And Christ, bleeding and dying, took time in|his agony to turn and pardon a common thief.

Remember that tomorrow.

For all of you, it'll be daybreak.

But for these four men...|it'll be the midnight of their lives.

Your prayers will help them.

Help!

Help!

Help!

What's the matter? Que pasa?

Emma!

Emma!

Emma!

-Here's her purse.|-Emma!

-Emma!|-Emma!

-How's the sheriff?|-He's badly hurt.

Everybody, come on, let's go!|Get your horses and guns!

-Get your gun and horse. Let's go.|-Where?

-After 'em!|-They stole five horses!

We can't find Emma. They've taken her.

Josefa! They've taken Emma.

What'll I do? Please help me. Please!

Mr Steinmetz, we'll all help. I'll get|my horse and go with you. Come on, Jim.

You can't overtake 'em tonight|before they get to San Marcos Pass.

-One of 'em can hold that against a hundred.|-Aren't you coming with us?

It's gonna be a long hard chase.|I could use some sleep. I'll wait till morning.

Do you mean to tell me, after what's|happened, you can just go and sleep?

Yes.

And then what?

I'm gonna find them, if it's the last thing I do.

Good night.

-What do you think?|-With the woman, they can overtake us.

Taylor, stay here and hold them off|till sundown. We'll head for Elder Gorge.

We'll wait for you there.

-Please let me go!|-Later.

-Please. My father will give you anything.|-I've already got all he can give me.

Everybody, let's go! Come on!

Quinn, how about those boys back there?

Come on!

Quinn! Steinmetz! Let's go.

Get your horse, go into town and get a wagon|here. Take this man down with the others.

Primo, Murphy looks bad. There's nothing|I can do. You've gotta get him out of here.

Do what you can. I've sent for a wagon.

All we can do is wait.|Then we'll follow them over the pass.

Once they get to the desert,|we can circle 'em.

-We can lose 'em.|-They got Emma!

-I'm not going to take that chance.|-Hold it! Wait.

Primo's right. You can't rush 'em.

But don't worry about losin' her.

What do you know? Who are you? You're|a stranger. You say, "You can't rush them."

That's all right for you, but my daughter's|in danger. Maybe you want us to lose them.

I've been followin' them for six months.|I'm not gonna lose 'em now.

If I was you...

I'd pick out 12 of these men|and send the rest of 'em home.

Especially the old fella|and the lady over there.

-I can't send Mr Steinmetz home.|-He'll not do any good and get in the way.

He won't leave.

I'm sorry.

Primo just told me you don't want me along.

Well, that's right.

Emma's gonna need me|when we catch up with them.

With you along,|we might not catch up with them.

You might get hurt.|I wouldn't want to see that.

Are you worried about me?
