1
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 1: At the Galla Wow, Fort Loamie, Fort Laramie, starring Raymond

2
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,759
Burr as Captain lee Quins, especially transcribed tales of the

3
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,479
dark and tragic ground of the wild frontier, the saga

4
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:01,240
of fighting.

5
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 2: Men who rode the rim of Empire, and the dramatic

6
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:23,719
story of lee Quin's captain of cavalry.

7
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 3: You see that month, I blew the top of his

8
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:29,079
head clean.

9
00:01:28,879 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 4: Off beginning were right at.

10
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,519
Speaker 5: The eyebrows, slashed him just as clean. You figure that

11
00:01:35,719 --> 00:01:36,120
killed him?

12
00:01:36,159 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 6: Then?

13
00:01:36,879 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 5: Oh, sure he's dead, and.

14
00:01:39,359 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 7: I declare that makes a fair morning shooting Harrison. Let

15
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,799
me see now you killed Crazy Horse, black Leg and

16
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,439
American Horse just since I've been watching.

17
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 5: You ain't forgetting roman nose. You shoot him too? Oh yeah,

18
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,040
the last one he was roman nose.

19
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 4: But ain't that peculiar.

20
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 8: I'd have swore he was killed at the room.

21
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 5: You're too bad, No, I just now killed it. He

22
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,439
You think maybe they'll give me a stripe for that month?

23
00:02:07,599 --> 00:02:08,439
Speaker 8: Oh I don't know.

24
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,439
Speaker 9: Boys, Then he's been dead that long.

25
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 8: They might a lot of.

26
00:02:11,199 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 5: Figure it's worth no strive. Yeah, you ain't practicing much, monk.

27
00:02:16,599 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 7: Or didn't you know I was killed while back acrosst

28
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,199
I took the time to reload my springfield.

29
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:24,039
Speaker 5: Now I'll get me another.

30
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 4: Who'd you get, boy?

31
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 5: I missed the target.

32
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 4: I guess I've been lying on my belly too long.

33
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:41,159
Speaker 5: Oh hey, it happens, don't it, Monk?

34
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 4: What happened?

35
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 3: Men get themselves killed on account of having to stop

36
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,199
and reload after every single shot.

37
00:02:49,719 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 4: Sure it happens.

38
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,039
Speaker 3: My daddy used the springfield just like this, and in

39
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:55,520
the War between the States.

40
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 5: Your daddy used one in the Civil War. Boy, Now

41
00:02:58,879 --> 00:03:01,599
don't you start that up again. We both used them,

42
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,360
Yankees and rebels alike.

43
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,439
Speaker 7: Now, if you're saying this time we had a better

44
00:03:06,439 --> 00:03:09,840
firearm than the Indians, you're just right, Harrison, You are

45
00:03:10,199 --> 00:03:10,759
just right.

46
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,319
Speaker 5: You tried them, Spencer's monk.

47
00:03:13,599 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 4: Sure we had them in the war.

48
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 5: The load right behind the boar.

49
00:03:18,159 --> 00:03:21,879
Speaker 7: Their shapes are all right, shorter, you know, make better carrying

50
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:22,520
for a trooper.

51
00:03:23,199 --> 00:03:24,199
Speaker 8: But they ain't the answer.

52
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,439
Speaker 10: I'm sure myre to try one, Captain.

53
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 7: Quince him and them other officers they got the answer, boy,

54
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:33,719
Henry rifles.

55
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, them repeaters.

56
00:03:36,199 --> 00:03:39,039
Speaker 7: You ever ask yourself any questions, boy, there'd be a

57
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:39,840
good one for you.

58
00:03:40,719 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 11: How's that?

59
00:03:42,039 --> 00:03:42,439
Speaker 4: How come.

60
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,199
Speaker 7: The only ones that's got them new Henry rifles is

61
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,879
some of the officers and most of the Indians. I

62
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:54,240
don't ask myself questions like that, month make mighty interesting answers.

63
00:03:54,439 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 4: Questions like them.

64
00:03:55,479 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 3: Monk, you better hold your tongue. We ain't exactly a long.

