Horizons West Page #6

- No gun.

Tell them they'll be no lynching

even if we have to shoot them.

Tiny!

Take Dan to the basement

of St. David's church.

When things quiet down we'll

take you to Houston. Get going!

We got to pile everything

we got against that door.

Hold it Major.

Sit down Major.

You'll be a lot safer down here.

It sure seems odd

you're being my prisoner.

I can't get used to it.

Tiny, don't give it a thought.

- No hard feelings?

- None.

I sure wish we'd stuck together.

Over at the Circle H, I mean.

It wasn't in the cards.

Mind if I ask you something?

Go ahead.

Something happened to you.

Major, I...

Go ahead and say it.

Somewhere you lost ideas

like pity and mercy

and understanding.

It was like you was trying

to fill the whole world around you.

What's it all about?

I'm not just certain.

Something deep inside me.

Maybe it's cruelty and ambition

together, a driving force.

Maybe it's because I want

to be the biggest man in the state

but I don't know how to do it

any other way.

Alright Tiny.

Get away from those stairs.

This ain't the war Dan.

You better give me that gun back.

Major!

Take my horse.

Major please.

Ira, somehow it doesn't seem right.

Father against his own son.

Would it be better

brother against brother?

No Mother. This time it's not

Neil's job. It's mine.

I'll bring him back for trial.

I don't know what to say.

I don't know what to ask for

in my prayers anymore.

Neil. I want you to know,

I'll be waiting.

- You speak English?

- Yeah.

Can you tell me where

Dan Hammond's office is?

- What do you want to know for?

- I'm his father.

That two story adobe over there.

Thank you.

Hello Dad.

Hello son.

This is kind of unexpected.

Dan, you're going back with me.

You know that's impossible Dad.

You'll back with me and

return everything you've taken.

I'll go back

but in my own sweet time.

I got titles to everything I own.

I'll not give up anything.

You'll give everything back

and stand trial for murder.

Give me your gun Dan.

Look around for Mrs. Hardin.

You've done your last killing Dan.

So you say?

I'm not Tiny trusting you,

or Tarleton without a gun.

Drop your gun Neil.

Just step back here Mrs. Hardin.

Don't make any noise.

Where'd you tie your horses?

Dan!

Dan!

Dan!

Honey...

I guess we'll have to wait a while

to build our empire.

Dad, I...

Dan.

No!

- Looks good, huh?

- Looks wonderful!

It'll be the first Texas herd

into the railroad at Abilene.

Ought to make some kind of history.

- I'm proud of all of you.

- Be seeing you.
