♪

Ho, ho.

I'm sorry, mister, we're not open yet.

But I can give you a drink of this, if it'll help.

Where does the doctor live?

What happened to him?

Where can I find the doctor?

Next to the last house on that side of the street.

Thanks. Yah. Git.

I'm coming.

- Yes? - Is the doctor in, ma'am?

No, he isn't.

When do you expect him?

My husband won't be able to help you.

Why?

Because tomorrow morning,

they're going to take him out and hang him.

♪

Thank you, Fred.

Is your husband the only doctor in town?

Concho's not big enough for two doctors.

Can you help him?

He looks pretty bad.

Watch him. I'll be right back.

Where you going?

To get your husband.

They won't let you near him.

I only see Ben once a day for 10 minutes.

I'll see him.

Mister, going somewhere?

- Inside. - No, you ain't.

- Any reason? - Two reasons.

Me and this here.

I gotta see Dr. Kinkaid.

No, you don't.

I get paid two extra dollars to make certain

no one gets near Dr. Kinkaid.

Now get on outta here.

Whaaa...!

My gun!

Stay right where you are. I'll take the gun belt.

Use your left hand. Throw it on the desk.

Now sit down.

Hold it, Lonnie.

He jumped me, Sheriff. Now I want a piece of him.

You go on back outside. Gotta earn your wages.

Now...

- what do you want? - I'm with a trail drive.

I got a man hurt. He needs a doctor.

So?

Kinkaid's the only one around.

You almost got a face full of buckshot for nothing.

Kinkaid can't do a thing for you.

Why not? You can stand guard over him.

The only time he leaves that cell is tomorrow

when we take him out and hang him.

Sheriff, if it wasn't for my boss,

I'd be dead right now.

I've got to get him some help.

Sorry, only Judge Markham can unlock that cell

before tomorrow, and he's not about to.

- Judge... - Markham.

Where can I find him?

Big house the north end of town.

But you're wasting your time.

I'll keep that safe for you.

One word of advice, though.

Get your friend to another town.

You push too hard in Concho,

you'll get yourself in bad trouble.

Better not try that again!

♪

Judge Markham?

- Yes. - Name's Tate.

I got a problem that needs your help.

Oh, well, come in. Come in.

Forgive the looks of my study.

I live in here most of the time.

Just make yourself comfortable. Would you like a cup of coffee?

Thank you.

Here. Help yourself.

I need it to warm my bones in the morning.

What can I do for you?

We had an accident, sir.

I've got a man hurt over at Doc Kinkaid's house.

Sheriff says I need your say-so before the Doc can tend him.

Oh, it's totally out of the question.

Doc Kinkaid was tried for murder,

convicted by a jury, and sentenced to hang.

As a condemned prisoner, he has no rights or privileges.

I only know I got a man hurt, and you can help him.

You don't let a murderer roam the streets for any reason.

There's a doctor in Pine Ridge.

Pine Ridge is a day's ride.

I'm sorry. Kinkaid stays behind bars.

- Can't you make a... - That's all there is to it.

Well, if anything happens to the Colonel

because he didn't get help in time,

I'm gonna hold you to blame.

Is that a threat, young man?

No, that's a promise.

He refused?

He said there was a doctor in Pine Ridge we could go to.

Sam Logan. He's a good doctor.

He won't do us any good.

Sorry.

I brought him in as fast as I could.

I'm going after our drovers.

What for?

Only a sheriff and deputy guard that jail.

They're not about to stand up against ten men.

Break Ben out of jail?

Only long enough for him to treat the Colonel.

Don't try it.

Sam Tarv is tough and stubborn.

And he's no coward. He'll fight you.

And everybody around will come to his help.

You'll end up like Ben. Be reasonable.

I have been. It's somebody else's turn.

Young man.

Good morning.

Uh, where's the injured man?

In here.

May I see him, please?

Who did you say he was?

Colonel MacKenzie, Shiloh Ranch.

Where is he hurt?

Ribs. I think they're broke.

How is he?

He's weak and getting weaker.

Just from a broken rib?

It must be more.

Well...

Well, Mister, uh...

Tate.

Mr. Tate, I'm not being as arbitrary as it seems.

I'd have Kinkaid here in a minute if I thought

it would do any good, but it wouldn't.

The man is grossly incompetent.

That's not true.

John, i-it's just not true.

Can you deny the mistakes he's made,

the tragic, deadly mistakes?

Ben did the best he could. Always.

