Rawhide!
Hyah!
All things come to them who waits.
Hm?
Well, look, we got plenty of good grass,
lots of good water around here.
Anything a man could ask for.
You mean anything a steer could ask for, don't you?
Yeah, that's what I said.
Yeah, I guess that's what you did say, Pete.
You getting hard of hearing?
No.
You know, a couple days on grass like this
is gonna put ten pounds on those beeves.
Yeah, I better go tell Mr. Favor.
No, you don't. Listen, I have told him
about flooded streams,
burned-up grass, dried-up waterholes...
He's even getting ready to run and hide
when he sees me coming.
Well, he's due for some good news for a change
and I'm gonna take it to him.
Kiawah squaw.
I wonder what she's doing out here all by herself.
She might not be all by herself.
You! You!
Strong brave men.
You would brag how you killed a woman?
We weren't gonna hurt her.
He knows that.
Quince.
You seen Rowdy or Pete?
Oh, not for quite a while, boss.
Still kind of hanged-over from that keg
you let Wishbone open last night.
I haven't been looking for Pete or Rowdy or nobody.
In fact, I was kind of hoping
I couldn't even see me.
Gypsy?
Think you could carry out an order for once
if I gave it to you?
Well, what's the order, Mr. Favor?
Ride flank for Quince, keep it in the strays.
You think you can do it?
Sure, why not?
Let's go, Jim.
I don't see nothing no more.
Track's disappearing all of a sudden.
Shouldn't, this kind of ground.
They've been brushed.
No place to go.
No place to set out to from here.
Might as well get back to the herd.
That's where Rowdy and Pete will show up if they're able.
Yeah, I guess so.
I guess we'll have to get back to the herd
and wait.
That's the trail boss
coming in now, lieutenant.
Better tell him.
Mr. Favor, Lieutenant Meadows.
Fourth Cavalry, Mr. Favor.
Lieutenant.
I thought I better warn you, sir.
An Indian named White Eyes just came off the reservation
with a Kiawah war party.
You better keep an eye out, he's ready to go after
anybody who's got white skin.
We'll do that.
Obliged for the warning.
Can't the army hold that half-breed?
Oh, we've had enough chains on him to hold a buffalo.
You see, he got sick.
The Indian agency sent him home to die.
Well, that was their mistake.
He wasn't anywhere near dying.
Matter of fact, he's all around us right now.
He's got enough Kiawahs to wipe us all out
if he feels like it.
Does he feel like it?
I'm afraid White Eyes is the only man
who can answer that question.
I'll ask him when I run into him.
Oh, lieutenant,
uh, two of my men disappeared.
We followed their tracks till they gave out,
but it seems they have been brushed out.
How long has it been since you've seen your men?
Twelve hours.
Uh, we'll do our best to see if we can get 'em back for you.
If they can be got back.
Anything me and my men can do to help?
No, that's what the army's for, Mr. Favor.
Look, I've gotta keep this herd moving,
but the men that are missing, well, uh...
they're good men.
Well, we'll do our best, Mr. Favor.
Why, that lice-bitten lieutenant.
If he knew half as much as White Eyes
he'd be a general.
What do you know about this White Eyes?
Well, he's part white.
At least, white as he ain't all Indian.
He used to tear up the country, raiding, murder,
killing anybody he can.
And things.
Well, bed the herd down.
You, Scarlet and Bailey get working at it.
Well, Mr, Favor, you, uh,
fixing to let the army locate Pete and Rowdy?
We'll move the herd out in the morning.
I figured you'd say that.
You figured it right, Jim.
So let's get working at it.
The horse soldiers have gone to the great herd that moves.
Now the horse soldiers chase rainbows.
It is a pursuit they will tire of.
We must act quickly.
We must not act quickly.
Oh?
You have a reason why we must not?
You are the reason.
The white skins in the prison
made it difficult for me to go on living.
That is for all to see.
Whether you understand it or not, Anko,
I must leave.
You will crawl back to your own?
Would you have it otherwise?
I would not give in.
I would fight.
Until none of us was left to fight.
These are your people.
Would you have them killed?
I would do more for them than you are doing.
I would stay with them.
I would not leave them.
Even though the white man had made me sick.
I would not leave as you are leaving.
I understand you.
Because I understand,
I will not name you
chief to follow me.
You live out of your heart.
Your heart is not guided by wisdom.
