be back in the spring we give the man a

in there's a couple of J want to see you

kit do they want to come in or where do

I come

up Mr Carson yeah my name is Fremont I'm

in command of those troops outside the

stade Mr cars and I have orders to find

the shortest practical route to

California and map it as I go that's a

mighty pretty country between here and

California when are you aiming to start

Captain just as soon as I can you a

civilian

Scout the job pays $100 a month your

horse isn't

found that's a heap of money are them

Settler's wagons with you yes Mr Terry

is the leader of the Wagon Train we're

just kind of taging long after Captain

Fremont we broke away from a big train

that was taking the Oregon Trail all of

our folks are California Bond a lot of

folks would be uneasy about taking

wagons cross country between here and

California not when we heard that

Captain Fremont was taking you as his

guide this is the Article of agreement

drawn up and signed by every member of

our party appointing one kid Carson as

wagon Master you got women and children

in them wagons ain't

you yes of course I don't reckon I'm

your

man you mean you refuse you see that

just what I was telling you g kid ain't

the kind to go traes around the country

with a Bassel of women and

youngans

you boys don't sound as if you think

much of

soldiers we don't well you find soldiers

you find trouble but when you find

trouble you can't find the

soldiers Mr car what you and your men

think of the Army is your aair I'd

counted on your help but with or without

it I'm going to take these soldiers to

California you don't look like the kind

of a fell that are just hand his wife

and friends over to a flock of savages

we both faced Indians before Indians

with rifles Mr Carson the men and women

with me expect hardship and dangers the

same hardships and the same dangers the

settlers of Kentucky Ohio and Missouri

had to face

Maybe shall we go Mr Terry it seems Mr

Carson isn't interested in American

history why he refused I'd like to talk

to that Mr Carson for a

minute

hey

please please down

here oh I forgot to tell you that there

was a lady next door her name is Dolores

Murphy and Captain Fremont says her Paul

owns half of

California what's she doing here she's

going to California with the rest of the

wagon

folks come to

bed

no use oh Terry I know how your people

must feel I guess we're are fools for

never thinking Carson might refuse Terry

I'm an army officer and I can't tell you

what to do but I can tell you this my

command is going to

California now this is a free country I

can't stop you from following

me how soon can you march Mr Terry load

them

roll

[Applause]

[Music]

Lieutenant take charge of the

[Music]

company you look very good up to Fort

Bridges Sergeant but from now on he's

got to look better yes

sir is everything all right with you

Miss Murphy Captain Fremont it was such

a splendid gesture permitting us to

follow you well Miss Murphy it's the

duty of the United States Army to assist

and protect all citizens of the United

States States wherever they are we're

very grateful and if you can endure the

contact with Rough and Ready soldiers

for another 3 months I think I can

assure you that we'll reach California

even without Carson well I haven't found

it difficult to endure Rough and Ready

soldiers for the past 8 weeks but you

are disappointed about Carson I mean yes

he knows this country better than anyone

I should have felt much safer with him I

should be a fool not to admit my

disappointment are you sure you've used

every argument I offered him everything

my authority permitted

he always wears his bare feet man when

he ain't to go no place are you Mr

Carson uh yes ma'am how much money did

you make last year Mr

Carson he didn't make nothing last year

nor the year before but senorita we have

one fine time Mr Carson I'll pay you

$1,000 in gold in your expenses to take

me to California and 200 each for your

assistance I make one reservation the

other wagons are to go with me if you

offered me 10 10,000 I'd still think

that Army fell Fremont and them other

people are

fools I should have known better than to

practically beg

you yes ma'am you

should Mighty spirited girl that

beautiful

hair I can just see it dryer and outside

of some shy t

you don't need to worry about her hair

some Shon will just pick all of her up

just

thinking no we sure are

especially about Indians having

guns very well but I need you at the

head of the column come with me fre man

do his own job General I'm taking the

wagons to California and I'll get him

there quicker by not killing the horses

with Captain

Fremont

[Music]