Too many times, it wasn't enough.

If that doctor knows anything at all,

it's better than any of us.

All right, come with me.

Mr. Tate!

What he said about my husband...

it's not true.

You understand my decision was not influenced

by the conversation we had at my house.

I didn't say it was.

I take hard and direct action against threats,

but I can understand the reason behind yours.

However, Mr. Tate, don't do it again.

Good morning, Sam.

Sorry to interrupt your breakfast.

I was just finished.

I see you two got together after all.

Yes, Sam, I want you to release Kinkaid.

You what?

Just long enough to treat a patient,

and under strict guard at all times.

I don't know, Judge, that's... That's kind of a risk isn't it?

I expect you can take the risk out of it.

Well, if you say so.

You don't pay much attention to advice, do you?

They're letting you out of here for a spell.

Let's go.

Go where and do what?

Friend of mine is hurt.

Come to the wrong man. I'm not a doctor.

I'm a murderer. Ask the Honorable John Markham.

He's hurting bad. He needs your help.

I can't help anybody. I don't want to help anybody.

I should have known. You see?

Your wife said you'd help, said you'd care.

Let's get out of here.

Wait a minute.

Is he at my house?

That's right.

Changed my mind.

Oh, Ben, Ben.

Marie, is everything all right with you?

Yes, I'm fine. Oh, you look so tired.

Just get on with it, Ben.

How did this happen?

We were trail herding north.

Lightning storm hit.

Had the cattle on the verge of running all night.

I was dog tired this morning when we started out.

I guess I was dozing.

Then a rattler spooked my horse.

Went right off backwards.

Got my foot hung up. I was in a bad way.

Colonel MacKenzie got me back in the saddle

before I got my neck broke.

Took a kick in the side for it.

How long ago did this happen?

A couple of hours, I guess, by now.

And he's got a couple of broken ribs,

but that isn't the problem.

The jagged end of one has punctured his spleen.

What does that mean?

If the damage isn't repaired,

the bleeding will continue, the spleen will rupture,

and he'll die.

Can't you do anything?

- Operate. - When?

Now.

Let's get a man on a fast horse,

send him to Pine Ridge for Doc Logan.

Wait a minute. Is there time?

Not in my judgment.

Do you know how this operation is done?

I advise against it.

John, he'll be dead before a rider

even reaches Pine Ridge.

Well, it's your decision. I still say no.

No, it's not mine.

You're right. It's his.

Brandy.

MacKenzie of Shiloh.

Wealthy man.

Must be a comfort to have all the money you need.

All I have is a mortgage on this house

and a stack of unpaid bills,

not much to leave someone you vowed to love,

cherish, and provide for, is it, Judge?

Colonel?

Colonel, can you hear me?

Tate? Tate?

- Right here. - Oh.

Colonel MacKenzie, I'm Dr. Kinkaid.

You've been seriously hurt.

Do I have your permission to operate?

Operate?

Colonel MacKenzie, don't do it.

I don't understand. What's happening?

You just got busted up a little.

Doc here says he can fix you right up.

I...

You make the decisions, Tate.

Well?

Operate.

The fee will be high.

$10,000 to be paid to my wife regardless of the outcome.

Now do you see?

He's using fear to force this operation.

Which means $10,000 for him

and could mean MacKenzie's life

for an operation he might not even need.

Well, don't do it. Don't take the chance.

Go ahead.

Judge?

With your dedication and respect for the law,

I'm sure you'll see that this agreement is honored.

In 30 years, I've never dirtied

or abused my profession, but you,

how many people have you butchered, maimed,

killed and then hid your incompetence

behind the protection of your profession, how many?

And now this, blackmail.

I've sent men to the gallows and felt pity and regret

for each one of them, but not for you, Kinkaid.

Not for you.

For what it's worth, I'd say Ben's as good

as most doctors around.

Thank you, Sam.

Right now, he's the only doctor around.

Time we got started.

- Good morning, Seth. - Morning.

Expecting lots of folks in town tomorrow?

Usually are for a hanging.

Funny how it makes them want to buy.

I guess you wouldn't mind one a week.

Twice a week if they got it coming.

Never if they don't.

He's under.

Tate, there's something you can do.

Handle the ether.

Give him one or two drops every now and then.

I'm hanging tomorrow for a crime I didn't commit.

It's just not right, Sam.

He killed Gannon.

I was drunk.

Maybe I did shoot him, but I wouldn't murder anybody.

