Where's the map?
You go when your number's up.
You go when your number's up.
I'm looking for something
with his name on it.
Hmm?
It don't seem right
to bury a man without his name.
Does it?
Which is his room? Hmm?
You lay that blanket on him.
I'll look for his war bag. Hmm?
Better hurry.
Before the flies start swarming.
Mr. Aragon. Mr. Aragon.
- Buenos dias, Jamie.
He's here.
Who's here?
- The one-legged man.
The one-legged man?
Yeah.
Jamie, you're not making any sense.
I saw him going through his pocket.
I did.
Stop.
That's what he's doing in the room
right now. Looking for a map.
A map?
Look at the gold he was spending.
The rest is buried.
He said so many a time.
There's got to be a map there.
Going to the wicked. Praise the Lord.
Whoa unto...
Stay here.
And as the wicked,
sprung up like the grass.
And all the workers of evil sprout.
It was that they might be destroyed forever.
Like sheep they are laid in the grave.
Death shall feed on them.
And the upright shall have dominion
over them in the morning.
And their beauty shall consume
in the grave from their dwelling.
Money you're after?
You're holding of the wrong man.
Miss Lucy, the room upstairs, please.
Keys in his sack.
Jamie, his rifle.
Forgot something.
Do you mind telling us who you are
and where you come from?
Mind telling me who you are?
And why you see fit
to hold the pistol on me?
Me with nothing in my hand
but the Good Book?
You were going through your pockets.
You're right.
Jamie? Is that your name?
Mighty partial to that name.
James. From the Bible.
It runs in my family.
Well?
Were you going through his pockets?
I did get my hands
in that strangers pocket,
hoping to find his name tucked away.
The room's tidy
except for a broken window.
Being a part-time saddlebag preacher,
I buried many a man.
Yes, sir. Many a man.
And I do like to get the name straight.
For a man of God,
you carry many weapons.
For my sword shall be bathed in heaven.
Isaiah 34. I go by the book.
He does know his Scripture.
All I've been spoke I've been
reading the Bible for years.
Why would this man be running
for his life from a one-legged preacher?
He say that?
He did say he was a preacher.
Which leg right or left?
Didn't say.
- There's a smart lot of difference.
A bowlegged, one-legged man,
he say that?
No. But he couldn't catch me one.
Catch me?
Did you see any barnacles on me?
A tattoo?
I'd assume that the moonshine
You still haven't told us your name.
You still haven't put that gun away.
John Pettibone Stewart.
My friends call me Peg.
I'm on my way to Texas.
In desperate need of a Bible.
