What have they done to you, Ned?
Why don't you grow up?
I've seen killings,
death by wholesale,
but I found something
in the blood and dirt of it.
that kept pounding away
at the truth,
about the lost cause and
the lives we're paying for it.
That's sane truth.
It took courage
It was a hated truth.
But it shaped opinion
that taught me.
That the presses are
than gunpowder.
quite know you.

Well, I'll be danged.
People coming in
instead of moving out.
Fort Worth.
Ha!
Cough real hard, and you'd
blow the place down.
We had big dreams here,
till the panic hit us.
Somebody ought to welcome 'em.
That's you, sheriff.
They look old enough to vote.
Hi, there.
It's Flora Talbot.
You bring settlers
with you, Florie?
They swung off the trail

IN BACKGROUND]
Blair...
You loon.
Figured maybe you jumped
the fence with some jayhawk.
No, but I brought one with me.
It can't be!
But it is!
Ned Britt,
that prodigal son of mine.

Oh, I'm prettier than you.
up around Kansas.
Oh, I was spruce enough
till Clevenger's
bunch mussed me.
One of them tried some shooting.
They were after Ned.
Stampeded the herd, and...
And a boy was killed.
Something, at last,
to hang Clevenger.
Yes, sir,
Mr. Lunsford, but...
You arrest him when
he returns, hear me?
Ned will bear witness.
This is Mr. Garvin,
Ned's partner.
Glad to know you.
And Luther Wickes.
I'll make a deposition.
There you go.
Everything's gonna be
all right with Ned here.
We're not staying in
Fort Worth, Blair.
What tune are you singing?
Ben and I need a town
with enough subscribers
to support a paper.
But this is your town, Ned.
Flora, bring his partner along.
We'll show 'em.
Come along,
Mr. Garvin.
Luther, you stay here
and guard that press.
You ought to let us know
you were coming.
We'd have had brass bands
and parties galore.
I have no ties here.
Old man Brooks
went into bankruptcy
like most of the people
in the town.
Only he didn't live
to suffer from it.
And his daughter, Amy?
She moved to greener pastures.
You never heard from her, Ned?
Once.
She returned
our engagement ring.
I got it at
the Battle of Five Forks
Forget her, Ned.
I have.
Here you are, gents.
Drink up.
Ned...
there's the world:
Texas.
You own Texas,