He wouldn't.

The jury says he did.

It was self-defense.

Right now I don't care.

Now stop the talking and keep working.

There was one witness to what happened.

Her testimony convicted me.

Now I don't know why, but she lied.

You go to her, convince her to tell the truth.

You do, I still have a chance to live.

I'll go when you're through here.

You go now, or I am through now.

But you can't do that.

This will take two hours at the most.

You be back here before then or I won't even sew him up.

Sheriff?

You just get Tracy to change her story

- in front of witnesses. - She won't do it!

And if he tries to force her in any way, he'll go to jail.

You'd better convince her, Tate.

You'd better. Otherwise...

Ben, you'd do this?

A man will do almost anything not to hang.

You're wasting time.

Where do I find this Tracy?

She works at the saloon.

You have less than two hours now.

♪

All right now, gentlemen, pay close attention.

Here is your chance, an opportunity to win $50.

Look what I have here in my hat, huh?

I have 60 slips of paper, gentlemen.

All you have to do is to pick a number

that's marked with the closest time

when the trap is sprung on the hanging tomorrow,

and you know what happens with that, gentlemen?

For one dollar invested, you get $50.

That's what you can win.

Hey, wait a minute, you said there's 60 slips.

What about the extra $10?

All right now, gentlemen, I'll answer it.

Gentlemen, surely, aren't I entitled

to an honest profit on my little venture, huh?

All right, I'll pay.

All right, thank you. Take a number there.

And you, sir?

All right now, just pick a number right out of the hat.

Thank you.

And you, sir?

What'll it be?

Whiskey.

I still think he's got a racket going.

Give us a couple of drinks up here.

Right.

Say, which one's Tracy?

Over there. But she's taken.

See, when I get to be Sheriff, well, then I'll...

Hello.

Hi. Did your friend get fixed up?

Dr. Kinkaid's operating on him right now.

They let him out, huh?

Mister, do you want something?

- I want to talk to her. - Some other time.

Come on.

Oh... I'm busy right now.

That's right, and she's gonna stay busy, so take off.

Come on.

Mister, I told you to get out of here.

Friend, don't start unless you're ready to go all the way.

Now cut it out, both of you.

You'll cost me my job.

Honey, just a couple of minutes, huh?

I'll make it up to you, I promise.

Well, I have to relieve the Sheriff anyhow.

Be gone when I get back.

Lonnie is a good customer.

I hope you didn't make me lose him.

He'll be back. He's hungry.

That's for sure.

Now, what's so important it made you

almost tear this place apart?

I want to know about the Kinkaid murder.

My boss's life depends on it.

Mister, I don't know what kind of games you play,

but find yourself another...

No games.

Now you interest me.

What do you want to know?

All you can tell me.

Well, it happened about two weeks ago

in a room upstairs.

Kinkaid and Gannon were playing head-to-head poker.

I was there because Gannon always liked

to have a woman around him.

He paid for it.

That's my job, to keep the customer happy.

Gannon was a professional, but honest.

The way Kinkaid drank and played his cards,

all Gannon had to do was deal the cards

and rake in the money.

All Kinkaid could do right was empty his glass.

The Doc was down to his last $60.

I watched his savings, all he had,

go across that table.

I never saw a man so desperate to win.

I saw him hide a card. Gannon didn't.

It smelled trouble, but it wasn't my trouble,

so I kept my mouth shut.

The way Kinkaid tried to cheat,

a child could have caught him at it.

When Kinkaid saw Gannon rake in the money,

something must have broke inside him.

It was all his money, all he had left.

Gannon hit him.

Doc went wild.

There was a shot.

Gannon fell.

I knew he was dead.

That's about it.

I ran out of the room. They called the Sheriff.

Before he got here, Kinkaid must've crawled

out of the window and took off.

Doctors don't usually carry guns.

Of course, Kinkaid doesn't act like a usual doctor.

Did you see him pull the gun?

Well, they were struggling close together.

Anyway, they never found any gun.

Jury figured Doc threw it away.

They never proved whose gun it was, then?

No, but I saw it in Doc's hand.

I saw it.

Kinkaid said you lied.

Mister, I don't pretend.

I know what I am.

This is it for me.

If a man has the money, I do my best to pleasure him.

I sit alone at church.

But I go to church.

And when I place my hand on the Holy Bible

and swear to tell the truth, I tell the truth.

Sorry.

Forget it.

Thanks for your help.

