:12:02
under eight foot of snow...
:12:04
while l moved the herd 300 miles
south to try and save it.
:12:06
Saved about half of it.
:12:08
You were a little more
than a year old...
:12:10
at the time
of the great Comanche raids.
:12:13
We stood off 500
Plains lndians for nine days.
:12:17
Petulant, Becky?
:12:19
l think you better go on home.
:12:22
See that Ching gets those birds.
:12:39
Becky!
:12:41
Come here.
:12:51
There's something
l ought to tell you.
:12:54
Guess now is
as good a time as any.
:12:56
You're going to have
every young buck...
:12:59
west of the Missouri
around here trying to marry you,
:13:02
mostly because
you're a handsome filly,
:13:05
but partly because l own
everything in this country...
:13:08
from here to there.
:13:09
They'll think
you're going to inherit it.
:13:11
Well, you're not.
:13:14
l'm going to leave
most of it to...
:13:17
well, to the nation, really,
:13:19
for a park where no lumbermen
will cut down all the trees...
:13:24
for houses with leaky roofs.
:13:26
Nobody will kill all the beaver
for hats for dudes...
:13:29
nor murder the buffalo
for robes.
:13:31
What l'm going to give you
is a 500-cow spread...
:13:35
on the upper Green River.
:13:37
Now, that may not seem
like much,
:13:40
but it's more than we had,
your mother and l.
:13:44
Some folks are going
to say l'm doing all this...
:13:48
so l can sit up
in the hereafter...
:13:51
and look down
on a park named after me,
:13:53
or that l was
disappointed in you,
:13:55
didn't want you to get
all that money.
:13:57
But the real reason, Becky,
is because l love you,
