1
00:00:51,718 --> 00:00:55,055
I was born Roxanna Stanton
in Tarboro, North Carolina,
2
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,100
when tobacco was king.
3
00:01:00,143 --> 00:01:01,687
During market time,
4
00:01:01,687 --> 00:01:05,732
the warehouses were full of
cured, bright-leafed tobacco,
5
00:01:05,732 --> 00:01:09,778
and any little breeze would
fan that sweet, strong smell,
6
00:01:09,778 --> 00:01:12,281
and seal it over the center
of town like a jar lid.
7
00:01:15,534 --> 00:01:17,953
Daddy owned the funeral home.
8
00:01:17,953 --> 00:01:22,124
He used to say, "There's two
things for sure in Tar County."
9
00:01:22,124 --> 00:01:23,875
"Tobacco brings
money and people die."
10
00:01:43,979 --> 00:01:45,939
When I married Aaron Walston,
11
00:01:45,939 --> 00:01:47,941
we moved out to
his tobacco farm.
12
00:01:47,941 --> 00:01:49,735
It was about ten miles
outside of Tarboro.
13
00:01:50,777 --> 00:01:52,654
And I have to say,
14
00:01:52,654 --> 00:01:55,532
the isolation of that little farm
was something I had not known before.
15
00:01:58,744 --> 00:02:02,581
By the time I was 20, our
baby, Patty Estelle, was two.
16
00:02:02,581 --> 00:02:04,625
And we worked hard getting
that crop out every year.
17
00:02:07,961 --> 00:02:11,715
I didn't think much about whether
there would be anything else for me.
18
00:02:11,715 --> 00:02:16,053
But then, the summer of 1937
changed my life forever.
19
00:02:16,053 --> 00:02:20,223
At that time, I didn't understand
all the things that happened,
20
00:02:20,223 --> 00:02:21,558
but I knew they
were irrevocable.
21
00:03:32,295 --> 00:03:34,089
When my grandmother,
Georgeanna, died,
22
00:03:35,590 --> 00:03:38,260
I was as lonely as I
ever'd been in my life.
23
00:03:40,053 --> 00:03:43,348
Georgeanna had raised me
ever since my mother died.
24
00:04:03,702 --> 00:04:04,870
Sorry about your grandmother.
25
00:04:06,621 --> 00:04:07,622
Thank you.
26
00:04:11,918 --> 00:04:13,462
Are you gonna stay at her house?
27
00:04:15,714 --> 00:04:17,507
No. I'm scared to
stay there by myself.
28
00:04:21,636 --> 00:04:23,221
Well, what about
livin' at your daddy's?
29
00:04:25,557 --> 00:04:27,476
His wife, Ruth,
30
00:04:27,476 --> 00:04:29,060
is my mother's younger sister.
31
00:04:29,644 --> 00:04:30,645
I know.
32
00:04:33,064 --> 00:04:34,566
Well, I feel kind
of funny about that.
33
00:05:09,184 --> 00:05:11,978
What are you doin'?
Is Baby asleep?
34
00:05:11,978 --> 00:05:13,313
Yeah, Baby's asleep.
35
00:05:19,903 --> 00:05:22,739
I wanted to last night and
you just shrugged me off.
36
00:05:22,739 --> 00:05:24,282
I had to get up at the
crack of dawn.
37
00:05:27,786 --> 00:05:28,787
Aaron...
38
00:05:29,996 --> 00:05:31,790
Sometimes I think
you're just doin' this,
39
00:05:31,790 --> 00:05:34,376
'cause you can't think
of anything better to do.
40
00:06:17,085 --> 00:06:20,338
Daddy hired boys from
all over eastern North Carolina
41
00:06:20,380 --> 00:06:22,883
to work at the funeral home.
42
00:06:22,883 --> 00:06:25,510
When his friends couldn't think
of what to do with their boys
43
00:06:25,510 --> 00:06:26,970
they sent 'em to
Mr. Will for a job.
44
00:06:30,765 --> 00:06:32,517
What do you say, boys?
Good mornin', Will.
45
00:06:37,814 --> 00:06:39,774
I got that Clark Gable
picture at the theater.
46
00:06:41,234 --> 00:06:42,903
Where he don't
wear no undershirt?
47
00:06:44,529 --> 00:06:46,781
- You won't see that one, will ya, Will?
- No.
48
00:06:46,781 --> 00:06:48,950
How do you expect me
to keep the theater running?
49
00:07:06,426 --> 00:07:09,471
Here comes a fella lookin' for a job, Will.
What you wanna bet?
50
00:07:10,931 --> 00:07:13,099
No, I got too many boys
here now, Strother.
51
00:07:14,100 --> 00:07:15,393
Don't matter.
52
00:07:15,435 --> 00:07:17,729
They know ya all over
eastern North Carolina
53
00:07:17,729 --> 00:07:19,105
for havin' a soft heart.
54
00:07:20,899 --> 00:07:24,444
I don't have any work, and
room upstairs is plumb-full.
55
00:07:38,333 --> 00:07:40,877
He ain't from Tar County.
56
00:07:40,877 --> 00:07:43,046
I bet you he's a walk-away
from the CCC Camp.
57
00:07:50,136 --> 00:07:51,638
I'm looking for Mr. Will.
58
00:07:53,014 --> 00:07:54,015
Ask inside.
59
00:07:55,100 --> 00:07:56,101
I don't work here.
60
00:07:59,729 --> 00:08:00,730
Thank you.
61
00:08:14,285 --> 00:08:15,286
What are you doin'?
62
00:08:16,371 --> 00:08:17,747
Just waitin' here like
you told me.
63
00:08:48,695 --> 00:08:50,155
Aaron!
64
00:08:50,155 --> 00:08:51,156
Your folks are here.
65
00:08:58,204 --> 00:08:59,789
Hello, Mr. Ta tie.
66
00:08:59,789 --> 00:09:02,000
Hi there, Roxy. Aaron.
67
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,086
We're gonna ride over to,
uh, Eureka, see Aunt Sally.
68
00:09:05,086 --> 00:09:07,589
Thought some of y'all might want
a ride back to Tarboro with us.
69
00:09:07,589 --> 00:09:09,466
I believe I'll just stay here.
70
00:09:09,466 --> 00:09:11,426
I got my new seedlings
just getting started.
71
00:09:11,426 --> 00:09:12,427
But y'all come in.
72
00:09:14,471 --> 00:09:15,930
Roxy why don't you
and Baby go on in?
73
00:09:16,765 --> 00:09:17,766
Maybe we'll do that.
74
00:09:32,655 --> 00:09:33,948
There's your grandpa over there.
75
00:09:36,409 --> 00:09:37,410
There's your grandma.
76
00:09:39,537 --> 00:09:40,538
Yeah.
77
00:09:45,794 --> 00:09:48,213
Baby, you look like
a cat under a collard.
78
00:10:16,366 --> 00:10:17,784
Well, look who's here!
79
00:10:19,119 --> 00:10:20,703
We're just waitin'
for your daddy.
80
00:10:20,703 --> 00:10:21,704
Come here, Baby.
81
00:10:22,580 --> 00:10:24,457
Come here.
82
00:10:24,457 --> 00:10:26,209
We're just waitin'
for your daddy.
83
00:10:26,209 --> 00:10:28,419
There was a wreck out at
the crossroads last night,
84
00:10:28,419 --> 00:10:29,838
and he had to stop by.
85
00:10:29,838 --> 00:10:32,549
Come on, Roxy. I have something
important to tell ya, come on!
86
00:10:32,549 --> 00:10:33,967
What? It's important, come on.
