:18:03
you got old followin' me from jail to jail.
:18:07
It's time to douse the lights.
:18:09
I told you before, Robbie,
I will not let them kill you.
:18:14
I'm going to Washington DC very soon.
:18:17
- I haven't begun to fight.
- Time's up.
:18:25
You just don't know how to quit,
do you, Ma?
:18:32
Did you think Mother was gonna
let them hurt my Robbie?
:18:43
Carrying a petition for clemency,
:18:45
Elizabeth Stroud doggedly haunted
the offices of Washington officials,
:18:49
in an effort to gain an audience
with the president of the United States.
:18:53
Finally, she managed to see
Senator Ham Lewis.
:18:57
He reminded her
of the president's grave illness.
:19:00
Grasping at straws,
she pleaded with the senator
:19:03
to make an appointment for her
with the president's wife.
:19:06
Reluctantly, he agreed.
:19:21
Tell me, Mrs Stroud, why do you think
the president should intervene?
:19:26
Mrs Wilson, the president is known
as the symbol of compassion
:19:31
throughout the whole world.
:19:33
I'm sure that deep in his heart
:19:35
he doesn't believe in the brutality
of an eye for an eye.
:19:40
I've never seen your husband,
but I've seen pictures of him.
:19:45
He has the face of a man
who has known great suffering.
:19:49
I think he'd understand what it means
to have the pack yapping at his heels.
:19:57
Mrs Wilson, they've turned on
your husband in his fight for peace.