What I do will bring peace.
You do not want that.
My people will do what is planned.
I have heard you,
and I will obey you,
but let it be known that I believe you are wrong.
I think that death will come to our people
because of you.
Is there one here who doesn't understand what I mean?
We have very little time.
As long as you are alive they will do as you say.
Will that make you happy?
I have outlived my happiness.
All that remains is to do what must be done.
Help me to my feet.
You cannot stay on your feet.
Strength is a thing
one must rise up and meet.
It will not come to you when you are lying down.
Let me take care of you.
Let me put you down gently on a bed of reeds.
Let me run and fetch for you.
Let me be near you.
My people do not believe it,
but unless something is done,
the whites will swallow us.
You do not trust us?
We are Kiawahs and you still do not trust us.
It has not made any difference all these years.
You are not as you say.
You are not Kiawah. You are white.
You will help me to my horse.
And you will see a Kiawah ride away.
All right, break it up. Double guard tonight
in case the Kiawah try for the herd.
I want the search party out before daylight.
The rest of you turn in.
Won't do no good.
They're dead.
Death card.
Injins killed 'em.
Don't let him spook you.
He don't know nothing from cards.
How do we know the cards are wrong?
They're cards, ain't they?
I know Rowdy and Pete are no longer alive.
Oh, you do, do you?
Well, tell them how you got your name, Gypsy.
He's a fortune teller.
At least that's what he said when he signed on.
The cards know.
The cards know how to scare some of the jaspers around here.
All the card says was that two men
you didn't know before you signed on
was gonna be killed by Indians, right?
It said I'd be killed too.
Because of the two men.
The card say how?
Somebody would fire a gun and I would die,
but not because of the gun.
It's got him so spooked
he's trying to spook the rest of you for company.
Boo!
See what I mean?
You sure showed that Gypsy, Mr. Wishbone.
Sure did.
Didn't I?
Did you?
Gypsies. Who believes in them?
I do.
Are you gonna get that...?
I know.
Quince.
I hear 'em. Dowse the fire.
Wishbone. I heard it.
Break out the rifles.
What is it, Indians?
Let go.
If you're too scared to fight,
then find a hole and crawl under them fool cards of yours.
Never heard of Kiawah fighting at night before.
First time for everything.
We talk.
They'll kill us.
We talk.
Anko.
The one who shot.
We want him.
It was a mistake.
We will talk.
"Tatain."
Kiawah war chief.
Satanga.
My men?
They are alive.
What do you want for them?
Beef?
No, 30-40 miles.
Soldiers search for Tatain.
The army know me as an enemy of the white man.
One place they will not look for me is among white men.
You mean, you and your men wanna go along with us?
If the army comes to you again,
they will have no reason to inspect your men.
Unless you give them a reason.
How far do you want to go?
The Black Pass.
That's Cheyenne Pawnee country.
You won't find any friends there.
I do not search for Indian friends.
You are not Indian, are you?
I am a dying man.
If I die among those with whom I was born,
the soldiers will be satisfied
that the Kiawah they search for is only a white man.
My people will no longer be hunted down.
What about my men?
Satanga will go with us.
The others will return to our hostages.
When I have reached Black Pass,
Satanga will return
and release your men.
If I say no?
Many of our people are hidden.
You are alone.
So you cannot say no.
Through the patrols to Black Pass...
That's all?
You have my word...
if you keep yours.
I have not decided who will wear it.
If I wasn't here, and they aren't who they are,
I'd swear it was an Irish wake.
Same thing.
Death chant for a chief.
Well, the army's wasting money chasing him.
He's gonna die anyway.
Well, you'd better all make sure he doesn't.
He's gotta reach Black Pass
as far as Rowdy and Pete are concerned.
Put him in the squire wagon.
Mushy, fix a bed.
Go.
Satanga.
Where you go, I go.
It has always been so.
It is best this way.
All right, let's flip those saddles,
I wanna be in Black Pass in three days.
Come on, let's get moving.
Mr. Favor!
I don't wanna be part of this, Mr. Favor.
I know you don't want your two men killed,
but I don't wanna be killed because of them.
I want my pay.
You got any other reason but the cards, Gypsy?
I got a right to it.
All right, you'll get it.
After White Eyes leaves.
I can't take a chance on you spoiling things, can I?
