The Sons of Katie Elder Page #7

- What'll we tell them in town?

What Hastings said. We were

ambushed by the Elder gang. Let's go!

Let's get out of here

before they come back.

- We're going back to town.

- They'll kill us the minute we get there!

- We ain't going to run.

- l am!

How? There's one wagon, and Bud

needs a doctor. l'm taking him back.

l'll get the buckboard.

Get Bud in the barn.

Hold it, Burr.

Go on home. Get out of here.

Wait a minute, kid. We're going

to need a doctor. Go get Doc lsdell.

Go on, Jeb.

Be quick about it.

- Take off these leg irons. Theirs first.

- Yes, sir.

- Where are you going?

- Doc lsdell's. One of them's hurt.

- What's your hurry?

- Pa's in there.

Let him go.

That's it, Harry. That's far enough.

What do you want?

l want you to surrender.

Then l'll let the doctor through.

Get the doctor,

or you'll be short of a blacksmith.

- Do what he says, Harry!

- Not till we see you out here.

- Harry!

- We can't trust him, Will.

We can trust your deputies

to shoot us up.

Your gang killed

a lot of good men doing their job.

My gang? Then who killed Matt,

shot Bud and blew up the bridge?

What about Billy?

How long does it take a man

to ride to Pecos, Harry?

Eight, nine hours.

- When did you last see Billy?

- We were playing chess at nine.

We can prove we were in Pecos

at nine o'clock.

Send for the marshal, Harry.

We'll give ourselves up.

But not to you, or anyone in this town.

You get that US Marshal from Laredo

and we'll come out.

- How will l get a US Marshal here?

- l don't know.

Telegraph him, or go get him yourself.

But get him.

Go on in, Doc.

Over here.

Out.

One of them's wounded.

l want you men to go home.

Those men are my prisoners

the same as if they were in that jail.

The US Marshal will be here. Any man

who starts trouble will answer to him.

Now, break it up and go home!

Go on!

l've done about all l can for him now.

You'd best get him over to

the boarding house as soon as you can.

- John.

- Yeah?

Don't worry about him.

He'll pull through.

We'll see he gets raised right,

you and me.

What if the marshal gets here first?

lt's their word against ours. Who'll take

the word of a gunfighter against mine?

What if one of those guards

breaks, Pa?

Only a weakling breaks.

They won't talk.

Not in here, you idiot.

Do you want to blow us all up?

Curley smoked in here.

You ain't Curley!

John.

Dave. He never did

answer any questions for us.

- We've got all the answers we'll get.

- lt's worth a try.

You're not going! You step one foot

outside that door and you're dead.

You're not going.

Did Doc lsdell say anything

about changing the...?

You make one move and you're dead!

Do as l say.

Back.

Move! Move!

Right! There's one left for you.

Now, move!

Here's a present for you.

Now, get your answers.

l'm going to give you

some real good advice, mister.

This is no time for lying.

- Who ambushed us?

- l don't know.

- Answer me. Who killed my brother?

- l don't know!

Talk! You were there when Ben got it.

- Who ambushed us?

- l don't know. l didn't do anything.

When l let you breathe again, you'd

better come up with the right answers!

Pa! l didn't tell them.

l wasn't going to talk.

l wasn't going to talk.

Drop that gun, Hastings.

They shot at me. They got

my son Dave in there. Get him out!

- l didn't tell them!

- Didn't tell them what, Dave?

My father, he killed Ben. He killed him.

And my dad?

Your father found out

he was being cheated.

And Billy kept

getting closer to the truth.

Billy, too?

John...

...give me that gun.

l represent the law around here now.

We'll take care of Hastings.

l don't want

any trouble with you, Harry.

l wouldn't argue with him.

John.

This is something

l have to do myself, Harry.

Get Doc lsdell for Tom.

John.

Bud's in here.

- ls he all right?

- Doc says he'll need lots of care.

- He'll get it. And Tom?

- Doc's with him now.

Tom said it'd take

more than one bullet to kill him.

He's in here.
