the government had with the Indians.

They took me away from the trunk and brought

me to an orphanage in Kansas City.

But I was happier

the Indians.

Elizabeth, you know that your father

You searched for long?

I know.

I'm not here because I'm angry.

When I found a book in Kansas City,

I knew it was about him.

Just all the way

The story was told.

So I went to all the places

which were mentioned in the book,

such as High Pines Farm.

But they were all deserted.

I know it's a lot to ask,

do you want me, please, help

my parents to find.

I do not know how you have to say it.

Your mother is deceased.

Please,

tell me that my father

is dead.

Please, I'm

half the country and traveled ...

After twelve years ...

Elizabeth, we're not

say that your father is dead.

We have your father

a long time not seen.

It has none.

He disappeared after the men

had killed your mother was murdered.

We will help your father

to search.

What we should do,

We will find him.

What has happened in Saddle Mountain?

I was not there.

You told me I should not participate

the bloodshed, remember?

Okay, wise guy.

What have you heard

On Saddle Mountain?

That they killed everyone.

Next time you keep only

better, because I have a witness.

Got it?

Why should I insinuations

and rumors?

I have a witness.

There will be some actions are needed

if you want to keep this issue.

I can not if the death penalty

continues to carry out for minor offenses.

You could.

Do you get it?

If you are the only people scared enough

makes them do anything you want.

How else do you think I

gotten the job?

So you're not always been.

I was honored when you asked me

if I wanted to be mayor,

but I have to handle things

as I think it's good.

You're doing great.

You're just a little too ...

What?

Fearful, Tether.

You're too afraid.

Yes?

What?

- Payton Timmons, on the train.

Let him.

Good to see you again.

Allow me to introduce you to

a good friend and the mayor here.

The Honourable Josiah Tether.

Tether, this is Payton Timmons

of the Central Pacific railroad.

Pleasant.

Use this table it and let

I see what you have.

This is called 'The Beast'.

Tell me about 'The Beast'.

She is a slope of four percent

on or off the unit ...

with a load of 110%.

The brake horsepower and are

unique in this world.

The boiler is double riveted

to the greater pressure to be.

This is the key to our

plans into reality.

We are already ten years

to a locomotive ...

and this is the best we

ever had.

Yes?

- I must speak Scarsdale.

He's busy.

I.

Gentlemen, this is the gateway to California ...

and it is here for your eyes.

Chancellor who wants to see you.

Gentlemen, do yourself at home. I must

briefly to talk with these gentlemen.

What is it?

- Saddle Mountain is destroyed.

Good.

I knew I could count on you.

Money talks.

- Now we're on the subject ...

Yes, yes.

I expect the delivery

the locomotive of one week.

I guess that is enough time

to convince people of Sweetwater?

This will be the same

and Saddle Mountain.

Payment in advance ...

and afterwards.

Whatever it takes.

This sounds like a great train.

- Is it well.

But this is no ordinary machine.

We estimate that in two weeks

can drive from coast to coast.

What can we achieve?

- Everything you want.

I get the feeling that Scarsdale

our underpaid.

I hope not.

For his good.

I do not know.

He gave me $ 500.

I know what you think.

He spend money just like that,

but he knows that he finally

five times as much deserves.

I've known these ladies for a long time.

They can perhaps help us.

You look lost out.

Madam, I am Thomas Kincaid,

the Sheriff of Sweetwater.

We look for a friend of ours

who may live in the mountains.

Friend who has a name?

- Yes, ma'am, William Drayton.

Does not sound familiar. You know him?

- No.

It is said that he is good

with a gun.

Actually, very good with a gun.

- Living high in the mountains.

He's a great shooter.

It is known that he appears

when people are in trouble.

Hopefully they do not intend

to scroll to ride.

You can leave those horses are better, unless

They trained for a mountain to climb.

I take care of them.

Then we have to walk.

Madam, this should be enough

for the horses to care.

Travis, wait. Are you sure

you know where you're going?

Come on, Sheriff. I have 2400 km

traveled. We are close.

So's the spirit.

Something is wrong.

- Come on, Travis.

Listen.

I hear something.

My friends that would

not really appreciate.

Guys.

I am pastor.

I'm unarmed.

Go ahead, law minister.