And after all your hoodoo talk,
you'd just have to tell somebody, wouldn't you?
All right, you can keep my pay.
I don't want it.
Gypsy. Gypsy!
Bailey, hold up!
Whoa, boy.
Look, uh, one of my men took off because of you.
He's kind of superstitious and he might talk.
Talk might get back to the army.
You sent him.
You should have stopped him.
Shot him if you had to.
We're doing everything we can to protect you,
but we're not gonna kill to do it.
Now, he was that scared,
he might get clean out of the country
without the cavalry finding out.
Two of your men will die if the troops come.
Look, you're part white.
Can't you understand part of our side?
I am all white.
And there are two more
with the same blood in their veins,
a brother, a sister.
It is those two who must bury me
and proclaim me white.
Well, we both hope you make it.
We'll do everything we can,
but we can't figure on the cavalry not coming back.
I'll send Wishbone over to cut your hair.
Bring you some drover's clothes.
Tikana will not see another sunrise.
He will not see another sunset.
Who's Tikana?
My brother.
Well, all things considered,
I'm sorry about your brother.
A white man is sorry that an Indian is dead?
I admit it.
The spirit of my dead brother thanks you.
Anko.
Why are you here?
It is time for them to die.
They must be left alive
so that Tatain may travel safely north.
Tatain himself is about to die.
He is still your chief.
He was my chief when he rode before us.
When he led us in battle.
You speak like this to a woman?
I would speak this way to Tatain himself.
Then you will wait for him to come back.
We both know he will not come back.
He will come back.
Then you will speak to him the way you spoke to me.
You will eat.
No.
Thanks, though.
Do not thank me.
When I remember what your people did to Tatain,
how they hung chains on him,
made him sick and old before his time.
I could kill you myself.
It wasn't us that did that to him.
One rattlesnake is not like another rattlesnake
yet both carry death in their fangs.
You have a god.
Then pray to him.
Pray to him that Tatain reaches his destination.
Alive.
No, thanks. Don't want any.
First sign of life we've seen in days.
Yeah, he's riding up from the south.
Yeah, that's kind of funny.
I want him.
The rider on flats,
Cal Stone wants him.
Split up here.
Stay where you are.
I ain't done nothing.
Ain't nobody said you did.
Then why are you shooting at me?
Cal Stone wants to see you.
Who's he? You ask him.
I ain't got no time, I'm headin' for town.
Mister, you got plenty of time.
You was riding all alone in an Indian territory.
What makes you so brave?
I ain't brave.
I was just heading for the nearest town.
I ain't interested in where you're heading for.
Where you heading from?
I told you. I left a trail drive.
You up and quit a trail drive
in the middle of Kiawah country?
Yeah.
Why?
Me and the trail boss, we didn't get along.
You and me ain't getting along either.
Look, what do you want from me?
Try the truth.
I'm looking for a Kiawah.
A Kiawah chief.
Look, all right, all right.
There's two Kiawahs riding with the herd.
Hear any names?
Only one of 'em.
White Eyes.
Why would White Eyes be riding with a herd?
He's trying to avoid the cavalry patrol.
And you left the drive to find the cavalry?
I was afraid.
It's in the fortune telling cards.
What's in what fortune telling cards?
Death.
Murph, get back to the ranch, bring Jenny.
Bring her where?
Where's the herd now?
About two hours ride from here.
Which way are they headed?
Due north.
Herd can't travel more than eight miles a day.
You won't have any trouble to find us.
Well, where will you be?
Close to the herd as we can get.
We'll be watching for you.
Cal, you sure you want your wife around?
She's got a right to see what happens to White Eyes.
More than anybody else in the world,
she's got a right.
Give him his gun.
Jenny, we don't have to wait no longer.
Why did you send for me?
White Eyes ain't more than a stone's throw from here.
White Eyes?
He's with that trail drive.
Couldn't get to him in that prison,
couldn't get to him on that reservation,
but I can get to him now.
But I don't want to see him at all.
l-I don't want to be there.
I want him to see you.
What good will his seein' me do?
It'll remind him of what he done to your pa.
He'll remember you.
Especially I want him to remember you.
I never asked you to find him.
You're acting like you're sorry I done it.
I am.
But Jenny, I done it 'cause I love you.
You're doing it because you're filled with hate.
You've always been filled with hate.
White Eyes is just an excuse.
It wasn't hate made me marry you
when no other man would.
