359
00:21:43,214 --> 00:21:44,955
The day your claim expires.
360
00:21:44,999 --> 00:21:48,350
Well, we have until sundown,
don't we, Mr. Stillwell?
361
00:21:48,394 --> 00:21:52,659
Yes, but I just can't have
you girls on my conscience,
362
00:21:52,702 --> 00:21:53,921
my dear.
363
00:21:53,964 --> 00:21:57,533
If I didn't make
one last try,
364
00:21:57,577 --> 00:21:59,492
I wouldn't be able
to sleep at night.
365
00:21:59,535 --> 00:22:02,321
Kind, kind, Mr. Stillwell.
366
00:22:02,364 --> 00:22:06,586
Your happiness and my sleep
are worth, say...
367
00:22:06,629 --> 00:22:09,197
$2,000?
368
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:10,807
Oh, you're so very generous.
369
00:22:10,851 --> 00:22:12,113
So very kind.
370
00:22:12,156 --> 00:22:13,201
STILLWELL:
I'm buying your troubles,
371
00:22:13,244 --> 00:22:14,376
I realize that,
372
00:22:14,420 --> 00:22:17,597
but I feel a father's
responsibility.
373
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,382
Fran!
You can't sell!
374
00:22:20,426 --> 00:22:22,341
I won't leave Leland.
375
00:22:22,384 --> 00:22:24,386
Stay out of this,
Louella.
376
00:22:24,430 --> 00:22:26,301
I don't know who put you
up to this, Mr. Stillwell,
377
00:22:26,345 --> 00:22:27,781
but we're not selling.
378
00:22:27,824 --> 00:22:30,174
Not even for twice
what you've offered.
379
00:22:30,218 --> 00:22:32,176
I see.
380
00:22:32,220 --> 00:22:35,049
You four are trying
to pull a fast one.
381
00:22:35,092 --> 00:22:37,704
Well, the price
was $2,000,
382
00:22:37,747 --> 00:22:40,010
but you'll be glad
to settle for half
383
00:22:40,054 --> 00:22:42,186
after your well
caves in.
384
00:22:42,230 --> 00:22:44,537
[ screams ]
385
00:23:12,086 --> 00:23:14,610
What are we going
to do now, Jack?
386
00:23:14,654 --> 00:23:16,786
We'll think of something.
387
00:23:30,191 --> 00:23:34,064
Hey, come and look,
Hugo's done brought in a well.
388
00:23:50,341 --> 00:23:52,169
STILLWELL:
I'll be back,
Fran Baldwin.
389
00:23:52,213 --> 00:23:55,390
You haven't heard
the last of this.
390
00:23:55,434 --> 00:23:56,739
Pardon me,
cousin Hugo,
391
00:23:56,783 --> 00:23:59,307
but you're talkin'
to the future Mrs. Byrd.
392
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:08,359
The Byrds kept the well,
393
00:24:08,403 --> 00:24:10,710
and married Fran
and Louella Baldwin.
394
00:24:10,753 --> 00:24:12,189
The family records
can be found
395
00:24:12,233 --> 00:24:15,715
in the Logan County courthouse
in Sterling, Colorado.
396
00:24:15,758 --> 00:24:18,369
As for cousin Hugo,
they paid him off,
397
00:24:18,413 --> 00:24:21,285
by trading him water
from their well.
398
00:24:21,329 --> 00:24:23,070
Next week,
another true story
399
00:24:23,113 --> 00:24:25,507
of the winning
of the West.
