We've got to get this birthday party together. So listen, girl, Cordell is

to be here in a couple hours, and we really want to spring a surprise on him.

Now, let's put these things all over, and let's give this whole place a kind

look of a bouncy look, a gaiety look, if you know what I mean.

Julie, honey, don't stretch that straight.

Give it a little like this, if you will.

Alex, honey, I've got to show you something, please. Jimmy, come on. I've

birthday present for Cordell. I want you to see this.

Yes, sirree.

This is about Hayes Cooper, the early years.

This guy used to be a bounty hunter before he was a ranger. I didn't know

Anyway, I'll read you a little something here.

Summer had just taken hold in the mountains of Utah when Hayes Cooper

the trail of Jake Reams and followed it to where the murderer and bank robber

was camped with a couple of his boys high in the Wasatch.

Wasatch? Wasatch.

Okay.

Okay. You want me to continue? I mean, I... Go ahead. All right. All right.

And in trying to decide how to capture this trio of desperados, Cooper decided

that the direct approach would be best.

So he just rode right into the camp.

Hello in there.

Easy.

How are you, boys?

How are you doing?

And who might you be, mister?

Just someone dying for a cup of coffee.

Been a long ride.

Drink your coffee, then move on.

Now, that's not being neighborly.

But I can understand why you feel that way.

You're a dead man, mister.

Now, that definitely ain't neighborly.

Take him, boys!

In the eyes of a ranger, the unsuspecting stranger had better know

wrong from right.

Cause the eyes of the ranger are upon you.

Any long you do, he's gonna see.

When you're in Texas, look behind you.

Cause that's where the ranger's gonna be.

And that's just page one. What are you waiting for? Read on. Yeah, come on.

Don't stop. Okay.

Two days later, Hayes arrived at Indian Mountain, a prearranged meeting place

where Marshal Clyde Dolan and his deputy, Edward Hoskins, were waiting.

Damn nation.

He swung them in just exactly where and when he said he was going to bring them

in.

That's unbelievable luck.

Luck ain't got nothing to do with it, Deputy.

Not if you know Hayes Cooper.

Looks like you pulled it off, Cooper.

Yep. You boys ought to be lucky he brought you in standing up instead of

dragged in.

Here's your money, Cooper.

Thanks, Marshal.

I heard the Tarvin brothers are somewhere in this park.

Yeah, I heard that.

Killed a couple of bounty hunters.

More than a few settlers.

Going after the Tarvin brothers now, Cooper?

That's my thought.

You better watch your back, Coop.

Tarvin brothers make Reams and his boys look like a bunch of choir girls.

That's why there's a $5 ,000 reward for them, Marshal.

I reckon.

The Tarvin gang was running with a bounty on their hands.

Cooper headed southwest for the Paradise Trail, a new route just open for the

settlers heading west.

They're bound to face the judgment for the blood that they have. Cooper figured

the Tarvin brothers might be looking for easy prey along this fresh -cut trail.

Later on, he'd learn his guess was right on the money.

A day's ride ahead of Hayes Cooper, a small convoy of wagons was on its last

of a long journey from Pennsylvania to Utah.

Aboard these five wagons were a group of Mormon settlers heading west to join

their fellow members who were building a new settlement in Paradise Lap.

Their leader was John Mason.

Mr. Brazos!

On his first great mission in the service of the Lord.

How much further than Samson's trading post would you say?

Well, should be there by noon tomorrow.

When do you think we'll be stopping for the night?

Blue One is quite tired.

This place is as safe as any. I suppose we could stop here and get an early

start in the morning.

That would be appreciated.

Stopping for the night, Molly.

Praise the Lord.

Well, set up, Cam. Just up ahead.

Tell me what four times four is.

Lizzie? Sixteen.

Very good.

And who can tell me what four times five is?

Tell me, aren't you going to join us in class today?

Twin. These are all easy, Miss Burns. I already know my sixes.

Oh, you do?

Okay, then perhaps you'd like to tell us what six times nineteen is.

Not just yet.