Put the gun from its holster.

Give it here.

We follow you for a while.

Trying to get close enough.

And be sure. This is a very

beautiful girl who accompanies you.

What do you want?

I think that you two

no longer need

but we take her along.

You stay, at least, life.

That's him.

What the hell are you doing here?

We are looking for you.

Daddy?

I love you, Lizzie.

Why did you two years

ago so suddenly?

I had gone, Tom.

Bad memories.

Where have you gone?

I lived a while in the mountains.

Lived in a while

the Blackfoot tribe.

I tried to find a place

where the past I could not find.

The past remains with us, Will.

I know.

So I came home.

Why did you find us

when you came back?

The unexpected gift

who gives us life.

I've never been so happy

I saw someone else.

Will, Scarsdale has the whole

area were taken.

This is no surprise.

He could always smell the money already.

Will, he does not

in a good way.

He takes over the villages.

Lift heavy loads ...

and kills those who

There will not want to settle.

He is not the type of a murderer.

- He's not the one who kills.

He has an army together

he called "The Company Men 'calls.

They kill for him.

Not long ago,

they went to Saddle Mountain.

They killed everyone,

except one boy.

Daddy, I want to stay with you

and handle this.

Of course you stay with me ...

but I said nothing

on this deal.

Will you not help?

You need help.

You're William Drayton.

Those days are over.

I just want a normal

life.

Tell me, please ...

you're not my daughter

brought to you here ...

so that I can engage in here

and her life is threatened.

No, they ...

- No, I have visited them.

Because I had found.

Where did you get that?

I found it, I ...

It gave me new hope and ...

I knew I'd find you

After I had found.

Your mother ...

she made me promise

we just ...

would remember the times

we had with you.

I could not keep that promise.

I had to keep looking.

I made up stories about

stray calves.

I was sometimes days.

And when I came back told

I had something about wolves.

God rest her soul.

We did not even calves.

I knew in my heart ...

you were there somewhere.

I learned a lot

while I was away.

And I still do everything

Mom taught me and what you have.

And I know that the reason

Why I am still alive ...

and why I'm here.

And that's why we have these people

Christopher Forbes

Christopher "Kip" Forbes () is vice chairman of the Forbes Publishing company. He attended St. Mark's School in Southborough, Massachusetts, and Princeton University. His brother is Steve Forbes, who has made multiple runs for the U.S. presidency and written some in-depth political and economic narratives. Always interested in art and collecting, he worked with his father Malcolm Forbes restoring the Château de Balleroy in Normandy, France, and Old Battersea House in London, England. Mr. Forbes has written numerous books and catalogues about art and collecting, including Fabergé: The Forbes Collection, co-authored with Robyn Tromeur and published by Hugh Lauter Levin. On December 5, 1985, Kip Forbes paid the highest price ever recorded for a single bottle of wine. Hardy Rodenstock (Meinhard Görke) put one of the 'recently discovered' "Th. J." (Thomas Jefferson) bottles up for auction at Christie's in London: a bottle of 1787 Château Lafite engraved "1787 Lafitte Th. J.". The bottles had been found in a walled-up old cellar, and were engraved with vintage years from the late eighteenth century. This had in itself been an interesting find for a collector of old wines, but the bottles also were engraved with the initials, "Th. J.", which was taken as an indication that they had belonged to Thomas Jefferson. Jefferson was an active oenophile and wine collector, who spent much time in France during the 1780s and whose interest in wine is well documented. The auction catalogue simply listed the value as "inestimable", and it was sold for 105,000 pound sterling, which as of 2007, still remains the worldwide auction record for a single bottle of wine. Christopher Forbes was bidding against Marvin Shanken of Wine Spectator Magazine, with Michael Broadbent handling the gavel at the auction. Rodenstock is currently in court charged with perpetrating large-scale wine fraud. It is alleged that the Thomas Jefferson bottles are fake and multiple experts and various pieces of evidence apparently support this conclusion. Rodenstock has refused to allow the German magazine Stern to have the wine's veracity tested at its expense. A book, The Billionaire's Vinegar, has been published about the affair, although it has been withdrawn from the UK market following legal action by Michael Broadbent. The film rights to both the book and a New Yorker article about the scandal have been purchased. more…