65
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 4: Oh boy, you ain't never alone in the army.

66
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 12: So don't stop talking in my account. Man, I'm very

67
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:08,840
interested in what you're saying.

68
00:04:09,159 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 5: You must be seeing you writing most of it down?

69
00:04:12,439 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 12: Oh, just making a few notes. Go on about the rifles.

70
00:04:17,519 --> 00:04:18,439
What's he talking about?

71
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,759
Speaker 5: You suppose you got some business here, mister?

72
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 12: I have papers from Major Doggett giving me permission to

73
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:26,399
move freely about the post.

74
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 9: When I ain't that nice of the Major sending us

75
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,639
a moving target to practice on you some kind of

76
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,879
spy coming around here in mufty, sneaking around a rifle

77
00:04:36,959 --> 00:04:38,800
but writing down everything we say.

78
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 12: I'm a correspondent for the New York Star. That's a newspaper.

79
00:04:44,199 --> 00:04:45,519
Speaker 7: You want to buy a paper, Harrison?

80
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 5: Who'd I get to read it to me?

81
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:51,079
Speaker 4: All right?

82
00:04:51,199 --> 00:04:54,639
Speaker 12: Man, maybe you can point out Captain Quinch to me.

83
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,519
Speaker 9: Then you're facing that ray, Harrison, you point him out?

84
00:04:59,519 --> 00:05:02,199
Speaker 5: He was a at the head of the line. Now,

85
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:03,360
I ain't saying he's there.

86
00:05:03,439 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 12: Now, I think I can find him. He would be

87
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,959
the one carrying the Henry rifle, wouldn't.

88
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 4: He, Harrison.

89
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 7: I think I'm gonna pass that suggestion on to the Major.

90
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,839
I think we do a site better shooting a living target,

91
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:35,720
especially if he carried a notebook with him.

92
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 4: Yes, Captain Quince, that's right.

93
00:05:44,319 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 12: You're sure you are, Captain Quince.

94
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:49,759
Speaker 4: Something on your mind, mister.

95
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,720
Speaker 12: I'll just take your word for it. I don't think

96
00:05:53,759 --> 00:06:01,800
I can walk anymore. Oh. My name is Harkness, David Hartness.

97
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,480
I'm a correspondent from the New York Star. That is

98
00:06:06,519 --> 00:06:07,319
a newspaper.

99
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 4: Yes, I know. Did you walk out from New York,

100
00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:13,319
mister Harkness?

101
00:06:14,079 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 8: It feels like it.

102
00:06:16,439 --> 00:06:19,079
Speaker 12: I think I have just been initiated into the army,

103
00:06:19,199 --> 00:06:23,759
captain initiated. The Major told me I would find you

104
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,079
on the firing range. I walked there. A sergeant said

105
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,079
you might be at the cavalry stables. I walked there.

106
00:06:31,319 --> 00:06:34,639
From there, I walked to the saddlery on someone's advice,

107
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,600
then to the corral and the post office, and finally

108
00:06:38,639 --> 00:06:45,720
here to Old What is it old old bedlam. I

109
00:06:45,759 --> 00:06:48,040
think maybe your men wanted to be sure I had

110
00:06:48,079 --> 00:06:49,079
a long walk.

111
00:06:50,639 --> 00:06:52,959
Speaker 4: The man wanted to know who was listening in on

112
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:57,000
private conversations writing down what they said. I told them

113
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,199
who I was after you made your notes.

114
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 12: That's right. The major gave me a free hand on

115
00:07:05,519 --> 00:07:08,920
the post. I guess I used it a little too freely.

116
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,040
I didn't mean any harm.

117
00:07:10,879 --> 00:07:13,319
Speaker 4: Captain, men will talk for you. Once they know you

118
00:07:14,079 --> 00:07:15,199
and trust you.

119
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 12: Well, then you don't have any objection of my talking

120
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:17,959
with the men.

121
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 4: No, not if they don't.

122
00:07:23,079 --> 00:07:23,399
Speaker 8: Captain.

