That's the ashtray.

People used to come

here with their family.

Professor, I think we have solmething.

This is it. Crossfire!

Put it there, partrner.

I don't know whether you're

clever or just plain lucky.

Both.

Yes. It happened here in 1886.

Right. Let's separate

and see what we find.

I'll go down this end of town

and you go that way.

Right.

I guess I should congratulate

you on your determination...

TRAVEL:

JULY 1ST 1886

Where the hell did you come from?

I was right here, sir.

You scared me. You must have indian blood or something...

to walk so silently?

I'm looking for a man.

Hell. Everyone is looking for something.

This is not an information office.

It's very important to me.

He is my height.

Has white hair and a long white coat.

Ah, yes. I saw him.

He was here a while ago.

Killed three men.

I hope he is your friend.

- Whre did he go?

- I don't know.

He asked me about thez old rattlesnake...

- river.

- Much obliged, sir.

What's this for, dad?

Well, Sheriff...

In the old days...

when the bad men went

into the saloon to drink...

they left their children

here to dry up.

Is that true, mum?

No. This is where boys fall off...

and break their heads.

Very good, Sheriff.

- Time for a you know what?

- Bath.

- Yes.

- Daddy, save me.

Crawford?

Crawford!

TRACKING:

Hey, lady. What's going on?

Well, I suppose that

it's time you knew.

I'm living proof that you

are not crazy,

professor Mckenzie.

I'm a human being of flesh and blood.

With one interesting feature.

I was born 600 years after you..

600 years?

I come from 2586.

2586?

I'm one of your time travellers.

One of my time travellers?

How many of you are there?

TRACE:

MAY 15 1986

Help me to understand.

In this skeptical century,

I thought you would be

the only one that could understand.

You've discovered part of it. It was your thesis.

Yes, it was a bit naive...

- Naive?

- Good, you were a rookie.

Why are you telling me this?

Professor, I came back

in time to find you.

Because I think you can help me.

You can of course.

And so I went back.

- Back? Where to?

- To 1866.

1866?

I've been on a horse

and rode from here...

to the river.

One hundred years ago

called Old Rattlesnake.

And I was here.

You talk about it naturally,

travelling 100 years...

like someone caught in heavy traffic.

Well, I expect you to be shocked.

But I do wish you to get over it quick.

Because I need your help.

I need your mind, your books,

and all the information you can find...

about this town.

Our world in the future is not perfect.

But we haven't had a war in 80 years.

Why are you here?

To fing Joseph Cole.

And who is he?

The man in the photo.
