Heeyah! Heeyah!

NARRATOR: Tales of Wells Fargo.

He says this country...

I understand that much.

He says it's big.

Yeah, it's more than big, se�or.

It's magnifico.

Si. Si, magnifico.

It takes a lot of courage
to leave your home,

come to a strange country.

Don't you think you
ought to teach him

a little more of the language,

before you leave him on his own?

Se�or Hardie, we are...

Basques from the Pyrenees.

They are the best shepherds

in the world.

Sheep are sheep

and mountains are mountains.

My brother Manuel,

he knows that.

In time, he will
learn the language.

Not from the sheep, he won't.

He says America is
the land of opportunity.

Here, every man is equal.

A man can breathe.

He can even grow rich.

Well, it's big, all right.

There's plenty of
room for growing.

There's no doubt about that.

Se�or Hardie,

where do you travel
for the Wells Fargo?

The Daly City.

But that is where I go to.

Oh, and Manuel?

Manuel?

He stops at Sentinel,

the American Wool Company

has a station there too.

I have been with
them five years.

It is on my word

that they hire Manuel.

You think a great
deal of him, don't you?

Well, he is my brother.

What a country, America.

We travel in the same coach,

you and I.

You for gold,

me for sheep.

What a country.

Hmm. The only difference being

that you've got all
summer to herd your sheep.

If I don't get that gold back

to San Francisco in three days,

I'm gonna have a
lot of answering to do.

Si.

Sleep.

Sleep.

Sleep.

Sleep.

Bueno.

JIM: They liked
each other, those two.

What's more important,
they like themselves.

And that is important when
a man has no company

but a sheep and a dog.

I'd heard of more
than one sheep herder

that went out of his
mind from loneliness.

I told Pablo that
Manuel would be all right.

I was coming back
through Sentinel in two days,

and I told him I'd check to see

that his brother got
off to a good start.

It seemed to make
him feel better.

I didn't have the time,

but somehow I'd take it.

Heeyah.

Juanito.

Amiguito.

Amiguito,

ven.

Sleep.

Sleep.

Sleep.

Sleep.

Juanito.

Juanito, ven.

Ven, Juanito.

She's in there.

Pray, mister. Pray hard.

Hey.

It's gonna be legal like.

We're gonna take
him back to town.

You've got a kind of strange
sense of justice, ain't you, Bill?

Hauling this scumbag to town
ain't worth the time nor trouble.

He'll get what's coming to him.

Don't you worry none about that.

I'll be happy to
furnish the rope.

We're taking him back to town.

If he's hurt that child,

ain't nobody gonna
stop at hanging.

Here. Take Abby to her ma.

Somebody get a rope.

The rest of you best get
on about your business.

You ain't sheriff
yet, John Egan.

I'm hoping to be.
Not without them.

Let's get him into jail.

Don't do that again, Pete.

What call you got
telling us what to do?

I'm the sheriff here.

Acting sheriff.

Just acting sheriff.

You ain't been elected yet.

And you ain't likely to be.

That's not like you, Ralph.

You was of the first
ones to offer my name

when folks around
here wanted a sheriff.

I can change my mind.

And so can those
people out there.

Standing up for a man
when there's a question

about his being
guilty is one thing,

but we caught this
one dead to rights.

Now, you think about that, Bill.

Come on, Pete.

You know, I almost
feel sorry for you.

You should have
taken up horse stealing,

you'd have had a better chance.

I'll only be a
little while, Frank.

I wanna inquire
about a friend of mine.

We ain't got much time, Jim.

You boys got time for one drink.

You don't have
to say that twice.

Are you in charge here?

That's right.

What can I do for you?

I wanted to check
on a friend of mine.

Working for us?

Yes, he's a sheep herder

named Manuel.

You say you're a friend of his?

Not of longstanding.

I met him on the stage
the day he came in.

He's a nice fellow.

MAN: Well, you ought
to be more choosy

about who you talk to, mister.

What's that supposed to mean?

I never did hold with
hiring him in the first place.

A man can't speak American's

got to have something wrong,

you can bet your life on that.

