1
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 1: If you didn't commit this murder, you'll go free. If

2
00:00:09,599 --> 00:00:12,160
you did, I'll see that.

3
00:00:12,199 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 2: You hang have gone.

4
00:00:25,719 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 3: We'll travel, Starring mister John Daymer as Paladin, San Francisco,

00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,400

00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:06,200
to see me. Thank you so much, Ohia, very welcome.

30
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:15,439
Good morning, mister Peladin. I'm missus Clell Thomas. I've been

31
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,000
under a doctor's care here in the hotel for several days.

32
00:02:19,759 --> 00:02:24,280
This morning I received this telegram. It explains why I

33
00:02:24,319 --> 00:02:28,240
want to see you. You may read it here.

34
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,599
Speaker 1: I'm holding Clell for murder of Bill Watkins. You shouldn't

35
00:02:33,599 --> 00:02:37,039
come home as soon as possible. Clell does not know

36
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:42,240
I'm telegraphing you. Sign sheriff. Clell is your husband.

37
00:02:42,719 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 4: Yes, mister Pellanin. I don't know what this is all about.

38
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,479
Speaker 2: And you want me to take your home, isn't it?

39
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 4: No? No, I've been ill and I couldn't possibly travel now.

40
00:02:54,439 --> 00:02:58,000
We live in way Rica. I want you to go

41
00:02:58,039 --> 00:03:01,080
there for me. I'll pay you one thousand a thousand.

42
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 2: Why what can I do prove.

43
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 4: That my husband didn't commit murder? Will you do it?

44
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 2: What makes you think he didn't, Missus Thummas.

45
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:20,319
Speaker 4: A woman knows her husband. Claire is strong, impulsive, mister Paladin.

46
00:03:20,439 --> 00:03:25,280
He wouldn't commit murder. A mistake is being made.

47
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 2: Please all right, I'll do what I can.

48
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: Wa Rika, California was a long ride north from San Francisco,

49
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,120
through valleys of golden wheat and tall Timothy. I spent

50
00:03:56,199 --> 00:03:58,599
half a day in the shadow of Mount Shasta and

51
00:03:58,639 --> 00:04:01,560
then beyond into the mountains. But I finally came to

52
00:04:01,599 --> 00:04:05,000
a bustling town of plaster miners and leather tongue bullwhackers.

53
00:04:05,719 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 5: I pulled up at a hitch rail near the jail.

54
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,600
We got room for two horses. Here go get a boat.

55
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:26,720
Pushing your horse around? Yeah, I see him.

56
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: Heytranger, settle down.

57
00:04:28,319 --> 00:04:32,399
Speaker 2: Hey you Yeah, I can hear without your hollering. You're

58
00:04:32,439 --> 00:04:33,000
talking to me.

59
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:38,319
Speaker 5: He's a smile all of kind. Heyy, Henry, Yeah, I

60
00:04:38,439 --> 00:04:44,399
better teach him something. That's my horse. You kicked as a.

61
00:04:44,399 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 2: Boy, Henry, I didn't kick that horse.

62
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 3: Nobody touches my horse.

63
00:04:50,079 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 5: I'm gonna cut you open like a melon.

64
00:04:54,199 --> 00:04:57,399
Speaker 1: You've had a little too much to drink, mister. I'll

65
00:04:57,439 --> 00:04:58,319
put that knife away.

66
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 5: You ain't gonna tell you, Henry, no, oh.

67
00:05:03,319 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 2: No, I listen. I warned you, keep back. I don't

68
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:06,560
want to hurt you.

69
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 5: Now, son, come hurt me. You ain't gonna hurt me.

70
00:05:11,519 --> 00:05:16,519
Speaker 2: I told you, Hey.

71
00:05:16,399 --> 00:05:21,759
Speaker 5: Henry, Henry, Henry, you ain't getting up. You're his friend,

72
00:05:21,759 --> 00:05:23,240
you better dump him in that horse trough and get

73
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:23,879
him sobered up.

74
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:25,959
Speaker 2: You didn't need to hit him so hard. I'd be

75
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,959
all right, let me go here.

76
00:05:29,079 --> 00:05:31,399
Speaker 5: What happened. I'll tell you what happened, Sheriff.

77
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 2: Henry has been beat up. Yeah, she did this man

78
00:05:34,399 --> 00:05:36,879
that he came at me with a knife. Don't listen

79
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:37,160
to him.

