He's going to take

that money for himself.

I've got to get help, Ruth.

You won't have time. It's too

late to go into town now.

I'll get help.

Come on!

Ah, too bad Frank

and Warren ain't with us.

And all because we didn't shoot

that Yankee when we had him.

Here they come.

Burke, you and Stone

get over behind that rock,

pick off the two soldiers

on the far side.

Gimpy and I'll stay here and

take care of the others.

Don't open fire till we do.

Gimpy, when they hit the bend,

you pick off the driver and I'll take

care of the two soldiers on this side.

DRIVER:
Get up there!

Get up!

I guess that's it.

Burke!

Stone!

Guess we're all that's left.

Let's get the gold.

Here it is.

- $100,000.

- Yeah, I believe you.

I just ain't got

the time to count it.

Let's load it in the saddlebags.

Here.

RUTH:
Get your hands up.

Nobody's gonna get that

gold but the Indians.

- Don't be a little fool.

- Don't you move and be a big one.

Ruthie, you can't stop us now.

We're gonna stay right here

until Mike brings help.

But that'll spoil everything.

After all we've been

through to get this gold.

For what? No good for the

South nor for the Indians.

Paige! Paige!

You're not gonna kill her.

We can tie her up and leave her.

All right, but make it quick.

- Mike will be here soon.

- Come on, Ruthie.

(GRUNTING)

You'll be all right

as soon as Mike comes.

Gimpy, listen to me.

He killed Frank and Warren

and he'll kill you, too.

She's right, Gimpy.

I did kill them,

and the gold goes

with me, alone.

(SIOUX SHOUTING)

(GASPING)

Friends, and once again

we are all friends,

this is a big day

for our little town.

Today, we approach a great

future for our territory.

We're going to grow and be a valued

member of these United States.

From now on, we're at

peace with the Indians.

Here is the gold

promised the Sioux,

and this is the original

treaty sent from Washington

and signed by President Lincoln.

All it needs now

is the signature

of War Cloud to make it law.

War Cloud will keep peace.

(ALL CHEERING)

War Cloud will make mark.