[Applause]

oh evening Carson evening

General Oh What A pity to spoil it you

make such a perfect picture up there

thank

[Applause]

[Music]

you

[Music]

[Applause]

Hey kid look I ain't dying with Captain

[Music]

Fremont post number three 8:00 and all's

well

[Music]

just think I'm eating wild animals stew

and liking it nothing's much better than

being tired and a little hungry and

having Antelope stew around a

campfire you like this sort of thing

don't you yes

ma'am never was much for

houses you can't see through the walls

well I got work to do you better check

the axles again a all

right a strange food you have on your

jacket well that ain't fur man' that's

hair hair mhm human hair sure them sure

showing any scalps I got a Cheyenne and

a youth back there someplace but they

don't match very good so I put them back

behind scalps you mean you yes ma'am

sure scalps senorita is a very good

thing to have when the Indian know his

enemy collects scalps he not jump so

quick you see he miss a brave can't get

into engine heaven without a scalp lock

that's why he's so scared to lose it

see well I was I was going to have a rug

made out of these braided like like

horse hair a rug sure I knew a fell once

that had his cabin roofed with him of

course he had a family and had to have a

roof on his

[Music]

cabin I think you're fibbing about the

rug well well a little you don't want to

believe everything I say ma'am I'm an

awful

[Music]

liar I wonder if the captain kisses

these boys good night every night before

he tucks them

in that may put them Soldier Boys to

sleep but it'll wake up every Indian

east of the Rocky

Mountains so the American captain

Fremont and his party have actually

penetrated Shoni country yes

Excellency where are they now they're

entering the foothills of the SI nadas

have my orders been carried out yes

Excellency how many rifles have you

distributed to the shonis 500 Excellency

and they're ready to use them as I

suggested to keep the white man out of

Shoni territory yes

Excellency go back and be sure that

Captain Fremont does not cross the

Sierra

Nevadas see that Lieutenant Ruiz has

everything it

requires but such an order is murder you

are arming the Indians inviting them to

destroy the white men I'm inviting them

to destroy a very dangerous

enemy there are times when I think

you're actually sympathetic to Americans

well why not I have many Americano

friends yes I must remember that you

know valo I'm not fooled by this Captain

Freeman in his scientific Expedition at

the moment Americans coming to

California must spend months at sea but

if Captain Freeman can cut his way

through to California by land an army

can follow him

[Music]

you have distributed the presents we

brought from General Castro yes

Lieutenant R good I will need you to

help me handle the shonis yes

[Music]

lieutenant

[Music]

my sh Brothers The Wagon Train must be

destroyed and the americanos killed the

wagons are not led by foolish soldiers

or stupid settlers but by a great enemy

who has taken many Shoni

sculps Kei

Carson tonight we will attack with the

cunning of the

[Music]

[Music]

wolf you seem to be making great

progress with your history Mr ape oh yes

ma'am I'm halfway through my second

pencil I don't reckon I'd never written

this history if you hadn't to give me

the idea this here book well it seemed a

Pity to see a great imagination like

yours going to waste oh it ain't going

to waste no more Ma anytime I run out of

History I I just fall back on that

[Laughter]

[Music]

imagination

them horses is plum spoiled ma'am

they're always wanting

attention steady boy ain't it funny how

a horse can smell an Indian a mile away

two miles we look into it sort of slip

out around the

camp

well this is as far as I can go until I

find out what size shoe he

wears you mean you haven't asked him I

should think after all this time you two

would be arriving at an understanding

well Mr Carson is one of those big

strong silent men who are a little bit

difficult to understand and after all it

it is rather personal isn't it oh I

don't know Mr ape we size

[Music]

12

oh Mr Carson I was wondering if I'm

sorry ma'am but I can't stop and talk to

you

[Music]

now Carson seems to be in kind of a

hurry oh did you notice that too he

spent the afternoon trying to convince

me that we were heading into trouble

with these Scouts they see an Indian

behind every Bush we mustn't forget that

they've lived among savages for so long

they're practically Savages themselves

but if there was any danger of my

forgetting Mr Carson would constantly

remind

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

me

[Music]

