At the... Laramie, starring Raymond Burr as Captain Lee Quince,
specially transcribed tales of the dark and tragic ground of the wild frontier, the saga of fighting men who rode the Rim of Empire, and the dramatic story of Lee Quince, Captain of Cavalry. How far you reckon it is to the North Platte, Captain?
Ten miles, Sergeant. No more than that. Lieutenant Sybert should have the company bivouac there by now. You aim to follow the creek bed clean up there, sir. Not after we water the horses. Ah, this spot's good enough.
Yes, sir. Move out, clean. Sergeant. Captain says we'll take a break here. These those cinches and lead the mounts down to the stream there in water. All right, Sergeant. After their water they can pin-grazed.
Oh, mind them. Kind of peaceful, ain't it? It's quiet. Yeah, sit down, gos. More comfortable on the McClellan. Yes, sir. And in Shoshone's they got a way of wearing out. You think they're still running, Cap?
They'll be back. They never run for long. Not when they're hungry. I never heard of Shoshone's as far east as in Nebraska border before. You can find them as far east as Texas. Only there we call them Comanche's.
They're offshoots of the same tribe. You sure don't talk this thing? Dialects the only difference. They're disorganized a lot, the Shoshone's. I guess we can be glad for that. Little of them goes a long way.
How about the company, Captain? We'll know more when we rendezvous. Lieutenant Sybrits has orders to make camp on the North Platte until the company's accounted for. I think we held up soon. I hope so.