87
00:10:39,931 --> 00:10:41,724
I grew up playing
in the backyard there.
88
00:10:44,060 --> 00:10:46,563
So what happened to the
coffin for the Mr. Master doll?
89
00:10:46,563 --> 00:10:47,939
Well, we haven't
played in those coffins
90
00:10:47,939 --> 00:10:49,732
since Raider tried to
sail off the top.
91
00:10:49,732 --> 00:10:51,151
He did?
92
00:10:51,151 --> 00:10:53,361
- Daddy's gonna have him hauled away.
- Aw.
93
00:10:53,361 --> 00:10:55,822
I had copied the design
for my playhouse
94
00:10:55,822 --> 00:10:57,866
out of my weekly reader.
95
00:10:57,866 --> 00:11:00,702
And then built it
out of old coffins.
96
00:11:00,702 --> 00:11:03,621
Main thing my friends at
school wanted to know was,
97
00:11:03,663 --> 00:11:05,290
had I ever seen anybody dead?
98
00:11:06,541 --> 00:11:08,459
- Boo!
- Raider!
99
00:11:09,169 --> 00:11:10,170
Hey you.
100
00:11:11,963 --> 00:11:15,466
Callie and me finally
saw a dead person.
101
00:11:15,466 --> 00:11:17,719
We heard at school
this man that got burned up
102
00:11:17,719 --> 00:11:19,637
that they had him down here.
103
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,056
We pushed the door
open real fast,
104
00:11:22,056 --> 00:11:24,350
there was this little thing
lying up on the table
105
00:11:24,350 --> 00:11:26,644
like a log out of the fireplace.
106
00:11:26,686 --> 00:11:29,147
We went flying up to
the front of the house,
107
00:11:29,147 --> 00:11:32,525
and then saw somebody sitting
on the stairs watching us.
108
00:11:32,525 --> 00:11:34,861
He wasn't like the other
funeral home boys.
109
00:11:34,861 --> 00:11:37,197
He said, "You must
be Mr. Will's girl."
110
00:11:37,197 --> 00:11:41,242
I told him I was his littlest girl.
Roxy is his biggest girl.
111
00:11:41,242 --> 00:11:43,953
He said, "If she's any prettier
than you, she must be real pretty."
112
00:11:47,123 --> 00:11:49,083
I couldn't believe
I was standing there
113
00:11:49,083 --> 00:11:50,877
talking to a grown
man like that.
114
00:11:54,547 --> 00:11:56,299
Who you got in there, Will?
115
00:11:56,299 --> 00:11:58,676
Old Fate Renfroe.
You remember him?
116
00:11:58,718 --> 00:12:00,678
Poor old fella. He got hit,
117
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,681
broadside with a freight train
over here at the Golden Weed.
118
00:12:04,390 --> 00:12:05,892
Tear him up much?
119
00:12:05,892 --> 00:12:06,893
Oh, yeah, he looks bad.
120
00:12:08,019 --> 00:12:09,812
And I worked on
him near all night,
121
00:12:09,812 --> 00:12:11,189
that boy, Jack, came
in and helped me.
122
00:12:11,189 --> 00:12:12,774
He's good.
123
00:12:12,774 --> 00:12:14,859
With his hands, you know?
124
00:12:14,859 --> 00:12:17,528
He's cool about it too.
He was eatin' a...
125
00:12:17,528 --> 00:12:19,614
Bit-O-Honey bar
10 minutes after we quit.
126
00:12:21,449 --> 00:12:22,825
You gonna keep him?
127
00:12:22,825 --> 00:12:24,869
Oh, I can't.
I can't, Strother, I...
128
00:12:26,579 --> 00:12:28,373
He'd be a natural, you know...
129
00:12:28,373 --> 00:12:31,376
A real natural but, you know, I
got too many boys workin' here now.
130
00:12:33,253 --> 00:12:34,545
Jack's a right smart fellow.
131
00:12:34,545 --> 00:12:36,005
He, he reminds me
of somebody, but...
132
00:12:37,215 --> 00:12:38,299
I can't think who.
133
00:12:45,181 --> 00:12:47,392
What the hell?
134
00:12:47,392 --> 00:12:48,935
It's just Renfroe,
giving you a goodbye.
135
00:12:53,022 --> 00:12:55,900
What's he doin'
sneaking up on me like that?
136
00:12:55,900 --> 00:12:57,986
What's he doin' over there?
137
00:12:57,986 --> 00:13:00,280
Go on, you shaggy-headed rascal.
138
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:01,614
Go on!
139
00:13:01,614 --> 00:13:03,908
If you think you can get past
them gals down at the hotel.
140
00:13:05,994 --> 00:13:08,997
- That boy's a...
- Roxy!
141
00:13:08,997 --> 00:13:11,291
I believe you could use dose
of Mr. Applewhite's Capudine.
142
00:13:11,291 --> 00:13:13,751
You always look like you'd be
afraid to say "Boo!" to a goose.
143
00:13:29,267 --> 00:13:31,477
Two weeks later,
in the middle of March,
144
00:13:31,477 --> 00:13:33,229
the old hearse
pulled up our drive.
145
00:13:35,315 --> 00:13:37,275
At first, I thought it was
Daddy comin' to see me.
146
00:13:38,776 --> 00:13:40,028
But it was Jack Ruff in.
147
00:13:53,624 --> 00:13:54,709
I'm Jack Ruff in. Hey.
148
00:13:56,419 --> 00:13:57,420
Wanna draw?
149
00:13:58,004 --> 00:13:59,005
What do you want?
150
00:14:00,340 --> 00:14:03,384
I'm sorry. I thought
you knew I was coming out.
151
00:14:03,384 --> 00:14:05,887
All I know is you're somebody
I've never seen before in my life.
152
00:14:12,643 --> 00:14:15,104
Well, Mrs. Walston,
153
00:14:15,104 --> 00:14:16,939
if your husband didn't
tell ya, I guess I will.
154
00:14:19,650 --> 00:14:20,693
I've come to help out.
155
00:14:22,445 --> 00:14:23,738
Your daddy run the funeral home?
156
00:14:26,074 --> 00:14:27,075
Mr. Will Stanton?
157
00:14:30,119 --> 00:14:31,496
He's the one who
sent me over here.
158
00:14:34,582 --> 00:14:35,917
That was Neb just
dropped me off.
159
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,063
Mr. Will said you might be
able to use some help out here.
160
00:14:57,772 --> 00:14:59,524
That's right, I sure could.
161
00:15:00,191 --> 00:15:01,192
Come on.
162
00:15:11,994 --> 00:15:13,746
I had seen
Jack Ruff in before.
163
00:15:15,915 --> 00:15:17,125
He was with Georgeanna,
164
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:19,961
in a dream.
165
00:15:46,529 --> 00:15:47,530
Roxy?
166
00:15:52,118 --> 00:15:54,454
I'm driving Jack back to town.
167
00:15:54,454 --> 00:15:55,705
But supper will be ready soon.
168
00:15:56,622 --> 00:15:57,623
I'll be back soon.
169
00:16:30,948 --> 00:16:32,742
Well, dinner's not
fit to eat now.
170
00:16:34,243 --> 00:16:35,411
Don't worry about it.
171
00:16:35,411 --> 00:16:36,746
I got me a hot dog in town.
172
00:16:43,127 --> 00:16:44,670
Jack Ruff in's coming
out next Saturday.
173
00:16:46,297 --> 00:16:47,840
Why don't you cook
us up a chicken stew?
174
00:16:48,841 --> 00:16:50,510
Chicken stew?
