Saddle up, saddle up, saddle up, saddle up, saddle up.

This is the story of 26 men who rode the Arizona territory.

High is the glory of 26 men who's courage helped to build the territory.

26 men who saddled up and then rode up to answer duty's call.

26 men who lived to ride again and fight for the rights and the liberty of all.

This is the story of 26 men enforcing law within the territory.

Praise be the glory of 26 men who rode the Arizona territory.

Ride on, ride on, ride on.

The 26 men of the Arizona Rangers encountered a lot of violence.

They sprang openly from the quarrels of hot tempered men.

But occasionally we found another kind of violence.

Hidden from the light of day and springing from the twisted souls of men.

March 18, 1903, near Buxton, Arizona.

Oh, man, you scared me out of my wits. What are you doing here?

What's the trouble, Travis?

There's been another murder.

Another one?

Old man Watson found the body.

A woman again?

I'm afraid so.

Let's find out about it.

She was strangled, all right?

Same as Mary Collins last month.

She was on her way home from choir practice, too.

When they found the Collins girl, with the contents of her purse scattered around like this?

Yeah, folks figured the killer dumped her purse out looking for money.

But the killer didn't take Mrs. Norwood's money.

Think the same man killed both of them?

Well, both victims were women.

Both were strangled the same way.

And both times the contents of the victim's purse were scattered around.

But nothing was taken except the purse itself and a pair of gloves.

Don't add up. Where's any motive?

Some killers don't need a motive.

You mean the killer's a maniac?

That's the only way I can make it add up.

If there was a maniac hanging around, wouldn't somebody have noticed him?

Sometimes people who are insane seem to be perfectly normal.

Then it could be anyone in town.

Too many footprints around here to be any help to us.

Take a look over there.

Yes, Captain.

Mr. Norwood, I'm sorry about what's happened and I don't want to bother you.

But I wonder if you could answer a few questions.

Captain Reining!

What have you got?

Footprints.

Not bad.

Inside corner of the left heel missing.

About size ten.

Pretty big man, I'd say.

Think we can track him?

I doubt it.

But these prints give us plenty to work on.

Find the man wearing boots with a heel to match these prints.

We've got our killer.

Sam, it's time to get up.

Come on, get up, son.

Next coming down the road.

Thanks, Bob.

Aunt Lucy.

Guess what, Aunt Lucy?

I'm your stepmother, not your aunt.

I'm sorry, I just sort of slipped out.

There's been a lot of excitement up town.

Been another murder.

This time it was Mrs. Norwood.

Hickey Watson told me about it.

Said they found her up in the...

Mrs. Norwood?

Yeah, he said they found her up in the wood right this side of the meadow.

Same way they found Mary Collins.

Folks think some lunatic did it.

You know, like those killings back in Plainview?

I told you never to mention Plainview again.

Oh, gosh, I'm sorry, Ma.

I wouldn't have said anything about it if I knew it made you so upset.

I... I... I...

I'm not upset.

Don't you worry, Ma.

I'm not gonna let you out of my sight until I catch that fella.

Sam's not feeling well.

I... I think I'll go out and see how he is.

Did... Did you go out last night?

No.

I mean, I don't think I did.

But you... your boots are muddy.

I don't remember, Ma. Honest, I don't.

Oh, you never do remember.

Sam, what are we going to do?

Was... was it as bad as last time?

Who... who was it?

Mrs. Norwood.

Mrs. Norwood?

Oh, Sam, I thought if I took you away from Plainview,

away from the memories of those other times, you...

you might get better.

I've tried, Ma.

I've tried.

Oh, I know you have, son.

I always liked Mrs. Norwood.

You... you weren't yourself, Sam.

Why do I have to do these things?

Why do I have to be this way?

But it... it was the war.

Other men fought in Cuba.

If I had any courage, if I wasn't such a coward, I...

Oh, no.

Four people already have died on account of me.

There'll be others.

No, no, don't say that.

You're going to get better. I know you will.

Oh, your loving me won't cure me, Ma.

Well, we'll move again.

Well, we will. I won't give up.

You're all I have in the world.

You have Ned?

No, I... I married Ned's father to take care of you,

and I'm going to go on taking care of you no matter what happens.

Ma.

What'd Mr. Carter say about the sketch?

Never sold a boot like it.

That's a bad break.

Just the opposite.

Now we know the man's a newcomer, or he can afford to send away for his boots.

You got the list ready?

Yeah.

These folks moved here within the last year.

These others over two years ago.

We'll check the newer ones first.

How do we split them up?

The Allistons, the Betts, and the Paulins live west of town.

The Walkers and the Gorhams to the east.

Now take the last two, Walker and Gorham.

You handle the others.

Howdy.

Your name Walker?

Yeah, that's right.

Mine's Riding, Arizona Rangers.

Oh, pleased to meet you.

You investigating the murder?

Yes, I figure if I see enough people and ask enough questions, I might be able to...

What's the matter?

What are you looking at?

Your boots.

Oh, my boots?

Yes, I've been wanting a pair like that for some time.

What size do you wear?

Oh, uh, size eight, uh, but I think it'd be too small for you to wear.