123
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 12: Quin's one thing I heard overheard bothers me. Can I

124
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:28,000
ask you about it?

125
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 4: Go ahead?

126
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 12: At target practice and the firing range, those men are

127
00:07:34,079 --> 00:07:38,199
still using single shot springfields.

128
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,279
Speaker 4: Them and few spencer carbines.

129
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,199
Speaker 12: Now the men say they're outmoded.

130
00:07:42,519 --> 00:07:42,879
Speaker 4: They are.

131
00:07:43,279 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 12: The men are not issued Henry rifles.

132
00:07:45,839 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 4: We don't have them tissue.

133
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:49,959
Speaker 12: But some of the officers have them.

134
00:07:50,079 --> 00:07:50,639
Speaker 8: Am I right?

135
00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 4: Some of this?

136
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,879
Speaker 12: I have one, you have one, but your men have it.

137
00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 4: Mister Harkneys. My men make thirteen dollars a month. They

138
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,839
can't afford to buy Henry rifles.

139
00:08:05,839 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 12: You mean to say you bought yours, Captain.

140
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,639
Speaker 4: Like the rest of the officers who have them at

141
00:08:10,639 --> 00:08:11,480
this suppleerss store.

142
00:08:11,639 --> 00:08:14,439
Speaker 12: Shouldn't the army equip itself with the best possible.

143
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,959
Speaker 4: Arm Of course it should. But guns cost money, mister Harkness.

144
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,240
So far we can't afford the kind of guns we need.

145
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:23,879
Speaker 12: Well now in Washington they talk of nothing but appropriations.

146
00:08:22,879 --> 00:08:23,439
Speaker 13: For the army.

147
00:08:23,439 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 4: In the West talk doesn't send us any guns.

148
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 12: Well, these Henry rifles they are to be had, I mean,

149
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:31,759
providing the Army gets the money to pay for them.

150
00:08:31,759 --> 00:08:32,840
They're not in short supply.

151
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:39,799
Speaker 4: A lot of the Indians have them, mister Harkness. I

152
00:08:39,919 --> 00:08:40,679
heard that too.

153
00:08:42,919 --> 00:08:43,879
Speaker 8: I couldn't believe it.

154
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 4: I've seen it.

155
00:08:46,799 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 8: How do the Indians get them?

156
00:08:48,279 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 12: Who in the world would sell guns the army needs

157
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:51,600
to the Indians?

158
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 4: Renegade whites, traders, kind of men who get rich in

159
00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:58,960
other men's blood.

160
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,759
Speaker 12: I am a long way from home, Captain quinc It's

161
00:09:04,799 --> 00:09:05,480
another world.

162
00:09:08,279 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 4: I've got an awful lot to learn. You never stop

163
00:09:12,279 --> 00:09:13,600
learning out here, mister.

164
00:09:14,799 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 12: Well captain, I'm here for a month. Can I learn

165
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,120
enough in that time to give me a fair picture.

166
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 4: You've got a good start. You admit you got a

167
00:09:23,519 --> 00:09:24,159
lot to learn.

168
00:09:39,799 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 8: You send for me, sir, Sit down, captain, Yeah, read this.

169
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:51,639
Speaker 4: Mm hmm.

170
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:59,759
Speaker 14: Well, I'm just assuming that the anonymous captain in mister Harkner's.

171
00:09:59,399 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 8: Story is you.

172
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:00,200
Speaker 6: You.

173
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 4: I talked to him.

174
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 14: If that's what you mean, I'd say you did quite

175
00:10:04,279 --> 00:10:08,360
a good job of talking, Captain. The men have outmoded equipment,

176
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,879
the officers by their own repeating rifles. The Indians have

177
00:10:11,919 --> 00:10:15,840
little trouble coming by Henry rivals. You want that printed

178
00:10:15,879 --> 00:10:18,960
in a large New York newspaper, do you? I emphatically

179
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,200
do not. It's the truth, of course, it's the truth.

180
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,519
That's not my point. I'd like to know your point, Ali,

181
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,639
I don't want our tempers involved in this. I'm questioning

182
00:10:26,639 --> 00:10:28,200
your judgment and I want some answers.

