Fort Yuma Page #3

- Are you crazy? Jonas is going with me.

- You got to stay here.

- I can not stay without you.

- You gonna have to.

- I can not.

I love you.

Forget it, I said, you can't go.

- And you love me.

- For the love of heaven, you shut up.

You're afraid.

Get out.

You know, she ain't bad for a priest.

She isn't, she is no priest, she

is a missionary. Like a teacher.

- Yeah? Maybe she could teach me.

- What?

Well you know, reading and

writing and things...

What sort of things?

Oh, you know... Only how can you go thinking

things like that? That's sacrilegious.

- Hallock!

- Yes, sir.

- Check the ammunition wagon

is riding firm. - Yes, sir.

Are you riding comfortably,

sister Crown?

Very comfortably, thank you.

Oh, and Lieutenant, I'm sure you're most

generous and respectful... I bare no title.

I'm a very ordinary woman.

My mistake, ma'am.

If I can be of any assistance,

I'll be riding just ahead.

You're very kind.

I'll try make things

not too difficult for you.

That's a comforting thought, ma'am.

I'll bare that in mind.

I have a feeling that Lieutenant Keegan

finds himself to be quite irresistible.

In these parts some women

find it herself.

- Everything is riding easy and gentle, sir.

- Thank you, Hallock.

- What are you read, Sergeant?

- Oh,I'm just passing time.

A few passages out of the Scripture.

Well now, that sounds interesting.

How about reading out loud?

Oh, I'd do that, certainly.

This is from the fifth Psalm.

But not all put their trust

in new rejoice,

let them ever shout for joy,

because thou defended them.

Let them also glorify my name

and rejoice in me.

Very good, Sergeant, very good.

Would you mind reading some more?

Oh, all right. But out Lord will bless the

righteous and comforted them in sheer.

Very good. Excellent, Sergeant.

- Very well read Hallock. - Oh, thank you,

lieutenant, I didn't know you're listening.

These psalms are my favorite.

- How about some more?

- More?

Yes, I'm particularly fond

of the next one.

The next one... oh, oh, sure... Have mercy...

upon me, oh Lord for, for I am... weak.

O Lord, heal me...

for my bones are...

Oh Lord...

Come on.

- Hallock.

- Yes, sir.

- This is it for today, prepare out camp.

- Yes, sir.

Dismount!

Those are the most beautiful

colors I have ever seen.

It's hard to imagine such dry and

desolate country looking like this.

I wish you'd could see where I

come from, I think you'd like it.

There are four changes of seasons and the

colors are different for every change.

It's beautiful all the time.

This is my home.

To me it is beautiful here.

Of course it is. I only meant..

it's lovely at this time of day.
