Peace for John Medford,
:13:05
but not for us, my friends, not yet.
:13:08
This morning, we woke up to find
that we've got still another widow
:13:11
in a town
that's already got more than its share,
:13:14
and she was widowed
by a Reb, Matt Weaver.
:13:18
No, the war is not over for us, friends.
:13:22
This confederate soldier -
:13:24
he's still in uniform, mind,
still bearing arms -
:13:27
invaded this township,
broke into my house, broke out of jail,
:13:31
if you believe our good sheriff.
:13:33
And in the secret places
he did smite to death an innocent.
:13:38
I put it to you,
how do we smite this enemy of the Lord?
:13:42
Now, listen here. You listen here to me.
:13:46
I brung the first wagons in.
:13:49
I can bring this rebel boy in to stand trial.
:13:54
I got to bring him in.
:13:56
We're not forgetting what you done
when you was able, you old warhorse.
:14:00
We won't send you out
to get cut down by a crazy Reb.
:14:03
Suppose you tell us
what you're working us up to.
:14:05
Lacking a posse
or a sheriff able to do the job,
:14:11
come to me, we could call on
the US Marshal in Santa Fe for help.
:14:15
Except the US Marshal's got a territory
full of looters and Rebs to clean up.
:14:21
They got a backlog a year long.
:14:23
But we can't wait a year. We can't wait
a week. Business will go to pot.
:14:28
How many more
can Matt Weaver widow in a year?
:14:33
I hear you, Mr McKeever,
so I'm digging into my own pocket.
:14:38
I sent Crane Adams to Amarillo
to hire a lawman
:14:41
able to flush that Reb out of these hills
:14:44
and end this war we thought was over.
:14:48
A lawman, Mr Brewster?
Crane went to find a gunfighter.
:14:53
A gunfighter kills the man he goes after.
No trial, no jury.
:14:57
Guilty or innocent, he kills him.
:14:59
- Are you asking us to believe...?
- I'm asking you nothing, Mrs Adams.
