collection plates

350
00:26:39,860 --> 00:26:41,240
back to the narthex.

351
00:26:52,260 --> 00:26:54,400
- I never heard of altar
boys in a Presbyterian

352
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:55,917
Church, Pastor.

353
00:26:55,917 --> 00:26:58,734
- Or a dog that serves communion.

354
00:26:58,734 --> 00:27:01,260
- Gentleman, you may have picked

355
00:27:01,260 --> 00:27:03,950
the lowest form of work
next to prostitution,

356
00:27:03,950 --> 00:27:05,800
but do it elsewhere would you?

357
00:27:08,103 --> 00:27:11,186
(mellow piano music)

358
00:27:22,370 --> 00:27:24,300
- You may hear from these men again.

359
00:27:24,300 --> 00:27:25,900
They'll kill if they need to.

360
00:27:25,900 --> 00:27:27,510
Best get out of town for awhile.

361
00:27:27,510 --> 00:27:29,470
- What am I supposed to do with the boy?

362
00:27:29,470 --> 00:27:30,500
- He'll come with us.

363
00:27:30,500 --> 00:27:32,276
We're signed on with the Pittsburgh 102nd.

364
00:27:32,276 --> 00:27:34,960
We're leaving for Washington tomorrow.

365
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,060
It might be the safest
place for both of you.

366
00:27:37,060 --> 00:27:38,920
- I don't believe in the war, Matt.

367
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:40,930
- I don't think you have
a lot of choice, Reverend.

368
00:27:53,220 --> 00:27:54,720
- Thank you, Reverend Stewart.

369
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:57,580
Maybe you saved my life.

370
00:27:57,580 --> 00:27:58,850
- I just won't tolerate anyone

371
00:27:58,850 --> 00:28:01,880
coming in my church and
telling me what to do.

372
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:03,380
- I'm tired.

373
00:28:03,380 --> 00:28:05,810
- Maybe they can spend the night here.

374
00:28:05,810 --> 00:28:07,490
- - The Protestant Orphanage is an asylum.

375
00:28:07,490 --> 00:28:08,860
They'll take him in for the night.

376
00:28:08,860 --> 00:28:10,210
It's right down the street.

377
00:28:22,251 --> 00:28:25,168
(children chatter)

378
00:28:28,550 --> 00:28:29,620
- Quiet.

379
00:28:29,620 --> 00:28:32,930
Quiet or I'll give you a
taste of my hickory stick.

380
00:28:32,930 --> 00:28:33,763
- Excuse me.

381
00:28:34,740 --> 00:28:36,510
I need a place to stay for the night.

382
00:28:36,510 --> 00:28:38,010
I'm joining the army tomorrow.

383
00:28:39,130 --> 00:28:41,640
- Boy, my orphanage ain't no stop

384
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,720
on any underground railroad.

385
00:29:08,530 --> 00:29:09,590
- Get in here.

386
00:29:09,590 --> 00:29:10,830
The dog stays outside.

387
00:29:25,340 --> 00:29:26,860
What's your name?

388
00:29:26,860 --> 00:29:27,693
- Jed, Sir.

389
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,570
- You and Jack want to join the army?

390
00:29:38,570 --> 00:29:41,430
- Yes, sir, I want to go back to Virginia

391
00:29:41,430 --> 00:29:43,130
and set my mom and my sister free.

392
00:29:51,220 --> 00:29:52,750
- He was a fine Christian boy until he

393
00:29:52,750 --> 00:29:54,200
fell in with the wrong crowd.

394
00:29:59,300 --> 00:30:03,990
- Reverend Stewart, I met
your son a few days ago.

395
00:30:06,870 --> 00:30:08,610
And I've got something to give you.

396
00:30:09,913 --> 00:30:11,390
(sighs)

397
00:30:11,390 --> 00:30:13,530
- Listen, I had to say what I did

398
00:30:13,530 --> 00:30:15,380
to those two bounty hunters.

399
00:30:15,380 --> 00:30:17,450
But there'll be no more
lying in this house

400
00:30:17,450 --> 00:30:20,050
or talking about my son, do you hear?

401
00:30:20,050 --> 00:30:21,570
Whatever happened to my boy, I'll wait

402
00:30:21,570 --> 00:30:23,820
to hear about it from
the United States army.

403
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:26,233
- Yes, Sir.

404
00:30:31,770 --> 00:30:34,420
- My wife used to take such
good care of that garden.

405
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:36,920
- Where's your wife?

406
00:30:38,210 --> 00:30:41,010
- Dead, caught the fever
from one of the runaways

407
00:30:41,010 --> 00:30:41,843
she helped.

408
00:30:44,780 --> 00:30:45,680
- Sorry, Sir.

409
00:30:53,300 --> 00:30:54,970
- There's an extra blanket on the bed.

410
00:30:54,970 --> 00:30:55,810
Be careful in here.

411
00:30:55,810 --> 00:30:56,990
It's my son's room.

412
00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,180
- Thank you, Sir.

413
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,717
(melancholy music)

414
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,657
(clattering)

415
00:31:58,650 --> 00:32:00,330
- Have you seen a colored boy?

416
00:32:00,330 --> 00:32:02,060
- I haven't seen him anywhere.

417
00:32:02,060 --> 00:32:03,710
I bet that dog knows where he is.

418
00:32:12,653 --> 00:32:14,240
- Now the Governor's asked Pennsylvanian's

419
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:16,180
to do more than its share.

420
00:32:16,180 --> 00:32:17,705
As we did in April.

421
00:32:17,705 --> 00:32:19,920
- Get your women's ticket, $2.00.

422
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,266
Leave me your address and make sure

423
00:32:22,266 --> 00:32:26,060
you pay me (mumbles).

424
00:32:26,060 --> 00:32:27,530
- Have you seen a colored boy?

425
00:32:27,530 --> 00:32:28,980
- Maybe he went inside to sign up

426
00:32:28,980 --> 00:32:29,813
for the war.

427
00:32:30,811 --> 00:32:33,394
(mellow music)

428
00:32:38,660 --> 00:32:41,610
- 2000 of our men just
started in Manassas.

429
00:32:41,610 --> 00:32:43,500
And you're worried about my leg.

430
00:32:43,500 --> 00:32:44,750
- We disqualified you because

431
00:32:44,750 --> 00:32:46,907
of that leg in April, Casey.

432
00:32:46,907 --> 00:32:48,020
- Hey Reverend.

433
00:32:49,295 --> 00:32:50,250
Me and the boys are signing up.

434
00:32:50,250 --> 00:32:51,190
Want to join us?

435
00:32:51,190 --> 00:32:52,310
- No.

436
00:32:52,310 --> 00:32:54,190
Excuse me, you haven't seen
a colored boy have you?

437
00:32:54,190 --> 00:32:55,370
- Hold your horses, Reverend.

438
00:32:55,370 --> 00:32:58,930
- He tore up my sons room and ran off.

439
00:32:58,930 --> 00:33:01,190
- Will he be able to receive my letters

440
00:33:01,190 --> 00:33:02,770
on the battlefield?

441
00:33:02,770 --> 00:33:04,730
- [Officer] No guarantees, ma'am.

442
00:33:04,730 --> 00:33:07,040
- Justin, you've gotta stay.

443
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:08,860
Don't go, I need you.

444
00:33:08,860 --> 00:33:12,120
- [Justin] I want to help
free the slaves, Mama.

445
00:33:13,365 --> 00:33:15,865
(Jack whines)

446
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,187
(crowd chatter)

447
00:33:24,409 --> 00:33:27,044
(Jack barking)

448
00:33:27,044 --> 00:33:28,480
- [Jed] Reverend Stewart.

449
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,694
- Jed, is that you?

450
00:33:30,694 --> 00:33:31,611
- Yes, Sir.

451
00:33:34,602 --> 00:33:35,700
Thanks for helping me.

452
00:33:35,700 --> 00:33:37,960
- I came to arrest you
for trashing my sons room.

453
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:39,410
Is that how you pay me back?

454
00:33:39,410 --> 00:33:41,150
- Those slave catchers did it.

455
00:33:41,150 --> 00:33:42,670
Said they gonna kill you for getting

456
00:33:42,670 --> 00:33:43,503
in their way.

457
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:47,410
- What's going on here?

458
00:33:47,410 --> 00:33:50,070
- We have a rightful claim to the boy.

459
00:33:50,070 --> 00:33:52,020
- Right now I have here
with me a highly decorated

460
00:33:52,020 --> 00:33:54,141
veteran of the Mexican war.

461
00:33:54,141 --> 00:33:56,415
- He distinguished himself by slaying

462
00:33:56,415 --> 00:34:00,370
13 Mexican soldiers with
this here fish knife.

463
00:34:01,380 --> 00:34:03,060
- And this dog here
enjoys eating up anything

464
00:34:03,060 --> 00:34:04,070
that's left over.

465
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,300
- We'll see you in church, Pastor.

466
00:34:09,300 --> 00:34:11,322
- [Recruit] Yeah, we'll
see if you make it there.

467
00:34:11,322 --> 00:34:12,655
- Run along now.

468
00:34:15,030 --> 00:34:16,809
- Listen, I need to get on that train.

469
00:34:16,809 --> 00:34:19,200
I don't expect to be returning.

470
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,820
So I'm leaving you in
possession of everything I own.

471
00:34:24,240 --> 00:34:25,510
- [Recruiter] I, Jimmy Malloy.

472
00:34:25,510 --> 00:34:26,840
- I, Jimmy Malloy.

473
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:28,470
- Age 14 years.

474
00:34:28,470 --> 00:34:29,640
- Age 14 years.

475
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:31,350
- [Recruiter] And by occupation, a student

476
00:34:31,350 --> 00:34:32,700
at Callie School

477
00:34:32,700 --> 00:34:35,360
- And by occupation, a
student at Callie School.

478
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,600
- Do hereby voluntarily enlist.

479
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:39,680
- [Jimmy] Do hereby voluntarily enlist.

480
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:40,820
- [Recruiter] In the United States army.

481
00:34:40,820 --> 00:34:42,410
- In the United States army.

482
00:34:42,410 --> 00:34:44,000
- [Recruiter] For a period of three years.

483
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:45,500
- For a period of three years.

484
00:34:45,500 --> 00:34:47,510
- [Recruiter] Unless I
should die before then.

485
00:34:47,510 --> 00:34:49,700
- [Jimmy] Unless I should die before then.

486
00:34:49,700 --> 00:34:52,207
- In three years you'll be
big enough to fight, Jimmy.

487
00:34:52,207 --> 00:34:53,280
(laughing)

488
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:55,410
- My father says I can fight when I'm 14.

489
00:34:55,410 --> 00:34:58,200
- A change of heart
about the war, Reverend?

490
00:35:00,170 --> 00:35:02,750
We can't pay you unless you carry a gun.

491
00:35:02,750 --> 00:35:04,020
- I don't want your money.

492
00:35:04,020 --> 00:35:06,000
I'll be assisting Sergeant Sawyer.

493
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,060
- War ain't no place for chickens,

494
00:35:08,060 --> 00:35:09,810
that ain't got their pin feathers.

495
00:35:09,810 --> 00:35:11,370
- I suppose I could ask you why

496
00:35:11,370 --> 00:35:13,040
you're not fighting in a war.

497
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:14,828
But I won't bother.

498
00:35:14,828 --> 00:35:16,937
(train horn blows)

499
00:35:16,937 --> 00:35:18,586
- [Conductor] All aboard!

501
00:35:21,433 --> 00:35:22,952

- So anyways, this band of Mexicans

523
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:36,740
all appears at once and rushes at me.