That's mighty

interesting I didn't understand any of

it that one fell was telling the Chiefs

that soldiers are no good without horses

so they're going to run off the

General's horses

[Music]

oh

that's Plum

peculiar the fellow that gave the orders

to the shonis to run off the General's

horses made tracks that tow out no Shoni

make these tracks no Indian made them

come on we got to war tear in the

boys one more mountain to cross and then

California will you be happy well isn't

one always happy going home

I don't know California is my home oh

but we'll make you feel at

home will

you of

course home is where the heart is I'd be

the happiest man in the world if I were

really going home with

you I'm I'm quite sure I I understand

you I want be very sure you do

understand

me the happiest Duty I've ever had has

been to guard you feel responsible for

you

these weeks on the trail have made me

very sure of one

thing I love you very much I think I've

loved you since the first time I saw you

far back at Kansas

Landing if we' been Shon General you'd

have been a little late with that pop

gun time little girl should be in bed

you're not starting to tell me when to

go to bed are you I reckon so

I never heard of anything don't forget

now I'm the wagon boss well wagon boss

or not I'll go to bed when I feel like

it you look at my ti right now man I

hope you're joking Caron if not you're

carrying this wagon ball thing too far

maybe Caron take it easy C take it easy

you probably feel a great satisfaction

in demonstrating your strength and

Mastery on a

girl it don't take much strength ma'am

you're as light as a

feather come on I you

go inside

man General you reckon them centries has

taking good care of your horses of

course let's have a

look sometimes that Mr Carson makes me

so mad I could forget that I'm a lady is

that why you're knitting those socks for

him

what Carson mean when he said we better

get ready for trouble the Shon are going

to try to run off Fremont's

[Music]

[Music]

horses

[Music]

all right boys that on

[Music]

[Music]

you can save your ammunition General

they won't be

back that's what I meant about being

awful prominent might be a good idea to

make a few

changes the difference between you and

me Carson is you do as you please I'm

governed by orders and

regulations and H from now on double the

sentries yes

sir I thought you were sound

asleep maybe a few blew Taps again

[Music]

General

come on we got some more looking around

to do I'm Mighty curious about them

tracks that towed out come on

[Music]

a they came out of the water here TOS

out talked to the Indians a minute and

then when went that

[Applause]

way that's funny right here to out got

on a horse a horse wearing shoes M

Spanish shoes

yeah I'm getting curiouser and

curious

you got that trigger set Lopez to one

horse's hair well hang on to it I don't

want to get my neck in this

[Applause]

thing the way I figure it well Mighty

hot on the trailer who gave guns to them

shonis the to out is a white man he's

laying low and spending his time spying

on the wagon train them shonis could

could call TOS out to them by baring

like a coyote maybe we could bring him

to us the same way anyway it's worth

[Applause]

trying w w w w

[Music]

[Music]

w

[Music]

[Music]

looks Mighty familiar don't he yeah that

reminds me I owe you 10 Beaver skins hey

you know what this is the first time I

ever see two-legged coyote and trap

we'll cut him down but be awful careful

with

him

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

hey I've seen you come a lot closer than

that where did you say them guns came

from you gave the shash

is

it is much better to talk my

friend I have not got the patience of my

friend

Carson

Malo Hey kid ain't that fire a little

too far away from him he might take a

chill maybe you're right I know you are

right Amigo you should be much more

[Music]

warm you get your Wagon in line Mr Terry

I want get out of here hold

on

no

cson what's the meaning of this oh I'm

having a little talk with this fell cut

him down ain't you forgetting General

he's m is I'm trying to remember that

you were a white man I wonder why I ever

thought you were anything else but a

[Music]