80
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 6: A shoff this stranger and started kicking Henry's horse around

81
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,399
and let me jump Henry.

82
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:42,399
Speaker 5: Oh he did, did he?

83
00:05:42,399 --> 00:05:44,399
Speaker 3: Henry was only trying to protect himself.

84
00:05:44,519 --> 00:05:47,600
Speaker 5: We don't cotton with troublemakers, miss town. Mister what brings

85
00:05:47,639 --> 00:05:48,199
you here anyway?

86
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 1: I didn't start the trouble. I came here to see

87
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:51,399
a man named Clel Thomas.

88
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 5: You'll see him real soon light. He's in the same

89
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,920
cells you're going to. I'm arresting you for assaultant battery

90
00:05:57,959 --> 00:06:00,920
on whose complaint? Right now? My old and Henry Thomas

91
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,560
is there when he wakes up? Thomas is any relation

92
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:04,360
to Claude Thomas?

93
00:06:04,639 --> 00:06:04,879
Speaker 7: Yeah?

94
00:06:04,959 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 5: Your son? I start walking. What's your name, mister Paladin?

95
00:06:21,879 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 2: Yeah? In here.

96
00:06:26,079 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 5: You can hand over that gun.

97
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:27,639
Speaker 2: Paladin.

98
00:06:27,879 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 5: It'll be real safe with me till you get out

99
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:30,000
of jail.

100
00:06:30,879 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 2: I guess I have no choice here. You say i'd

101
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,160
be in the same cell as mister Thomas.

102
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 5: That's right. I'm making it real convenient for you to

103
00:06:42,399 --> 00:06:56,560
talk to him. Brought you some company, Claw, you'll have

104
00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:04,800
someone to swear advertise me mine. Well, I'm getting there, Jeff.

105
00:07:05,959 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 6: What's the doctor say about Judge Baker?

106
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 5: And says he's well enough to hold the bail here?

107
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,639
And it's about time.

108
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,199
Speaker 2: I've been waiting a week?

109
00:07:13,839 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 5: When is it this afternoon? Out to Judge's wrench? Doc

110
00:07:17,759 --> 00:07:18,759
won't let him come to town.

111
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,519
Speaker 6: Does a judge know I want the city council sitting

112
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:22,480
his grand jury?

113
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 5: He knows he'll be there, then it ought to come

114
00:07:25,959 --> 00:07:30,160
off just fine. Uh, Claire, this man arrested? His name,

115
00:07:30,279 --> 00:07:32,319
Paladin said, once talked to you?

116
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,279
Speaker 2: Ah, what about your wife?

117
00:07:36,319 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 5: Sent me Mary? Where'd you see Mary? San Francisco? I

118
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,879
wish she she's better, but she won't be able to

119
00:07:44,879 --> 00:07:45,839
travel for a few days.

120
00:07:48,079 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 6: Oh, there's one consolation. All this will be over with

121
00:07:50,759 --> 00:07:51,800
before she knows about it.

122
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:57,079
Speaker 1: She knows about it now she does. Oh well, someone

123
00:07:58,519 --> 00:08:00,519
someone sent her a telegram.

124
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,519
Speaker 5: Clail, Maybe I better get this man out of here.

125
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 2: Shut up, Jeb.

126
00:08:05,879 --> 00:08:08,639
Speaker 6: Who sent her a telegram, Paladin, she didn't tell me

127
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,720
who it was. Why did she send you? She wants

128
00:08:11,759 --> 00:08:17,480
me to prove that you didn't commit murder, Jeb, why

129
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,360
do you arrest this man you beat up on?

130
00:08:19,519 --> 00:08:19,879
Speaker 5: Henry?

131
00:08:20,079 --> 00:08:21,399
Speaker 2: Henry? Is he all right?

132
00:08:21,639 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 5: All right?

133
00:08:22,079 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 6: Claile, don't worry, mister. You stay away from my son.

134
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,839
If you don't, you'll have to answer to me, and

135
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:32,879
you better teach them some manners, Jeb. I want this

136
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:33,600
man out.

137
00:08:33,399 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 5: Of here, sure, Clail. I'll turn him loose if you

138
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:36,440
say so.

139
00:08:36,639 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 6: And you, Paladin, I want you out of town in

140
00:08:39,399 --> 00:08:39,759
an hour.

141
00:08:39,919 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 1: Look, your wife has hired me to come here, and

142
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:43,759
I won't leave until my job is finished.

