1:00:00
There are almost 100 dead settlers
in the basin...

1:00:03
scalped by this cowardly criminal.
1:00:05
Vittorio may be a criminal by the books,
I don't know.

1:00:08
But if he's a coward,
it hasn't showed up yet.

1:00:10
- Amen, brother.
- I must disagree with you, Mr. Lane.

1:00:12
He's run before us for 200 miles.
1:00:14
Indians have a story
they tell their young ones...

1:00:17
about a hunter who chased a wild cat
until he caught it.

1:00:21
Then it was the other way around.
1:00:22
The story goes back further than
the Indians.

1:00:24
It's originally attributed
to the first Roman army to enter Tartary.

1:00:28
The soldier caught a Tartar and yelled out.
1:00:29
The officer called back for him to come in
with his prisoner.

1:00:32
And he replied, "The Tartar won't let me."
1:00:35
That was one of the favorite stories
of Col. Mays...

1:00:37
who teaches cavalry tactics at the Point.
1:00:39
The story is world-wide.
1:00:40
How long have you been out of that school,
Lieutenant?

1:00:42
Graduated class '69, sir.
1:00:44
This is '70, ain't it?
1:00:46
I just can't seem to keep up with the years.
I meant to get a calendar, but then I forget.

1:00:50
Say, who's President
of these United States now?

1:00:52
Ulysses S. Grant.
1:00:53
You know, I voted once. I was down
in Independence around voting time.

1:00:56
And a fellow come up to me and offered me
$2 if I'd vote for a man named Taylor.

1:01:00
And I was drinking...
1:01:01
drinking a little at the time. And I...
The $2 didn't last...

1:01:04
Mrs. Lowe, Mr. Lane, my orders are
to make a sweep as far as Twin Buttes.

1:01:07
My men'll bivouac here tonight.
We'll go on to Twin Buttes tomorrow...

1:01:10
return tomorrow night to escort you
and your boy out to safety.

1:01:13
If you'll excuse me, madam, I must
see that my men are properly encamped.

1:01:21
Very nice and very young.
1:01:23
He for doggone sure is, ma'am.
1:01:25
- How long you been out on this patrol?
- This is the 20th day.

1:01:28
We've rounded up about eight families
back there, that's all there are left.

1:01:32
We're gonna pick them up on the way out.
1:01:34
There've been many a scalp took, Hondo.
1:01:36
- You know where Vittorio is, don't you?
- I do.

1:01:38
This boy Lieutenant's gonna get you killed.
1:01:40
Us scouts has got to get
these young officers educated.

1:01:43
Johnny, go in and set out the plates for me.
1:01:45
Hondo, if your friend
would like to eat with us, Mr...

1:01:47
Buffalo? Mr...
1:01:50
I've known you for 8 or 10 years.
You must have a last name.

1:01:53
Well, of course I got a last name,
what do you think I am?

1:01:55
I know what you are,
but there's a lady present.

1:01:58
Mrs. Lowe, my name is Baker.
That's what it is, Buffalo Baker.