Savage his own calling I guess

ma'am General here fights cannon with

Cannon I fight fire with fire how dare

you compare yourself to an honorable

Soldier I want you to have a look at a

real

Savage don't worry he speaks your

language it's Lieutenant Ruiz is General

Castro's Army he can tell you where

those shash got them

rifles don't let the war pain fool you

General

talk you're a white man a brother

officer you're sworn to uphold the laws

of War I gon Indians to murder women and

children talk I was only carrying out

the orders of my Superior officer

General Castro whose orders General

Castro the military governor of

California my orders were to keep you

all of you from getting to California

why because General Castro is afraid of

americanos only the americanos can keep

him from sitting on the throne of the

AES from being emperor of all Mexico and

California I

see Lieutenant ree wherever those men go

the laws of the United States follow the

penalty for giving arms and ammunition

to Indians is death as you reminded me

it is my duty to enforce the

[Music]

law platon

and that's for men un saying

kby Dismount

no

[Music]

what

order

I'm

ready you can't I demand a

trial

Aim

Fire

[Music]

[Applause]

Howard what I don't reckon a fellow like

me could ever learn to do things like an

honorable

[Music]

Soldier I owe you an

apology I'm sorry I I didn't

understand

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

exactly due W

[Music]

sergeant

Ruiz was a bungling fool send the sh

needs more guns and

ammunition that's the line Lieutenant

continue due West yes

[Applause]

sir

General I still think it's a good idea

to skirt the mountain stay out of there

I wish I could agree with you Carson but

I must go this way 60 Mi farther go

around the mountain it might be a good

idea to save lives instead of

Miles these Hills are swarming with Shon

we're safer if we stay in the

open going that way it'd be plain

poison my orders to find the shortest

troop to

California soldiering would be an easy

job if you knew in advance there would

never be any danger

General I won't let the wagons go

through that pass

then I guess this is where we po

company I don't know much about orders

and things but I do know there's no way

out of that pass except the way you get

in I don't even like the smell of this

place it's a perfect

Ambush but it is the most direct route

to

California my job Carson is not to make

sure that John C Fremont and a troop of

Cavalry get to California it's to make

sure that in case of need an army can

follow now when an Army moves can't

afford to waste 60 mil because a captain

was afraid of trouble but Captain John

we've been together all the

way I'm sorry but Carson is right the

pass is no place for the

wagons

well look us up if you get them

allay perhaps I'll be waiting for

you Captain Freeman if we could help you

by going through with you no Terry I

can't tell you how we feel how grateful

we are but I can tell you this

when they write the history of the West

your name is going to stand out awfully

big you take good care of your husband

and when you get to California see that

he keeps that printing press running

night and

[Music]

[Applause]

day good

luck I don't know what to

say doesn't make much difference as long

as it isn't goodbye but I was hoping

that we'd all be together all the way

home will the last string still be out

better the door will be wide

[Music]

open good luck Green Grass and running

water roll them Mr Terry all right roll

[Music]

them I'm sure now the only difference

between a donkey and a soldier is a

uniform

coming in

and one col of D left cre

[Music]

oh all right let's

go

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

pap

[Music]

send half your braides to trap femont

and the other half to attack the wagon

[Music]

train

I'd feel a lot better if that Army

Fremont's always talking about was

following him right

[Music]

now

[Applause]

[Music]

Lieutenant take charge keep a sh look

[Music]

up

he's very quiet no yeah beats me ain't

soldier solders supposed to have courage

Courage different kinds of courage

gratitude you know I have a feeling that

that you couldn't expect the woman live

like that could you no you

make gentlemen out of our kind of

material kit Crossing you're the most

discouraging man I ever did know

[Music]

this

[Music]

somehow doesn't like Carson to leave

without even saying

[Music]

goodbye now that he has

gone makes it possible for me to ask you

something

[Music]

something I've I've wanted to say for a

long

time I couldn't until

now a long time ago back at Fort Bridger

I asked you if you could endure the

company of soldiers for 3

months now I'm asking you if you can

endure the company of one soldier the

rest of your

[Applause]