175
00:16:50,510 --> 00:16:52,803
When did you get to know
this Jack Ruff in so good?
176
00:16:52,803 --> 00:16:54,472
Fixing the well.
177
00:16:54,472 --> 00:16:55,973
We're gonna check on it Saturday
178
00:16:56,015 --> 00:16:58,518
and he's bringing his guitar out,
we're gonna pick a few songs.
179
00:17:00,770 --> 00:17:02,104
Well...
180
00:17:02,104 --> 00:17:03,606
You hardly ever see a soul.
181
00:17:05,399 --> 00:17:07,485
I didn't know you knew him.
182
00:17:07,485 --> 00:17:09,195
Well, I didn't know him
before this mornin'.
183
00:17:11,405 --> 00:17:12,698
He gave me this mandolin string.
184
00:17:14,492 --> 00:17:16,786
Had it right there in his suitcase.
He just gave it to me.
185
00:17:33,719 --> 00:17:37,265
The wind was blowing hard
the night Jack came for dinner.
186
00:17:37,265 --> 00:17:41,894
And I couldn't help thinking
about Georgeanna's superstitions.
187
00:17:41,894 --> 00:17:44,855
You know, every time somethin' bad's
happened to me in my life,
188
00:17:45,856 --> 00:17:47,525
it's happened to me
in the month of March.
189
00:17:49,151 --> 00:17:52,280
It's like a big, black
cloud that just hangs there.
190
00:17:57,952 --> 00:17:59,287
There's somethin' in the wind.
191
00:18:12,675 --> 00:18:14,260
Aaron?
192
00:18:24,812 --> 00:18:25,938
- Hey.
- Hey.
193
00:18:25,938 --> 00:18:27,064
How are you? Real good.
194
00:18:37,283 --> 00:18:38,659
So, how do you
like North Carolina?
195
00:18:39,702 --> 00:18:40,703
I like it.
196
00:18:48,836 --> 00:18:51,380
Well, how many boys does
Mr. Will have over there now?
197
00:18:52,548 --> 00:18:53,549
Too many.
198
00:18:56,969 --> 00:18:58,596
It must be pretty stuffy in that...
199
00:18:58,596 --> 00:18:59,597
Hmm.
200
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:01,849
Excuse me. Watch your fingers.
201
00:19:02,183 --> 00:19:03,184
Excuse me.
202
00:19:10,858 --> 00:19:11,859
What's your baby's name?
203
00:19:12,735 --> 00:19:14,278
It's Patty Estelle.
204
00:19:14,278 --> 00:19:15,696
But everybody just
calls her "Baby."
205
00:19:17,365 --> 00:19:19,033
Except Aaron's mother, Estelle.
206
00:19:19,033 --> 00:19:22,286
She calls her "Es-telle," like
every syllable's just nailed down.
207
00:19:26,749 --> 00:19:27,750
Mom!
208
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,001
Excuse me.
209
00:19:34,423 --> 00:19:35,758
This is good.
210
00:19:35,758 --> 00:19:36,759
This is really good.
211
00:19:38,552 --> 00:19:42,181
Here, here. Have some more.
We got a lot.
212
00:19:51,982 --> 00:19:52,983
Hey, Jack!
213
00:20:00,241 --> 00:20:02,702
Hey, can you, uh, plan
on coming out tonight?
214
00:20:02,702 --> 00:20:05,496
Yeah. Just got me some
new strings this morning.
215
00:20:05,496 --> 00:20:07,623
Listen, Neb wanted to
come out, if that's okay.
216
00:20:09,083 --> 00:20:10,084
Well, uh...
217
00:20:11,419 --> 00:20:13,129
I don't want it to turn
into a get-together.
218
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,258
Okay.
219
00:20:17,258 --> 00:20:18,259
I'll see you tonight.
220
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,477
Nah, I can't talk to you
about this stuff.
221
00:21:09,477 --> 00:21:11,228
You're a married man
with a family to boot.
222
00:21:12,897 --> 00:21:15,649
Besides, you don't want to
hear about my date with Ava.
223
00:21:15,649 --> 00:21:17,693
I got news for you, Jack.
224
00:21:17,693 --> 00:21:19,904
Me and Ava Chisholm went
steady in eighth grade.
225
00:21:19,904 --> 00:21:21,030
Is that so?
226
00:21:22,907 --> 00:21:26,494
In fact, I'll never forget
one Saturday afternoon,
227
00:21:26,494 --> 00:21:28,120
Ava and I were over
at her sister's house.
228
00:21:30,539 --> 00:21:31,707
I was sittin' on the couch...
229
00:21:32,875 --> 00:21:33,959
Ava had her head in my lap.
230
00:21:35,377 --> 00:21:37,505
All of a sudden,
she shifts around,
231
00:21:37,505 --> 00:21:40,508
she says, "Aaron, your belt
buckle's hittin' me in the head."
232
00:21:40,508 --> 00:21:42,051
I said "Ava, I'm not
wearin' a belt."
233
00:21:43,594 --> 00:21:45,012
Her sister looked
at me real embarrassed.
234
00:21:45,012 --> 00:21:46,472
I don't think Ava knew
what was going on.
235
00:21:54,605 --> 00:21:56,106
So where did you day
your parents are?
236
00:21:57,775 --> 00:21:59,068
My parents are dead.
237
00:21:59,068 --> 00:22:00,986
I'm sorry.
238
00:22:00,986 --> 00:22:02,905
It's all right.
It was a long time ago.
239
00:22:02,905 --> 00:22:04,198
Well, I made you
all a pecan pie.
240
00:22:05,908 --> 00:22:07,117
We'll be up there in a minute.
241
00:22:10,704 --> 00:22:11,705
Come on, Baby.
242
00:22:13,165 --> 00:22:15,417
Let's go. Yeah.
243
00:22:38,232 --> 00:22:41,443
Whoa! Hello, Jack.
Um, Aaron's not here right now.
244
00:22:54,832 --> 00:22:55,833
Pretty.
245
00:23:11,390 --> 00:23:12,850
Hi, Aaron.
Some weather, huh?
246
00:23:15,019 --> 00:23:16,896
Yep.
247
00:23:16,896 --> 00:23:19,356
How's this gonna be
for the seedlings?
248
00:23:19,398 --> 00:23:22,359
This is perfect. That's what this is.
This is perfect for the seedlings.
249
00:23:29,408 --> 00:23:31,619
You know how muddy
the roads will be.
250
00:23:31,619 --> 00:23:33,412
I don't know why you
just don't stay out here.
251
00:23:36,498 --> 00:23:38,500
You can just make yourself
a bed in the spare room.
252
00:24:25,589 --> 00:24:28,801
I guess it would be a lot easier
if I was just eta yin' out here.
253
00:24:28,801 --> 00:24:30,761
Why don't you bring your
clothes and things on out?
254
00:24:30,761 --> 00:24:31,971
You know I could use the help.
255
00:24:32,471 --> 00:24:34,390
I know you could.
256
00:24:34,390 --> 00:24:36,684
I'll tell Neb to bring
my things out now and just...
257
00:24:36,976 --> 00:24:38,102
Not go back.
258
00:24:38,102 --> 00:24:39,311
As soon as it quits rainin',
259
00:24:39,311 --> 00:24:40,437
we'll have plenty to do then.
260
00:24:42,481 --> 00:24:44,858
Roxy, why don't you
clean out that chifforobe
261
00:24:44,858 --> 00:24:47,903
in the spare room so Jack
can put his things in it.
262
00:24:47,903 --> 00:24:49,697
She's only got her sew in"
stuff in there now.