183
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 4: That's good. So do I You sent this Harkness looking

184
00:10:30,639 --> 00:10:31,200
for me? Right?

185
00:10:31,519 --> 00:10:31,759
Speaker 6: Yes?

186
00:10:31,919 --> 00:10:32,519
Speaker 8: I sent him.

187
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,639
Speaker 4: You know he was a correspondent for a newspaper. You

188
00:10:34,639 --> 00:10:36,159
gave him the run of the post. That means he

189
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,159
can ask questions and get answers. Right. Yes, that's right.

190
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,240
He asked me some questions. I answered him.

191
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 8: I see you did.

192
00:10:44,399 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 4: It's an army secret that we're short of equipment.

193
00:10:47,639 --> 00:10:50,159
Speaker 14: I've sent the same information onto Washington for months.

194
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:50,399
Speaker 4: Now.

195
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 8: You know that, Captain, I requested, I've.

196
00:10:52,919 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 4: Pleaded, I've bade, and nothing's happened.

197
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 8: They're a long way from the problem.

198
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 4: Lead.

199
00:10:57,799 --> 00:11:01,039
Speaker 14: The need diminishes with the miles between. This kind of

200
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,240
newspaper article can stir a public opinion.

201
00:11:04,799 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 8: Just wonder if it's wise.

202
00:11:05,919 --> 00:11:08,399
Speaker 4: If plain facts stirs him into action. I don't say

203
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:09,080
it's unwise.

204
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,080
Speaker 8: The army moves its own way.

205
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:13,679
Speaker 14: I know you don't always agree with it, Captain, but

206
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:17,200
if this article causes trouble, it's my trouble, not yours.

207
00:11:16,879 --> 00:11:19,440
Speaker 4: Then I'd say you'd better make up your mind. Major,

208
00:11:19,919 --> 00:11:22,399
how's that Harkness? If he's got your leave to be

209
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,480
here and take a square look at things, ask questions,

210
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,799
get answers. You're going to get articles like that one

211
00:11:29,799 --> 00:11:34,639
if you don't want them. Why kick him off the post?

212
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 14: Did mister Harkness tell you how the people in the

213
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:39,399
east feel about the Indians?

214
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:40,919
Speaker 4: We talked about guns?

215
00:11:41,519 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 14: As I understand him, we're the villains, Captain, the Army

216
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,279
and the Red Men are all peace loven hunters who

217
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,080
never kill or plunder or raid.

218
00:11:51,039 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 4: Is that all, Major, No.

219
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 8: That's not all Captain.

220
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,919
Speaker 14: The settlers along Fish Canyon have reported a rash of

221
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,120
small rage. Take a patrol out tomorrow morning. Bring me

222
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,720
a full report, right. I want you to take mister

223
00:12:04,799 --> 00:12:06,000
Harkness along, Captain.

224
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,759
Speaker 4: It's not my job to mind what he sees, who

225
00:12:09,759 --> 00:12:12,399
he talks to, what words he sets down.

226
00:12:13,159 --> 00:12:14,919
Speaker 14: I want him to see all he can see and

227
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,919
write all he can write. So long as it's true.

228
00:12:18,919 --> 00:12:19,679
Speaker 4: You'll tell him that.

229
00:12:19,799 --> 00:12:24,559
Speaker 14: I'll tell him, he questions, Captain, No, sir, then move out.

230
00:12:42,279 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 12: Now?

231
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,039
Speaker 4: How are you riding, mister Harkness?

232
00:12:45,879 --> 00:12:48,399
Speaker 12: If I joined the army, Captain, I put in for

233
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:49,360
the infantry.

234
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 4: The other day when you were walking, you wanted a horse.

235
00:12:55,279 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 13: I'm hard to please.

236
00:12:57,759 --> 00:12:58,399
Speaker 4: You're a human.

237
00:13:00,399 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 15: How long will we be out, Captain, depends on what

238
00:13:03,759 --> 00:13:09,440
we find and who we find. Major said, we were

239
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:14,120
going to talk to some settlers about Indian raids.

