:10:00
And this is my friend, Yarnell
Pointdexter, who works on our place.
:10:05
Yes, ma'am. State your business.
:10:08
My father was killed in Fort Smith
by a coward named Tom Chaney.
:10:12
What are you doing
about the murder?
:10:14
We do know this: His name's
Chambers, he's in Indian territory.
:10:18
We think he robbed a mail hack
Tuesday down on the Poteau River.
:10:23
He's medium height,
with a black mark on his cheek.
:10:26
That's Tom Chaney.
There's no Chambers to it.
:10:31
He got that black mark
when a man fired a pistol in his face.
:10:37
- Why aren't you out looking for him?
- I've no authority in the Indian Nation.
:10:42
He's now the business
of the US Marshal.
:10:46
- Who's the best marshal they have?
- Bill Waters is the best tracker.
:10:52
The meanest one is Rooster Cogburn,
double-tough, knows no fear.
:10:57
L T Quinn is the straightest.
He brings them in alive.
:11:01
- Where would I find this Rooster?
- At the Federal Court this afternoon.
:11:06
He's bringing in prisoners
from the territory.
:11:08
- Is Chaney one of them?
- I don't know. That's federal business.
:11:14
Your father's gun...
you'll want to take it home, I expect.
:11:19
His saddle is
at Colonel Stonehill's stock barn,
:11:23
and the rest of his things are
at the Monarch boarding house.
:11:28
I won't rest till Tom Chaney's
barking in hell!
:11:38
Yarnell...
:11:42
You stay with Papa.
:11:44
When you get home, put him
in a better coffin with Mason's apron.
:11:48
Your mama wants you home.
:11:50
Mama knows I can take care of myself.
Tell her not to sign anything till I return.
:11:57
People'll take it wrong
that I leave this to you,