263
00:25:03,377 --> 00:25:04,378
Okay.
264
00:25:06,255 --> 00:25:07,256
Turn it in.
265
00:25:16,682 --> 00:25:17,683
Lower it down.
266
00:25:35,784 --> 00:25:37,244
We might as well
get on to bed early.
267
00:25:38,954 --> 00:25:41,498
We're gonna need this rest
when it comes time to prime.
268
00:25:47,921 --> 00:25:49,715
Soon as that sun ever
comes back out,
269
00:25:49,715 --> 00:25:51,300
it'll get to grow in" real fast.
270
00:25:58,932 --> 00:25:59,933
It's quit raining.
271
00:26:21,830 --> 00:26:22,831
Come on in.
272
00:26:30,214 --> 00:26:31,215
Quit raining.
273
00:26:32,257 --> 00:26:33,258
Yeah, it sure did.
274
00:26:40,099 --> 00:26:41,892
Well... I guess I'll get
on back to town, now.
275
00:26:42,601 --> 00:26:43,602
See ya. See ya.
276
00:26:48,607 --> 00:26:49,608
See you in the morning.
277
00:26:51,610 --> 00:26:52,611
See you in the morning.
278
00:27:39,116 --> 00:27:40,117
Phew!
279
00:27:48,375 --> 00:27:50,878
You wanna pick a little tonight?
280
00:27:50,878 --> 00:27:52,671
Nah, I think we're gonna
go on to bed early.
281
00:27:54,089 --> 00:27:55,757
But you know where the keys are.
282
00:27:55,757 --> 00:27:57,050
I mean, if you need
the truck to go in
283
00:27:57,050 --> 00:27:58,468
and see Ava or
anything like that,
284
00:27:58,468 --> 00:27:59,845
you go ahead and use it.
285
00:28:56,944 --> 00:28:58,111
Neb came by last night.
286
00:28:58,111 --> 00:28:59,112
Uh-huh.
287
00:29:01,323 --> 00:29:03,575
Needed some help with a wreck
out by Johnson Crossroads.
288
00:29:05,452 --> 00:29:06,954
Old preacher
and his wife swerved
289
00:29:06,954 --> 00:29:08,080
in a ditch, hurt pretty bad.
290
00:30:34,207 --> 00:30:36,626
Roxy,
291
00:30:36,626 --> 00:30:38,337
Ray says, Daddy needs
me to come over
292
00:30:38,337 --> 00:30:40,088
to help him start to
fix that back fence.
293
00:30:41,131 --> 00:30:43,133
Horses go out again last night.
294
00:30:43,133 --> 00:30:44,926
I gotta get over there.
295
00:30:44,926 --> 00:30:47,721
Sorry, I can't watch Baby today.
296
00:30:47,721 --> 00:30:49,598
Well, do you think you
can take Baby to Daddy's?
297
00:30:50,932 --> 00:30:51,975
Yeah, I can do that.
298
00:30:55,896 --> 00:30:57,022
Come on, pretty Baby.
299
00:30:58,648 --> 00:31:00,025
You're gonna go see Callie.
300
00:31:02,319 --> 00:31:03,904
Here you go, Baby.
301
00:31:03,904 --> 00:31:06,323
You wanna go for a ride
in that big black car?
302
00:31:06,323 --> 00:31:07,324
That's where we're goin'.
303
00:31:07,824 --> 00:31:08,825
Bye.
304
00:31:16,958 --> 00:31:18,919
Why don't you get
that hot hair cut off?
305
00:31:49,991 --> 00:31:50,992
Roxy.
306
00:31:55,956 --> 00:31:57,457
I thought you were
halfway to Raleigh.
307
00:33:01,271 --> 00:33:05,233
I just wanna say that I appreciate
every one of y'all out here.
308
00:33:05,233 --> 00:33:07,277
I have a real good feelin'
about the crop this year.
309
00:33:08,403 --> 00:33:10,614
Treat every leaf as special.
310
00:33:10,614 --> 00:33:12,616
Don't let the littlest
leaf burn up in the sun.
311
00:33:12,616 --> 00:33:13,617
We gotta eat.
312
00:33:38,016 --> 00:33:39,976
Roxy's got fudge!
313
00:34:21,393 --> 00:34:25,105

Here you go, Jack.
324
00:35:23,580 --> 00:35:25,665
You don't get much sleep
with tobacco curing, do you?
325
00:35:26,750 --> 00:35:27,751
Can't afford it.
326
00:35:29,127 --> 00:35:31,004
Two years ago
I lost my best barn.
327
00:35:31,588 --> 00:35:32,589
Burned up.
328
00:35:35,175 --> 00:35:36,926
Well, you want me to
stay down here tonight?
329
00:35:38,261 --> 00:35:39,554
No, I'll stay down here tonight.
330
00:35:40,597 --> 00:35:42,140
You stay down here
tomorrow night, okay?
331
00:37:59,652 --> 00:38:01,237
Honey,
332
00:38:01,237 --> 00:38:03,072
you have to
move a little faster.
333
00:38:04,908 --> 00:38:06,451
You're movin'
like you're sleepwalkin'.
334
00:38:13,708 --> 00:38:15,460
Whoa!
335
00:38:42,987 --> 00:38:45,865
- Oh, boy.
- Raider, you been fishin' lately?
336
00:38:45,865 --> 00:38:48,117
- Not much.
-You wanna pass me some
more of those string beans?
337
00:38:53,623 --> 00:38:55,333
Has your roof got a
hole in it, Raider?
338
00:38:55,917 --> 00:38:57,335
Gonna need patching?
339
00:38:59,170 --> 00:39:00,463
Well, let's get back, boys.
340
00:39:04,175 --> 00:39:06,219
I think it's fixin' to get
real warm this afternoon.
341
00:39:06,219 --> 00:39:08,429
Sure is. Listen, we ought
to get those mules first.
342
00:39:09,639 --> 00:39:11,099
Okay, they're gonna
need some water.
343
00:40:44,984 --> 00:40:47,570
I think we ought to get on over
to Haws Landing for that barbecue.
344
00:40:52,075 --> 00:40:54,619
You know, the only reason I didn't
go sit up with 'em last night
345
00:40:54,619 --> 00:40:55,995
to help 'em cook that pig was...
346
00:40:58,498 --> 00:41:00,333
That's my best barn
curio' out there.
347
00:41:01,084 --> 00:41:02,210
I just wanted to see it.
348
00:41:05,922 --> 00:41:07,507
I just don't care
a thing about goin'.
349
00:41:08,299 --> 00:41:09,300
Not go?
350
00:41:10,885 --> 00:41:11,886
I don't see why.
351
00:41:14,889 --> 00:41:15,890
I'm just not goin'.
352
00:41:19,769 --> 00:41:21,270
I feel like I'm in
the way over there.
353
00:41:23,648 --> 00:41:24,649
Now, Roxy,
354
00:41:25,692 --> 00:41:28,111
you know my family
thinks so much of you.
355
00:41:29,278 --> 00:41:30,530
And they love to see Baby.
356
00:41:32,824 --> 00:41:33,825
Aaron,
357
00:41:35,785 --> 00:41:37,954
there's somethin' about
the Fourth of July
358
00:41:37,954 --> 00:41:39,914
that just tears my
nerves all to pieces.
359
00:41:41,582 --> 00:41:43,584
It's all those loud noises and
360
00:41:43,584 --> 00:41:46,212
firecrackers and all. And...
361
00:41:46,212 --> 00:41:49,674
Those folks drivin' around in
those fast pickup trucks, drunk!