And I wonder how
you'd make out in Spain.

Do you speak Spanish?

No, and I don't want to.

Now, you look like
a nice clean-cut fella.

Why don't you stay out of this?

And why don't you
leave that up to me?

Where is he?

Your friend is in
trouble, mister.

They've got him
over to the jail now.

But he won't be there long.

Who are you? Jim Hardie.

I'm with Wells Fargo.

We're carrying a
special shipment

through to San Francisco.

Se�or Hardie.

What's he done?

Plenty.

You know him?

Look, I'm getting
tired of this run-around.

If this man has broken the
law, then tell me about it.

Maybe we can get
it straightened out.

Mister, I don't know
how to put a name to it.

Kidnapping maybe.

A little girl.

You got any proof?

We caught him with the girl.

BILL: You savvy
what he's saying?

No.

But I'm a pretty good judge
of what's in a man's eyes.

Folks around here have
to go by what a man does.

Regardless of what he's done,
he's got a right to be heard.

And that mob out there
is not about to listen.

Mr. Hardie, what
am I supposed to do?

I've seen it before. Some
bloodthirsty crackpot

will stand up and buy drinks

for the house.

They'll talk.

They'll build up
their courage to hate.

Then they'll come
breaking in here

and drag that poor devil out.

And he won't even be able
to understand the curses

when they haul him off to Hades.

I'll say it again.

What do you want me to do?

You can start by
finding somebody

who can understand
what he's trying to say.

There ain't nobody, not
unless you go to Daly City.

JIM: Have you
talked to the little girl?

She can't talk. She's
still unconscious.

Say, what's eating at you?

He's a human being

and he's traveled
halfway around the world

because he believed in an idea.

He believed that in this country

he'd be as good as
the man next to him.

He has a right to
be heard under law.

Which will hang him.

It'll hang him if he's guilty,

but not with that mob out there

as the judge and the jury.

I will do my best to
keep that from happening.

And I don't think your
best is good enough.

Mister, you've done
an awful lot of talking

and now you're gonna
listen to me for a change.

I helped start this town.

I call every man and woman
out there by their first name.

They're good people.

They got some rights too,

and among is the right
to protect their young'uns.

If they take him over my say-so

he'll be dying just a little bit

ahead of his time.

That's what I mean when I said

I don't think your
best is good enough.

I'll be back.

Come on, Ralph.

The next one's on you.

Fill 'em up. None for me.

Thanks just the same,
but I got things to do.

Well, we got a thing
or two to do ourselves.

You just stick around, mister,

and you're gonna
see a lot of fun.

Well, you said one drink.

I sure been nursing it.

Let's get going.
Never mind that.

You've got to go
ride back to Daly City.

But Jim, we're supposed
to be in Frisco tomorrow.

This is more important.

You better lay off, Pete.

This ain't no picnic.

But when are we
gonna get started?

I'm just giving
Bill Egan a chance

to make up his mind.

You ain't gonna wait
for no circuit judge,

are you?

Well, are you?

You know better than that.

But when he hangs, I want
Bill Egan's hands on that rope.

What's going on in there?
What are they talking about?

There's a man in jail.
They're gonna lynch him.

I haven't got time
to explain now

but I want you to
ride back to Daly City.

Go to the American Wool Company,

there's a man that works for 'em

named Pablo
Ortiz, bring him here.

But the shipment. The home
office will fire you for that.

They'll have to wait.

Go to the livery stable
and get your horse.

Hurry.

What do you think you're
doing? What you would be doing

if you had the stomach for it.

You ain't no deputy,
you got no right.

What are you?
I'm acting sheriff.

Then act like one.

You better get a gun
down out of that rack,

because I got a feeling
you're gonna need it.

I don't need no gun.

I can talk those people around.

Then you better get
over to the saloon

and start talking.
All right, I will.

But mister, even with that,

if they've made up their minds,

you don't stand a chance.

If I were you, I wouldn't
run for sheriff, Mr. Egan.

Because I don't think you
would make a very good one.

Manuel.

Pablo,

Pablo here.

Huh?

Gracias, Se�or Hardie.