Lizzie?

114.

I was going to say that.

Well, of course you were.

All right, supper is ready, everyone.

We thank thee for watching over our journey and for another day free of

misfortune.

We ask for thine continued guidance and blessings as we seek to join our

brothers and sisters in Paradise Valley.

Please help us keep our faith strong, our minds pure, and our bodies safe so

that they may continue to do thy work.

We thank thee for the food we are about to partake and all the bounties so

mercifully bestowed.

Amen. Amen.

Let's eat.

Tommy Mason.

You better ride,

Hayes Cooper ride.

Behind the train and deep in the mountains, Hayes Cooper had been

trail of iron -shod horses, more than a dozen of them.

The rain the night before had wiped out all traces, and Cooper was left with

just his intuition.

He decided to head for Samson's trading post.

You better ride.

Hey, Cooper, ride.

You better ride.

Hey, Cooper, ride.

Well, now, ain't this a pretty sight.

Not so pretty about a bunch of damn sod, but... Well, I guess that depends on

which ones you're looking at.

They

good

looking, ain't they?

Can I have three of these onions, too, with some of your potatoes?

And where might your troubles be taking you? Oh, sir, I plan to sail one of

those clipper tips around the world, boy.

All right, now, start with the whiskey.

We need three cases.

My name is Adams.

Oh, well, pardon me, Mr. Adams.

But you're mighty damn ugly now, ain't you?

No, sir.

I just don't take it being called boy anymore.

We'll call you any damn thing we want to.

What are you looking at?

Where's the damn whiskey?

It's been over a month since I've seen the inside of the store. Clay and Brago

said they have just about everything in there.

Imagine that, way out here.

Go ahead before you bust in two.

We'll unhitch the team and be in shortly.

Son,

come on, lend a hand.

Get the other side.

Danny, look at what we've got down here.

It's a neat little pair of quails.

Excuse me, sir.

I hope you have baking powder.

Why, of course.

How much would you be needing?

Hey, pretty lady. Excuse me, sir.

Don't break your juice here in a fresh peach, huh?

Oh, no, you.

You've been to Chelsea.

Oh, leave me alone.

I bet I could make you squeal.

Oh, no.

No, please.

Leave me alone.

Leave me alone.

No, please.

The lady said leave her alone.

Well, well.

Look at this here, Danny.

Looks like we got ourselves a couple of spitfires here.

Nothing more attractive than a woman that wants to fight us.

Geez, now these are good women. It isn't right. Shut up.

Those women say leave them alone.

Did you hear that?

Sounds like our boy here won't tell us what to do again.

So leave him alone.

I say we whip the tar out of him first and then hang him.

Then we'll come back here and finish our business.

You all right, fella?

Yeah, I'm all right.

Thank you so much. That was very brave of you.

Oh, he came to our defense when those bullies tried to have their way with us.

I'm forever in your debt, sir.

I'm Brother John Mason, and this is our wagon master, Sam Brazos.

My name's Jason Adams.

Are you traveling east or west?

San Francisco.

This country can be a little rough on a fellow traveling alone.

Thank you, sir.

Especially one who's made fresh enemies.

Mr. Brazos is right. You're more than welcome to travel with us. At least as

as Paradise Valley.

That's real nice of you, though.

Please, join us. It would be an honor.

Maybe that's a good idea.

Good.

I'll meet you outside.

This will pay for all the damages.

You won't be needing some supplies.

Supplies, I'll sell you.

But the damages weren't of your making.

I'm only sorry I couldn't do more to protect the women.

You keep your money, sir.

Thank you, sir.

Where are the supplies?

The wagon train pulled in when we were getting... Come on, try to jump.

Is that a fact?

Yeah, but they's Mormons, J .J.

Lucky they's carrying a lot of money.

And some good -looking women.

Maybe we ought to take their money. And their women, too.

Now, now, boy.

I just want to thank you again for what you did today.

Yes, ma 'am.

Where I come from, men don't treat women like that.

And where is that that you're from?

Beaufort, South Carolina.