524
00:36:36,740 --> 00:36:38,210
Now I don't have time to load and shoot

525
00:36:38,210 --> 00:36:40,190
so I take my bayonet and
I just start stabbing,

526
00:36:40,190 --> 00:36:42,330
stabbing, anything that comes at me.

527
00:36:42,330 --> 00:36:43,280
And I got them all.

528
00:36:46,383 --> 00:36:49,100
(laughing)

529
00:36:49,100 --> 00:36:50,870
You're looking at me funny now,

530
00:36:50,870 --> 00:36:52,480
half you boys are going
to run like sissy's

531
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:54,230
the first time you see a rebel gun.

532
00:36:56,110 --> 00:36:57,480
- I ain't gonna run, Casey.

533
00:36:59,330 --> 00:37:01,030
- We'll see about that, young boy.

534
00:37:04,250 --> 00:37:05,800
You like my stories, young man?

535
00:37:08,420 --> 00:37:10,260
I bet you can hardly
wait to settle the score

536
00:37:10,260 --> 00:37:11,420
with your old master.

537
00:37:15,686 --> 00:37:16,760
- I don't know about
someone covering my back

538
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:19,185
who's been taking orders
from Rebs all his life.

539
00:37:19,185 --> 00:37:21,150
- It sounds like your
life story, Tennessee.

540
00:37:24,338 --> 00:37:27,755
(melancholy piano music)

541
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,050
- [Adult Jed] Some of the boys signed on

542
00:37:45,050 --> 00:37:46,920
to get the enlistment bonus.

543
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:50,060
Some wanted to quit
school and carry a gun.

544
00:37:50,060 --> 00:37:52,040
Casey just wanted to kill rebels.

545
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,020
And the Rev, I couldn't figure out why

546
00:37:54,020 --> 00:37:55,870
he came at all.

547
00:37:55,870 --> 00:38:00,330
Me, I wanted to set my Ma and sister free.

548
00:38:00,330 --> 00:38:01,760
But there would come a time when you

549
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,330
find out war is mainly about one thing,

550
00:38:05,470 --> 00:38:06,520
and that's dying.

551
00:38:08,862 --> 00:38:12,279
(melancholy piano music)

552
00:38:20,010 --> 00:38:22,150
That fall we were sent to Tennallytown

553
00:38:22,150 --> 00:38:25,090
just outside Washington,
to learn how to fight.

554
00:38:25,090 --> 00:38:27,880
General Mcclellan was sure
if we stayed out the winter,

555
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:29,440
the Rebs would get tired of waiting.

556
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,330
They'd give up the rebellion.

557
00:38:31,330 --> 00:38:34,072
- Here's your rifle,
here's your half dog tent.

558
00:38:34,072 --> 00:38:36,570
- One canteen, one gun blanket.

559
00:38:41,170 --> 00:38:43,110
- I hear Reverend Stewart
has 300 greenbacks

560
00:38:43,110 --> 00:38:44,330
in his tent.

561
00:38:44,330 --> 00:38:46,380
If you took 100 I bet he wouldn't notice.

562
00:38:48,130 --> 00:38:49,810
- I'm Captain Malloy.

563
00:38:49,810 --> 00:38:51,648
No crucible ever tested metal as this war

564
00:38:51,648 --> 00:38:53,810
will test your character.

565
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:56,780
- When do we see fighting, sir?

566
00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,290
- When General Mcclellan
determines that we're ready.

567
00:39:02,850 --> 00:39:07,850
- Jesse, didn't they
issue you an umbrella?

568
00:39:08,366 --> 00:39:09,568
- An umbrella?

569
00:39:09,568 --> 00:39:10,401
No.

570
00:39:10,401 --> 00:39:11,234
- It's fraud.

571
00:39:12,300 --> 00:39:13,520
Go demand your umbrella.

572
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:15,633
Go on.

573
00:39:17,730 --> 00:39:19,820
- Where's your weapons store?

574
00:39:19,820 --> 00:39:21,690
- I'll be working with
the medical core, Sir.

575
00:39:21,690 --> 00:39:23,465
I purchase food for myself and the boy.

576
00:39:23,465 --> 00:39:27,600
- Um, Sir, excuse me, Sir.

577
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:31,373
Did you forget to issue
me an umbrella, Sir?

578
00:39:31,373 --> 00:39:33,956
(men laughing)

579
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,680
- Quartermaster.
- Sir.

580
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,263
- Hod did this boy get issued a rifle?

581
00:39:44,263 --> 00:39:45,930
- I thought everybody's
supposed to fight, Sir.

582
00:39:45,930 --> 00:39:47,520
- Have you read this?

583
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:48,353
- No, Sir.

584
00:39:50,050 --> 00:39:52,560
No negro should carry any kind of weapon,

585
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:54,460
offensive or defensive.

586
00:39:54,460 --> 00:39:56,330
- Turn in his gear.

587
00:39:56,330 --> 00:39:57,660
- I'll take this.

588
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:01,410
Excuse me, Reverend Stewart.

589
00:40:02,300 --> 00:40:04,000
Could you tell me what time it is?

590
00:40:05,644 --> 00:40:06,494
- I just had it--

591
00:40:11,070 --> 00:40:12,720
- I hear ticking in here, father.

592
00:40:14,784 --> 00:40:17,284
(Jack whines)

593
00:40:23,511 --> 00:40:24,811
- I didn't take the watch.

594
00:40:26,246 --> 00:40:27,770
- Come with me, boy.

595
00:40:27,770 --> 00:40:28,603
- What are you going to do?

596
00:40:28,603 --> 00:40:30,252
- Putting him on the next train back

597
00:40:30,252 --> 00:40:31,085
to Pittsburgh.

598
00:40:31,085 --> 00:40:31,918
- The bounty hunters will get him.

599
00:40:31,918 --> 00:40:32,780
It's my watch.

600
00:40:32,780 --> 00:40:34,586
I'll take care of it.

601
00:40:34,586 --> 00:40:35,520
- Well I'm glad to hear that.

602
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,240
You can be responsible for him.

603
00:40:38,720 --> 00:40:42,430
- Men, better watch our gear from now on.

604
00:40:50,144 --> 00:40:53,394
(men groaning in pain)

605
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:02,670
- Water, please.

606
00:41:11,490 --> 00:41:12,930
Water, please.

607
00:41:12,930 --> 00:41:13,780
- [Reverend] Jed.

608
00:41:25,464 --> 00:41:26,530
In here it doesn't matter what color

609
00:41:26,530 --> 00:41:27,540
a man's uniform is.

610
00:41:27,540 --> 00:41:28,440
Do you understand?

611
00:41:29,646 --> 00:41:32,935
- [Drill Sergeant] Shoulder-arms!

612
00:41:32,935 --> 00:41:35,852
Shoulder-arms!

613
00:41:36,763 --> 00:41:40,846
Right shoulder=shift-arms.

614
00:41:42,308 --> 00:41:43,990
Bring that rifle around, soldier.

615
00:41:46,548 --> 00:41:48,260
Support-arms!

616
00:41:48,260 --> 00:41:52,820
- Even my dog gets to be
a soldier before I do.

617
00:42:06,980 --> 00:42:07,880
- I couldn't do what you're doing

618
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:09,680
right now if my life depended on it.

619
00:42:11,370 --> 00:42:13,630
Think you could be a soldier?

620
00:42:13,630 --> 00:42:14,930
- Maybe I get used to it.

621
00:42:16,900 --> 00:42:18,250
- When I was 14 and living in Laredo,

622
00:42:18,250 --> 00:42:19,460
they told me I was too young to fight

623
00:42:19,460 --> 00:42:20,640
in the Mexican war.

624
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:21,880
They had me cleaning latrines

625
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:23,070
and burying the dead horses.

626
00:42:23,070 --> 00:42:24,400
You know what I did?

627
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:25,830
Grabbed a gun off a dead Mexican,

628
00:42:25,830 --> 00:42:27,820
joined the Texas volunteers, got loaded

629
00:42:27,820 --> 00:42:29,530
to the gills with knives and pistols

630
00:42:29,530 --> 00:42:31,118
and I showed them.

631
00:42:31,118 --> 00:42:34,226
I showed them how wrong they were.

632
00:42:34,226 --> 00:42:36,850
- You got a six shooter?

633
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:42,910
- [Casey] You wanna try it?

634
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:04,470
See if you can hit one of these.

635
00:43:17,666 --> 00:43:18,972
(gunfire)

636
00:43:18,972 --> 00:43:21,389
(snickering)

637
00:43:25,180 --> 00:43:26,013
You try.

638
00:43:28,580 --> 00:43:30,470
What's the name of your master?

639
00:43:30,470 --> 00:43:31,670
- Master Cooper.

640
00:43:31,670 --> 00:43:34,290
Actually, General Cooper.

641
00:43:34,290 --> 00:43:35,360
- General Cooper?

642
00:43:36,408 --> 00:43:37,241
(scoffs)

643
00:43:37,241 --> 00:43:38,680
Well, you just pretend

644
00:43:39,570 --> 00:43:41,220
that's General Cooper over there.

645
00:43:43,122 --> 00:43:44,661
Just line up that little piece

646
00:43:44,661 --> 00:43:46,640
of metal there, with the target.

647
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:48,049
- I know.

648
00:43:48,049 --> 00:43:49,258
- You know, huh?

649
00:43:49,258 --> 00:43:50,091
- Uh huh.

650
00:43:55,542 --> 00:43:58,520
(gunfire)

651
00:43:58,520 --> 00:43:59,670
- The army's cutting off their nose

652
00:43:59,670 --> 00:44:00,940
to spite their face by keeping you

653
00:44:00,940 --> 00:44:01,990
from being a soldier, Jed.

654
00:44:01,990 --> 00:44:02,823
- Casey!

655
00:44:03,900 --> 00:44:04,930
Get your men back to work

656
00:44:04,930 --> 00:44:06,570
or I'll put you up on charges.

657
00:44:07,690 --> 00:44:09,310
- Yes, sir, come on, boys.

658
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:12,020
I gotta special job for you.

659
00:44:22,210 --> 00:44:23,800
- I hope you like cleaning latrines

660
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:26,440
because that's going to
be your job for the war.

661
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:28,551
- Not when I get to be a soldier.

662
00:44:28,551 --> 00:44:29,929
(scoffs)

663
00:44:29,929 --> 00:44:30,762
- They're never going to trust colored boy

664
00:44:30,762 --> 00:44:32,000
with ah gun.

665
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:33,480
They'll let your dog march in the summer

666
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,355
before a colored man.

667
00:44:35,355 --> 00:44:38,389
- I don't see you carrying a gun.

668
00:44:38,389 --> 00:44:40,800
- My father says I can carry a gun

669
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:42,010
as soon as I turn 15.

670
00:44:47,495 --> 00:44:50,328
(harmonica music)

671
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:55,590
I'm a pretty good pickpocket, aren't I?

672
00:44:56,490 --> 00:44:58,060
- You took his watch, didn't you?

673
00:44:58,060 --> 00:44:59,710
- Jimmy, I wouldn't bother with that boy

674
00:44:59,710 --> 00:45:00,950
if I were you.

675
00:45:00,950 --> 00:45:02,700
- Ah, Reverend, he's use to it.

676
00:45:02,700 --> 00:45:03,600
Where did you pick up this sorry

677
00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:05,090
looking mutt?

678
00:45:05,090 --> 00:45:06,942
- His name is Jack.

679
00:45:06,942 --> 00:45:09,245
And he'll sic you if you're bothering me.

680
00:45:09,245 --> 00:45:10,550
Get him, Jack.

681
00:45:12,472 --> 00:45:15,350
- Colored Jed, your dog's just like you.

682
00:45:15,350 --> 00:45:17,110
Cowering to white people so long,

683
00:45:17,110 --> 00:45:18,510
he can't stand up to no one.

