:11:02
I wasn't just playing Indian,
I was living Indian.

:11:15
Only one thing bothered me:...
:11:17
...I was small for my years.
In fact, darn near a runt.

:11:21
The Pawnee stole seven ponies.
There's going to be a war party.

:11:25
But you can't go. You're too little
and weak, like a girl.

:11:33

:11:44
How did you do that?
:11:48

:11:56

:12:28
One by one, the Human Beings
were rubbed out.

:12:33
Little Man was very brave.
:12:35
The Pawnees called out to him,...
:12:38
..."If you will quit fighting,
we will let you go".

:12:42
But Little Man answered,
"It's a good day to die".

:12:48
Finally, they cut off his head,...
:12:51
...but he kept fighting
without his head.

:12:54

:12:58
...and his head,
which was stuck on a spear,...