Did you want a reward for marrying me?
I love you, Jenny,
and I shouldn't have said what I did,
but that don't make no difference with White Eyes.
He's gonna die, and you're gonna be there.
They're making camp. Good. Let's go.
Mr. Stone, I don't want to go back.
You're goin'.
I told you about White Eyes. I even brought you to the herd.
That's right, and now you're going back with us.
No.
Suit yourself.
But if he tries to stay behind,
blow him right out of that saddle.
Mr. Favor.
Yeah.
You'd better bring in some of the boys.
Yes, sir.
Keep your heads down.
My name's Stone. You the trail boss?
Name's Favor.
I understand you got a couple of Kiowas riding with you.
Do you see any, Mr. Stone?
You. Come here.
You know this man?
I know him.
Says you're hiding a couple of Kiowahs.
I didn't want to tell him, Mr. Favor.
Tell him what?
Well, you got no right hiding White Eyes anyway.
If I was hiding White Eyes, I'd be the judge
of whether it was right or wrong, wouldn't I?
I don't care why you're doing it,
all I want is White Eyes.
Well, you're a long time answering.
What makes you think I'm gonna answer at all?
Where are they hiding?
Supply wagon.
All right. Drag 'em out.
We keep supplies in the supply wagon.
Got any objection to my finding out
if that's all you keep in the supply wagon?
Plenty of objection.
You'd put up a fight to save an animal
that swears he'd kill every white he sees?
I'll put up a fight to stay boss of this outfit.
Jenny.
Yes.
Come here.
Jenny's my wife, Mr. Favor.
Ma'am.
You're not gonna shame me before strangers, are you?
I've got to show them what kind of a man they're hiding.
You promised that nobody would ever look at me.
Turn your face, Jenny.
Look.
Go on. Take a good look.
Well?
Ma'am.
Did White Eyes do that?
Tell him.
He was one of them.
Now, where is he?
I'm sorry for you wife, Mr. Stone.
Is that all you've got to say after what you've just seen?
You'd better leave now, Mr. Stone, you and your men.
Good thing about a man driving a herd:
you can't hide 3,000 steers.
I'll be back.
She could have been a real pretty woman.
You know who that woman is?
I saw her face.
It'd be a hard face to forget.
Yes.
Is that all you've got to say about her?
Yes.
You're gonna send your man here back to your war party,
with orders to return with Rowdy and Pete to the herd.
So that you can turn me over to the Cavalry
without fear of what will happen to your men.
If I didn't turn you over to them,
you don't have to worry about being turned over to anyone
until you get to Black Pass.
Satanga.
Can we trust him, Tatain?
Do as he says.
If you betray my chief...
It's gonna take Stone and his men a day's hard riding
to get to Fort Scott. Figure another day to get back.
That's the time you got. You'd better use it well.
Now, get a horse from the remuda.
He is my blood brother.
A good man.
Yeah.
But at what?
Free the white men.
The great herd could not have reached the Black Pass so soon.
It has not.
The why do we free the white men?
Tatain has ordered it.
Why does he order us to free the hostages?
The chief of the great herd gave his word.
Do we hold the white man's word sacred?
Your orders come from Tatain, not the white man.
If Tatain had ordered us to fight,
I would fight.
If he sent orders to burn the white men,
I would burn them.
Those are a chief's orders.
The orders he was bringing were not a chief's orders.
From this day,
I am chief.
From this day, we are men,
not frightened dogs.
I hope you're right, Mr. Stone.
You know, you're making a very serious accusation
against the trail boss and his men.
I know I'm right. This drover saw White Eyes
join up with the herd. My wife can identify him.
Lieutenant,
if you capture White Eyes,
two men, two white men, they'll die.
I have no choice, ma'am.
Well, I've got one, and I ain't going back.
There's death in the cards, and it ain't gonna be me.
Don't be a fool.
Look, I've faced them once,
but I ain't gonna face it again.
Stop that man!
Fire over his head.
The fall broke his neck.
It's taking too long.
Satanga is dead.
He was killed by Anko.
What about my men?
The were alive when I left the camp.
He has made himself the new chief.
He is going to lead them against the whites.
He plans to get all the other tribes together.
I'm taking you back to Fort Scott.
You will accomplish nothing
by giving a dying man to the Cavalry.
They cannot save your men.
Then who can?