684
00:45:20,502 --> 00:45:21,567
(Jack yelps)

685
00:45:21,567 --> 00:45:22,400
You're both gonna be running as soon

686
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:24,030
as you see a gray uniform.

687
00:45:24,030 --> 00:45:25,230
- I just say the word, he go

688
00:45:25,230 --> 00:45:26,300
straight for your throat.

689
00:45:26,300 --> 00:45:27,133
- Try it.

690
00:45:27,133 --> 00:45:28,740
- Cool off, Jed, it isn't worth it.

691
00:45:28,740 --> 00:45:31,215
- Don't let him push you around, Jed.

692
00:45:31,215 --> 00:45:33,632
(Jack yelps)

693
00:45:37,631 --> 00:45:39,500
- I'm Captain Malloy's son, nobody ever

694
00:45:39,500 --> 00:45:40,470
talks to me like that.

695
00:45:40,470 --> 00:45:41,943
- You gonna let him do that?

696
00:45:41,943 --> 00:45:43,081
You can take him, Jed.

697
00:45:43,081 --> 00:45:45,845
- Get him Jed.
- Jed, don't do this.

698
00:45:45,845 --> 00:45:47,206
- Oh, here we go.

699
00:45:47,206 --> 00:45:51,310
- Help, colored boys
gonna kill me, father.

700
00:45:51,310 --> 00:45:52,961
- Get him off.

701
00:45:52,961 --> 00:45:54,523
Jed, don't do it.

702
00:45:54,523 --> 00:45:55,356
- Get him off.

703
00:45:57,990 --> 00:45:59,530
- I'm going to tell my father.

704
00:45:59,530 --> 00:46:00,920
They'll court martial
you and string you up

705
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:02,330
in colored people's jail.

706
00:46:02,330 --> 00:46:03,590
- You're going to tell your father

707
00:46:03,590 --> 00:46:05,420
that this little colored boy beat you?

708
00:46:05,420 --> 00:46:07,020
What's he going to think of you?

709
00:46:08,860 --> 00:46:11,020
- Jed, I know you didn't take the watch.

710
00:46:13,180 --> 00:46:14,230
- Maybe I did.

711
00:46:34,180 --> 00:46:35,740
- [Adult Jed] We heard
rumors that we'd soon

712
00:46:35,740 --> 00:46:37,720
march back to Virginia to track down

713
00:46:37,720 --> 00:46:39,540
a group of Rebel soldiers called

714
00:46:39,540 --> 00:46:41,633
The Fort Resolve Raiders were blowing up

715
00:46:41,633 --> 00:46:44,820
Union railroad lines and ammunition dumps.

716
00:46:44,820 --> 00:46:47,274
Master had often gone
hunting with these men.

717
00:46:47,274 --> 00:46:50,365
Their fort was close by to our plantation.

718
00:46:50,365 --> 00:46:51,820
(laughing)

719
00:46:51,820 --> 00:46:52,653
- Listen up!

720
00:46:52,653 --> 00:46:54,530
Tomorrow we march into Virginia.

721
00:46:54,530 --> 00:46:56,505
We're returning to Manassas.

722
00:46:56,505 --> 00:46:58,755
(cheering)

723
00:46:59,832 --> 00:47:00,920
- Men!

724
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:02,060
I'll carry any of your keepsakes for you

725
00:47:02,060 --> 00:47:02,893
in case...

726
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:05,310
- In case we die?

727
00:47:12,241 --> 00:47:14,657
- I think we should pray, Chaplain.

728
00:47:14,657 --> 00:47:16,057
- Our chaplain doesn't pray.

729
00:47:20,630 --> 00:47:23,297
(intense music)

730
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:34,650
- I can see them.

731
00:47:34,650 --> 00:47:37,240
- They can see you, how
do you feel about that?

732
00:47:37,240 --> 00:47:38,670
- I can smell 'em.

733
00:47:51,694 --> 00:47:53,861
(gunfire)

734
00:48:02,795 --> 00:48:06,845
- [General] Boys up, fall
in at the double clap.

735
00:48:06,845 --> 00:48:08,845
Charge!

736
00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:12,247
(gunfire)

737
00:48:34,112 --> 00:48:36,199
(gunfire)

738
00:48:36,199 --> 00:48:38,899
(horse whinnies)

739
00:48:38,899 --> 00:48:41,399
(men yelling)

740
00:49:01,638 --> 00:49:03,720
LIsten, we've almost got 'em licked.

741
00:49:03,720 --> 00:49:05,030
There's a few snipers left.

742
00:49:05,030 --> 00:49:07,770
Get in the woods and flank 'em.

743
00:49:11,444 --> 00:49:12,990
- Into the woods and wait for me.

744
00:49:12,990 --> 00:49:15,510
I've got to help some of these wounded.

745
00:49:25,045 --> 00:49:28,017
(shouting)

746
00:49:28,017 --> 00:49:30,184
(gunfire)

747
00:49:34,940 --> 00:49:36,840
- Jed, try to keep this soldier alive.

748
00:49:38,410 --> 00:49:39,860
- Here, try this on for size.

749
00:49:41,249 --> 00:49:42,390
- What are you doin'?

750
00:49:42,390 --> 00:49:44,170
- He needs a gun to protect himself.

751
00:49:44,170 --> 00:49:45,003
- Jed, he's cold.

752
00:49:45,003 --> 00:49:46,190
Give me a blanket.

753
00:49:46,190 --> 00:49:47,520
- No, he's just a rebel, Sir.

754
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:49,180
- He's still a man, give me a blanket.

755
00:49:49,180 --> 00:49:50,900
- Men like this killed his Pa.

756
00:49:50,900 --> 00:49:53,120
- If he hates, he's
just as bad as they are.

757
00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:54,020
Give me a blanket.

758
00:50:00,150 --> 00:50:01,590
Come on, Jimmy, Jesse.

759
00:50:01,590 --> 00:50:02,977
We need help.

760
00:50:02,977 --> 00:50:04,690
Go ahead and take care of yourself.

761
00:50:07,453 --> 00:50:09,254
- I wouldn't blame ya if you want

762
00:50:09,254 --> 00:50:10,784
to use it on him for any reason.

763
00:50:10,784 --> 00:50:11,830
I never bothered the prisoners much.

764
00:50:13,968 --> 00:50:16,395
(gunfire)

765
00:50:16,395 --> 00:50:19,196
(men shouting)

766
00:50:19,196 --> 00:50:21,457
(grunting)

767
00:50:21,457 --> 00:50:23,757
- Haven't you ever seen
a Reb up close before?

768
00:50:28,670 --> 00:50:29,770
What's your name, boy?

769
00:50:32,100 --> 00:50:32,933
- Jed.

770
00:50:34,129 --> 00:50:35,080
- [Rebel] You a slave, Jed?

771
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:36,050
- Not no more.

772
00:50:37,820 --> 00:50:38,820
- Who's your master?

773
00:50:41,420 --> 00:50:42,420
- General Cooper.

774
00:50:44,041 --> 00:50:46,060
- He's stationed over at
Fort Resolve with his son

775
00:50:46,060 --> 00:50:48,110
about 50 miles from here.

776
00:50:48,110 --> 00:50:50,060
I'm sure he'd like to know you're here.

777
00:50:56,565 --> 00:50:58,415
If General Cooper was here right now.

778
00:51:00,898 --> 00:51:01,848
Would you kill him?

779
00:51:10,191 --> 00:51:12,341
I know you wouldn't
use that on me, my boy.

780
00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:18,920
Hold your horses.

781
00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:20,620
I'm just gettin' more comfortable.

782
00:51:21,495 --> 00:51:22,528
(gunfire)

783
00:51:22,528 --> 00:51:24,495
- Help, Casey.

784
00:51:24,495 --> 00:51:25,545
- You stay away, boy.

785
00:51:27,010 --> 00:51:27,989
- Hey!

786
00:51:27,989 --> 00:51:28,989
- Casey!
- Help him.

787
00:51:28,989 --> 00:51:29,891
Help him.

788
00:51:29,891 --> 00:51:30,840
- Casey never told the Captain his leg

789
00:51:31,959 --> 00:51:33,508
got grazed while saving me

790
00:51:33,508 --> 00:51:34,573
from that Rebel soldier
that I was supposed

791
00:51:34,573 --> 00:51:35,440
to guard.

792
00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:36,740
Maybe Tennessee was right.

793
00:51:38,237 --> 00:51:40,755
When you take orders
from Rebs all your life,

794
00:51:40,755 --> 00:51:43,570
it ain't so easy to fire a gun at them.

795
00:51:54,820 --> 00:51:56,880
- Dear soldier, I just saw your ad

796
00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:58,430
in the Waverly Magazine.

797
00:51:58,430 --> 00:52:00,940
You appear to be a very fine gentleman

798
00:52:00,940 --> 00:52:03,280
and I would enjoy writing to you.

799
00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:06,120
Yours truly, Hannah Frye.

800
00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:07,736
- Whew in another week--

801
00:52:07,736 --> 00:52:09,774
(all groan)

802
00:52:09,774 --> 00:52:10,680
- Yeah you will.

803
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:11,960
- More mail, guys.

804
00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:13,150
Emerson.

805
00:52:13,150 --> 00:52:15,300
Got a package for you, Jesse.

806
00:52:15,300 --> 00:52:17,440
Tennessee, oh, that's right.

807
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:18,950
You don't know how to read.

808
00:52:19,956 --> 00:52:21,390
- I haven't heard from Molly.

809
00:52:21,390 --> 00:52:24,018
Don't know if everything's
all right at home.

810
00:52:24,018 --> 00:52:25,335
- Babies like to come late, man,

811
00:52:25,335 --> 00:52:26,762
don't fret so much.

812
00:52:26,762 --> 00:52:28,320
- Hey, listen to this, boys.

813
00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:29,383
Pittsburgh Inquirer.

814
00:52:29,383 --> 00:52:33,293
The southern rebellion
is on its last legs.

815
00:52:33,293 --> 00:52:34,670
(laughing)

816
00:52:34,670 --> 00:52:36,570
Nearly all it's supplies are cut off.

817
00:52:36,570 --> 00:52:39,480
In a very brief period,
the south will thus

818
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:41,509
be forced to submit.

819
00:52:41,509 --> 00:52:43,023
(laughing)

820
00:52:43,023 --> 00:52:44,190
- Why in tarnation do they print this

821
00:52:44,190 --> 00:52:45,940
in the papers anyway?

822
00:52:45,940 --> 00:52:47,300
- If they the truth, nobody's going to

823
00:52:47,300 --> 00:52:48,270
support this war.

824
00:52:48,270 --> 00:52:50,298
- Look what we've got here, boys.

825
00:52:50,298 --> 00:52:52,181
(cheering)

826
00:52:52,181 --> 00:52:54,485
- [Casey] Oh, condensed milk.

827
00:52:54,485 --> 00:52:57,726
Needles and thread, we got
a company seamstress, boys.

828
00:52:57,726 --> 00:52:59,230
(cheering)

829
00:52:59,230 --> 00:53:00,810
- She just never sends me anything

830
00:53:00,810 --> 00:53:03,049
that's made in a southern factory.

831
00:53:03,049 --> 00:53:04,510
(soldiers groan)

832
00:53:04,510 --> 00:53:05,805
- Give me my skunk back.

833
00:53:05,805 --> 00:53:08,126
- You don't eat that anyhow.

834
00:53:08,126 --> 00:53:10,652
- Got a letter from a girl in Virginny.

835
00:53:10,652 --> 00:53:12,985
(men cheer)

836
00:53:23,932 --> 00:53:26,900
- Jed, you're a better soldier than I am.

837
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:35,990
I don't really care much
for those old camp songs.

