in this family.

Hold it!

The first man who tries for his gun

will get a buffalo slug.

Come back here, son.

y ou making out that the death of

old friends dont mean anything to us?

-That aint the question.

-Then what is it?

-Well, its a question of loyalty.

-Go on.

y ou know what l mean.

y our wife is Kiowa, full blood.

Pacers half lndian.

Clints the only real white man.

lts gonna be a bad war. Everybody

around will be in it sooner or later.

Are you gonna give Clint the chance

to consider the situation. . .

-. . .and decide what he ought to do?

-l dont need to consider.

l told you we wouldnt get

straight answers.

Buffalo Horns our enemy because

of what he done to the Howards.

He broke Gods and mans laws.

y ou know my family is ready

to fight our enemies.

-ls that straight enough for you?

-l suppose you mean us too.

Thats up to you, Ben. Were friends

with anyone whos friendly with us.

This visit aint been friendly.

Who wants to be friendly with a man

with a Kiowa squaw?

Dont shoot! Nobody else shoot!

-How is it?

-lm bad hurt.

-Lucky it wasnt me, youd be dead.

-Bring him in. Maybe l can help.

-l wouldnt let an lndian touch me.

-We got about all the answer we need.

Then get going, all of you!

y ou shoot too quick?

No, l pulled off. l couldnt

just kill him, just like that.

-What are they doing?

-Stampeding the cattle.

-No use now!

-Theres a couple.

-Stop him, Clint.

-Pacer! Pa dont want you to.

-Why not go after them?

-Because wed be too few out there.

Harms done, anyway.

Come on in.

These are what we call

our white friends, l suppose.

lt may take more than a day, so dont

worry if we dont get back tonight.

Stay close, keep everything locked.

What if the fellas from the Crossing

come back?

Think about Ma. Take care of her

regardless of who comes.

Pacer.

Watch up yonder.

-What was it?

-For a second it looked like. . .

. . .like a man on foot, way off,

up there.

-Didnt you see anything?

-No.

lf its somebody, he might need help.

Maybe you should go see.

l dont see anything, Ma.

Pa said stay near the house.

y ou think about what Pierce said,

about joining his crowd?

-l havent paid it any mind.

-Maybe youd better think about it.

l didnt aim to, but l brought you

boys to a bad situation.

lt didnt matter when you were young,

but now as men, youll think about it.

So if you want to ride with Dred

and them, lll try to understand.

y oull go with my blessing.

y ou already said it.

Theres only one side for us. . .

. . .you, and Ma, and Pacer and me.

Oh, no.

-They shot them!

-l shouldve killed Matt Holcum.

We shouldve cut them all down.

Theyre worse than lndians!