Mr. Favor.
Paibada, go.
I'm not gonna have to take you to Fort Scott.
You asked who could save your men.
I can.
I took your word once.
You couldn't help yourself then.
Can you help yourself now?
What about your heading north?
Not any longer.
There are more important things.
I must go back to my people.
Just to save my men?
To save mine.
All right. I'll go along with you.
I'm sticking with the stories that White Eyes isn't with us.
You men will have to decide what you want to do for yourselves.
Get rid of that Indian rig on that pony.
Get back here.
Hold it.
Mr. Favor, according to information received,
I have reason to believe you are harboring a fugitive.
The penalty is five years for every man involved.
I'd be the only one responsible if there was a fugitive here.
You turn him over to me and I won't press charges.
I said if there was a fugitive.
Any objection to our searching your outfit?
You ought to start with the supply wagon.
Dismount!
You two search the supply wagon.
He was there. They must have hid him somewhere else.
We're going through your entire outfit.
We're breaking noon camp in half an hour.
You've got half an hour.
Are these all the men you've got?
Rest are riding the herd.
We'll start with these. Have your men line up.
You heard what the lieutenant said.
I want Mrs. Stone with me.
Come on.
Are you sure you could recognize White Eyes
if you saw him again, ma'am?
Will you look over these men, please?
Cal?
Lieutenant, I saw all the men.
None of them is White Eyes.
Are you sure?
I'm sure.
Well, it looks like there's no Indians here, Mr. Stone.
Then maybe I was wrong.
All right if we go back to work?
I'm not apologizing for wasting any of your time.
I didn't expect any, lieutenant.
Goodbye, Mr. Favor. Lieutenant.
Now we'll ride out and check the other drovers.
Prepare to mount.
Mount!
Murphy, take my horse. I'm riding the buggy.
How come she didn't point you out?
Perhaps she didn't remember.
Yeah.
Let's get going.
I seen you knew him.
I've known you a long while, Jenny, you can't fool me.
Then why didn't you tell the lieutenant?
When you didn't identify him, I knew there had to be a reason.
A good reason.
Cal.
You don't never have to tell me about White Eyes
if you don't want to.
Oh... Oh, now I want to.
I was too ashamed before.
Pa and some other men got drunk.
Pa had to show the big man he was.
They raided White Eyes' village without any reason at all.
The braves were away,
so they killed women and children.
Jenny, don't...
No, l... I have to finish, Cal.
White Eyes returned and there was a fight.
The house we were in caught on fire.
It was White Eyes who pulled me out of that burning house.
Paibada.
You be needing some rest.
He has been sick a long time.
Take this.
It will help you speak to my people.
Wear it.
They will listen.
They must not travel the path to war.
That path for them is coming to an end,
just as my path is coming to an end.
It has been good.
All good.
Take me back to my people.
Up north?
The Kiowahs.
Tatain.
You killed Tatain.
You were a fool to bring him here.
I did not kill him.
Tatain gave me this before he died.
He wanted me to speak to you.
The Kiowahs listen only to their chief.
I am speaking for him.
Because you wear the medallion around your neck?
If a woman wore the medallion around her neck,
would she then be a Kiowah chief?
Is it that you are afraid of his words?
Among the Kiowahs,
a man must win the right to speak.
Tatain said to free my men.
Cut them loose.
Tatain said the old days are over.
He wanted you to return to the reservation,
to live in peace.
He died trying to bring you these words.
They're good words.
Hold this until your people select a new chief.
How do you feel?
Well, a lot better than I did, I'll tell you.
Yeah.
So do I.
They're going back, looks like.
Head 'em up!
Move 'em out!
Rollin', rollin', rollin'
Rollin', rolli" Rollin'
Keep rollin', rollin' Rollin'
Though the streams Are swollen
Keep them dogies rollin'
Rawhide
Through rain and wind And weather
Hell-bent for leather
Wishin' my gal Was by my side
All the things I'm missin'
Good vittles Love and kissin'
Are waiting at the end Of my ride
Move 'em on, head 'em up Head 'em up, move 'em on
Move 'em on, head 'em up Rawhide
Let 'em out, ride 'em in Ride 'em in, let 'em out
Cut 'em out Ride 'em in

Rollin', rollin', rollin'
Hyah!
Rawhide!
Hyah!
Rollin', rollin', rollin'