Maybe when this is all over, you'll stop by,

and we'll have a drink together.

Maybe.

Turn around.

I don't want a move out of you.

Well?

She wouldn't change her story.

Go, Ben, out the back.

Run.

How far would I get?

I'd be caught, you'd go to jail.

Ben, please.

More ether.

Do you want him to come to?

Sheriff will have something to say about this.

Don't tell him.

What, let her get away with it?

You want to look like a fool?

Instruments that do half the job.

Inadequate conditions.

How do they expect a doctor to save anybody?

You know, there were no medical schools where I came from,

just a... a man who knew a little bit more than I did.

I learned surgery by doing.

A thousand mangled bodies from Bull Run to Appomattox.

I'm still learning.

So many lives I lost because we don't know.

We just don't know.

I need a drink.

Tate, bring that bottle over.

Well, come on! Come on!

Lori.

Please, Lori? Please?

Give it to him.

It makes you forget the last one,

gives you courage for the next.

And when they die because you don't know enough,

you blame yourself.

But you go on because...

there's no one else.

Up to you, Judge.

Hmm.

Oh, Tracy?

Tracy, what would you do with this hand?

Oh, I'd go to the bank, take out all my money,

and bet it.

I agree. Five dollars, gentlemen.

I fold.

Wise decision. Pair of fives.

Well, I folded with three of a kind.

But you said that if he went...

Never believe anything a woman says.

Sit down here for a few hands, Tracy.

Ah, getting a pretty good crowd today, aren't we?

Oh, I saw you talking to that... that Mr. Tate.

Quite a chap.

I think so.

Ante up, gentlemen.

Find out anything?

Not much.

I didn't think you would.

Tracy said Kinkaid ran after he shot Gannon.

I went to his house. He was there.

He put up much of a fight?

No, he and his missus

was just sitting around the parlor waiting.

Gannon must've been a good friend of Judge Markham's.

The Judge can't abide tin-horns.

Did the Doc get a fair trial?

Had his day in court. He spoke his peace.

Others spoke theirs.

Hard to say who was telling the truth.

Stories couldn't have been more different.

I've known him for 28 years.

In all that time,

Ben never carried a gun, never.

No, sir, I found no gun in the room.

She's dead.

I'm sorry.

I saw him holding the gun.

No one entered the room until the Sheriff got there.

Went over every inch of ground between the saloon

and his house, couldn't find it.

I don't know what happened. I...

I just know I... I couldn't save her.

Hanged by the neck until you are dead.

What do you figure happened to the gun?

I figured the same thing the jury did.

He took it with him when he ran and dropped it somewhere.

Shooting a man doesn't make Kinkaid an incompetent doctor.

That's what Markham keeps calling him.

Why do you figure he hates him so much?

Last year the Judge's daughter was in an accident.

Her buggy overturned. Kinkaid operated.

She died.

Well, that happens.

It shouldn't have, even Doc admits that.

Thanks for the drink.

Beats me.

That's three pots in a row. I wish I could be that lucky.

Did he ask you for a date?

- Who? - That Mr. Tate.

No, he just asked a few questions.

Oh? What about?

Dr. Kinkaid and the murder.

♪

Well, that's it, gentlemen.

- This is for you. - Oh, thank you, Judge.

You're leaving with all our money, Judge.

It's as it should be.

Real gentleman, the Judge.

Not when he's playing poker.

Oh.

♪

I won't hurt you, ma'am.

Ma'am?

I am sorry.

This is the weapon that killed Gannon,

isn't it, his gun?

How dare you enter my house like this?

Is this Gannon's gun?

No. It belongs to me.

Locked away in a drawer?

Is it that valuable?

I asked what you're doing in my home.

The Sheriff told me that you were the one that kept

people out of that room the night Gannon was killed.

That's right, so that none of the evidence

would be tampered with.

Did you go into that room, Judge,

before the Sheriff got there?

I did not.

And not one witness at the trial said that I did.

Maybe during the excitement, no one took notice.

Just what are you trying to say?

Only that, uh...

if this was the murder weapon

and it did prove to belong to Gannon,

that you could never sentence Kinkaid to hang.

Why not?

If Kinkaid wasn't armed, it was self-defense.

Provoked, maybe, but self-defense.

Why would I oppose that?

Because of your daughter.

That is the reason, isn't it?

Your daughter died because Kinkaid

made a mistake on the operating table.

Mistake?

He murdered Sarah

as surely as if he'd put a bullet in her brain.