240
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 12: And we might find Indians too.

241
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, or they might find us.

242
00:13:20,799 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 6: I guess you'll never know. Do you you never know?

243
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 13: Captain?

244
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 12: Will you let me know when we're an Indian country.

245
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 4: You're in it?

246
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 6: Oh?

247
00:13:34,879 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 12: Oh, well, the settlers I should think they'd want to

248
00:13:38,879 --> 00:13:40,759
live near a fort Laramie for protection.

249
00:13:41,919 --> 00:13:44,159
Speaker 4: We'll be coming on of some settlers.

250
00:13:44,159 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 6: Soon ask them that was.

251
00:13:54,879 --> 00:13:56,399
Speaker 4: A deserted cabinal on the creek.

252
00:13:56,399 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 10: Captain, no Indian signs around?

253
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 4: What about the calendar plays, mister Sabbitts, straight ahead, sir,

254
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:08,279
besh Kenyon straight ahead? How far, mister Sabits, I'd say

255
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:12,399
about two miles, sir. Fine, mister Callender is the one

256
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:16,600
I was telling you about. I remember, mister Sabits. Oh

257
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,039
do you know, mister Harkness we met last night.

258
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 12: Lieutenant Cyberts was a big help, Captain.

259
00:14:21,919 --> 00:14:22,279
Speaker 4: That's so.

260
00:14:24,559 --> 00:14:25,919
Speaker 5: I didn't do much.

261
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,799
Speaker 12: Really, what do you mean, Lieutenant? Those diaries of yours

262
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:34,200
gave me a lot of valuable background diaries, mister Syberts.

263
00:14:34,919 --> 00:14:38,399
Speaker 11: They're not much, sir. Well, it just gives me something

264
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:38,639
to do.

265
00:14:38,759 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 5: Sometimes.

266
00:14:39,759 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 8: I'd like to.

267
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 12: Read yours sometime, Captain, i'd have to write it first.

268
00:14:46,159 --> 00:14:49,360
You don't keep any written record of your experiences out here?

269
00:14:49,919 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: No?

270
00:14:50,759 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 12: Oh, I think there'd be a lot you'd want to remember, Captain.

271
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 4: Well, there's more I want to forget. Two miles, mister Saberts,

272
00:14:57,639 --> 00:15:27,960
two miles patrol. You want to meet a settler, mister Harkness, Oh,

273
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:35,240
I sure do. Yeah, climb down then, right. Oh, it

274
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:39,039
looks quiet enough here, mister seyberts, but keep an eye alert.

275
00:15:39,159 --> 00:15:47,559
Yes it sergeant, you, sergeant, take Harrison and Monks. Circle

276
00:15:47,639 --> 00:15:50,440
back by the bar and those sheds near the wash.

277
00:15:50,799 --> 00:15:53,759
Check the area for Indian signs. Report back, yes, sir

278
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,480
Harrison you.

279
00:16:04,879 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 12: Uh, this would be mister Calendar's place.

280
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:07,679
Speaker 4: That's right.

281
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,759
Speaker 12: Can't blame me for choosing this spot. Beautiful company.

282
00:16:16,679 --> 00:16:17,759
Speaker 11: Access far as ago.

283
00:16:19,639 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 4: No need for the rifle, mister Calendar.

284
00:16:22,159 --> 00:16:24,799
Speaker 16: I'd be the judge of that. I have no use

285
00:16:24,799 --> 00:16:26,919
for the army. Say so the last time.

286
00:16:27,399 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 13: Say it again.

287
00:16:28,879 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 12: Now get off my land.

288
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:35,279
Speaker 4: I guess you haven't been raided along here, reports that

289
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:36,279
you had there?

290
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:37,799
Speaker 11: So is your excuse in it?

291
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,639
Speaker 16: Come snooping around the man's property, claiming to look for Indians.

292
00:16:41,679 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 4: Seen any Indians, mister Calendar.

293
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:48,279
Speaker 16: See nothing. You don't frighten me riding up in numbers.

294
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:50,720
I got my rights and your trestperson.