838
00:53:35,990 --> 00:53:38,560
They make me feel homesick.

839
00:53:39,980 --> 00:53:41,690
I prefer the old standards like

840
00:53:42,900 --> 00:53:45,080
"Old Rugged Cross" and "By the River".

841
00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:46,810
- They're all right.

842
00:53:46,810 --> 00:53:48,250
I just don't sing 'em anymore.

843
00:53:48,250 --> 00:53:49,624
- Yeah.

844
00:53:49,624 --> 00:53:52,790
Matt said that we were near your home.

845
00:53:55,190 --> 00:53:58,050
Jed, are you all right?

846
00:54:00,900 --> 00:54:01,780
- He's out there.

847
00:54:03,790 --> 00:54:04,690
- Who's out there?

848
00:54:06,300 --> 00:54:07,300
- Master Cooper.

849
00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:10,210
Maybe I'll see him tomorrow.

850
00:54:10,210 --> 00:54:11,780
- You can stay in the back,

851
00:54:11,780 --> 00:54:13,360
with Chaplain Stewart and me.

852
00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:16,560
- No, I want to stay on the frontline.

853
00:54:18,250 --> 00:54:19,100
- All right then.

854
00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:23,150
I'll be on the frontline then with you.

855
00:54:24,300 --> 00:54:25,460
You stick by me.

856
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:46,330
- Something's troubling
you, boy, what is it?

857
00:54:53,554 --> 00:54:56,140
- [Adult Jed] On May 31st in the woods

858
00:54:56,140 --> 00:54:59,780
near Leavens Mill, an unknown
band of Rebel sharpshooters

859
00:54:59,780 --> 00:55:02,060
attacked us in great force.

860
00:55:02,060 --> 00:55:06,070
By noon, some of our own
pickers broke and ran.

861
00:55:06,070 --> 00:55:07,010
- Yellow bellies!

862
00:55:08,065 --> 00:55:10,040
- I say we get out of here while we can.

863
00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:11,660
- We don't retreat until we're ordered

864
00:55:11,660 --> 00:55:12,493
to retreat.

865
00:55:13,980 --> 00:55:15,810
- Fears or orders.

866
00:55:15,810 --> 00:55:17,978
It's time to get out of here.

867
00:55:17,978 --> 00:55:19,744
- Matt, where's your sense of fight?

868
00:55:19,744 --> 00:55:21,355
- He's got a baby on the way.

869
00:55:21,355 --> 00:55:23,955
- There's at least four
battery of cannon out there.

870
00:55:28,540 --> 00:55:29,440
- Jack, come back.

871
00:55:30,312 --> 00:55:31,215
Jack!

872
00:55:31,215 --> 00:55:32,048
Come back.

873
00:55:32,048 --> 00:55:33,177
- Get back here.

874
00:55:33,177 --> 00:55:36,720
- Jack!

875
00:55:38,077 --> 00:55:39,744
Jack!

876
00:55:41,199 --> 00:55:43,032
Jack!

877
00:56:18,750 --> 00:56:20,159
fodder guns.

878
00:56:20,159 --> 00:56:21,130
They aint' got nothing but a bunch of logs

879
00:56:21,130 --> 00:56:22,792
painted up to fool us.

880
00:56:22,792 --> 00:56:24,250
- You've got a vivid imagination, boy.

881
00:56:26,260 --> 00:56:27,093
- That ain't no log.

882
00:56:27,093 --> 00:56:29,050
- There are only a few
Johnny Rebs shootin' at us.

883
00:56:29,050 --> 00:56:31,431
- You want to go out
there and finish them off?

884
00:56:31,431 --> 00:56:32,264
- Quaker guns.

885
00:56:32,264 --> 00:56:34,100
They don't have the numbers we do.

886
00:56:34,100 --> 00:56:34,933
They're trying to scare us with these

887
00:56:34,933 --> 00:56:35,766
painted logs.

888
00:56:35,766 --> 00:56:37,440
- It don't look like no painted gun to me.

889
00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:38,830
- Jed might be right.

890
00:56:38,830 --> 00:56:39,940
Firing's coming from over there.

891
00:56:39,940 --> 00:56:41,010
Maybe we can take 'em.

892
00:56:41,010 --> 00:56:43,740
- Yeah, there's men
firing up there all right.

893
00:56:43,740 --> 00:56:45,630
- I bet it's just a handful
of them sharpshooters

894
00:56:45,630 --> 00:56:46,530
like Jed said.

895
00:56:51,069 --> 00:56:51,990
- Hey there, boys.

896
00:56:51,990 --> 00:56:53,740
They want us to focus off raiders.

897
00:56:53,740 --> 00:56:55,764
Why do they give us such a hard time?

898
00:56:55,764 --> 00:56:56,843
Good boy, Jack.

899
00:56:56,843 --> 00:56:58,540
- Jack, I told you not to go out there.

900
00:57:01,290 --> 00:57:02,390
They shot my dog.

901
00:57:04,460 --> 00:57:06,106
- Jack's just grazed a little, that's all.

902
00:57:06,106 --> 00:57:08,408
- They killed my father.

903
00:57:08,408 --> 00:57:10,880
I'm going to make them pay.

904
00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:12,807
Casey, give me a gun.

905
00:57:12,807 --> 00:57:14,140
I ain't going to sit here no more.

906
00:57:14,140 --> 00:57:14,973
- Don't do it.

907
00:57:14,973 --> 00:57:16,180
Remember that Reb he was supposed

908
00:57:16,180 --> 00:57:17,490
to keep an eye on?

909
00:57:17,490 --> 00:57:18,950
- Does he look like the
same boy to you now?

910
00:57:18,950 --> 00:57:20,770
- I want to go with Jed, Casey.

911
00:57:20,770 --> 00:57:22,388
And Jimmy, too, if he's not too scared.

912
00:57:22,388 --> 00:57:23,796
- I'm not scared.

913
00:57:23,796 --> 00:57:25,860
- Casey, they're just children.

914
00:57:25,860 --> 00:57:27,470
- If we don't take those snipers now,

915
00:57:27,470 --> 00:57:29,930
they'll send twice the men by tonight.

916
00:57:29,930 --> 00:57:31,400
- You'll burn in hell for this.

917
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:33,690
- You always talk that
way to your son, Reverend.

918
00:57:33,690 --> 00:57:36,000
Ever wonder why he joined the army?

919
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:37,240
- Jed, for God's sake, you'll take

920
00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:38,540
these boys to their death.

921
00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:41,830
- Casey, I'm going to
sneak up behind them.

922
00:57:41,830 --> 00:57:42,840
Catch them off guard.

923
00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:44,290
- I'm going with them, father.

924
00:57:44,290 --> 00:57:45,470
- You're not ready, boy.

925
00:57:45,470 --> 00:57:46,840
- I'm not a boy anymore.

926
00:57:51,298 --> 00:57:53,780
- Take care of my dog, Reverend Stewart.

927
00:57:53,780 --> 00:57:54,790
He's bleeding badly.

928
00:57:58,410 --> 00:58:00,610
- All right boys, let's
give Jed some cover.

929
00:58:13,995 --> 00:58:17,427
(eerie ambience)

930
00:58:17,427 --> 00:58:20,594
(gunfire in distance)

931
00:58:34,503 --> 00:58:36,670
(gunfire)

932
00:58:50,408 --> 00:58:52,575
(gunfire)

933
00:58:58,290 --> 00:58:59,810
- I order you to surrender.

934
00:59:02,270 --> 00:59:03,580
- [Rebel Soldier] Drop your gun, boys.

935
00:59:03,580 --> 00:59:05,190
- Don't move.

936
00:59:05,190 --> 00:59:06,023
- I don't want to get hurt.

937
00:59:08,100 --> 00:59:11,390
We all just want to go home, don't we?

938
00:59:11,390 --> 00:59:12,223
I know I do.

939
00:59:13,260 --> 00:59:14,340
See my little girl.

940
00:59:22,050 --> 00:59:24,060
I order you to surrender
to the confederacy.

941
00:59:29,980 --> 00:59:30,970
- You've only got enough lead in there

942
00:59:30,970 --> 00:59:31,930
to kill one person.

943
00:59:34,280 --> 00:59:36,260
- I guess I'll aim at you, colored boy.

944
00:59:40,776 --> 00:59:42,490
(gunfire)

945
00:59:42,490 --> 00:59:45,240
(grunts in pain)

946
00:59:48,550 --> 00:59:50,110
- You tried to kill me, Sir.

947
00:59:54,477 --> 00:59:56,200
- You know who you're up against now, boy.

948
01:00:00,750 --> 01:00:02,490
Fort Resolve Raiders.

949
01:00:04,990 --> 01:00:07,610
That young man will pay for this?

950
01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:16,170
- He's an officer.

951
01:00:16,170 --> 01:00:17,920
The sharpshooters must be close by.

952
01:00:19,470 --> 01:00:20,720
- Let's go get them then.

953
01:00:33,510 --> 01:00:34,640
- Must be five of them up there.

954
01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:36,550
- I can take 'em.

955
01:00:36,550 --> 01:00:39,302
- No, you don't have to do anything.

956
01:00:39,302 --> 01:00:40,700
I'll go.

957
01:00:42,210 --> 01:00:43,730
- No, Jesse, it's my job.

958
01:00:44,650 --> 01:00:46,240
- I'm going, Jed.

959
01:00:47,940 --> 01:00:49,190
It's about time I fought.

960
01:00:54,810 --> 01:00:58,160
Jimmy, go around that way and cover him.

961
01:01:14,119 --> 01:01:17,036
(groaning in pain)

962
01:01:25,710 --> 01:01:26,860
- All this spilt blood.

963
01:01:28,313 --> 01:01:30,061
It's going to mean something some day,

964
01:01:30,061 --> 01:01:31,320
isn't it?

965
01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:32,270
- I hope so, Jesse.

966
01:01:34,956 --> 01:01:36,480
- Can you promise me something?

967
01:01:37,640 --> 01:01:42,000
Promise me you'll tell my mom

968
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:43,500
that I was a brave boy.

969
01:01:47,210 --> 01:01:48,080
- I'll tell her.

970
01:01:53,450 --> 01:01:54,960
I promise to kill every Rebel

971
01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:56,220
I lay my hands on.

972
01:02:06,808 --> 01:02:10,833
- Jed, I'm scared Jed.

973
01:02:10,833 --> 01:02:14,303
There's bullets flying everywhere.

974
01:02:14,303 --> 01:02:17,136
We're going to find 'em aren't we?

975
01:02:20,293 --> 01:02:22,040
- Shh, stay here.

976
01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:22,873
You'll be safe.

977
01:02:24,514 --> 01:02:27,181
(intense music)

978
01:02:32,428 --> 01:02:34,495
(gunshot)

979
01:02:34,495 --> 01:02:37,328
(moaning in pain)

980
01:02:49,344 --> 01:02:52,011
(intense music)

981
01:02:59,107 --> 01:03:01,274
(gunshot)

982
01:03:05,820 --> 01:03:06,960
That's for Jesse.

983
01:03:34,980 --> 01:03:35,900
- Jed got the snipers.

984
01:03:35,900 --> 01:03:38,084
Every single one of 'em.

985
01:03:38,084 --> 01:03:40,417
(men cheer)

986
01:03:48,380 --> 01:03:49,213
- He's going to be all right.

987
01:03:49,213 --> 01:03:50,710
- Where's Jesse?

988
01:03:50,710 --> 01:03:51,543
- He's dead.

989
01:03:56,107 --> 01:03:59,289
♪ I shall not want ♪

990
01:03:59,289 --> 01:04:04,289
♪ He makes me down to lie ♪

991
01:04:06,240 --> 01:04:10,285
♪ In pastures green ♪

992
01:04:10,285 --> 01:04:13,830
♪ He leadeth me ♪

993
01:04:13,830 --> 01:04:18,330
♪ The quiet waters by ♪

994
01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:23,500
- A greater love hath no man than this.