143
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,919
Speaker 6: My wife doesn't run my affairs, Paladin, I do, and

144
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:48,720
I don't need you or anybody else to keep me

145
00:08:48,759 --> 00:08:51,879
from the short end of a rope. I'll get out.

146
00:08:51,679 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 8: Of this in my own way.

147
00:09:02,159 --> 00:09:04,440
Speaker 1: Sheriff Miller was more than willing to go along with

148
00:09:04,519 --> 00:09:06,720
Clell's demand, so I was released from jail.

149
00:09:07,919 --> 00:09:09,039
Speaker 2: I hadn't learned very much.

150
00:09:08,879 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: About the murder charge placed against kel Thomas, but I

151
00:09:11,159 --> 00:09:13,039
knew the local saloon would be a good place to

152
00:09:13,039 --> 00:09:14,080
hear the latest gossip.

153
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 2: As it turned out.

154
00:09:15,799 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: The saloon was owned by a girl named Sally Morgan,

155
00:09:18,399 --> 00:09:21,159
an old friend of mine from San Francisco. She had

156
00:09:21,159 --> 00:09:23,480
owned a place on the Barbary Coast until the politicians

157
00:09:23,519 --> 00:09:26,399
decided they'd help her spend the profits, so she just

158
00:09:26,399 --> 00:09:29,240
closed up and dropped out of sight. It was good

159
00:09:29,279 --> 00:09:31,519
to see her and we talked over a cool picture

160
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:32,320
of lager beer.

161
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 9: Soqwell threw you out of jail.

162
00:09:37,519 --> 00:09:40,639
Speaker 5: Yeah, Tariff Miller doesn't seem to have much to say

163
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,000
when it comes to Clell's demand.

164
00:09:42,159 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 9: Wow, they're good friends. Well's a big important man in

165
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,360
this town. He gets whatever he wants.

166
00:09:47,799 --> 00:09:49,879
Speaker 2: Oh does that mean he wants to be in jail?

167
00:09:50,159 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 9: I think he does. Too many people are against him

168
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,639
since they think he killed Bill Watkins. He'll get out

169
00:09:55,639 --> 00:09:58,159
on bail as soon as they have a hearing. In

170
00:09:58,159 --> 00:10:01,279
the meantime, it looks good like Sheriff Miller is doing

171
00:10:01,279 --> 00:10:04,000
his duty. You know, you're lucky Clell wanted you out

172
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,720
of jail, especially after you tangle with Henry.

173
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, what's the money with that boy?

174
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,879
Speaker 9: He tries to be like his father, but he can't

175
00:10:11,879 --> 00:10:12,320
bring it all.

176
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,559
Speaker 4: Henry's a weakling. Clail sticks up for him.

177
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,919
Speaker 9: No, matter what I fixed. Henry though, Oh, well, one

178
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,120
thing Clall doesn't hold with his gambling.

179
00:10:22,519 --> 00:10:23,279
Speaker 4: Henry owed me a.

180
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 9: Heap of losses, So I threatened to tell his dad

181
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:26,440
if he didn't pay up.

182
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:28,519
Speaker 2: What did he ever pay? Oh?

183
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:32,799
Speaker 9: He sure did three days ago, thirty five hundred.

184
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,919
Speaker 2: Dollars thirty five Does the boy have that kind of money?

185
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:40,399
Speaker 9: No, but Clell's got plenty. Henry probably cooked up some story.

186
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 2: Tell me about the murders.

187
00:10:42,799 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 9: Sally Well next to Clell, Bill Watkins was the biggest

188
00:10:47,279 --> 00:10:50,360
cattleman around here. Last week, he and Clell got into

189
00:10:50,399 --> 00:10:53,159
an argument over a broken fence between their spreads and

190
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:57,039
almost shot each other on the spot. Next day, Watkins

191
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,679
was found in his house, shot in the back. People

192
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,360
figured Clell took care of Watkins the easy way. They'd

193
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:03,279
had trouble before.

194
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,919
Speaker 2: Do you think Clell didn't Well, I never.

195
00:11:07,799 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 9: Thought he'd shoot anybody in the back, but everybody says

196
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,399
he must have. That day, somebody saw his horse tied

197
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,200
up outside of watkins house. Well, how long are you

198
00:11:18,279 --> 00:11:19,399
going to be in town, Paladin?

199
00:11:19,919 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know.

200
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: Clell's wife hired me to prove he didn't commit murder. Oh,

201
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,720
I'll stay till I find out who did you know?