295
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 4: You don't have any trouble with the Indians.

296
00:16:54,639 --> 00:16:58,159
Speaker 16: Don't have no trouble with anyone. Say the army, that

297
00:16:58,279 --> 00:17:02,600
one out there, young one, this horse apriud, Lieutenant sibits

298
00:17:03,159 --> 00:17:06,599
the names no matter cart of here wakers so back

299
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,440
fired on him for snooping, sneaking up on a man's

300
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:09,960
own land.

301
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:11,640
Speaker 11: Hold him not to come back.

302
00:17:11,799 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 16: I know that at one more bar you wear don't

303
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:22,079
make you any more welcome. They're telling army.

304
00:17:21,599 --> 00:17:25,160
Speaker 4: Enough, mister Harkins, No, no, I haven't.

305
00:17:27,559 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 12: The army is out here to protect people like you,

306
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,200
and mister callender, what have you got against that? I

307
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,359
tell you if you had too dambit too green, hont

308
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,160
and old, there was no trouble out here till the

309
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:39,759
army came.

310
00:17:40,799 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 11: Red men are all right.

311
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:43,559
Speaker 16: You know how to deal with him.

312
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 11: You better stop him.

313
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 4: Where is that's fire enough?

314
00:17:47,519 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 6: Sergeant?

315
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:55,559
Speaker 4: You all right? Capt'n you find anything, Sergeant.

316
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,440
Speaker 17: No damage, Captain, but a lot of horses was here

317
00:17:58,759 --> 00:17:59,680
back by the corral.

318
00:18:00,039 --> 00:18:03,279
Speaker 4: The fresh Mark, Sir got a lot of neighbors, have you,

319
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,160
mister Calendar already.

320
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,599
Speaker 12: We didn't come on any settlers on our way here, Captain.

321
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,039
Speaker 4: You heard him say it, mister Harkness. Red men are

322
00:18:13,079 --> 00:18:16,000
all right, you know how to deal with them. I

323
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,759
guess maybe mister Calendar knows how.

324
00:18:19,079 --> 00:18:20,839
Speaker 12: You're getting off my property now.

325
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 4: Thanks for the help. Settler. You better eat something, mister Harkness.

326
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:45,799
Speaker 12: Oh Captain, I can't well there's too much that just

327
00:18:45,839 --> 00:18:48,559
doesn't set well in my stomach and coffee.

328
00:18:48,559 --> 00:18:53,519
Speaker 4: Then it goes down when nothing else will.

329
00:18:53,559 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 8: Thank you? Where are we camped? Still in Fish Can?

330
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,640
Speaker 4: North? End of it? We did a good job at

331
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:09,000
covering the canyon today and tomorrow we'll head back to

332
00:19:09,079 --> 00:19:11,640
Fort Laramie and report to Major Daggett.

333
00:19:13,599 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 12: Five families slaughtered? And that that's your report, isn't it?

334
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:20,319
Speaker 4: It's about it?

335
00:19:23,279 --> 00:19:24,079
Speaker 12: How do I do it?

336
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:24,640
Speaker 8: Captain?

337
00:19:25,559 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 12: How do I show what I saw today to the

338
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:28,440
people back east?

339
00:19:30,759 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 4: I I don't know your job, mister Harkins.

340
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 12: I can write it just as I found it. Maybe

341
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:46,160
it'd a jar them out of their complacency. Persecuted, redmand

342
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:50,960
peaceful hundred. Oh they're nothing but savages.

343
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,960
Speaker 4: They're the butchers, these Indians. Yes, what do you mean?

344
00:19:55,279 --> 00:19:57,480
And I'll tell you I I saw a slaughter once,

345
00:19:57,519 --> 00:20:01,839
the remains of one eighty men, women and children huddled

346
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,359
beneath the flag that was supposed to give him immunity.

347
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:05,880
Speaker 12: But they were killed anyway.

348
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,960
Speaker 4: Ridden down, slaughtered, hacked shot.

349
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 12: Indians don't put much value on human life, do they.

350
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 4: This was white men's work, mister Harkness. White men's white

351
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:18,319
army men.