362
00:41:52,927 --> 00:41:54,554
Look, it's just too hot.
363
00:41:54,554 --> 00:41:55,680
And everybody's crazy.
364
00:41:59,350 --> 00:42:00,518
They're expectin' us, Roxy.
365
00:42:04,856 --> 00:42:05,857
No.
366
00:42:08,484 --> 00:42:10,153
Excuse me. I can't hear you. No.
367
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:17,577
Well, you do
what you please, then.
368
00:43:25,895 --> 00:43:27,271
Long life line,
369
00:43:28,856 --> 00:43:31,150
long crooked double love line.
370
00:43:52,380 --> 00:43:54,674
I got you a present. Hmm.
371
00:43:54,674 --> 00:43:56,801
Okay. Can you just
wait a minute?
372
00:43:56,801 --> 00:43:59,762
Mmm-hmm. I gotta change Baby.
373
00:43:59,762 --> 00:44:01,639
I'm sure her diaper's
about ready to fall off.
374
00:44:02,181 --> 00:44:03,182
Please.
375
00:44:04,684 --> 00:44:06,477
Just a second. Okay?
376
00:44:12,024 --> 00:44:13,025
Now.
377
00:44:19,323 --> 00:44:20,783
That's Mom. Momma.
378
00:44:24,579 --> 00:44:28,207
That's good. That was good.
Okay, Baby.
379
00:44:28,207 --> 00:44:30,042
Now, then, you wanna take
a picture of me and Baby?
380
00:44:30,042 --> 00:44:31,627
No. Now, we're gonna
try a little trick.
381
00:44:43,973 --> 00:44:44,974
Stay right there.
382
00:44:46,517 --> 00:44:47,518
Mom.
383
00:44:48,895 --> 00:44:51,522
What's the matter? Mom.
384
00:45:15,087 --> 00:45:16,088
Whoa!
385
00:45:21,928 --> 00:45:24,096
You ready? This is going
to be some picture.
386
00:45:39,904 --> 00:45:40,905
Baby!
387
00:45:41,405 --> 00:45:42,698
Jack! Help!
388
00:45:43,991 --> 00:45:44,992
I'll get the truck.
389
00:46:04,220 --> 00:46:06,847
I was cookin' some peas, and
Baby turned 'em over on herself.
390
00:46:07,431 --> 00:46:08,724
Where is she?
391
00:46:08,766 --> 00:46:10,268
She's with the doctor.
392
00:46:19,402 --> 00:46:20,403
Hello, Doctor.
393
00:46:22,571 --> 00:46:23,572
You can take her home now.
394
00:46:23,572 --> 00:46:24,657
Okay.
395
00:46:24,657 --> 00:46:25,783
Keep her quiet.
396
00:46:26,409 --> 00:46:28,077
And keep her in bed.
397
00:46:28,077 --> 00:46:30,663
Oh, and if she should
happen to wake up tonight,
398
00:46:30,663 --> 00:46:32,748
you might rub her
with some more of this.
399
00:46:32,790 --> 00:46:34,750
Okay.
400
00:46:34,792 --> 00:46:37,169
I'll come out and, uh,
check on her in the morning,
401
00:46:37,169 --> 00:46:38,170
see how she's getting on.
402
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:41,215
Are there gonna be scars?
403
00:46:42,675 --> 00:46:43,843
Probably. Yes.
404
00:46:50,850 --> 00:46:51,851
How's Baby?
405
00:46:55,896 --> 00:46:57,023
Where's the Kodak?
406
00:46:57,606 --> 00:46:58,607
I hid it.
407
00:47:19,545 --> 00:47:21,505
Aaron, where's...
408
00:47:24,508 --> 00:47:26,218
Can't you take care
of your own family?
409
00:47:29,513 --> 00:47:30,681
Let me take her.
410
00:47:58,334 --> 00:47:59,919
Okay, is it better, Baby?
411
00:47:59,919 --> 00:48:00,920
Is it better?
412
00:48:27,988 --> 00:48:28,989
Roxy?
413
00:48:31,450 --> 00:48:33,577
There's somethin' Daddy wants
me to talk to you about.
414
00:48:37,540 --> 00:48:39,917
Daddy mentioned somethin'
about Jack eta yin' here.
415
00:48:42,711 --> 00:48:44,004
It might be better...
416
00:48:46,549 --> 00:48:49,510
He said we ought to get
the first 'bacco to market,
417
00:48:49,510 --> 00:48:51,303
and then give him some
money and send him off.
418
00:48:53,514 --> 00:48:54,515
I've already told him.
419
00:48:56,684 --> 00:48:58,644
I told Jack that
420
00:48:58,644 --> 00:49:01,021
after the opening sale we'll
be able to manage without him.
421
00:49:03,190 --> 00:49:04,316
Why don't you tell him, too?
422
00:49:09,405 --> 00:49:11,782
Somebody at the church
mentioned to the folks that
423
00:49:11,782 --> 00:49:14,326
it didn't look right with you and
Jack eta yin' in the same house.
424
00:49:22,626 --> 00:49:23,627
Talk to Jack about it.
425
00:49:41,854 --> 00:49:43,606
Jack!
426
00:49:50,154 --> 00:49:51,197
Jack, I've got to talk to you.
427
00:49:51,197 --> 00:49:53,324
Shh. Shh.
I've gotta talk to you.
428
00:49:53,324 --> 00:49:55,367
I've gotta... I've
gotta talk to you, Jack.
429
00:49:55,367 --> 00:49:56,368
I've gotta talk to you.
430
00:50:02,791 --> 00:50:03,792
I love you, Roxy.
431
00:50:06,295 --> 00:50:07,546
You're prettier than any Ava.
432
00:50:12,301 --> 00:50:13,302
Don't worry.
433
00:50:14,303 --> 00:50:15,638
He's not comin' down here.
434
00:50:34,657 --> 00:50:37,034
I came down here to tell you.
Jack, you have to go.
435
00:50:40,704 --> 00:50:42,289
I'm married.
436
00:50:42,289 --> 00:50:43,290
I have a baby.
437
00:50:45,125 --> 00:50:46,877
You could run off with me.
438
00:50:46,877 --> 00:50:48,128
I'm married, Jack.
439
00:51:07,565 --> 00:51:08,607
Did you talk to Jack?
440
00:51:10,317 --> 00:51:11,318
Yes.
441
00:51:20,911 --> 00:51:22,037
$5!
442
00:51:25,708 --> 00:51:26,834
$5!
443
00:51:30,504 --> 00:51:31,505
$7!
444
00:51:34,842 --> 00:51:36,051
How're they biddin'?
445
00:51:36,051 --> 00:51:37,261
They're biddin' a little low.
446
00:51:37,261 --> 00:51:38,512
Yeah, I heard that.
447
00:51:38,512 --> 00:51:39,430
They'll pick up.
448
00:51:39,430 --> 00:51:40,639
$4!
449
00:51:40,639 --> 00:51:41,640
They better.
450
00:51:43,934 --> 00:51:45,894
Sta yin' out of trouble, Jack?
451
00:51:45,894 --> 00:51:47,605
Yes, sir. All right.
452
00:52:00,868 --> 00:52:01,910
$25!
453
00:52:03,537 --> 00:52:04,705
Help me out.
454
00:52:27,144 --> 00:52:28,729
Got us hot dogs
from the Greek's.
455
00:52:42,743 --> 00:52:45,788
First day of market, 1937.
456
00:52:54,046 --> 00:52:55,547
I never thought I'd get a...
457
00:52:56,632 --> 00:52:57,633
10.
