:03:07
Thomas, jackson, stop shirkin'
and set that wheel on the bench.
:03:10
They say it's gonna take
10 years to finish the line.
:03:13
I'd sure like to ride it one day.
:03:15
One train from atlantic to pacific?
:03:17
Whoo-hoo!Ha ha!
:03:19
Maybe they'll finish it, maybe they won'T.
:03:21
If there's money to be made, I fully
intend to see our family gets its share.
:03:25
I want to see 20 wheels
on that wall by sundown.
:03:27
Come on, pop, you're talkin'
like the railroad's already here.
:03:31
Listen to me.
:03:32
We have to make ready.
:03:33
Haven't I taught you anything, boy?
:03:36
Pardon me, sir.
:03:38
My name is clara wheeler.
:03:42
My father's name was samson wheeler.
:03:48
You can't turn out an orphan, daniel.
:03:50
The poor thing has no one.
:03:53
I'll send her back east where she belongs.
:03:55
And where will she find
safety in the middle of a war?
:03:58
We've heard nothing from
wheelerton these many months.
:04:01
There are places in st. Jo,
:04:03
across the river, where she
can be with her own kind.
:04:05
It is our christian duty
to care for that child.
:04:08
We're the only people that she has left.
:04:10
Woman, she's not even
samson's natural child.
:04:13
Just a foundling he took in...
:04:15
as was his wont.
:04:17
We owe her nothing.
:04:23
What?
:04:24
Ma's right.
:04:25
Excuse me.
:04:26
We just can't turn our backs
on someone lookin' for our help.
:04:29
Not after what she's been though.
:04:31
Think if it was one of us.
:04:36
Charity always costs those that give it.
:04:38
So you'd bear that burden
upon yourself, I take it?
:04:40
Be responsible for her?
:04:44
Yeah. I will.
:04:46
And you will answer for
her, for good or ill?
:04:49
That's right.
:04:52
Very well, then.