202
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 6: Paladin?

203
00:11:27,519 --> 00:11:30,559
Speaker 9: One thing I can't figure out is why Clell doesn't

204
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:31,080
want you.

205
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:31,960
Speaker 2: To help clear him.

206
00:11:32,039 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't either unless he Sally. You said mister

207
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:36,840
Watkins was shot in his home.

208
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,039
Speaker 2: That's right? Is anyone there now?

209
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:39,519
Speaker 9: No?

210
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:41,759
Speaker 4: He lived alone since his wife died.

211
00:11:41,799 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 2: What I'd like to have a look around the house.

212
00:11:44,159 --> 00:11:46,639
Speaker 4: Well, it's locked up. Sheriff Miller has the keys.

213
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 9: But I bet he'd take you out there.

214
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 4: If I were to ask him to.

215
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:54,279
Speaker 9: Would you mind not for an old friend like you, Paladin?

216
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 5: Here we are, I remember, Paladin, I ain't doing this

217
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:14,240
for you. Mi's for Sally and also for mister Thomas future.

218
00:12:14,279 --> 00:12:18,039
Fine woman. I'm sure she is Clell now he's one

219
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,039
of my best friends. No matter what he done, he

220
00:12:21,039 --> 00:12:23,039
wouldn't like me showing you around here, though.

221
00:12:23,039 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 2: Tref Where was Watkins killed?

222
00:12:25,519 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 5: It's very room. I found him lying face down in

223
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,440
front of the fireplace here. I figure he was reaching

224
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:33,679
for his rifle when he was shot.

225
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 2: I see where does this door lead to closet?

226
00:12:43,039 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 5: What are you doing that for? Ain't nothing in there? No,

227
00:12:49,759 --> 00:12:52,759
what are you hoping to find? Paladin? I'm not sure

228
00:12:53,799 --> 00:12:57,320
you won't find nothing. I left his place over real good?

229
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 2: Maybe not? And what's this just to loose floorboard?

230
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:05,279
Speaker 5: That don't be nothing?

231
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,159
Speaker 2: Does it? Maybe not?

232
00:13:11,759 --> 00:13:14,960
Speaker 5: Say? How come there ain't dirt under there?

233
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:18,919
Speaker 2: Look?

234
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:24,759
Speaker 5: Here will be a cedar wood platform built under that floor.

235
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,720
You think it's got something to do with the killing Paladin.

236
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:33,320
Speaker 1: Sheriff and mister Watkins bank his money in way Rika,

237
00:13:34,159 --> 00:13:35,159
I wouldn't know about that.

238
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,080
Speaker 5: You're thinking he kept it here and somebody stole it

239
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:39,480
from him.

240
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,919
Speaker 2: Could be? Come on, let's get back to town.

241
00:13:47,519 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: At the bank, I learned that mister Watkins was considered

242
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,679
something of a miser. He would make deposits of nearly

243
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,679
ten thousand dollars twice a year. When he was killed,

244
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,639
he hadn't been in for five months. I went to

245
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:01,759
the jail and found that the sheriff had taken Clell

246
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,519
out to Judge Baker's ranch for the bail hearing. But

247
00:14:04,639 --> 00:14:07,039
the time I got there was almost dark and the hearing.

248
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 2: Was over healing.

249
00:14:08,399 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 1: Judge was in his study, lying on the couch, resting

250
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:12,720
from the stream of the proceedings.

251
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 2: Uh sit on, Paladin, thank you, sir.

252
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 1: Clell's gone back to town to celebrate Jerry let him

253
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:24,840
out on bail. Yeah, I figured they wouldn't. What's your business, paladin, Judge?

254
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,679
Do you think Clell Thomas would steal?

255
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,279
Speaker 2: No, No, he wouldn't do that. Why would he.

256
00:14:30,279 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 1: He's got as much money as any man needskell wouldn't steal.

257
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,159
Speaker 2: But I do think he's capable of murder.

258
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: Well, I have reason to believe this was a killing

259
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,279
for money. Oh yeah, what makes you think?

260
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 5: So?

261
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: I found where mister Watkins had hidden a large sum

262
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:43,639
of money.

263
00:14:43,679 --> 00:14:46,159
Speaker 2: It was gone. You know what's going on outside?

264
00:14:47,559 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: Huh? And see two men are hurting cattle into your pasture. Well,

265
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:57,600
why I didn't order that done?

