it the Trail of hears.
But the Cherokee did not cry.
They did not speak,
they did not look.
They walked on.
But by some magic that I don't know,
some managed to escape
and make their way back,
staying off the trail, until
they found their mountains again.
And they went far back
into them and time went on.
By and by, the white man
forgot about them and passed by,
and finally left them in peace.
And that's you,
Little Tree. That's us.
That's where you come from,
and that's why we're here.
Well, now!
I reckon Willow John likes you.
- He left it for me?
- Looks like it.
- But I didn't get to thank him.
- He didn't do it for thanks.
He gave it to you 'cause you deserve it.
That don't call for no show, does it?
- I suppose not. But shouldn't I...?
- Go on to bed now.
Long day tomorrow.
Take them big shoes off,
for once and for all.
They're finally ready.
They're still wet!
You put 'em on wet and walk 'em dry.
That way they fit like
they growed on your feet.
Got rid of them clobbers,
did you? Just in time.
Got a long, heavy haul
down to the settlement.
How many jars you
reckon you can tote?
- How many in all?
- Thirteen.
Two to keep, for medicinals.
That makes... what number?
- Eleven to go.
- All right. Try it now.
- What say I put two in the sack for you?
- Three.
You're sure, now? If I put in
three, that's how many you'll carry.
- Three.
- All yours.
Don't feel like nothin' at all.
That new knife kind of
balances things out, don't it?
- How do them moccasins feel?
- Like they growed on my feet!
Now, that there is Jenkins' store.
You got good eyes. Tell me, is
there a pickle barrel out front?
- No, only some men sitting.
- That's the sign to come on in.
That's another thing to remember.
I guess new fortune's
on its way. Howdy, Wales!
- Who's the little fellow?
- My grandson, Little Tree.
Hey, Little Tree!
It was Wednesday... No...
It was Tuesday, for I'd been playing
at a dance on the Monday night.
I come through the settlement
and I seen Smokehouse,
Turner, you know, police.
I'm talking with Smokehouse
and this big shiny car comes
pulling into the filling station.
It hit me right off! I said to
myself, that's a big-city criminal.
Smokehouse asked him,
"Where you from?"
He says, "Chicago. "
Meantime, pulling
Smokehouse aside, I say,
"He says he's from Chicago, but
he's got an Illinois tag on his car. "
Old Smokehouse come down
on him like Judgment Day!
He was jumpin' and sayin' to him...
Let's give it the acid
hest, Wales. Here we go.
Elegant!
Hey, Little Tree, come over here.
Thank you.
Would you do an old man a favor