995
01:04:23,500 --> 01:04:25,885
He lay down his life for his friend.

996
01:04:25,885 --> 01:04:29,130
But what am I supposed to say now, God?

997
01:04:29,130 --> 01:04:32,570
That we trust this boy
to your steadfast care?

998
01:04:32,570 --> 01:04:34,560
This boy who never hated until someone

999
01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:35,670
taught him to.

1000
01:04:35,670 --> 01:04:36,870
- [Jed] That's not true.

1001
01:04:38,130 --> 01:04:39,380
He didn't hate nobody.

1002
01:04:40,810 --> 01:04:42,510
All he wanted to do was
set the slaves free,

1003
01:04:42,510 --> 01:04:43,343
that's all.

1004
01:04:47,110 --> 01:04:48,060
- [Adult Jed] I thought about Jesse

1005
01:04:48,060 --> 01:04:51,260
and how he laid down his
life for me that day.

1006
01:04:51,260 --> 01:04:53,270
I lost a lot of blood and I wish

1007
01:04:53,270 --> 01:04:55,710
I could die so I could
go be with my friend.

1008
01:05:02,950 --> 01:05:04,340
- Don't be foolish, Chaplain,

1009
01:05:04,340 --> 01:05:05,830
he'll be dead by morning.

1010
01:05:05,830 --> 01:05:07,760
And his blood will be on your hands.

1011
01:05:08,870 --> 01:05:10,572
- [Adult Jed] The surgeon said he would

1012
01:05:10,572 --> 01:05:12,760
have to cut off my leg
if I wanted to live.

1013
01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:14,480
I knew I couldn't be a soldier no more

1014
01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:16,080
and started to cry.

1015
01:05:16,080 --> 01:05:17,430
- You're a good man.

1016
01:05:17,430 --> 01:05:19,787
- [Adult Jed] Then Reverend Stewart

1017
01:05:19,787 --> 01:05:21,316
did something I never
thought he would do before.

1018
01:05:21,316 --> 01:05:23,695
He started yelling at that surgeon

1019
01:05:23,695 --> 01:05:25,680
and said he'd use his saw on him

1020
01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:27,180
if he tried to cut off my leg.

1021
01:05:36,034 --> 01:05:37,710
- Thank you, Chaplain.

1022
01:05:37,710 --> 01:05:39,310
- You won't thank me if you die.

1023
01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:43,180
- Can you hand me my canteen?

1024
01:05:49,869 --> 01:05:53,286
(melancholy piano music)

1025
01:05:57,690 --> 01:05:58,970
- What did the solder look like

1026
01:05:58,970 --> 01:06:00,400
back at the plantation?

1027
01:06:02,820 --> 01:06:04,810
- He was tall, like you.

1028
01:06:11,446 --> 01:06:12,279
He had the same eyes.

1029
01:06:13,470 --> 01:06:16,030
And he said, his father never wrote back.

1030
01:06:25,230 --> 01:06:27,280
- Why didn't you give this to me earlier?

1031
01:06:28,650 --> 01:06:31,790
- You told me never to
speak of your son, Sir.

1032
01:06:34,948 --> 01:06:38,460
Sir, your son would be here today except

1033
01:06:38,460 --> 01:06:39,650
he tried to save me.

1034
01:06:40,980 --> 01:06:41,970
- Say that again.

1035
01:06:42,810 --> 01:06:44,650
- Your son ran in front of those bullets

1036
01:06:44,650 --> 01:06:46,350
to get me and Kirk out of the way.

1037
01:06:56,129 --> 01:06:58,129
(sighs)

1038
01:07:04,300 --> 01:07:05,550
- [Adult Jed] Nathaniel wrote how sorry

1039
01:07:05,550 --> 01:07:07,510
he was for running away from home

1040
01:07:07,510 --> 01:07:09,620
and leaving his father all alone.

1041
01:07:09,620 --> 01:07:11,400
I believe the Reverend forgave his son

1042
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:12,260
that day.

1043
01:07:12,260 --> 01:07:14,190
I hoped he'd do the same for me.

1044
01:07:25,217 --> 01:07:26,884
- [Jed] I'm thirsty.

1045
01:07:32,795 --> 01:07:34,130
- Why didn't God take that colored boy

1046
01:07:34,130 --> 01:07:35,330
instead of my son?

1047
01:07:38,056 --> 01:07:39,674
- [Jed] I'm thirsty.

1048
01:07:39,674 --> 01:07:41,424
Grandma Storey, give me some water.

1049
01:07:56,430 --> 01:07:58,730
- Have you forgotten
what it's like to suffer?

1050
01:08:02,530 --> 01:08:03,650
- I haven't forgotten.

1051
01:08:04,900 --> 01:08:07,110
- Then help those boys, Reverend.

1052
01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:22,800
- Matt, go get the rest of the men.

1053
01:08:22,800 --> 01:08:24,320
We're going to pray.

1054
01:08:24,320 --> 01:08:25,440
- [Nat] You, pray?

1055
01:08:28,920 --> 01:08:31,030
- [Adult Jed] That night and the next day,

1056
01:08:31,030 --> 01:08:32,810
Reverend Stewart and the rest of the boys

1057
01:08:32,810 --> 01:08:34,950
prayed for me and Dog Jack.

1058
01:08:35,899 --> 01:08:37,170
It'll be the first time I've seen

1059
01:08:37,170 --> 01:08:39,320
our Chaplain pray since his wife died.

1060
01:08:45,190 --> 01:08:47,270
- [Reverend] My son kept
his secret things in here.

1061
01:08:47,270 --> 01:08:49,350
I held onto it for him to give to his son

1062
01:08:49,350 --> 01:08:50,290
some day.

1063
01:08:50,290 --> 01:08:51,736
- I never had toys before.

1064
01:08:51,736 --> 01:08:53,370
- They're all yours.

1065
01:08:54,970 --> 01:08:56,330
Nate liked this the most.

1066
01:09:00,770 --> 01:09:02,060
- Your wife?

1067
01:09:02,060 --> 01:09:03,410
- Yes.

1068
01:09:03,410 --> 01:09:04,430
He loved her so.

1069
01:09:06,410 --> 01:09:08,230
- He left her, too.

1070
01:09:08,230 --> 01:09:09,630
- I never gave him a chance.

1071
01:09:10,765 --> 01:09:11,865
- You read his letter?

1072
01:09:14,480 --> 01:09:16,070
- In case, you know--

1073
01:09:17,600 --> 01:09:19,930
- In case I don't walk again.

1074
01:09:21,020 --> 01:09:21,853
- Would you like to come back

1075
01:09:21,853 --> 01:09:22,870
to Pittsburgh with me?

1076
01:09:32,381 --> 01:09:34,340
- I know I broke the rules, Sir.

1077
01:09:34,340 --> 01:09:36,570
- You saved my son's life, Jed.

1078
01:09:36,570 --> 01:09:38,280
I'm very grateful.

1079
01:09:38,280 --> 01:09:41,326
Those were the Fort
Resolve Raiders you fought.

1080
01:09:41,326 --> 01:09:43,200
- My master's at Fort Resolve, Sir.

1081
01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:44,760
- Well we're going to take the fort.

1082
01:09:44,760 --> 01:09:46,100
When we do, you won't have to worry

1083
01:09:46,100 --> 01:09:47,930
about your master no more.

1084
01:09:47,930 --> 01:09:50,100
First, we have to cut their food supplies.

1085
01:09:50,100 --> 01:09:51,420
- Count me in, Captain Malloy.

1086
01:09:51,420 --> 01:09:53,200
- I've ordered Corporal Kaye station you

1087
01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:56,672
a musket, a full uniform,
and a monthly stipend.

1088
01:09:56,672 --> 01:09:58,550
You can rejoin the company as soon as

1089
01:09:58,550 --> 01:09:59,909
you're up and around.

1090
01:09:59,909 --> 01:10:01,270
- I'm not so sure he'll be able to walk.

1091
01:10:01,270 --> 01:10:02,900
- We'll see about that.

1092
01:10:07,683 --> 01:10:10,133
I guess I won't be going
back to Pittsburgh, Sir.

1093
01:10:11,340 --> 01:10:13,630
- You got to get even
with Master Cooper then.

1094
01:10:19,256 --> 01:10:20,089
- Do you think I'll go to hell

1095
01:10:20,089 --> 01:10:21,420
for fighting in this war, Sir?

1096
01:10:22,770 --> 01:10:24,340
- I don't know, but hate can send

1097
01:10:24,340 --> 01:10:26,610
a man to hell even before he dies.

1098
01:10:26,610 --> 01:10:28,364
- But how can a man fight in this war

1099
01:10:28,364 --> 01:10:30,429
and not hate, Sir?

1100
01:10:30,429 --> 01:10:33,346
(melancholy music)

1101
01:10:35,951 --> 01:10:38,701
(men chattering)

1102
01:10:41,200 --> 01:10:43,030
- Molly gave birth to a baby girl today.

1103
01:10:43,030 --> 01:10:44,000
Details later.

1104
01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:44,870
Love, Mother.

1105
01:10:44,870 --> 01:10:46,482
I'm a father.

1106
01:10:46,482 --> 01:10:49,240
(cheering)

1107
01:10:49,240 --> 01:10:51,416
- [Adult Jed] My leg healed up during

1108
01:10:51,416 --> 01:10:52,249
that Summer.

1109
01:10:52,249 --> 01:10:53,970
I was old enough to fight but green enough

1110
01:10:53,970 --> 01:10:55,540
to think that smoking and playing cards

1111
01:10:55,540 --> 01:10:57,290
would make me a man.

1112
01:10:58,860 --> 01:11:00,440
We drilled and started to prepare

1113
01:11:00,440 --> 01:11:02,960
for the eventual raid on Fort Resolve.

1114
01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:05,550
Casey taught me how to
hate Rebel soldiers.

1115
01:11:05,550 --> 01:11:07,460
And with all I'd been through,

1116
01:11:07,460 --> 01:11:09,589
that wasn't hard for me to learn.

1117
01:11:09,589 --> 01:11:12,089
(cannon fire)

1118
01:11:13,289 --> 01:11:15,030
(gunfire)

1119
01:11:15,030 --> 01:11:16,180
- [Captain] Seize fire!

1120
01:11:18,200 --> 01:11:19,100
I said seize fire.

1121
01:11:20,320 --> 01:11:22,000
- They're still out there.

1122
01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:23,120
- They're all dead.

1123
01:11:26,762 --> 01:11:27,830
- We need water, father.

1124
01:11:27,830 --> 01:11:28,930
I'll go if you let me.

1125
01:11:30,330 --> 01:11:31,730
- What kind of men are we if we can't

1126
01:11:31,730 --> 01:11:33,180
give some water to the dying?

1127
01:11:36,490 --> 01:11:38,147
- Then go.

1128
01:11:38,147 --> 01:11:38,997
- Thank you, Sir.

1129
01:11:42,030 --> 01:11:43,560
- I'm not going to let him go alone.

1130
01:11:43,560 --> 01:11:44,790
- See what happened to my hat?

1131
01:11:44,790 --> 01:11:46,060
- He's a kid, he's better off

1132
01:11:46,060 --> 01:11:46,893
by himself.

1133
01:11:48,243 --> 01:11:49,684
(Jack barks)

1134
01:11:49,684 --> 01:11:51,517
- Jack, get back here.

1135
01:11:53,472 --> 01:11:56,055
(somber music)

1136
01:12:31,503 --> 01:12:34,253
(men chattering)

1137
01:12:35,988 --> 01:12:36,821
- Hey!

