:24:02
All right, Harry.
You've got my word.

:24:09
Stilwell.
:24:11
You said "they."
:24:13
Brocius.
:24:15
And Spence.
:24:17
And Warshaw.
:24:22
All right, Harry.
:24:24
Whereas six witnesses
for the defense have testified

:24:28
that the accused, Peter Spence,
Andrew Warshaw, and William Brocius

:24:31
were playing poker
at the Alhambra Saloon

:24:34
at the time of the assault
on Marshal Earp's life,

:24:37
and whereas Sheriff Bryan
has sworn

:24:39
that his deputy, Frank Stilwell,
was on duty at the county jail...

:24:44
...and since the city prosecutor has failed
to produce any evidence to the contrary

:24:48
or any witnesses
to the actual assault

:24:51
or to the number
or identity of assailants...

:24:58
Mr. Fitch?
:25:06
Therefore, the charges of feloniously
assaulting Marshal Virgil Earp

:25:09
brought by the city of Tombstone
against these defendants are dismissed.

:25:13
This court is adjourned.
:25:15
Everybody rise.
:25:31
Wyatt, he knew you had a witness.
He gave you every chance...

:25:33
Let it go, Tom.
:25:35
I'll be damned
if I understand a man

:25:37
whose word to a waiter
is more important than his brother.

:25:40
The law won't work
when part of it is ignored

:25:42
because everyone is either
bought off or terrified.

:25:45
Then I'll enforce the part
that does work.

:25:47
Wyatt...
:25:50
Your brother will be
a cripple for life.

:25:55
Who's gonna take his place
on the ballot, Wyatt?

:25:58
I am.