life Captain John you're you're the

finest most honorable most generous man

but one I've ever

known any woman in the world would be

proud and happy to share your life but I

I only want to share it with one

moment you want me to be honest don't

you of

course the man I love has just ridden

away to see about a line of traps and

isn't coming

back now if you still love me I'll do my

best to forget that there was ever

anyone but

[Music]

you I'll try to help you

[Music]

forget

Mexican Army wagons guns and ammunition

for

Castro that Castro is a mighty bad Ombre

with guns he don't like Americans like

us and the folks we just left maybe he's

going to use them guns to keep other

Americans out of

California yeah

maybe what's the matter I just want to

make sure I got my pencil that's all

come on

[Music]

easy

I reckon they ain't expecting

visitors sorry to bust in on you like

this General but it looks like you your

prisoner prisoner well who prisoner well

I can't say right all you are Americano

well I was born in Kentucky if that

helps you any for a moment I I thought

you might be from hen Al Castro but this

much better that you are

Americano get in there you no good coor

this

way I always know they sleep too much

your Carson you may not know it but you

have do me big favor for Santos heral

you act like you enjoyed to be prisoner

well why not henal Castro hate only one

thing more than the americanos me every

year I bring Supply train from meico to

the Garrison at montere this year I have

feeling heren Al Castro has decided I

have take my last trip so I am lucky to

be prisoner eh well well you don't have

to worry about Castro now General all

the way from Mexico I have worried about

my Americano friends why why because

General Castro will use the extra

ammunition for my wagon in his war

against the California americanos War

what war when's it going to start start

it has already started earlier tonight A

couro reached me from monre Castro is

already riding to destroy the outlying

Americano

asend I reckon we'll have to put off

seene about them traps I reckon we will

be sure you get these wagons to Captain

Fremont he'll know what to do with them

are you now going with us I'll be along

later all the Americans in California

ain't at the hen Murphy tonight and

somebody's got to warn them it looks

like you can't get the wagons to Captain

Freemont be sure nobody else gets him

Amigo come on General we got a long ride

ahead of

us

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

there's a certain Fascination about fire

Lieutenant the results are always so

[Music]

conclusive

yeah what do you want don't waste time

take your family and head for Murphy's

Castro is burning the American

[Music]

hosas CLE out fast Castro's on his way

to kill all Americans come on

[Music]

boy head for Murphy's house sien

Castro's burning everything inside come

on

boy come on General come on now get down

here my old fat

onion take it

easy see

there Captain Fremont this here is

General valo how do you do I am prisoner

I am happy to see you how do you do

General Belo me

amig how are you what are you doing here

for a long time now there's not room for

two henal in California it is much

better I am here whose idea is this

Carson's he figured a little extra shot

and ammunition might come in handy where

is Carson he's out warning the rest of

the Americans warning warning about what

about Castro being on his way to wipe

him out it's too bad we can't go into

this fight under the American flag all

of us know that California should be

part of the United States of America at

least we can fight and die if we have to

like free men well we can't fight under

the Mexican flag the very first shotly

fire would make us Rebels and outlaws

but we could make the Hender Murphy our

own country hoist our own flag over

it it's going to be a new flag gentlemen

without a stain upon it worth defending

and

we'll gentlemen gentlemen up to this

moment I've been trying to remember that

I'm an officer in the United States Army

on a peaceful mission in a country with

which the United States is at

peace but I can't forget that you and

your families are

Americans this is probably going to cost

me my career as an officer but I'm going

to place myself and my troops at your

disposal at the disposal of the

California

[Music]

republic

it's beautiful my

dear kid I've been following Castro

he'll be here by tomorrow

morning gentlemen this is the time for

us to show our

[Music]

colors

[Music]

I'd hate to think that Castro or anybody

else was big enough to haul that

down order

arms I on

[Music]

PCH it's a funny thing about Flags ma'am

every one I ever heard about was put

into the hands of men by a

woman why did you come back uh I guess

you'd call it unfinished business but

why did it have to be

today so

soon I'll reckon one day is pretty much

like

another

oh no it

isn't last night I said yes when Captain

John asked me to marry

[Music]

