Hyah! Hyah!

Don't get- Don't get

too close to 'em!

Get 'em milling!

Mill 'em around!

I can count 20 strays...

but there's 200 more

in a box canyon...

- about three miles-

- Good, Pete.

An old man's got 'em,

and he's holding 'em.

- Did you talk to him?

- Yeah.

He said, "Come and get 'em."

How many's there?

- Like I said, about 200 head.

- I mean men.

Oh, the old man's

the only one I saw.

Hmm.

Burgess, Wallop,

stay here with Marco.

The rest of you boys,

come go with me.

Does that mean me, too?

You got ears, ain't you?

In there.

The old man was standing

right there before.

Well, he ain't there now.

Print. Cook.

Ramon, arriba.

Rutter, come with me.

Pete.

Stay here and hold

their horses, kid.

Sure glad to see you, mister.

Been waiting for hours.

Your cattle, huh? They sure do run.

And by the time

we found these here...

they was plumb run out.

You're mighty lucky

we come upon 'em...

the way they was

a-wondering.

I appreciate it.

The way I see it...

generosity deserves its own reward.

Say...

fifty cents a head?

Rounds out nice and even

that way, don't it?

I don't think I'm that generous.

You sure disappoint me, mister.

And what's more,

you disappoint these boys back here...

after they worked so hard...

and they're plumb cultus...

just as mean as they come.

So do you wanna

search your soul?

Suppose I don't.

Then you ain't gonna get your cows.

Well, in that case,

I guess we have no choice.

Move.

Hey, boy. Come over here.

Yes, sir, Mr. Culpepper.

Now we're just about right here.

I want you to ride due south...

until you come across

this little river.

Shouldn't take you more

than three or four hours.

You listening?

Yes, sir. Due south.

And then head west

right into the sun.

Over here is Castigo.

No more than

an easy day's ride.

You got it?

Yes, sir. Castigo.

I'll find it, Mr. Culpepper.

Go into the cantina,

and you ask for Russ Caldwell.

Russ Caldwell.

You tell him I've lost four men,

and I need him.

Two or three others as good as him

if he can find them.

A dollar a day and found.

You got that?

Yes, sir. I'll tell him.

A dollar a day and found.

Then get to goin'.

Now, I'm counting on you, boy.

Thank you, Mr. Culpepper.

Good-bye... Cook.

Damn kid.

He ain't never gonna

find his way back here.

Eh?

What did he say?

Oh, he wants to bet you can't

hold your hand on that jar...

and keep it there

when that snake strikes.

Yellow bastard!

Afraid of a snake!

- Excuse me, but I'm looking

for Mr. Russ Caldwell.

Thank you.

Mr. Russ Caldwell?

Huh?

You're looking at him.

Mr. Frank Culpepper-

Now cut that out!

What do you want, boy?

Go on. Say it.

Mr. Frank Culpepper