458
00:52:58,592 --> 00:53:00,219
Mmm-hmm. Oh!
459
00:53:00,219 --> 00:53:02,471
I never thought I would.
460
00:53:02,471 --> 00:53:04,640
Hell, I mean... I mean, she's
worth it and all... I just...
461
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:05,724
I never thought I'd get it.
462
00:53:10,020 --> 00:53:12,773
They're havin' a dance down
at Wainright's this year.
463
00:53:12,773 --> 00:53:13,941
I do see why we can't go.
464
00:53:14,942 --> 00:53:16,568
You get Baby up early.
465
00:53:16,568 --> 00:53:18,570
We can go on in, take in
the whole festival.
466
00:53:22,700 --> 00:53:24,618
Jack can take care
of things around here.
467
00:53:31,250 --> 00:53:32,376
I'll see ya tomorrow.
468
00:53:33,168 --> 00:53:34,169
Al right.
469
00:53:50,602 --> 00:53:53,063
Jack still had a pull for me.
470
00:53:53,063 --> 00:53:54,898
And I thought then that
maybe he always would.
471
00:53:56,108 --> 00:53:57,443
But I had to make a choice.
472
00:54:00,779 --> 00:54:04,408
All I hoped was that Aaron and I could
forget everything that had happened
473
00:54:05,033 --> 00:54:06,034
and start over.
474
00:54:36,148 --> 00:54:37,733
Did y'all enjoy
yourself last night?
475
00:54:37,733 --> 00:54:39,943
Oh, the pageant was beautiful.
476
00:54:39,943 --> 00:54:42,321
The whole family was there,
and it was just, uh...
477
00:54:42,321 --> 00:54:43,322
It was wonderful.
478
00:54:54,875 --> 00:54:55,959
Nice festival?
479
00:54:55,959 --> 00:54:58,504
Oh, it sure was.
480
00:54:58,504 --> 00:55:00,506
Listen, I need you to ride
over with me to Daddy's.
481
00:55:01,965 --> 00:55:03,759
I wanna get that new truck
I bought from him
482
00:55:03,759 --> 00:55:05,302
before we go down
to Carolina Beach.
483
00:55:06,094 --> 00:55:07,387
You can drive it back here.
484
00:55:58,730 --> 00:55:59,731
You're gonna get stung.
485
00:56:04,736 --> 00:56:06,113
God damn it, Roxy.
486
00:56:20,460 --> 00:56:22,671
Come on down back
of the barn, Aaron.
487
00:56:22,671 --> 00:56:24,756
I wanna show you something
I killed down there today.
488
00:56:28,385 --> 00:56:29,428
I don't know what it is.
489
00:56:31,013 --> 00:56:32,014
Somethin' strange.
490
00:56:36,018 --> 00:56:37,144
Some strange kind of animal.
491
00:57:08,133 --> 00:57:10,093
Aaron, Baby's...
Aaron's not here.
492
00:57:13,513 --> 00:57:14,890
Put some clothes on Baby.
493
00:57:15,807 --> 00:57:17,267
We gotta go.
494
00:57:17,267 --> 00:57:19,061
Go where? Don't ask me that.
495
00:57:20,103 --> 00:57:22,147
Just get your clothes...
496
00:57:22,147 --> 00:57:24,274
Put some things in your suitcase.
We gotta go. Now!
497
00:57:25,108 --> 00:57:26,276
Get her blankets.
498
00:57:31,239 --> 00:57:32,240
Where's Aaron?
499
00:57:33,241 --> 00:57:34,242
Get in the car.
500
00:57:40,832 --> 00:57:42,417
Jack, where is Aaron?
501
00:57:42,459 --> 00:57:43,794
You don't really
wanna know, Roxy.
502
00:57:44,544 --> 00:57:45,629
Just get in the car.
503
00:57:48,465 --> 00:57:49,633
I'll tell you about it later.
504
00:58:13,782 --> 00:58:14,783
You got any rooms?
505
00:58:21,164 --> 00:58:22,165
Jack...
506
00:58:23,917 --> 00:58:27,129
Jack, I just...
I need to go home.
507
00:58:27,129 --> 00:58:29,548
After you see what's on my
overalls, you won't wanna go home.
508
00:58:32,968 --> 00:58:34,553
I, I can't keep
it in any longer.
509
00:58:37,723 --> 00:58:39,349
I hit him, not too
far from the hole.
510
00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:43,729
What hole? I hit him
at the hole, Roxy.
511
00:58:43,729 --> 00:58:45,105
What hole?
The hole I dug.
512
00:58:46,273 --> 00:58:47,315
I dug... Is Aaron okay?
513
00:58:47,315 --> 00:58:48,900
Roxy...
514
00:58:48,900 --> 00:58:50,610
I hit him twice... Why?
515
00:58:50,610 --> 00:58:52,738
At the hole.
I dug the hole, Roxy.
516
00:58:56,533 --> 00:58:59,244
I dug a hole behind the barn.
517
00:58:59,244 --> 00:59:00,662
Saturday, while y'all
were in town.
518
00:59:02,122 --> 00:59:04,166
And I sat out there and
I looked into it all day
519
00:59:05,292 --> 00:59:06,293
and all night.
520
00:59:07,627 --> 00:59:08,879
I called him out there and I...
521
00:59:09,546 --> 00:59:10,547
Hit him, and I...
522
00:59:12,132 --> 00:59:13,133
Covered him up.
523
00:59:14,426 --> 00:59:15,427
You!
524
00:59:55,342 --> 00:59:56,760
We better be leaving here.
525
01:00:04,935 --> 01:00:06,019
Roxy,
526
01:00:07,646 --> 01:00:08,647
I'll treat you right.
527
01:00:11,691 --> 01:00:12,943
Now, say you'll be ready to go.
528
01:00:14,986 --> 01:00:16,404
Come on. Say it.
529
01:00:19,074 --> 01:00:20,575
Kiss me now and say.
530
01:00:31,211 --> 01:00:32,671
We've got to go.
531
01:00:34,422 --> 01:00:35,757
Got the bus tickets
to Birmingham.
532
01:00:40,554 --> 01:00:41,847
I know somebody
we can stay with.
533
01:00:48,687 --> 01:00:49,688
I don't know why...
534
01:00:55,152 --> 01:00:57,070
I don't know why I ever
thought you'd go with me.
535
01:01:03,827 --> 01:01:05,453
I'll come back for you
as soon as I can.
536
01:02:08,558 --> 01:02:10,769
We picked up Jack Ruff in when
he was getting on the bus.
537
01:02:12,604 --> 01:02:14,147
He told us where
he buried your husband.
538
01:02:16,524 --> 01:02:18,652
We called up to Tarboro,
539
01:02:18,652 --> 01:02:20,987
and some of your people went
out there and they dug him up.
540
01:02:21,988 --> 01:02:23,365
He made a full confession.
541
01:02:24,824 --> 01:02:26,117
Says you two
planned it together.
542
01:02:29,412 --> 01:02:31,790
You never saw those bloody
overalls till yesterday?
543
01:02:32,582 --> 01:02:34,125
No, sir.
544
01:02:34,125 --> 01:02:36,503
You're sure about that?
Yes, sir.
545
01:02:36,503 --> 01:02:38,004
You're real sure? Yes.
546
01:02:41,758 --> 01:02:43,051
I believe we can
go on home, now.
547
01:02:44,135 --> 01:02:46,179
She be arraigned
on Monday morning.
548
01:02:49,849 --> 01:02:51,351
She's gonna be arraigned, Roger?