352
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 12: You saw this happen.

353
00:20:22,519 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 4: Some of us were sent out after it happened to

354
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:30,599
move the dead to burial grounds. Savage is a savage,

355
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,039
mister Harkness. Color of his skins, no matter.

356
00:20:35,839 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 12: I'll try to remember that, Captain.

357
00:20:38,519 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 4: Once you see it, you don't forget.

358
00:20:44,839 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 12: What about a man like Calendar. Indians have been at

359
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,599
his place too, we think so. But he wasn't killed.

360
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:52,000
His cabin still stand.

361
00:20:52,079 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 4: Could be he trades with him, horses, green Henry rifles

362
00:20:56,359 --> 00:21:00,400
might be well if you thought he did, I have

363
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:06,039
to know he did, mister Harkness, you would, wouldn't you.

364
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,720
They're riding ahead you.

365
00:21:12,279 --> 00:21:35,880
Speaker 10: You better get some sleep, Captain Quin Indians hop on

366
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:36,279
the bluff.

367
00:21:37,799 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 13: Mount make for the rocks. Sergeant sergeant passed the word.

368
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 4: Now you make for the rocks, mister sir Christ st here,

369
00:21:52,079 --> 00:21:58,440
Captain Parkness in your time, No, sir, you better mount,

370
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:03,839
Sir Augness Augness Mouth, make.

371
00:22:03,799 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 11: For the rocks, you said, mister Simon's ulcer.

372
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 5: But he's on, Captain, he'd better be.

373
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:11,599
Speaker 6: Now let's go.

374
00:22:21,759 --> 00:22:24,319
Speaker 13: Again again and fire.

375
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 11: Give him a steady load of it. They're firing the cancer.

376
00:22:43,519 --> 00:22:44,519
Speaker 8: You can have a camp.

377
00:22:53,839 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 11: And he signed the huckness.

378
00:22:55,039 --> 00:22:55,400
Speaker 6: Captain.

379
00:22:55,559 --> 00:22:58,079
Speaker 4: I'm looking at Indians right now, mister sat.

380
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,119
Speaker 6: Wultr. Fireman, they're out of range.

381
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:16,319
Speaker 4: What let's see how we stood up, mister sebit right, Captain?

382
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,200
All right, Harrison, all.

383
00:23:22,079 --> 00:23:22,640
Speaker 13: Right, Captain.

384
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 11: I'd like to wake up this way every morning.

385
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:30,079
Speaker 5: That's the prettiest sight in the world. Indians riding away

386
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:30,440
from you.

387
00:23:30,839 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 11: Ain't that right, Captain?

388
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:38,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, just right, monk. I'll look on ahead, mister Sabitt,

389
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:39,559
so you check the other way.

390
00:23:39,519 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 11: Yes, Captain. Over here, it's man.

391
00:23:52,839 --> 00:23:55,400
Speaker 4: You have never seen little blood before me stake, Captain.

392
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:56,160
Speaker 12: This man is hurt.

393
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 17: They get your gys nick, that's all little nick and

394
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,759
shoulder like we had a thousand times, Captain.

395
00:24:06,799 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 4: And let's have a look. Oh m hm, he's lost

396
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:14,039
a lot of blood.

397
00:24:15,279 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 10: He's gonna make somebody a wonderful mother.

398
00:24:17,599 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 8: Captain.

399
00:24:18,279 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 4: I think you'll live, of course, I don't know.

400
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:23,599
Speaker 8: It's sure already.

401
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:25,559
Speaker 17: Get me a couple of days in the hospital, don't

402
00:24:25,599 --> 00:24:30,079
you think a couple of days of sleeping, spoon feeding.

403
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 8: Maybe you.

404
00:24:32,599 --> 00:24:34,799
Speaker 4: You're gonna live till you get to the hospital.

405
00:24:36,599 --> 00:24:39,319
Speaker 17: I can see. I better save my real suffering for

406
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:40,440
the medical offices.

407
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,839
Speaker 12: Well, captain, or what do you think of it?

