:30:02
I do believe so.
:30:05
But the last time we met,
you were sitting on a horse...

:30:08
...dressed up like a bed.
:30:14
Didn't you and your White Knights
burn a cross in front of my house?

:30:19
And beat a black man half to death
because he tried to farm for himself?

:30:24
I did not!
:30:26
Didn't your leader
point a gun at me...

:30:29
...and say that you and your Knights are
''the only true law in Tennessee''?

:30:33
You don't recognize the authority
of this court at all, do you?

:30:37
Which is why you can lie about me.
:30:39
You are the liar!
:30:41
The real reason you are here is...
:30:44
...to stop me from selling land
to a colored man...

:30:47
...who'd then be a landowner
on a level with yourself.

:30:50
You may go to hell!
:30:52
You will watch your tongue
in my court.

:30:55
And you will watch your tongue
in my presence!

:30:59
You sit up there
in judgment of nobody!

:31:02
In two years,
when the Yankees are gone...

:31:04
...you will be back in the field
where you belong!

:31:10
Quite possibly, Mr. Folsom.
:31:12
But in the meantime, you are
in contempt of my court...

:31:16
...and I sentence you to 30 days
in county jail.

:31:18
Sentence me?
You nappy-headed son of a bitch!

:31:22
Sixty days!
:31:29
Show Mr. Folsom the way
to our uncomfortable facilities.

:31:32
You're a dead man!
:31:35
The jury will disregard
the testimony of that witness.

:31:39
Mr. Towns--
:31:41
How shall I address you?
:31:43
Jack Sommersby.
:31:46
Can you offer evidence to that effect?
:31:52
How many of y'all are here
from Vine Hill?

:31:59
How many willing to swear
I'm Jack Sommersby?