1138
01:12:38,917 --> 01:12:41,195
- What Jim boy is this?

1139
01:12:41,195 --> 01:12:43,302
Huh, we're going to get some food.

1140
01:12:43,302 --> 01:12:44,363
You wanna come?

1141
01:12:44,363 --> 01:12:46,500
- Yeah, you wanna come?

1142
01:12:46,500 --> 01:12:48,000
- Is this expedition with or without

1143
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:49,080
my father's orders?

1144
01:12:49,080 --> 01:12:50,100
- Well we'll sanction it after

1145
01:12:50,100 --> 01:12:51,440
we're successful.

1146
01:12:51,440 --> 01:12:52,638
(laughing)

1147
01:12:52,638 --> 01:12:54,395
- Yeah, yeah, come on.

1148
01:12:54,395 --> 01:12:55,854
- Yeah, you can be Captain tonight, Jimmy.

1149
01:12:55,854 --> 01:12:57,915
(laughing)

1150
01:12:57,915 --> 01:13:00,780
- That's right, hey, maybe
we'll get some torches

1151
01:13:00,780 --> 01:13:02,316
and burn some barns.

1152
01:13:02,316 --> 01:13:03,741

- What are you doing?

1160
01:13:25,270 --> 01:13:27,090
- We do this, one less rebel will march

1161
01:13:27,090 --> 01:13:27,923
on a full stomach.

1162
01:13:27,923 --> 01:13:29,160
- Why do we have to burn the barn?

1163
01:13:29,160 --> 01:13:30,600
The children won't have anything to eat.

1164
01:13:30,600 --> 01:13:31,670
- We burn down these barns,

1165
01:13:31,670 --> 01:13:32,840
the sooner the war will be over

1166
01:13:32,840 --> 01:13:34,500
and that boys daddy can come home.

1167
01:13:34,500 --> 01:13:36,360
They want to eat, let them surrender.

1168
01:13:41,089 --> 01:13:41,922
- Burn!

1169
01:13:43,030 --> 01:13:45,697
(fire crackles)

1170
01:13:50,253 --> 01:13:52,160
- [Adult Jed] When we
burned down that barn,

1171
01:13:52,160 --> 01:13:54,150
we didn't figure those
flames could be seen

1172
01:13:54,150 --> 01:13:56,880
by Fort Resolve Pickers
several miles away.

1173
01:14:01,835 --> 01:14:03,730
They were outraged at our burning

1174
01:14:03,730 --> 01:14:04,920
their food supplies.

1175
01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:09,010
They came out to capture us.

1176
01:14:09,010 --> 01:14:10,579
Our men were so drunk with whiskey

1177
01:14:10,579 --> 01:14:13,066
they didn't fight back at all.

1178
01:14:13,066 --> 01:14:14,034
- Gotcha now.

1179
01:14:14,034 --> 01:14:16,784
(horse whinnies)

1180
01:14:18,046 --> 01:14:20,629
- Is that colored man in there?

1181
01:14:36,373 --> 01:14:39,280
- [Adult Jed] In 1862, Jefferson Davis

1182
01:14:39,280 --> 01:14:40,920
issued an order that gave southern

1183
01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:43,230
prisons the right to do pretty much

1184
01:14:43,230 --> 01:14:45,500
as they please with
captured negro soldiers.

1185
01:14:47,290 --> 01:14:50,161
Unless I could be of some
use to the southern army,

1186
01:14:50,161 --> 01:14:54,140
there wasn't much reason
for them to keep me alive.

1187
01:14:54,140 --> 01:14:58,180
- The Army of the
Confederate States of America

1188
01:14:58,180 --> 01:14:59,020
welcomes you.

1189
01:15:00,636 --> 01:15:04,680
And will be much obliged to have your cap.

1190
01:15:04,680 --> 01:15:08,500
Boots, straps, belts, coats,
gentleman, everything.

1191
01:15:08,500 --> 01:15:09,333
What's that?

1192
01:15:15,290 --> 01:15:17,640
Boots, come on, everything.

1193
01:15:34,736 --> 01:15:37,069
(chuckling)

1194
01:15:39,700 --> 01:15:41,639
Shall we shoot him now, boys?

1195
01:15:41,639 --> 01:15:42,570
- [Several Men] Yeah.

1196
01:15:42,570 --> 01:15:44,990
- We get cash if we turn him in.

1197
01:15:44,990 --> 01:15:46,100
Who's your master?

1198
01:15:50,140 --> 01:15:54,660
Speak up, boy.

1199
01:15:55,880 --> 01:15:58,030
- I heard this dog was responsible

1200
01:15:58,030 --> 01:15:59,580
for spotting our sharpshooters

1201
01:15:59,580 --> 01:16:00,930
up at Leavens Mill.

1202
01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:03,300
- Leave Jack alone.

1203
01:16:03,300 --> 01:16:05,330
He was General Cooper's best hunting dog.

1204
01:16:05,330 --> 01:16:07,140
- [Rebel] Then I suppose you belong

1205
01:16:07,140 --> 01:16:08,440
to General Cooper as well?

1206
01:16:10,550 --> 01:16:12,550
- You don't belong to no General Cooper.

1207
01:16:14,450 --> 01:16:16,210
- [Rebel] If he's Cooper's
slave then he should be

1208
01:16:16,210 --> 01:16:17,460
loyal to the Confederacy.

1209
01:16:23,760 --> 01:16:24,593
- Put it on.

1210
01:16:32,030 --> 01:16:33,240
Prove you're one of us.

1211
01:16:41,560 --> 01:16:42,880
Kill this Yankee saboteur.

1212
01:16:48,780 --> 01:16:51,270
Do it or I'll drop you
and your dog right now.

1213
01:16:57,650 --> 01:16:59,100
- You pull that trigger, Jed.

1214
01:17:00,160 --> 01:17:01,390
He'll kill you anyway.

1215
01:17:06,200 --> 01:17:07,910
- His name is Jedidiah Cooper.

1216
01:17:10,449 --> 01:17:12,630
He was my house slave
back on the plantation.

1217
01:17:21,570 --> 01:17:22,870
- What are you doing, boy?

1218
01:17:24,940 --> 01:17:26,320
Sir, do I have permission to kill

1219
01:17:26,320 --> 01:17:30,999
this piece of trash for
defiling the Confederacy?

1220
01:17:30,999 --> 01:17:32,470
- Well he might be a piece of trash

1221
01:17:33,487 --> 01:17:36,154
but he's actually my father's...

1222
01:17:39,230 --> 01:17:40,063
- That can't be.

1223
01:17:42,690 --> 01:17:44,430
- My father will deal with it.

1224
01:17:56,131 --> 01:17:59,881
(men chattering in distance)

1225
01:18:06,196 --> 01:18:07,696
- [Rebel] Come on!

1226
01:18:09,254 --> 01:18:10,635
Stay home with your mama.

1227
01:18:10,635 --> 01:18:12,802
(gunshot)

1228
01:18:13,882 --> 01:18:17,049
(mellow guitar music)

1229
01:18:41,925 --> 01:18:42,758
- Jack!

1230
01:18:43,985 --> 01:18:44,818
Jack!

1231
01:18:47,442 --> 01:18:49,859
(Jack barks)

1232
01:18:51,320 --> 01:18:52,153
- [Adult Jed] It was standard practice

1233
01:18:52,153 --> 01:18:54,040
for both northern and southern prisoners

1234
01:18:54,040 --> 01:18:56,220
not to hinder Chaplains who want to visit

1235
01:18:56,220 --> 01:18:57,053
their men.

1236
01:18:57,053 --> 01:18:59,734
But he was only able
to take Jack that day.

1237
01:18:59,734 --> 01:19:03,042
Dog Jack was the only dog in history

1238
01:19:03,042 --> 01:19:05,690
that I knew of that was valuable enough

1239
01:19:05,690 --> 01:19:08,150
to be exchanged for an enemy prisoner.

1240
01:19:10,497 --> 01:19:13,580
(gentle piano music)

1241
01:19:35,839 --> 01:19:37,312
- Who are you?

1242
01:19:37,312 --> 01:19:38,948
- I'm Nathaniel.

1243
01:19:38,948 --> 01:19:40,531
- Why are you here?

1244
01:19:41,581 --> 01:19:44,664
(gentle piano music)

1245
01:19:59,839 --> 01:20:00,982
- Put this on.

1246
01:20:00,982 --> 01:20:03,649
You're going to see the General.

1247
01:20:16,449 --> 01:20:19,032
(mellow music)

1248
01:21:22,506 --> 01:21:25,752
- You know, my boys have a pretty savage

1249
01:21:25,752 --> 01:21:27,850
reputation, don't think much of killing

1250
01:21:27,850 --> 01:21:29,430
a Yankee prisoner.

1251
01:21:29,430 --> 01:21:31,760
Say nothing of a colored Yankee.

1252
01:21:32,620 --> 01:21:35,270
There's really not much I
can do to keep you alive.

1253
01:21:36,446 --> 01:21:39,583
Unless I can give them a good reason

1254
01:21:39,583 --> 01:21:41,060
not to kill ya.

1255
01:21:42,070 --> 01:21:42,903
- Like what?

1256
01:21:47,530 --> 01:21:49,650
- I'd sure like to find out what your men

1257
01:21:49,650 --> 01:21:51,580
are planning on doing with the Fort.

1258
01:21:52,730 --> 01:21:55,340
I'll put you on double rations if you'll

1259
01:21:55,340 --> 01:21:57,110
snoop on your boys for me.

1260
01:21:59,930 --> 01:22:01,300
- No, Sir.

1261
01:22:03,210 --> 01:22:07,990
- Well, don't say I didn't
give you a chance to live.

1262
01:22:10,470 --> 01:22:11,650
- Where's my dog?

1263
01:22:15,060 --> 01:22:16,930
- I gave your Chaplain a pass to come here

1264
01:22:16,930 --> 01:22:17,780
and get him.

1265
01:22:22,630 --> 01:22:24,230
He asked me to give this to you.

1266
01:22:28,860 --> 01:22:29,693
Dismissed.

1267
01:22:34,940 --> 01:22:36,590
He asked me if he could take you.

1268
01:22:38,484 --> 01:22:39,317
But I told him.

1269
01:22:42,590 --> 01:22:44,710
You can't take my colored boy.

1270
01:22:46,870 --> 01:22:48,030
He's my son.

1271
01:22:53,410 --> 01:22:54,243
Yep.

1272
01:22:55,488 --> 01:22:57,671
My son.

1273
01:22:57,671 --> 01:22:59,504
Jed.

1274
01:23:02,200 --> 01:23:04,940
I hate to see your eyes like that, Jed.

1275
01:23:06,315 --> 01:23:08,634
You know, some people say we've got

1276
01:23:08,634 --> 01:23:10,620
the same eyes.

1277
01:23:10,620 --> 01:23:12,170
Every wonder why they say that?

1278
01:23:15,002 --> 01:23:17,040
- I ain't got the same eyes as you.

1279
01:23:18,561 --> 01:23:21,978
(melancholy piano music)

1280
01:23:39,096 --> 01:23:41,130
- Oh, how I loved your mother.

1281
01:23:50,586 --> 01:23:52,836
(vomiting)

1282
01:23:54,784 --> 01:23:57,701
(intense ambience)

1283
01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:11,123
- Ready!

1284
01:24:11,123 --> 01:24:12,640
Aim!

1285
01:24:12,640 --> 01:24:13,494
Fire!
- No!

1286
01:24:13,494 --> 01:24:15,661
(gunfire)

1287
01:24:21,563 --> 01:24:24,646
(mellow piano music)

1288
01:24:47,510 --> 01:24:49,160
- Okay, two minutes.