[Applause]

him I'm glad to hear that John Fremont

is mighty fine and and you deserve the

[Music]

best you probably feel quite at home now

kid California Republic just a place for

a while Mustang what are you boys aiming

to do why we're aiming to fight fight

your family's hanging on to your

coattail that won't be a fight gentleman

it'll be a massacre I reckon we can take

care of our families I had a good chance

to see what Castro's bringing with him

we'll be out number 10 to one to say

nothing of the artillery he's gotten you

haven't we've got to fight it out here

Canon or no Cannon you're playing right

into Castro's hands his plan is to catch

you all together in one place finish you

all at one time now if I was you the

first thing I'd do is to get the folks

that can't fight Plum out of here before

Castro arrives after the women and kids

are safe if I was you General I'd take

my soldiers and every Californian that

could ride a horse or fire a gun I'd

ride right out into the hills just far

enough so I could get back in a hurry

what abandon the Hender leave it

undefended fight cast on the open well

not exactly Mr Sutter I'd leave somebody

behind like me and ape and Lopez with a

lot of extra guns so we could make a lot

of

noise and with enough dummies around the

walls to make Castro think he had all

the Americans in California in one place

and then if I was you General I'd wait

till Castor was Plum certain he's going

to take the Henda and then I'd ride and

hit him from the rear like a herd of

stampeding buffalo but if your idea

doesn't work our wives and families

would be left out in the open at

Castro's Mercy well they won't be any

worse off in they are now and if

Carson's plan does work it means more

than just a defeat of Castro it means

the independence of the California

republic gentlemen if Kit Carson is

willing to sacrifice everything for us

why are we

[Music]

hesitating sure never figured we could

raise an army this easy oh that Castro

will he be surprised I feel more at home

for he's going to fight Shon oh what is

the difference so long it is a good

fight huh hey what does your your name

Soldier private Smith General Lopez

Winer when we have beat General Castro I

make you a

sergeant if I didn't know you boys only

had one chance in a million I'd think

you were going on a picnic we've been in

TI spots before you're not exactly going

on a picnic yourself I hope this isn't

that one spot you can't get out of

Carson well all I man has to do is keep

wiggling my boys and The Californians

will wait for your signal before we go

into action I reckon you'll be able to

hear

it don't take too many chances oh no

seor it is General Castro who take the

chances good luck AE same to you General

when

amigo oh kit I I guess there's still

time for you to take a walk with me to

the gate kind of see me

off Lieutenant come with me all right

come on baby

it wasn't like you causin to just ride

away like that without saying goodbye

you shouldn't have done it why because

she loves you I reckon you're wrong

seeing she's going to marry

you she isn't the kind of a girl that

could marry a man without loving him

they're different kinds of Love cin just

as they're different kinds of men the

kind of love I want from her she has for

no one but you it was a little different

when I thought you weren't coming back

coming back was kind of accidental

if you don't understand that she isn't

interested in what you have or how you

dress but what you are what you could be

and you aren't worthy of

her you're right

General that's the way I feel about

it but you're worthy of a

Johnny you were well born a

gentleman you know the right words to

say at the right time and the right

things to

do that's why I was mighty glad when she

told me she said yes to

you we've come a long way together John

it's no more than right that we feel the

same way about the same

thing there's more to it kit than just

us feeling the same thing we don't count

at least I don't she's the one that

counts when you love somebody enough the

thing you want to give most is

happiness it's

funny I was thinking the same thing when

I rode off without saying goodbye and

she can't have happiness if she loves

you and marries

me it'd be a big disappointment to me

General if you can't take care of a

happiness soon as this is all over I

reckon I better just keep on

riding Castro's forces just crossed the

river they're coming down through the

West Canyon very good thank you thank

you well right now I'll do the riding

here's hoping we can both wiggle out of

this goodbye

kid goodbye

[Music]

John I am glad to know that I will find

my wagons and Vallejo at the asend of

Murphy it'll save me the trouble of

hunting him
