:14:01
Well, east would put you underwater.
:14:05
Moving west to open
the frontier to folks.
:14:08
Your acreage is located on
the proposed right of way.
:14:11
I am here to get your signature
on this land-sale contract.
:14:16
And I'm authorized to pay you two
dollars an acre.
:14:19
Two dollars?
:14:20
The price was set by the Department of
the Interior of the U.S. government.
:14:25
-This land ain't for sale.
-I understand how you feel.
:14:28
You've made a lovely home here,
but it isn't up to me or you.
:14:32
You familiar with the right
of eminent domain?
:14:35
Yeah, I am. What about it?
:14:38
This land's about to be condemned.
:14:41
You see, I'm doing you folks a favor.
:14:43
Two dollars an acre
is a one-time-only deal.
:14:46
After today, the price drops.
:14:48
If I were you, I'd sign the contract
and we'll be on our way.
:14:52
Good day, Mr. Parker.
:14:54
You can tell Mr. Thaddeus Rains to put
this where the sun don't shine.
:14:58
Shakespeare.
:15:02
I don't think you understand.
:15:05
You don't have a choice.
:15:09
Ma'am, I think that you should
search your heart here. . .
:15:13
. . .and try to do the right thing.
:15:16
Let me ask the Lord.
:15:26
The Lord says to bury them out back.
Nobody will find them.
:15:30
-Somebody's in a vengeful mood.
-Let them go.
:15:33
-We'll bury them next time.
-Oh, all right.
:15:36
Now, ma'am--
:15:41
You folks are making
a serious mistake here.
:15:49
Nicely played.
:15:57
Tell them what you told me.
:15:59
I checked the court documents for the
rail bed. They don't need our land.