266
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:00,799
Speaker 2: He judge? A stampede.

267
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,039
Speaker 5: Well, how can it be. Cattle don't stampede in their

268
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:04,720
own background?

269
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:05,799
Speaker 2: Punch shots?

270
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 5: What's going on?

271
00:15:06,879 --> 00:15:08,519
Speaker 2: I don't know, judge, but I'll find out for you.

272
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 5: Outside I mounted my horse and raced down to the pasture.

273
00:15:14,399 --> 00:15:16,120
But before I could help, one of the men did

274
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,320
a foolish thing. He went to the point of the

275
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,320
herd and tried to stop them. His horse tripped and

276
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:20,919
he went down.

277
00:15:21,559 --> 00:15:23,519
Speaker 1: I managed to get my horse into position to prevent

278
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,840
some of the herd from passing over him. It was

279
00:15:25,879 --> 00:15:27,519
then I realized that the man on the ground was

280
00:15:27,559 --> 00:15:31,399
Henry Thomas. The best I could do was make him comfortable.

281
00:15:31,679 --> 00:15:33,799
His friend jug came up and stood nearby.

282
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 5: Oh is he hurt?

283
00:15:35,919 --> 00:15:36,159
Speaker 9: Bad?

284
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:40,159
Speaker 2: Yeah? I'm fraid. So is he going to die? Henry?

285
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:46,120
Henry here, you're palad and.

286
00:15:47,759 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 3: You're a friend of Mars.

287
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 5: Yes, I'm dying and no you just just rest easy?

288
00:16:00,039 --> 00:16:08,879
Speaker 2: What till mom? I'm sorry? Yes, I don't let him

289
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:13,600
hang paw. It was me I kill Watkins.

290
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 5: I needed the money.

291
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 2: You still I'm hearing me. I can't see you no more, kids,

292
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:32,039
see nothing? Is he dead?

293
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 5: He's dead? Juddon this herd of cattle? Why were you

294
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,000
bringing them here? It was a bribe fifty head. His

295
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,759
old man told Henry to do it, so that was

296
00:16:47,799 --> 00:16:49,799
his way to influence the judge at the murder trial.

297
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,320
Judge didn't know about it. Jud you heard what Henry

298
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,559
said before he died. Yeah, if you had to testify

299
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:57,159
in court, what.

300
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,919
Speaker 2: Would you say? I guess I'd have to tell it

301
00:17:00,039 --> 00:17:01,919
the way I heard it for you. Just be sure

302
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:06,000
you remember that. All right? Here, give me a hand.

303
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:07,839
I better take Henry back to his father.

304
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 6: Ah ooh, I have a good time.

305
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:34,319
Speaker 2: Folks, the drinks around me a nice you know, are clell?

306
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:36,160
Speaker 7: Hell?

307
00:17:37,319 --> 00:17:40,400
Speaker 2: I thought, I told well, it's Henry.

308
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:42,519
Speaker 5: What about Henry.

309
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,079
Speaker 6: Told you to stay away from him.

310
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:50,920
Speaker 2: That's Henry across my horse. He's dead. Ella, did all

311
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,640
you listen to me? Cloll kill you with my bare hands?

312
00:17:53,759 --> 00:17:57,279
Tell you stop? Only boy I got and you killed him.

313
00:17:57,319 --> 00:17:59,720
I didn't, cell I warned you. Let me go. Clell

314
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:08,279
to me, you kill Henry? What if anybody killed him?

315
00:18:08,279 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 1: You did the cattle you were sending the judge Baker

316
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:12,839
stampede and Henry tried to stop them.

317
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,759
Speaker 2: No, Paladin, don't say that. Don't say it. You knew

318
00:18:16,799 --> 00:18:21,039
he killed Watkins. He'd had to be him.

319
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:26,640
Speaker 6: He took my horse that day. I was trying to

320
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:30,920
help him, protect him. It's what a father's for, is it.

321
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,119
I was going to let people think I did it.

322
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:36,440
They'd never have convicted me.

323
00:18:37,599 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 2: Maybe not. Well, I'll help you with your boy.

324
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 7: H No, no, I'll take care of him. I'll take

325
00:18:51,039 --> 00:19:06,880
care of Henry.

326
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 1: Oh h hello, hey boy, did you tell me see Thomas?

327
00:19:17,319 --> 00:19:19,079
Speaker 2: Yes? I told her he saw.

328
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:20,599
Speaker 1: She very sad, now.

329
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,839
