Mr. Lincoln, now retired from Congress
and practicing law...
:14:04
... realized that the South would fight...
:14:06
... to mold the new and
uncommitted territories to its own image.
:14:11
Still, two years from the presidency...
:14:13
... he pleaded that the free West
be allowed to remain free...
:14:17
... and warned of the hazards
of a house divided against itself.
:14:20
But the South...
:14:22
... seeing it"s power and influence wane...
:14:24
... struggled against the inevitable
in dozens of Western towns.
:14:29
And slowly, the bitter seeds of civil war
took root.
:15:09
Howdy, Mrs. Rawlings.
:15:14
Whoa, Rosebud.
:15:17
Hey, Mr. Peterson.
:15:19
What's that suit you got on?
:15:21
Uniform, Mrs. Rawlings.

Ohio Volunteers.

You won't be seein' me for a spell.
:15:35
Hey, I got a letter for you,
from way out in California.
:15:39
It must be from my sister, Lilith.

"Dear Eve... "
:15:52
Mr. Peterson, could you wait a minute?
:15:54
I wanna answer this right away.
