and I don't sell my land that
I've poured my heart's blood into.

Joe John.
:24:34
Joe John is real sorry
for what he done yesterday.

:24:38
Ain't you, son?
:24:41
That's all right, Joe John.

Mrs. Garth,
:24:53
sometimes it happens
:24:56
we can't remain true to our beliefs
without hurting many people,

:25:02
and I'm afraid
this is one of those times.

:25:05
You're the only person
who hasn't sold here.

:25:08
That's all right with me.
:25:12
Granma.
:25:13
Yes, Carol?
:25:15
What?
:25:20
Nothing.
:25:25
Young man, do you know
anything at all about land?

:25:30
I believe so,
that's why I was sent down here.

:25:34
When you go back to the ferry
pick up a handful of soil.

:25:39
That's real bottom.
:25:41
Thousands of tonnes of it
are being washed away every year.

:25:45
Mrs. Garth, you don't love
the land. You love your land.

:25:51
You know the Tennessee River
is a killer.

:25:53
Year after year
it's taken many lives.

:25:57
Isn't it plain common sense
to want to harness it?
