Transcript

At the Calum! Ho! 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. He's in there.

Red Horse is dying, Captain. He sent for me. And you have come. Redhorse alone believed you would come. He's an old friend. Is he alone? The great spirit chief is near, but Redhorse is alone.

He waits for you and snowfoot. Yeah. My old friend, come sit by me. Thank you, Redhorse. I knew you would come. There's a feel of the heart between us.

I sent for you and snowfoot my son, and I knew you would come. Will snowfoot come? As a father I hope he will. As a man I know he will not. I cannot blame him.

I can. To come to me is to come on to the reservation. No foot will never do that. He is young and certain of many things. Snowfoot's how old now, about fifteen? As the last leaves fall from the trees before the first snowfall, my son will begin his sixteenth winter.

His mind moves quickly, but he is yet too young for wisdom. If he is all you say, maybe the wisdom will come. But he's heading for trouble, Redhorse. He and that pack of young braves with him.

So far, their content to ride fast make a lot of noise. That won't last, you know. Snowfoot has not killed. Not yet, as far as we know. But he's wild. He'll be looking for cool feathers.

You don't get them running off horses and firing empty cabins. These are my mistakes he is making. You know better than that, Redhorse. my good friend, believe what I say. I know better in this moment than I have ever known.