Bill here says there's a
man aiming to stop us.

He's got a shotgun, Bill says.

Well, it won't be the first time

I look down the barrel of a gun.

What happens if we wait?

Well, I'll tell you.

Some circuit judge
with a fancy coat

and a clean collar will
come in here and say,

two years in the
territorial prison.

What do you do with a
sheepdog when he goes bad?

You kill him.

You don't pen him
up for two years

and then say, "All
right, go ahead.

You're all right now."

What do you think, Bill?

I said, what do you think, Bill?

I think that a man
that does what he did

deserves to hang.

All I was holding out for
was to say it was done legal.

And what if the law won't do it?

Then the law is wrong.

Dead wrong.

Now you're talking like
you got some sense.

Come on, let's go
get him. Hold on.

Now, it's the Spaniard
we're gonna hang.

No use anybody going with him.

You all stay here.

I'll go have me a talk with this

Wells Fargo man.

Tell him we changed
our minds, Ralph.

Tell him it'll be just
as good as a trial.

Well, you might
make a good sheriff

after all, Bill.

For a while there,

I didn't think you had the guts.

That's far enough, mister.

I'm alone. I wanna talk to you.

Seems to me like you're
taking the wrong side.

I don't stand in front of no man

like a dog, mister, talk to me.

I'll talk to you.

You go back over in that saloon.

Tell those men
in there if they do

what they've got in their mind,

they'll never be able
to look each other

squarely in the face again.

You won't give him up?

You've had your say and
you've had your chance.

I'll be back,

but I won't be alone.

And I'll be here.

Hey, Ralph, two men just went in

to the Sheriff's Office.

What has he done?

They say he stole a little girl.

He says she was sick and lost.

He tried to feed her,

and was going to take her home.

He is innocent.

Are you with us, Frank?

You stay here with Manuel.

I'll holler if I need you.

Miss Turner?

Yes?

I'm Jim Hardie from Wells Fargo.

Come in.

How's Abby?

She's all right now.

Just tired, that's all.

I suppose you've heard

what's going on in town.

I heard.

You can save that man's life.

Save him?

The man who stole my own child?

Do you know what I went through?

Have you got any idea
what I went through?

That mob is gonna hang him.

That's murder.

You don't wanna
be a part of that.

He kept my child

for a day and a night.

You should have seen her
when they brought her back.

No. He didn't take your child.

Didn't take her?

They found Abby in his wagon

and you mean to tell
me he didn't take her?

He had her in a wagon,
bringing her home

when they rode down on him.

I don't believe you.

There isn't much
time, Mrs. Turner.

I can hold that
crowd for a little while

but only for a while.

And if it hadn't
been for that man,

your daughter would
still be out in those hills.

He saved her life.
Now she can save his.

You mean you want me to
bring her over to face him?

No, to save him.

She's exhausted.

And if it hadn't
have been for him,

she'd be dead.

Come on. Let's get him.

Hey, Come on. Let's go.

Give him to us.

You best give
him up, Mr. Hardie.

There's no changing things.

I didn't expect to see you here.

I thought you'd be
home under your bed.

He didn't steal that girl.

She was lost.

On your say-so?

What are we waiting for?

Come on, let's get him.

Now, you listen
to me, all of you.

If one of you had
found that girl,

you could explain it,

but because you
can't understand him,

you figure he's guilty.

We seen him...
Pete and Bill and me.

And we didn't come
here for no speeches.

And I don't aim to give one.

You can't shoot us all.

No. I can't stop you.

But somebody's got to be first,

then there'll be a second.

And I'm telling you now,

the man is innocent.

Well, telling ain't proving.

I'll prove it.

You ain't got the
nerve to pull that trigger.

If he gets me, tear him apart.

Now, I'm gonna bring Manuel out.

But don't get any
ideas because I'll kill

the next man that comes forward.

Here comes your proof now.

Pablo,

bring him out.

Maybe you could
make it up to this man.

I don't know how,
but I hope you'll try.

I do know one thing:

he wants to believe in you.

JIM: I went down to
the telegraph office

to wire Wells Fargo

that their shipment

would be a little late.