It was a mistake.

And that woman was my wife

until the day we buried Sarah.

Then she became the mindless creature you just saw.

Was that another mistake?

We were a family. A happy family.

Now it's only a memory and an agony.

Another mistake?

No.

Kinkaid will hang for the murder of three people.

Justice, Mr. Tate.

Not when I tell them about that gun.

Oh, no.

No, I can't let you do that.

♪

Come on, my dear.

Be your word against mine.

Just rest comfortably now.

Well, Doctor?

Done all I can.

Is he gonna be all right?

You'll know better when he comes out of the ether.

My wife will know what to do.

Just make sure she gets the $10,000.

She'll get it.

Let's go, Ben.

- Sheriff... - Hold it.

That's the weapon that killed Gannon.

And I'm betting it belonged to him.

Where'd you get it?

Judge Markham's desk.

- You broke in? - Yes.

And he told you this was the murder weapon?

- No... - What did he tell you?

He said it belonged to him, but he's lying.

He took this gun out of the room after Gannon was shot.

He took it so it couldn't be used as evidence

in favor of Kinkaid.

Now you listen to me.

I've known John Markham my whole life,

and never once in all that time

has he ever broken or bent the law.

Now you want me to believe that he's stolen evidence,

withheld it at the trial, and lied under oath.

That's what I want you to believe.

It's not about to happen.

Then you'll hang this man for a crime he didn't commit.

Let's go, Ben.

Why doesn't he come around?

He will. Ben's a fine doctor.

Come on, sit down.

Thank you, ma'am.

Sure looks good.

I'm really hungry, too.

I guess it's all that walking around I've been doing.

Thank you, ma'am.

Ma'am, uh, could I ask you something?

Of course.

With your husband the only doctor around for 30 miles,

he must've had all the work he could handle.

Why would he have to cheat at cards?

Well, after what happened to Sarah,

John said terrible things about Ben.

He warned, he threatened people

not to come to him for treatment.

Judge Markham is a powerful voice in Concho.

And they listen?

Yes, they went to Sam Logan over in Pine Ridge.

We tried to get along, but it was hopeless.

Ben wanted to get enough together

so that we could move to another town,

make a fresh start.

You worried about your boss?

Among others.

Buy you drink?

Why not?

What would you like?

Whiskey.

You must think a lot of him.

Well, he got hurt helping me. I'm just trying to help him.

Would you like to help me feed my cat?

Sure. Where'd he go?

Oh, he'll be back around 8:00 in the morning.

No offense, but my mind's not on it.

Well...

Does that help your concentration?

Kiss Gannon like that?

If you did, you'd know whether or not he was wearing a gun.

I don't do anything for you, huh?

Sure, you do. It's just like I said.

I don't know if he was wearing a gun.

He'd have gotten around to kissing after the game.

What about a holster?

Never wore one.

Said it spoiled the set of his suit.

Funny duck.

A real silk-shirt type.

Wore 'em a couple of times, then gave them away.

Same with his suits and his shoes... and women.

Except me.

He wouldn't play more than a couple of hands

before he'd want a new deck.

Does your cat come back every morning?

Mm-hmm.

Thanks.

Wake up!

What did you want?

I want to buy a gun.

Now?

Now.

At 2:00 in the morning?

Oh, well, uh, yeah.

That does make a difference.

Go ahead.

Well, I guess Dr. Kinkaid's gonna have a real smooth ride.

I want this to be neat and quick, no mistakes.

Well, y-you can count on me Sheriff.

And afterwards, I want this gallows knocked down

and every stick of wood burned to ashes.

Same for that rope.

So the folks won't get any souvenirs.

Anybody tries, clap 'em in jail.

Will do, Sheriff.

Tad, Billy, come on, get out of there!

Now, you kids listen to me, I catch you playing

around here again, I'm gonna tan both your hides,

and that goes for any other kid in town.

Now you tell 'em. Get.

Wonder what a man thinks the day of his hanging?

Bet his guts are in his throat.

Lonnie, sometimes I look at you,

I think one day you'll know what it's like.

Sheriff!

Don't make jokes like that no more, huh?

Hello.

Good morning, Colonel.

Mrs. Kinkaid, your nurse.

How do you feel?

Well, um...

I wouldn't want to spend all day in the saddle,

but... not too bad.

Speaking of saddles, uh, thanks for saving my neck.

Anytime, my boy.

Anytime.

I feel thirsty.

