Listen to this! Listen to this,
you fellows! You fellows, listen!
out of Richmond four days ago.
And it's rumored that Lee's
already surrendered.
(CHEERING)
The war is over!

- Here's the captain's papers.
- Get those Yanks out of here quick.
All right, you two, get this body out
of here. Get him out of here, Davis.
- Pardee, get these men out of sight.
- Come on.
Now come on, let's go.
VANCE:
Hurry it up, Mike. Hurry it up.(TRAIN BELL RINGING)
- HARRIS:
Captain Cagle?- Yes, sir.
- We've been expecting you, major.
Here's the warrant for the payroll.
Well, you brought a very small
guard for this much money.
- There's no Rebs within 50 miles.
- What about Randall's raiders?
clear out of Louisiana
with their tails between their legs.
Well...
All right. Hand it down.
Where's the station agent?
He got taken sick all of a sudden.
One of the boys took him back to camp.
Where you going?
- Back to the train.
- Go ahead.
Just stand beside it with your mouth shut
and get on when it pulls out.
I'll be watching you from this window.
Sign this receipt. And get that
money to your camp in a hurry.
(TRAIN WHISTLES)
Stop them, major! They're rebels.
- They shot the station agent!
- What?
Get after them, you darn fools!
They stole your payroll.
(GUNSHOTS)
- You all right?
- Yeah. Let's get out of here.
Fire at them, they're rebels!
(GUNSHOTS CONTINUE)
Hey, lieutenant. Ain't that a federal
offense, breaking open them boxes?
(CHUCKLING)
Ain't that a beautiful sight?
Makes you feel like a sore-eyed kitten
with a whole basin full of milk.
Yeah. What a pity it don't belong to us.
How much you figure it comes to?
$12,250.
(WHISTLES)
Lieutenant, how about making
that a neat, round sum?
Say $10,000, and us fellows
dividing up the difference?
The Army'd shoot us for that.
How'd they know about it? Who would tell?
- I wouldn't, for one.
- Me neither.
Look at us. A bunch of starved
scarecrows, whipped and dead broke.
We got nothing coming out of this war
except shriveled guts and saddle sores.
You got a mighty tempting argument.
But I kind of doubt if it's legal.
It ain't legal, Vance, or moral.
Confederacy can use that money
a heap more than we can.
You're right. Tomorrow we're
taking this to General Randall.
Well, we tried anyway.
Let's get into this grub.
The regiments broke camp and moved out.
Yeah. But where to?
I don't know. The general said
they'd wait for us right here.
Been away eight days.
Might've been attacked.
Or ordered away all of a sudden.
We better ride into Claysville and find out.
VANCE:
What's your regiment, soldier?Fifth Louisiana Rifles,
or what's left of them.
Where's Randall's outfit?
The cavalry disbanded
two or three days ago.
so as not to give up the horses.
You fellows would be wise to do likewise
before the Yanks confiscate them.
Wait a minute. What are you
talking about? What's happened?
What's happened?
You mean you ain't heard?
General Lee surrendered
to Grant four, five days ago.
Appomattox Courthouse in Virginia.
Surrendered? You're crazy.
No, that's a fact, lieutenant.
All of us gave up our guns
in Shreveport last Monday.
So the war's over. We can all go home.
