:57:00
How far is the camp?
:57:02
5 miles.
:57:04
The creek called wounded knee.
:57:42
You can't feed 400 hundred people on this
:57:45
your job is to deliver the required
rations to wounded knee, mr. Wheeler,
:57:48
not to question the order.
:57:50
I'm... I'm not questioning it.
:57:51
I'm just saying.
:57:52
Don't fail to bring back your
keen eyewitness observations.
:57:55
Why don't you climb aboard
and see for yourself?
:57:58
Uh, thanks, wheeler, but, uh, I'm forced
to remain in the thick of activity.
:58:04
You style yourselves "war correspondents,"
:58:06
but the only fighting you've
seen is at the bar at the
:58:08
hillsgate hotel where you
lubricate your vivid imaginations.
:58:12
Hyah!
:58:17
Pine ridge, south dakota.
:58:18
Sunday, december 28th.
:58:20
The indian war here has collapsed.
:58:23
Chief big foot's defeated hostiles rest
fewer than 30 miles from this agency,
:58:27
apprehended by the gallant
men of the famed 7th cavalry.
:58:31
The chief's surrender is all but certain
to flush out those bands of renegades which
:58:34
for too long have held this agency and its
:58:36
surrounding settlements in
a virtual state of siege.
:58:40
All civilized people here
await big foot's return
:58:43
and give thanks in this time of
peace that the indian troubles are
:58:46
about to be brought to a close
without further sacrifice of life.
:58:59
Robert: Here you go.
