Turn him over.

Oh, no!

"Do not drink wine nor strong drink...

"...thou, nor thy sons with thee...

"...lest ye shall die.

"Look not thou upon the wine|when it is red...

"...and when it bringeth his color|in the cup, when it moveth itseIf aright.

"At the last it biteth like a serpent...

"...and stingeth like an adder."

Now, folks...

...that's from the Good Book...

...but in this town...

...it's five cents a glass.

Five cents a glass.

Does anyone really think|that is the price of a drink?

The price of a drink? Let him decide...

...who has lost his courage and pride...

...who lies a groveling|heap of clay not far removed....

All's quiet, sir.

Let's fall in.

Follow me.

I beg your pardon.

-I'm so sorry.|-Allow me, ma'am.

Thank you.

May I?

Thank you.

Thornton, wake up! Soldiers!

Look.

I don't care what you meant to do...

...it's what you did I don't like.

You inconvenienced this lady,|and made a fool of yourself...

...and this railroad.

Now, I want you to apologize to this....

Yes, can I help you?

If they move, kill them.

ls he with them?

He's there.

Hold your fire! Get down!

Wait till they come out.

I can nail him.

I said, wait!

What if they go out the back?

It's covered.|You two-bit redneck peckerwood.

Abe?

I solemnly promise...

...God helping me....

"I solemnly promise, God helping me..."

...to abstain from all distilled,|fermented malt liquors...

...including wine, beer and cider...

"...to abstain from liquor,|wine, cider and beer."

People marching down the street.|They'll pass by the horses.

We'll join them.

The Temperance Union?

They should have been told.

Told what?

How long can anybody in this manure pile|keep his mouth shut?

"Yes, we'll gather at the river

"The beautiful, beautiful river

"Gather with the saints at the river"

Rifles.

One?

No, three!

Maybe more, there, on the roof.

Get down.

Son of a b*tch!

Bounty hunters?

Hell, I wouldn't know.

Buck, with Abe.

I kill them now?

Hold them here as long as you can.

I'll hold them till hell freezes over|or you say different.

When I kick him out, blast him.

We'll run for it.

Give me that shotgun.

"The beautiful, beautiful river

"Gather with the saints at the river

"That flows by the throne of God"

Set?

Let's go!

Good luck, boys!

They're blowing this town to hell!

You're trash!

Now, you just hush now.

They was playing Gather at the River.

You know that one?

Sing it!

"Shall we gather at the river

"Where bright angel feet have trod"

Hurry!

"River that flows by the throne of God"

Come on, you lazy bastard!

I'm coming!

They've cleared out, for Christ's sake!

Let's go, T.C. !

Put some more on!

Let's go!

Take him !

He's mine!

He's mine!

He's mine!

I shot this one!|Look at the size of that hole!

You just dig out that bullet|and see if it ain't my .06!

You know I shot him.

You'd claim the whole thing, wouldn't you?

-Daddy! Daddy!|-Did he have any money?

Damn, I can't get his belt off!

You stupid, damn fools!

Why did you shoot this employee|and let the others get away?

I didn't! My first shot|killed this man right here!

Liar!

He shot that employee while I dropped|this bandit and them others too.

I must've killed all three of them.

What were we doing up on that roof?

Liar!

Black liar!

Don't talk like that to me.

I'm sorry.

Come on, T.C., help me get his boots.

I think this will do pretty good.

Next time, plan the massacre carefully,|or I'll start with you.

Why didn't you kill Pike|when you had the chance?

Stop!

Feathers flew like a turkey!

They shouldn't have run.

Say!

How'd you like to kiss|my sister's black cat's ass?

This is better than a hog-killing!

Get them out of here!

We're holding you and your railroad|responsible for this carnage!

lnnocent people are dead!

Women dying and mangled because|you used our town as a battlefield!

The railroad is going to pay|for our loss of blood!

We were trying to catch outlaws!

You lured them in here!

The railroad has been blabbing|about a big payload for weeks!

We represent the law!

Pike, is that you?

I can ride.

I can ride.

I can't see, but I can ride.

No!

I can't ride.

Finish it.

You boys want to move on,|or stay and give him...

...a decent burial?

He was a good man.

We should bury him.

He's dead!

He's got a lot of good men|to keep him company!

Too damn many!

I think the boys are right.

I'd like to say a few words for the dear,|dead departed.

Maybe a few hymns'd be in order!

Followed by a church supper...

...with a choir!

You crazy bastards, both of you!

Bishop, Engstrom...

...the Gorch brothers!

Amounts to a total of $4,500|and you let them ride out on you!

When the hard-money value|of these men you killed...

...less my commission, adds up to $500!

Any one of those pelts would've|not only cleared you with the company...

...but given you money to raise hell with!

We'll do better next time!

We'll do anything you say,|but we'd appreciate liquor money tonight.

There won't be any tonight!|You go after them in ten minutes!

Get them ! Get Pike and you'll be rich!

If one of you tries to quit on me...

...I'll pay a bonus of $1 ,000...

...to the man that kills him !

Let's pack it up then!

-Why should I let you go with them?|-We've been over that.

You might join them again.|You'd like that, wouldn't you?

What I like and what I need|are two different things. Listen.