1289
01:24:54,470 --> 01:24:55,640
- What did they do to you?

1290
01:24:55,640 --> 01:24:57,520
- Probably trying to teach me a lesson.

1291
01:24:57,520 --> 01:24:59,610
I'm more concerned about you.

1292
01:24:59,610 --> 01:25:00,820
Listen, don't worry about Jack.

1293
01:25:00,820 --> 01:25:02,390
I exchanged a Rebel prisoner for him.

1294
01:25:02,390 --> 01:25:03,223
He's fine.

1295
01:25:04,130 --> 01:25:06,070
What's the matter, Jed.

1296
01:25:06,070 --> 01:25:07,990
- It's hard to say, Sir.

1297
01:25:07,990 --> 01:25:09,690
- Listen, we don't have much time.

1298
01:25:11,230 --> 01:25:12,510
So you get a message to Cooper.

1299
01:25:12,510 --> 01:25:14,950
Tell him you want to
be put on work detail.

1300
01:25:14,950 --> 01:25:16,738
- I ain't no Judas.

1301
01:25:16,738 --> 01:25:18,435
- Listen that's not the plan.

1302
01:25:18,435 --> 01:25:20,588
We're going to bring in
the important war dodgers.

1303
01:25:20,588 --> 01:25:22,338
So remember the plan.

1304
01:25:24,900 --> 01:25:25,733
- Hey, Jed.

1305
01:25:27,494 --> 01:25:29,630
I saved your life.

1306
01:25:29,630 --> 01:25:31,460
Don't you want to say thank you?

1307
01:25:31,460 --> 01:25:32,950
- How's my mama?

1308
01:25:32,950 --> 01:25:34,162
- She's all right.

1309
01:25:34,162 --> 01:25:37,101
After they beat her for running away.

1310
01:25:37,101 --> 01:25:38,380
- And Shadow?

1311
01:25:39,840 --> 01:25:41,490
- He's working in the fields now.

1312
01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:44,850
They both want to see you again, Jed.

1313
01:25:45,930 --> 01:25:47,930
I'd do what my father says if I was you.

1314
01:25:48,800 --> 01:25:51,990
- Kirk, is it true that General Cooper--

1315
01:25:51,990 --> 01:25:52,823
- Yeah.

1316
01:25:55,498 --> 01:25:59,956
- Can you get me out of here?

1317
01:25:59,956 --> 01:26:00,789
- I can't, Jed.

1318
01:26:00,789 --> 01:26:01,622
- Come on.

1319
01:26:03,560 --> 01:26:05,410
And you call yourself a soldier.

1320
01:26:06,637 --> 01:26:08,887
(laughing)

1321
01:26:15,190 --> 01:26:16,023
Yeah.

1322
01:26:23,830 --> 01:26:24,663
- It's Jed.

1323
01:26:24,663 --> 01:26:25,930
- Hey, Jed.
- Jed.

1324
01:26:25,930 --> 01:26:26,763
Good to sed ya.

1325
01:26:26,763 --> 01:26:28,618
- Great to see you, buddy.

1326
01:26:28,618 --> 01:26:29,738
- How are ya?

1327
01:26:29,738 --> 01:26:31,179
- You're still alive, man, that's great.

1328
01:26:31,179 --> 01:26:32,604
- It's good to have you back.

1329
01:26:32,604 --> 01:26:34,466
(men chattering)

1330
01:26:34,466 --> 01:26:35,677
- I said break it up.

1331
01:26:35,677 --> 01:26:36,510
Get back to it.

1332
01:26:38,304 --> 01:26:41,080
- The signal is get back
to work you corn dodgers.

1333
01:26:50,740 --> 01:26:51,990
- What are they planning?

1334
01:26:57,559 --> 01:27:00,726
(mellow guitar music)

1335
01:27:05,570 --> 01:27:07,420
- We haven't had a break all morning.

1336
01:27:11,200 --> 01:27:12,400
- All right, one minute.

1337
01:27:13,740 --> 01:27:16,620
(mellow guitar music)

1338
01:27:16,620 --> 01:27:17,453
Except you.

1339
01:27:23,960 --> 01:27:26,460
- Think he can get some water?

1340
01:27:28,522 --> 01:27:29,894
- Big guy over there's got one.

1341
01:27:29,894 --> 01:27:32,144
- Come on, what do you say?

1342
01:27:33,452 --> 01:27:35,540
- All right, let's get back to work.

1343
01:27:36,530 --> 01:27:38,140
Back to work, you corn dodgers.

1344
01:27:39,277 --> 01:27:40,110
- Run!

1345
01:27:41,974 --> 01:27:42,807
Run, go!

1346
01:27:55,922 --> 01:27:56,860
- I got your boy, general.

1347
01:27:59,350 --> 01:28:01,710
- Hold your fire, men, hold your fire.

1348
01:28:18,750 --> 01:28:20,643
- [Adult Jed] We'd heard rumors

1349
01:28:20,643 --> 01:28:23,130
that 10 miles from Fort
Resolve, there was some freed

1350
01:28:23,130 --> 01:28:24,930
slaves who would help us cross over

1351
01:28:24,930 --> 01:28:26,170
to the union line.

- Get him.

1363
01:29:34,350 --> 01:29:35,183
- They got him.

1364
01:29:40,940 --> 01:29:45,400
- Gentlemen, what we have here

1365
01:29:45,400 --> 01:29:46,680
is Kirk Cooper.

1366
01:29:48,720 --> 01:29:49,640
Nice looking boy.

1367
01:29:51,330 --> 01:29:53,280
This is what he did to his former slave

1368
01:29:54,199 --> 01:29:56,470
when Jed was just six years old.

1369
01:29:56,470 --> 01:30:00,280
A brand so that no matter where he went

1370
01:30:00,280 --> 01:30:01,670
he's never be free.

1371
01:30:05,880 --> 01:30:08,630
Who wants to give this boy
a taste of his own medicine?

1372
01:30:11,020 --> 01:30:12,920
No one wants justice tonight except me?

1373
01:30:12,920 --> 01:30:15,580
- Casey, you're drunk, go get some sleep.

1374
01:30:23,720 --> 01:30:27,130
- I'm giving you a chance to
do what's right by this boy.

1375
01:30:29,350 --> 01:30:32,080
I gotta go get rid of some
of this whiskey that's in me.

1376
01:30:33,740 --> 01:30:36,750
When I get back, I'll do
it myself if you can't.

1377
01:30:55,730 --> 01:30:59,430
- Please, Jed, please let me live.

1378
01:30:59,430 --> 01:31:00,263
- Why?

1379
01:31:01,960 --> 01:31:03,110
- Things are different.

1380
01:31:05,364 --> 01:31:07,180
You can't blame me for what happened.

1381
01:31:09,610 --> 01:31:12,110
I never knew my daddy was
gonna whip Noah so hard.

1382
01:31:14,048 --> 01:31:14,881
I'm sorry.

1383
01:31:16,350 --> 01:31:17,640
Jed, please, no.

1384
01:31:20,430 --> 01:31:21,810
- Die, rebel, die!

1385
01:31:22,760 --> 01:31:24,927
(gunfire)

1386
01:31:26,750 --> 01:31:28,120
Run before Casey gets back.

1387
01:31:40,937 --> 01:31:43,770
(whimsical music)

1388
01:31:47,440 --> 01:31:48,430
- Sergeant McGaw!

1389
01:31:50,910 --> 01:31:52,959
- Says you could be shot
for sleeping on duty.

1390
01:31:52,959 --> 01:31:53,792
- Well, we ought to
turn him in, boys, huh?

1391
01:31:55,156 --> 01:31:56,872
(laughing)

1392
01:31:56,872 --> 01:31:57,705
- Hey, fellas, you're just in time,

1393
01:31:57,705 --> 01:31:59,357
we've been given a furlough back

1394
01:31:59,357 --> 01:32:00,873
to Pittsburgh for Christmas.

1395
01:32:00,873 --> 01:32:03,123
(cheering)

1396
01:32:20,180 --> 01:32:21,690
- [Adult Jed] We spent that Fall camped

1397
01:32:21,690 --> 01:32:24,140
about 30 miles from Fort Resolve, waiting

1398
01:32:24,140 --> 01:32:26,640
for replacements so we
could return to Pittsburgh.

1399
01:32:29,530 --> 01:32:31,960
The boys from my company
learned a new game

1400
01:32:31,960 --> 01:32:33,510
with a ball and wooden stick.

1401
01:32:42,530 --> 01:32:45,300
Jack liked to play too, but
he made up his own rules.

1402
01:33:05,835 --> 01:33:07,574
- Hey, what are you guys planning?

1403
01:33:07,574 --> 01:33:08,577
- Ned, give us a minute.

1404
01:33:08,577 --> 01:33:09,410
- Are you sure, because that--

1405
01:33:09,410 --> 01:33:10,384
- Quartermaster.

1406
01:33:10,384 --> 01:33:11,730
- Yes, sir.

1407
01:33:11,730 --> 01:33:14,220
- Jed, Casey informs me
they took you through

1408
01:33:14,220 --> 01:33:15,440
a tunnel underneath the fort.

1409
01:33:15,440 --> 01:33:17,100
Do you remember?

1410
01:33:17,100 --> 01:33:21,150
- When they had me in the
tunnel, I saw this gunpowder.

1411
01:33:21,150 --> 01:33:22,710
- Jed, that gunpowder has blown

1412
01:33:22,710 --> 01:33:24,180
our railroads, bridges, and men.

1413
01:33:24,180 --> 01:33:26,800
- One well placed charge and
the whole fort will blow.

1414
01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:31,950
- When I was in the tunnel, I saw a hole.

1415
01:33:36,930 --> 01:33:39,790
That could have led out to an entrance.

1416
01:33:39,790 --> 01:33:41,640
- Jed, do you think you could find it?

1417
01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:45,400
- Master Cooper is in there.

1418
01:33:45,400 --> 01:33:47,276
- We get them, Jed, or they get us,

1419
01:33:47,276 --> 01:33:49,006
it's as simple as that.

1420
01:33:49,006 --> 01:33:51,600
- No, I won't do it.

1421
01:33:51,600 --> 01:33:53,950
- Are you here to fight
a war or play baseball?

1422
01:33:58,777 --> 01:33:59,860
- Why don't I show you where the hole is

1423
01:33:59,860 --> 01:34:00,700
and you go in?

1424
01:34:01,980 --> 01:34:03,220
- Think about Shadow.

1425
01:34:13,940 --> 01:34:15,050
- [Adult Jed] During the short time

1426
01:34:15,050 --> 01:34:17,620
we had in Pittsburgh,
the wives and mothers

1427
01:34:17,620 --> 01:34:20,250
of our boys held a ball to raise money

1428
01:34:20,250 --> 01:34:22,220
for things like butter and sugar we hadn't

1429
01:34:22,220 --> 01:34:24,770
seen in the field for months.

1430
01:34:24,770 --> 01:34:26,340
I kept my promise to Jesse

1431
01:34:26,340 --> 01:34:28,300
that I'd tell his mom what kind of soldier

1432
01:34:28,300 --> 01:34:30,380
her son was when he died.

1433
01:34:30,380 --> 01:34:34,120
She was so proud of the
sacrifice Jesse for all of us.

1434
01:34:46,300 --> 01:34:47,980
- Attention, please.

1435
01:34:49,130 --> 01:34:52,210
- Jed, come on up to the stage
and bring Dog Jack with you.

1436
01:34:53,101 --> 01:34:55,351
(applause)

1437
01:34:56,620 --> 01:34:58,920
- On numerous occasions Jed and Dog Jack

1438
01:34:58,920 --> 01:35:01,420
have intervened on our
behalf against our enemies.