549
01:03:20,714 --> 01:03:23,717
I don't know how to say
this to you, Roxy,
550
01:03:23,717 --> 01:03:26,678
but I want you to know a
little about what it was like.
551
01:03:28,930 --> 01:03:32,183
You know. I'm used to that phone
ringing at all times of the night.
552
01:03:32,183 --> 01:03:34,936
But this time it, I just
didn't know what to think.
553
01:03:36,730 --> 01:03:39,357
I mean, it had to be
somebody crazy.
554
01:03:41,860 --> 01:03:45,280
But it did finally
get through to me
555
01:03:45,280 --> 01:03:48,283
that they were saying the
sheriff in Georgia had called,
556
01:03:50,618 --> 01:03:52,245
and that Aaron was probably dead
557
01:03:52,245 --> 01:03:53,788
and you and Jack
were off somewhere.
558
01:03:55,832 --> 01:04:00,003
I called Ruth to come to the phone
and try to make some sense out of it,
559
01:04:00,837 --> 01:04:02,047
but she...
560
01:04:07,927 --> 01:04:10,472
Was just as bad as me, at first.
561
01:04:11,890 --> 01:04:14,142
I told them
I'll be right on out there,
562
01:04:14,142 --> 01:04:16,436
and they said it's no use.
But, of course, I went.
563
01:04:16,436 --> 01:04:18,646
I couldn't get to
the farm fast enough.
564
01:04:18,646 --> 01:04:22,108
Somehow, I thought
you might be there.
565
01:04:22,108 --> 01:04:23,818
Even though they said
you were in Georgia.
566
01:04:26,279 --> 01:04:27,280
When got out there,
567
01:04:28,573 --> 01:04:30,909
they had already gone
right to the grave,
568
01:04:30,909 --> 01:04:33,078
a sorry hole not any way
from the barn.
569
01:04:34,371 --> 01:04:35,497
Anybody could have found it.
570
01:04:36,748 --> 01:04:38,124
Anybody could have
found that hole.
571
01:04:39,709 --> 01:04:41,252
What was the matter
with that boy, Jack?
572
01:04:43,463 --> 01:04:44,839
What could he have
been thinking of?
573
01:04:50,887 --> 01:04:51,930
What was I thinking of?
574
01:05:15,620 --> 01:05:17,038
You've got to see him, Roxy.
575
01:05:18,957 --> 01:05:21,126
Got to make yourself
look right at him.
576
01:06:07,338 --> 01:06:09,257
Oh, Roxy.
577
01:06:09,257 --> 01:06:12,552
You hold tight to that baby, Roxy.
She misses her mama.
578
01:06:12,552 --> 01:06:13,595
Don't you worry.
579
01:06:29,861 --> 01:06:31,946
You daddy wanted to buy you one
580
01:06:31,988 --> 01:06:33,490
but I told him
I wanted to pick it out.
581
01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:45,627
Nearly everybody in the world's
got some kind of secret,
582
01:06:45,627 --> 01:06:47,921
but everybody
doesn't get found out
583
01:06:47,921 --> 01:06:49,506
and have their pictures
put in the paper.
584
01:06:52,675 --> 01:06:53,927
We're gonna do the best we can.
585
01:06:55,470 --> 01:06:57,472
When you walk in there tomorrow,
586
01:06:57,472 --> 01:06:59,474
you stand up straight
and hold your shoulders back.
587
01:07:08,149 --> 01:07:09,234
Okay, okay, make way, make way.
588
01:07:09,234 --> 01:07:10,235
Mrs. Walston!
589
01:07:13,029 --> 01:07:15,281
Are you in love
with Jack Ruff in?
590
01:07:15,281 --> 01:07:16,699
Why didn't you go to
your husband's funeral?
591
01:07:16,699 --> 01:07:18,243
Are you really in love
with that guy, Jack Ruff in?
592
01:07:18,243 --> 01:07:19,994
Please, can we get a picture?
593
01:07:20,912 --> 01:07:22,872
Let my wife through, please.
594
01:07:22,872 --> 01:07:25,083
Did you murder your husband?
595
01:08:15,091 --> 01:08:17,135
Bailiff, please read
the confession.
596
01:08:28,646 --> 01:08:33,610
"I stayed home all day Saturday and
Sunday while the Walstons were gone."
597
01:08:33,610 --> 01:08:36,696
"I dug the grave on Saturday,
about 3:00 in the afternoon."
598
01:08:38,781 --> 01:08:42,118
"I used the shovel which I
got from the Walstons' house."
599
01:08:43,286 --> 01:08:44,662
"I left the shovel at the hole."
600
01:08:46,205 --> 01:08:48,249
"I hit him in the back of
the head with the shovel."
601
01:08:49,417 --> 01:08:51,085
"Knocked him out the first lick."
602
01:08:52,712 --> 01:08:55,006
"He was lying down on his face"
603
01:08:55,006 --> 01:08:56,382
"when I hit him the second time."
604
01:08:58,635 --> 01:09:01,429
"I had been sleeping with her."
605
01:09:01,429 --> 01:09:04,140
"No use to say I love her,
and will die loving her."
606
01:09:05,808 --> 01:09:09,437
"I had intercourse
with her from June."
607
01:09:09,437 --> 01:09:11,981
"In a way, she knew I killed him.
In a way, she didn't."
608
01:09:12,982 --> 01:09:14,776
"She wanted to run off with me,"
609
01:09:14,776 --> 01:09:16,444
"but she couldn't,
because of her husband."
610
01:09:17,945 --> 01:09:19,155
"So, I killed her husband."
611
01:09:21,574 --> 01:09:25,536
Now, Mrs. Walston, would you
tell the gentlemen of the jury
612
01:09:25,536 --> 01:09:27,622
how you met and got
to know Jack Ruff in?
613
01:09:32,168 --> 01:09:35,755
He came out to help
my husband with the well.
614
01:09:38,758 --> 01:09:42,220
And then he started helping
with the tobacco crop.
615
01:09:45,598 --> 01:09:47,975
Aaron told him
to come on and move in.
616
01:09:50,019 --> 01:09:51,646
Aaron would go down
to the barn one night,
617
01:09:53,022 --> 01:09:54,399
and Jack would go down the next.
618
01:09:58,903 --> 01:10:00,613
I got up while Aaron
was still sleeping
619
01:10:03,408 --> 01:10:05,326
and I went down to the barn.
620
01:10:07,829 --> 01:10:09,414
And then I got back
before he woke up.
621
01:10:12,625 --> 01:10:16,087
Now, Mrs. Ruff in, I'm gonna ask you a little
bit about those nights down in the barn.
622
01:10:16,087 --> 01:10:18,047
I'm Mrs. Walston.
623
01:10:18,047 --> 01:10:20,550
But those nights down in the barn
were your idea, weren't they?
624
01:10:23,261 --> 01:10:24,846
He asked me to come down there.
625
01:10:24,846 --> 01:10:26,347
But they were your idea,
weren't they?
626
01:10:31,936 --> 01:10:34,272
I wanted to go.
627
01:10:34,272 --> 01:10:37,859
So you were in no way forced to go down
into that barn were you, Mrs. Ruff in?
628
01:10:39,444 --> 01:10:41,154
I am Mrs. Walston.
629
01:10:41,154 --> 01:10:44,157
Now, please describe to
the gentlemen of the jury
630
01:10:44,157 --> 01:10:46,909
just what happened on the first
occasion you had intercourse with him.
631
01:10:52,832 --> 01:10:54,375
You heard the question, ma'am.
632
01:10:54,375 --> 01:10:56,586
Please describe to the
gentlemen of the jury,
633
01:10:56,586 --> 01:10:58,838
the first occasion on which
you had intercourse with him.