408
00:24:58,960 --> 00:24:59,279
Speaker 8: Captain?

409
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 4: What's it supposed to be?

410
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 12: Well, the account of the raid on our camp at

411
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:09,359
Fish Canyon.

412
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,599
Speaker 4: Reads like the Battle of bull Run with Indians. Well,

413
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,680
I colored it a little. You counted a hundred Indians,

414
00:25:16,799 --> 00:25:19,240
mister Hackneys, I saw maybe twenty. Well I did that

415
00:25:19,319 --> 00:25:23,160
on purpose, Captain, and Sergeant Gorse got a flesh wound

416
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:26,559
in the shoulder. He didn't die a hero's death like

417
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,279
the sergeant and your story.

418
00:25:28,079 --> 00:25:30,279
Speaker 12: Here, don't you see, Captain?

419
00:25:30,279 --> 00:25:32,279
Speaker 4: The people back east, the people in.

420
00:25:32,319 --> 00:25:34,759
Speaker 12: New York and Washington, they've got to be blasted out

421
00:25:34,759 --> 00:25:35,480
of their beliefs.

422
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,079
Speaker 4: If lies about a pitch battle that never happened.

423
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:41,599
Speaker 12: Well, you think I'll pay attention to the story as

424
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,039
it really happened. You think that'll get you the guns

425
00:25:44,079 --> 00:25:44,920
and the equipment you need.

426
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:52,960
Speaker 4: I don't know, mister Harkness, I don't know your business.

427
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:58,160
When you came here, you said you wanted a fair

428
00:25:58,319 --> 00:26:02,000
picture of the West. I still do. You're getting it.

429
00:26:03,519 --> 00:26:07,680
We got settlers who get massacred. We well, like the

430
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,920
five families you saw in Fish Canyon. We get settlers

431
00:26:12,039 --> 00:26:16,400
like mister Callender, who don't We got red men who

432
00:26:16,559 --> 00:26:19,599
slaughter innocent whites, and we got red men who sit

433
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:23,119
down at treaty tables and try to make peace.

434
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:27,279
Speaker 12: Well, that all that doesn't make exciting reading, cat.

435
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,160
Speaker 4: It makes life and death out here.

436
00:26:34,599 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 12: You're you're quite a realist, aren't you.

437
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:41,200
Speaker 4: I live here, mister Harkness.

438
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 12: The Army is always right.

439
00:26:49,839 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 4: Army is not always anything, not always right, not always wrong.

440
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,119
You tore up the story. I didn't.

441
00:27:01,039 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 12: I'm right back where I started, Captain, I am.

442
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,599
Speaker 4: I've still got a lot to learn, and it's still

443
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,400
a good sign if you want it.

444
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 2: Fort Laramie is produced and directed by Norman mc donald

445
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:39,119
and stars Raymond Burr as lee Quin's captain of Cavalry,

446
00:27:39,519 --> 00:27:43,079
with Vic Perrin as Sergeant Gorse. The script was specially

447
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,640
written for Fort Laramie by Kathleen Hit, with sound patterns

448
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:51,240
by Bill James and ray Kemper musical supervision by Amarigo Marino.

449
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,640
Featured in the cast were Lawrence Dobkin, Harry Bartel, Jack Moyles,

450
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,279
Sam Edwards, Parley Bear, and Lou Krugman.

451
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 13: A Company Tencent's.

452
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:35,680
Speaker 2: Miss Next Week, another transcribed story of the Northwest Frontier

453
00:28:36,039 --> 00:28:40,000
and the troopers who fought under Lee Quin's captain of cavalry.

454
00:28:48,559 --> 00:28:51,680
Many people who should know better sometimes use their automobiles

455
00:28:51,759 --> 00:28:54,200
to take out whatever is bothering them on other people.

456
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,559
Keep this in mind. Driving too fast or trying to

457
00:28:57,599 --> 00:29:00,440
be traffic lights doesn't prove you're better than the other guy.

458
00:29:01,079 --> 00:29:04,559
You can prove your superiority by setting a new safety record.

459
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,319
Not only that, but you'll be around to enjoy it.