I was a slave back there.

I'm sorry.

Oh.

I was one of the lucky ones.

My former master, he was a kind man.

Dr. Thaddeus P. Simpson.

A doctor? Yeah.

Yeah, taught me everything I know.

He taught you doctoring? Yes, ma 'am.

Would you come with me?

There's someone I'd like you to see.

Mr. and Mrs. Grisham, Mr. Adams here. He knows some doctoring. I think you

should let him look at Lizzie.

Okay, Kate.

She's right in here.

Lizzie?

Hi, I'm Jason.

Hi. Let me, uh, take... Oh, my God.

Got yourself quite an infection there.

It hurts.

Might be fixed up good as new, though.

It will.

Give me that water over there, please.

All right, you're going to have to keep this as clean as possible.

It should be as good as new in no time.

I gave her extract of willow bark for her fever.

She'll be all right one, maybe two days.

And this piece of my life's candy is for you.

Thank you.

Kate, will you join us for dinner tonight?

I would love to.

Mr. Adams, we'd be honored if you joined us as well.

That night, Brother John Mason and his followers camped under the stars, most

their number blissfully unaware that they were in mortal danger.

Aye, that's him.

It was him and another fella.

I remember, because they came in to buy supplies about the same time as that

wagon train, starting to get a little rough with a couple of the women, when

this Negro fella stepped in to stop it.

Boy, that Negro fella beat the daylight out of him.

The man you're looking for and his friend took off.

Didn't even stop to take the supplies they'd come in for.

This wagon train, is it on the Paradise Trail?

I thought it is.

A group of Mormons, sure.

Nice folk.

The leader even tried to pay for the damages to the place.

You should have seen the roll of bills he had.

Could have choked a hearth.

Did Tarvin see the bills?

I believe he did.

I'm going to ride up ahead and take a look -see.

Take cover! Take cover!

Huh!

Do it and die.

Thanks, stranger.

Name's Cooper.

Hayes Cooper.

Sam Brassos.

Hello, Tarvin. You know him?

Yeah, I know Elder

James

was so looking forward to reaching Paradise Valley

Take him to your bosom Lord

Welcome to eternal sleep.

For if you cannot join us in the valley, let him live with you in paradise.

Amen. Ow!

Ouch! Ow!

Ow! That hurts!

Ow!

Y 'all got a doctor around here?

I'm shot!

I need a doctor! I'm a doctor.

You ain't gonna touch me, boy.

You're a doctor.

Brother Mason?

He's the one that turned those outlaws around.

Cooper's his name.

John Mason, Mr. Cooper.

I'm real grateful you came by when you did.

I didn't just happen by.

I've been tracking him and his two brothers.

You a lawman?

Bounty hunter.

I thought you said you was a doctor, boy.

That's what I said.

Ain't you got nothing there for pain?

I need something to knock me out.

I only asked for it.

You think those outlaws will come back?

We can count on it.

They know you've got a lot of money.

Trading post.

They saw me pay for the supplies.

Well, that law's out there, John.

You could sure use somebody like Mr. Cooper around.

You're right, Sam.

Mr. Cooper, would you consider joining up with us?

We can pay you.

That won't be necessary.

But you'll join up with us?

Where are you headed?

We're joining up with a Mormon settlement just beyond Restoration Pass.

I'll stay with you till then.

Appreciate it, Mr. Cooper.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some burials to attend to.

Thank you.

Think Danny's one of them, buried here?

Ain't but one way to find out.

You want us to dig them up?

Have you got a problem with that?

No.

Then get to digging.

Tommy, sit down. Now.

Three to five.

You think the Tarvin brothers will be back?

Yeah.

They'll be back.

All right, everyone, hang on now. Hang on and keep moving.

Woo!

Tommy, sit down. Now.

Water down there ain't as cold as this.

That's great. I ain't had a bad foolish.

Tommy, quit looking at that outlaw.

Stop breathing.

Tommy! Oh, Mr.

Cooper, please.

All right. Help me to turn him on.

He's okay now. Oh, Tommy.