634
01:11:01,549 --> 01:11:03,092
My husband had gone off,
635
01:11:05,762 --> 01:11:06,971
and it happened in the garden.
636
01:11:07,722 --> 01:11:08,848
In the garden.
637
01:11:12,769 --> 01:11:13,770
And the next time?
638
01:11:15,688 --> 01:11:16,898
I don't know.
639
01:11:19,233 --> 01:11:21,569
It might have been the next day.
640
01:11:21,569 --> 01:11:24,447
And these relations did occur
every day thereafter, did they not?
641
01:11:27,158 --> 01:11:28,493
Sometimes I was sick.
642
01:11:30,328 --> 01:11:33,664
But, when your husband was
gone, and you weren't sick,
643
01:11:33,664 --> 01:11:34,957
it happened every day,
didn't it?
644
01:11:39,545 --> 01:11:42,590
Please, let the record reflect that the
witness has nodded the answer, "Yes."
645
01:11:58,481 --> 01:12:02,652
For him, for the State,
646
01:12:02,652 --> 01:12:06,656
and for everybody else, for
God's sake, don't turn him loose.
647
01:12:06,656 --> 01:12:11,202
But a life sentence in prison would
constitute a far more severe punishment
648
01:12:11,202 --> 01:12:12,328
than the death penalty.
649
01:12:15,498 --> 01:12:18,960
Whatever damnation
comes out of this case,
650
01:12:20,211 --> 01:12:22,338
she is the foundation for it.
651
01:12:26,259 --> 01:12:29,637
Now, gentlemen, you have
heard the evidence.
652
01:12:29,637 --> 01:12:33,975
After a comparatively short time,
this man was living in the house
653
01:12:33,975 --> 01:12:36,102
with more freedom
than the woman's husband.
654
01:12:37,395 --> 01:12:39,313
She has been unfaithful
to her child,
655
01:12:40,106 --> 01:12:41,566
unfaithful to her husband
656
01:12:42,316 --> 01:12:44,902
and unfaithful to her God.
657
01:12:44,902 --> 01:12:48,781
Not in the annals of the
history of North Carolina,
658
01:12:48,781 --> 01:12:52,910
have we had a murder of such
brutality as to compare with this one.
659
01:12:52,910 --> 01:12:56,497
Gentlemen, I want you to
return a verdict of guilty.
660
01:12:58,165 --> 01:13:01,043
I want you to send Jack Ruff in
661
01:13:01,043 --> 01:13:04,171
and Roxanna Walston
to the gas chamber.
662
01:13:06,382 --> 01:13:07,425
No!
663
01:13:08,843 --> 01:13:11,053
Wait.
664
01:13:11,053 --> 01:13:12,597
She never did say
she'd run off with me.
665
01:13:15,308 --> 01:13:16,767
I pushed her into
the car that night.
666
01:13:18,185 --> 01:13:19,353
She didn't know what happened.
667
01:13:23,024 --> 01:13:25,318
And when [ finally told her,
she ran away from me and hid.
668
01:13:28,863 --> 01:13:30,698
They said yesterday
that I do not have a heart!
669
01:13:35,995 --> 01:13:37,580
I do have a heart,
670
01:13:39,248 --> 01:13:40,958
and there's grief
in my heart at the bottom.
671
01:13:44,253 --> 01:13:46,005
Will, hold her up here.
I'll get her some water.
672
01:13:46,005 --> 01:13:47,006
Watch your head.
673
01:13:48,966 --> 01:13:51,385
We have a verdict in the
Walston murder case.
674
01:13:51,427 --> 01:13:54,889
The jury went out at 11:25
and they were back at 12:05.
675
01:13:54,889 --> 01:13:56,349
They found Mrs. Roxanna Walston
676
01:13:56,349 --> 01:13:58,392
not guilty of
conspiracy to murder,
677
01:13:58,392 --> 01:13:59,727
and they found Mr. Jack Ruff in
678
01:13:59,727 --> 01:14:01,729
guilty of murder
in the first degree,
679
01:14:01,729 --> 01:14:04,523
with no recommendation
for mercy.
680
01:14:04,523 --> 01:14:07,193
Handkerchiefs fluttered as the
judge intoned the death sentence.
681
01:14:09,320 --> 01:14:12,281
I know Kate would be
happy to have her.
682
01:14:12,281 --> 01:14:14,450
That sounds just like
something a man would say.
683
01:14:15,451 --> 01:14:17,370
That's half her trouble now.
684
01:14:17,370 --> 01:14:19,246
Listening to ghost stories,
all her life,
685
01:14:19,246 --> 01:14:22,875
and always doing something some
man thought she ought to do.
686
01:14:22,875 --> 01:14:25,711
How can she go to
Virginia, or anywhere else?
687
01:14:25,711 --> 01:14:27,922
She needs to learn
to do something first.
688
01:14:27,922 --> 01:14:29,715
Could you lower your voice?
689
01:14:54,573 --> 01:14:56,033
You know, this was
your mother's bed.
690
01:14:58,744 --> 01:15:01,622
That's why I brought
you in here.
691
01:15:01,622 --> 01:15:04,667
There's no better medicine in this whole
world than lying in your mama's bed.
692
01:15:10,006 --> 01:15:11,298
It was our mama's bed, too.
693
01:15:13,384 --> 01:15:15,845
I lay right here myself when I
wasn't much older than you are,
694
01:15:16,971 --> 01:15:17,972
talking to Mama.
695
01:15:24,937 --> 01:15:27,189
When I was in that tourist
camp in Georgia with him,
696
01:15:29,400 --> 01:15:32,194
I didn't know how to say,
"No, I can't go with you."
697
01:15:34,947 --> 01:15:37,575
I never said "no"
to anybody in my life,
698
01:15:39,660 --> 01:15:41,203
except for Aaron
on the Fourth of July.
699
01:15:48,169 --> 01:15:50,713
Different things happen
to different people, Roxy.
700
01:15:52,256 --> 01:15:53,382
Don't think you're the only one
701
01:15:53,382 --> 01:15:54,633
something bad ever happened to.
702
01:15:56,177 --> 01:15:57,511
What really matters
is how you behave
703
01:15:57,553 --> 01:15:58,554
after it's over.
704
01:16:00,139 --> 01:16:01,140
And it is over.
705
01:16:08,981 --> 01:16:12,943
Daddy, I'd like to
go to the farm today.
706
01:16:19,158 --> 01:16:21,327
You gotta get your
driving license sometime.
707
01:16:23,079 --> 01:16:24,121
I'm going to.
708
01:16:28,250 --> 01:16:32,630
And then, I think you
and me and Ruth ought to...
709
01:16:33,839 --> 01:16:36,050
We ought to talk about
you getting on a train
710
01:16:36,050 --> 01:16:37,760
and heading up
to Fredericksburg,
711
01:16:39,386 --> 01:16:40,971
to stay with Aunt Kate
for a while.
712
01:16:46,727 --> 01:16:50,022
Daddy, I know I won't stay
in Tarboro for my whole life.
713
01:16:52,858 --> 01:16:54,944
But right now my child
needs her family.
714
01:16:57,238 --> 01:16:58,614
She needs a stable home.
715
01:17:03,494 --> 01:17:05,746
I'm gonna stay right here
and I'm gonna ride it out,
716
01:17:08,207 --> 01:17:09,208
just the same as you.
717
01:17:10,626 --> 01:17:11,669
And Ruth,
718
01:17:12,586 --> 01:17:13,796
and our whole family.