Could I have a drink?

I'm afraid you can't have anything yet.

Oh. Water would do.

In a little while.

Ah, it's a lovely day, isn't it?

Come on.

He's gonna make it?

Told you Ben was a fine doctor.

Mr. Tate?

Are you going to the...

I'd consider it a favor if you did.

I'm not.

I want to remember Ben the way he was yesterday.

But if you're there and he see you...

I think he'll understand.

Do you understand?

Yes, ma'am, I do.

I think he will, too.

Thank you.

I just want to say, ma'am, you're a fine lady.

Just keep hoping.

I'll make some coffee.

One thing you can say for Sheriff Tolliver,

he's a punctual man.

♪

Benjamin Kinkaid, do you have any last words?

Then as a district judge of this county,

I order the sentence to be carried out.

You may proceed.

Sheriff, I see you still have the Judge's gun.

Yes.

Don't you think you should give it back to them?

There's time enough for that.

So he came to you with that ridiculous story, Sam.

Yes, he did.

I think the Judge would like it back now.

Thank you.

You're sure that's your weapon, Judge?

Yes. Now may we get on with it?

How long have you owned that gun?

Sam, get him out of here.

Why? I just asked a simple question.

It could mean a man's life.

How long have you had it, Judge?

Sheriff, we have more important things to do at this moment

than to discuss guns.

I know that, Judge, and I'm sorry to bother you,

but I still would like to hear your answer.

Well, I see no reason for this, but if you insist.

What was it you wanted to know?

How long have you owned that gun?

About, uh, five years.

Five years. You're sure of that?

Of course I'm sure.

Now may we get on with the business at hand?

Satisfied?

Sheriff, I bought a gun exactly like that last night.

Take a look at 'em both.

May I?

Of course.

Both model 18s.

And, Sheriff, that model came out less than a year ago.

Check the catalog at the gunsmith's.

Don't take my word for it. Look it up yourself.

That's easy enough to do.

Are you calling me a liar, Sam?

No, sir, but I think I ought to get this straightened out.

And I order you to proceed with this execution.

I'll proceed with this execution

when I'm certain that it's lawful.

Deputy, drop him!

Lonnie, hold it!

- Lonnie! - Judge, I-I can't.

The Sheriff's gotta give the order.

Judge! Judge!

Judge, stop it! Judge, stop!

- Judge... - No! No!

For 30 years, I administered law and order

in this town as you asked me to!

Before I came here, there was no law.

None of you were safe on the streets!

I dealt out justice, and I was firm, but I was fair!

You, Lynn Boland, remember that fight

you had with Del Backer, he broke your leg,

and you couldn't work your stock for four months?

I sentenced him to work as your wrangler without pay

till you could get back on your feet.

And you, Billy Dawson.

Remember that drifter came by your ranch and molested you?

Well, we caught him, and I dealt out justice

with a bullwhip across his back and 20 years at hard labor!

He'll never molest another woman.

And you...

you, Seth Nagel, I remember your boy, Judd.

Nine years old, shot down and killed in a bank robbery,

an innocent child, and your woman saw it happen.

We rode out after 'em, Seth. We caught 'em.

We brought 'em back!

And we tried 'em, and they swung!

And this man...

this man killed my daughter!

You know that.

You know what happened to my poor wife because of it.

And the law, the law couldn't touch him!

And I say no!

No!

No man is above the law!

Including you, Judge.

You just told us.

You didn't try him for killing Gannon.

You tried him for killing your daughter.

I've never been unjust.

Judge...

You never lost a daughter before.

How many times have you and I stood together

against a lynch mob and you saying

they'd hang legal or not at all?

But that was different. Wasn't it?

Two wrongs don't make a right.

One crime never excuses the other.

You've sentence a lot of men with those words.

I can't have it both ways, can I?

I guess I hated you so much, I couldn't see what I was doing.

When a man takes anything that personal,

he loses his right to sit in judgment.

I've lost my right, Sheriff.

You'll know where to find me.

Ten... thousand... dollars...

and no cents.

It's about $9,500 too much.

Well, you agreed to the price.

You want me to take it out of your wages?

Why not? 60 bucks a month.

It'll only take 12 1/2 years.

Well, there we are.

Ah, it's good to be alive, isn't it?

- Yes, thanks to Tate. - Yeah.

No, but... but...

No, we owe you more than you us.

Well, I'm not so sure about that.

Good luck to you both.

Colonel.

Thank you.