1439
01:35:02,920 --> 01:35:04,680
- [Adult Jed] The boys
returned most of the money

1440
01:35:04,680 --> 01:35:06,910
to the money to the widows, but saved

1441
01:35:06,910 --> 01:35:09,660
some and bought a beautiful
silver collar for Dog Jack.

1442
01:35:10,804 --> 01:35:13,054
(applause)

1443
01:35:14,397 --> 01:35:18,000
- On behalf of the 102
regiment, Jed, we salute you.

1444
01:35:19,680 --> 01:35:22,051
- [All] Huzzah, huzzah, huzzah!

1445
01:35:22,051 --> 01:35:23,968
Huzzah, huzzah, huzzah!

1446
01:35:25,404 --> 01:35:27,604
- Would you like to
have this dance with me?

1447
01:35:36,820 --> 01:35:40,320
(slow instrumental music)

1448
01:35:57,620 --> 01:35:59,023
- [Adult Jed] The men
in my company were able

1449
01:35:59,023 --> 01:36:02,080
to find a little joy in
the festivities that night.

1450
01:36:03,400 --> 01:36:06,920
But I was burdened with
a job I had yet to do.

1451
01:36:11,030 --> 01:36:14,110
What price does a man pay for freedom,

1452
01:36:14,110 --> 01:36:15,510
the taking of a life.

1453
01:36:17,320 --> 01:36:20,780
- All these girls want
to dance with you, Jed.

1454
01:36:20,780 --> 01:36:21,880
Which one do you want?

1455
01:36:25,238 --> 01:36:27,071
- That's okay, thanks.

1456
01:36:29,280 --> 01:36:32,310
- [Adult Jed] Master Cooper,
my enemy, but the man

1457
01:36:32,310 --> 01:36:34,740
had taken up for me all my life.

1458
01:36:35,640 --> 01:36:38,750
If anyone tells you war
is a clear cut thing,

1459
01:36:38,750 --> 01:36:40,340
don't believe them.

1460
01:36:44,800 --> 01:36:49,010
- Ladies and gentlemen,
I'm sorry to announce

1461
01:36:49,010 --> 01:36:52,330
we won't be spending
Christmas with you as planned.

1462
01:36:52,330 --> 01:36:54,420
It will be necessary to leave tomorrow

1463
01:36:54,420 --> 01:36:56,330
to reinforce Union troops who are laying

1464
01:36:56,330 --> 01:36:59,460
siege to Fort Resolve so that
we can eventually take it.

01:37:27,830 --> 01:37:29,170
- Thank you, lord, for a good wife

1470
01:37:29,170 --> 01:37:31,200
and a healthy and beautiful baby daughter.

1471
01:37:31,200 --> 01:37:32,650
- I want to tell the
lord that I'm impressed

1472
01:37:32,650 --> 01:37:34,340
that Jed let Kirk go free.

1473
01:37:35,870 --> 01:37:38,470
- My heart is heavy tonight, brothers.

1474
01:37:38,470 --> 01:37:39,970
We've been ordered to stage an attack

1475
01:37:39,970 --> 01:37:44,270
against Fort Resolve and
try to take it at all cost.

1476
01:37:44,270 --> 01:37:46,580
It will be the toughest battle of the war.

1477
01:37:46,580 --> 01:37:47,950
Many of us will go to that place

1478
01:37:47,950 --> 01:37:50,410
where men's souls are
sorted out for eternity.

1479
01:37:51,270 --> 01:37:53,919
Some of you came into this
war no more than boys,

1480
01:37:53,919 --> 01:37:57,280
forced to become men overnight.

1481
01:37:57,280 --> 01:37:59,770
But if you died in my arms tomorrow,

1482
01:37:59,770 --> 01:38:02,520
would you know the state of your souls?

1483
01:38:02,520 --> 01:38:04,350
What I would never have
asked of you at the beginning

1484
01:38:04,350 --> 01:38:07,730
of this war, I beg you to
do now with all my heart.

1485
01:38:07,730 --> 01:38:09,640
To bow your heads with me and ask Christ

1486
01:38:09,640 --> 01:38:13,710
to cleanse you of your sins
and to come into your hearts.

1487
01:38:23,410 --> 01:38:26,060
- I tried to ask God into my heart,

1488
01:38:26,060 --> 01:38:29,360
but I would have to forgive
Master Cooper, wouldn't I?

1489
01:38:29,360 --> 01:38:30,193
- Yes.

1490
01:38:32,640 --> 01:38:34,620
- It's like a deal with God, isn't it?

1491
01:38:37,050 --> 01:38:38,300
It's not a fair deal.

1492
01:38:39,870 --> 01:38:43,020
How can I forgive him,
he killed my father.

1493
01:38:43,020 --> 01:38:44,270
- He is your father, Jed.

1494
01:38:47,080 --> 01:38:49,280
- I dreamt about mama
and Shadow last night.

1495
01:38:50,410 --> 01:38:52,850
They're in Master Cooper's garden, growing

1496
01:38:52,850 --> 01:38:53,760
their own food.

1497
01:38:56,010 --> 01:38:58,050
I just can't forget that dream.

1498
01:39:13,420 --> 01:39:14,253
Help me.

1499
01:39:17,519 --> 01:39:18,352
Please.

(flicks match)

1506
01:41:28,367 --> 01:41:31,204
(explosion)

1507
01:41:31,204 --> 01:41:33,537
(screaming)

1508
01:41:38,313 --> 01:41:40,480
(gunfire)

1509
01:41:45,724 --> 01:41:48,165
- [Jed] Jack, come back.

1510
01:41:48,165 --> 01:41:48,998
Jack!

1511
01:41:53,666 --> 01:41:54,499
Jack!

1512
01:42:10,521 --> 01:42:11,354
Jack!

1513
01:42:36,850 --> 01:42:38,240
Drop your gun.

1514
01:42:45,300 --> 01:42:47,500
- How dare you speak to me like that.

1515
01:42:51,160 --> 01:42:56,160
Son, give your daddy some water, Jed.

1516
01:43:16,810 --> 01:43:19,260
- General, throw your
weapon down or we'll shoot.

1517
01:43:21,260 --> 01:43:23,570
- Daddy, put down your gun.

1518
01:43:26,597 --> 01:43:27,570
- He won't shoot.

1519
01:43:28,610 --> 01:43:29,610
- [Reverend] I will.

1520
01:43:33,800 --> 01:43:36,020
- Stay away, I want to talk to my boy.

1521
01:43:37,050 --> 01:43:40,410
- Put your guns down, I'm
just giving him some water.

1522
01:43:42,180 --> 01:43:43,230
- Lower your weapons.

1523
01:43:59,628 --> 01:44:02,510
- I don't know whether you
can believe this or not,

1524
01:44:02,510 --> 01:44:05,300
but it was always you I wanted next to

1525
01:44:05,300 --> 01:44:06,720
me fighting them Yankees.

1526
01:44:09,402 --> 01:44:11,894
Not Kirk.

1527
01:44:11,894 --> 01:44:13,638
Tell your men.

1528
01:44:13,638 --> 01:44:14,870
- [Stewart] Jed, move out of the way.

1529
01:44:15,750 --> 01:44:17,230
- They can do whatever
they to with me now.

1530
01:44:17,230 --> 01:44:19,375
- [Stewart] He's gonna kill the boy.

1531
01:44:19,375 --> 01:44:20,808
- Don't shoot.

1532
01:44:20,808 --> 01:44:22,975
(gunfire)

1533
01:44:30,558 --> 01:44:31,391
- No, no!

1534
01:45:06,835 --> 01:45:08,390
- Are you sure you
won't come with us, Jed?

1535
01:45:08,390 --> 01:45:10,130
It'll take a few hundred years for people

1536
01:45:10,130 --> 01:45:11,570
to start to treat you right, some will

1537
01:45:11,570 --> 01:45:13,390
even try to hurt you.

1538
01:45:13,390 --> 01:45:15,870
- I'm going with him, sir,
make sure that doesn't happen.

1539
01:45:18,006 --> 01:45:21,149
- You take this, it's gonna
be rough down there, Jed.

1540
01:45:21,149 --> 01:45:22,170
You might need to use it.

1541
01:45:22,170 --> 01:45:23,810
- I'll be all right.

1542
01:45:23,810 --> 01:45:25,280
- You take care, kid.

1543
01:45:30,090 --> 01:45:31,220
- Thanks for letting me and Jack

1544
01:45:31,220 --> 01:45:34,869
be a part of the 102nd,
I'll never forget you.

1545
01:45:34,869 --> 01:45:37,119
(cheering)

1546
01:45:40,539 --> 01:45:42,380
- And you'll come and
visit us, Jed, right?

1547
01:45:42,380 --> 01:45:44,470
- I promise, we'll all
come back to Pittsburgh

1548
01:45:44,470 --> 01:45:46,440
someday and visit you all.

1549
01:45:46,440 --> 01:45:49,374
Reverend Stewart, I just want to tell you,

1550
01:45:49,374 --> 01:45:53,207
I did that deal with God
we was talking about.

1551
01:45:59,655 --> 01:46:02,572
(train horn blows)

1552
01:46:05,621 --> 01:46:07,704
- [Conductor] All aboard!

1553
01:46:39,320 --> 01:46:42,750
- [Adult Jed] A month
later and the war was over.

1554
01:46:42,750 --> 01:46:44,060
Jack and I didn't want to fight

1555
01:46:44,060 --> 01:46:46,340
no more wars after that.

1556
01:46:46,340 --> 01:46:48,800
But I guess we had to fight in that one.

1557
01:46:48,800 --> 01:46:50,980
Kirk and I were deeded some land from

1558
01:46:50,980 --> 01:46:52,270
the former Cooper estate.

1559
01:46:53,570 --> 01:46:57,580
Once bitter enemies, we now
work side by side as friends.

1560
01:46:58,490 --> 01:47:00,610
I wish my father had been around to see us

1561
01:47:00,610 --> 01:47:02,240
build a new life together.

1562
01:47:04,640 --> 01:47:06,800
No crucible ever tests the human heart

1563
01:47:06,800 --> 01:47:07,670
as does a war.

1564
01:47:08,600 --> 01:47:11,110
I will never forget those walls hallowed

1565
01:47:11,110 --> 01:47:12,970
by the sufferings of our people.

1566
01:47:12,970 --> 01:47:15,510
Every inch, producing a painful memory.

1567
01:47:17,540 --> 01:47:19,871
But there was no more
reason to keep on hating,

1568
01:47:19,871 --> 01:47:22,900
after all, I made a deal with God

1569
01:47:22,900 --> 01:47:26,340
to love my enemies and
turn my life over to him.

1570
01:47:29,730 --> 01:47:32,620
My dear grandchildren,
after you've listened

1571
01:47:32,620 --> 01:47:35,789
to this account, I believe
you will agree with me

1572
01:47:35,789 --> 01:47:37,900
that there are few stories that stir

1573
01:47:37,900 --> 01:47:41,550
the human heart as does
the story of Dog Jack.

1574
01:47:42,520 --> 01:47:44,860
I ask you to remember our story and pass

1575
01:47:44,860 --> 01:47:47,550
it on to your children and grandchildren.

1576
01:47:48,480 --> 01:47:50,580
The Lord gave that dog a heart

1577
01:47:50,580 --> 01:47:52,540
that didn't care about a person's age

1578
01:47:52,540 --> 01:47:54,180
or station in life.

1579
01:47:54,180 --> 01:47:58,380
Blind to the color of a
man's uniform or his skin.

1580
01:47:58,380 --> 01:48:01,300
Ain't too many people
like that, but I wanted

1581
01:48:01,300 --> 01:48:06,050
to be one of them, I
wanted to be like Dog Jack.