Tommy.

Thank you.

Never saw that before.

New procedure.

My old master taught it to me.

You ever been to Denver? Is that where I know you from?

Believe I struck a nerve.

Come on, Miss Peach.

What are you afraid of?

Thurman.

Shut up before I gag you with your own boot.

Really seems convinced he's seen you somewhere.

I've never laid eyes on him before.

Took y 'all long enough to get here.

Let our brother go, or we'll leave you alone.

You're a liar, Tarvin.

Nobody calls Buster Tarvin a liar.

I just did.

Who might you be?

My name's Hayes Cooper.

Famous bounty hunter?

Who's in charge here?

I am.

You gonna let our brother go?

What makes you think you're going to leave?

Mr.

Cooper, they came in here under a white flag.

The tables were turned, John.

It wouldn't matter to them.

It matters to me.

They came in peace.

They'll leave in peace.

Let them leave.

They'll be coming back.

I won't be in peace.

That's the way it's going to have to be.

We're men of honor.

Shoot that bounty hunter first. Then shoot that dark yankee.

Cooper!

Hey!

Hey!

Cooper, no!

Anybody? Lizzie.

Miss Burns?

Yes.

Are those bad men going to come back?

I don't know, Lizzie.

But if they do, Mr. Cooper and the other men will take care of them.

I think we've had enough math for today.

Instead, I think we need a little song.

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord.

He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored.

He has loosed the fateful lightning of his terrible swift sword.

His truth is marching on.

Wait a minute. I know that voice.

Take some.

Kate, that don't sound like nothing you used to sing over at the Red Line.

What'd you sing one of them for?

Back in Wichita, we all called her Sully.

Ain't that right, Sully?

Is this true?

What's he saying? Kate!

Yeah,

you little school mormon. She's about the hottest thing. Never hit the dance

floor over the red line, I'm going to tell you.

She never could sing much, but I'll tell you, she could dance. Y 'all ought to

have seen her dance.

She could stop a clock.

Shut up!

I know what I know who she was.

So you're a dance hall girl, huh?

Yes, Mr.

Cooper. I was a dance hall girl.

Can you dance as well as you think?

Is that supposed to be funny?

No, ma 'am.

But coming out here in the middle of nowhere, not knowing where you're going,

well, that's kind of funny.

What am I supposed to do?

Go back and tell him who you are.

Oh, Kate Sullivan, the dance hall girl?

No, not who you were.

Who you are.

Now.

Kate Byrne, the school mom.

What Danny Tarvin said is true.

I was a dance hall girl.

And I knew I wanted to do something more with my life.

And then I found the Lord.

I'll understand if you don't want me here.

Oh, Kate.

It's not who you were that's important, it's who you are now.

We're not going to stop loving that woman we met two months ago in St.

The woman that's become such an important part of our family.

We have lived a fateful life, we know it's terrible to soar. It's true,

it's watching us.

It was just a day's ride to go before reaching Paradise Valley. The settlers

were starting to believe that their dream might finally come true.

But J .J. and Buster Tarvin wanted their brother back, along with the settlers'

money and their women.

And seeing how the direct route hadn't worked, they decided to set a trap.

Cooper, it's a trap.

You got one minute to let our brother go, or else we're going to blow you all

to hell.

You let your brother go, you let us pass?

You got my word on it.

Don't trust him, John.

Get away.

I don't think we have a choice.

Release him.

Kate, get the kids on this side of the wagon. Let's go. Come on.

Everybody off.

Now.

Off the wagon. Let's go.

Thank you.

You'll be fine from here on out.

Thank you, Mr. Cooper.

Good luck.

Here am I.

Yes.

Finally home.

The Mormons headed west to paradise beyond the trade.

Hayes Cooper went to Texas and the Carbons went ahead.

Praise Cooper, I The Lord

is on your side

You better fly

Praise Cooper, I

Because the eyes of the ranger are upon you Ain't

all you do is gonna see When you're in Texas but behind

you

Because that's where the reindeer's going to be.
