:16:00
Die hard this
:16:02
just shy of a hundred.
:16:05
Been a while.
:16:07
Buffalo harder to find than a job.
:16:10
Southern herd's almost gone.
:16:17
What are you asking?
:16:19
$3.00 per. You buyin'?
:16:26
I can offer you a dollar per hide,
:16:28
and I consider that more than fair.
:16:32
I consider that to be robbery with
a smile under a high top hat, hillman.
:16:36
Last time the price was $6.00.
:16:37
The rage for buffalo bedspreads and
other accoutrements back east has ended.
:16:41
Most definitively.
:16:43
Leave the buffalo to their extinction, sir.
:16:46
They've served their purpose.
:16:48
On the train from new york to hillsgate,
:16:50
I saw the future... bones.
:16:54
Bones?
:16:55
Buffalo bones.
:16:57
The detritus of sporting
men lured by a $3.00 rail
:17:00
pass and the promise of
game there for the taking.
:17:03
Carcasses left to rot
create a mighty stench.
:17:06
But in that smell,
:17:08
an enterprising man may
detect the odor of money.
:17:11
Bones can be ground to make
fertilizer and fine china,
:17:14
and that's only the beginning.
:17:16
Why, a man can earn himself 8, 9,
:17:19
perhaps as much as $10 a ton.
:17:27
Damn it!
:17:37
I broke away from my father
:17:39
so that we could have a life together,
:17:41
and I mean to make it a good one.
:17:43
I know, but your dreams are not your own.
:17:47
They're your father'S.
:17:48
Clara,
:17:50
all the money we made on the miners
:17:52
we lost on the hides.
:17:54
I wouldn't be gone long.
:17:55
You're gone often enough.
:17:57
Give me a reason to stay.
