WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:07.000 Home, take me home to the land of the peggles. 00:07.000 --> 00:15.000 That stream let me dream beneath the sky. 00:15.000 --> 00:23.000 This old heart keeps on beating, repeating fond echoes 00:23.000 --> 00:31.000 of the brave and the bold riding high. 00:31.000 --> 00:37.000 During the 1870s, the wildest spot in the United States was the desolate region west of the Pecos River. 00:37.000 --> 00:41.000 Virtually beyond the reach of the authorities, the railroad, in pushing their way west, 00:41.000 --> 00:44.000 attracted the most vicious characters in the country. 00:44.000 --> 00:48.000 It was said that all civilization and law stopped at the east bank of the Pecos. 00:48.000 --> 00:54.000 It took one man, a lone storekeeper who was sick of the lawlessness, to change all this. 00:54.000 --> 00:58.000 His name was Judge Roy Bean. 00:58.000 --> 01:23.000 A lot of those shirts for you, Jeff. It'll probably take about three weeks. 01:23.000 --> 01:26.000 Thanks a lot, lady. I sure appreciate it. 01:26.000 --> 01:28.000 You're going home, ain't you, Jeff? Yes, Judge. 01:28.000 --> 01:32.000 You go by or ride by old Uncle Bart, would you mind dropping off this mail? 01:32.000 --> 01:34.000 Save me a trip and I'd sure appreciate it, son. 01:34.000 --> 01:36.000 I guess not. 01:36.000 --> 01:40.000 Might even give me a chance to see what the old coot's been doing lately. 01:40.000 --> 01:43.000 He stays closer to his hole than a prairie dog with a nightmare. 01:43.000 --> 01:46.000 Is that true about him being so tight-fisted, Uncle Roy? 01:46.000 --> 01:51.000 It sure is. You know, all I've ever heard him say is, how much and too high. 01:51.000 --> 01:52.000 See you tomorrow, Judge. 01:52.000 --> 01:56.000 Bye, Jeff. Bye. See you then. 02:23.000 --> 02:25.000 Blackjack. 02:25.000 --> 02:27.000 Uncle Bart. 02:27.000 --> 02:30.000 I was just reading how you broke out. 02:30.000 --> 02:33.000 I guess they know now that there's no jail can hold Blackjack. 02:33.000 --> 02:35.000 Guess you didn't believe them. 02:35.000 --> 02:39.000 Else you would have deposited that money at El Paso, like you were supposed to. 02:39.000 --> 02:41.000 What are you talking about? 02:41.000 --> 02:43.000 You know I wouldn't double-cross you. 02:43.000 --> 02:46.000 I believe you'd double-cross your grandmother. 02:46.000 --> 02:48.000 It's just that that stuff was too hot. 02:48.000 --> 02:50.000 Too easy to recognize. 02:50.000 --> 02:53.000 You know, it takes time to dispose of merchandise like that. 02:53.000 --> 02:56.000 Time enough for them to hang me, you thought. 02:56.000 --> 02:58.000 No, nothing like that. 02:58.000 --> 03:00.000 Now don't you worry, Jack. 03:00.000 --> 03:02.000 You'll get everything that's coming to you. 03:02.000 --> 03:03.000 So will you. 03:03.000 --> 03:32.000 Right now. 03:32.000 --> 03:45.000 Who was it?

04:01.000 --> 04:05.000 They say that whenever he'd make a mistake, he'd get so mad that he'd take his fist, 04:05.000 --> 04:07.000 beat himself on the head with it. 04:07.000 --> 04:09.000 He must be crazy. 04:09.000 --> 04:11.000 Too bad he didn't use a rock or a hammer. 04:11.000 --> 04:21.000 Say, the state of Texas had a lot of time and trouble chasing him. 04:21.000 --> 04:24.000 Now what are you tearing that out for? 04:24.000 --> 04:27.000 The list of the haul on that last C.N.S. robbery. 04:27.000 --> 04:30.000 Never know when them things are going to come in handy, I saved them all. 04:30.000 --> 04:34.000 You'll never get a chance to check that, Uncle Roy. 04:34.000 --> 04:35.000 Judge! 04:35.000 --> 04:43.000 Oh, Judge! 04:43.000 --> 04:44.000 Look. 04:44.000 --> 04:46.000 What's the matter?

04:55.000 --> 04:57.000 Yeah, he told me just before he died. 04:57.000 --> 04:58.000 It was Blackjack. 04:58.000 --> 05:00.000 Blackjack Hatchip? 05:00.000 --> 05:02.000 What do we do, Judge? 05:02.000 --> 05:05.000 Well, take care of the body first, we'll hold an inquest later. 05:05.000 --> 05:07.000 Come on, let's get him out of here. 05:07.000 --> 05:21.000 Bob, give us a hand here, will you? 05:21.000 --> 05:24.000 I was lying right here when I found him. 05:24.000 --> 05:26.000 Blackjack was kneeling over. 05:26.000 --> 05:29.000 He saw me, fired a couple shots, and he took off that way. 05:29.000 --> 05:33.000 Kind of a pool cat smell about this, Jeff. 05:33.000 --> 05:34.000 I know. 05:34.000 --> 05:36.000 Why would he want to kill Bart? 05:36.000 --> 05:38.000 A man who never heard of fly. 05:38.000 --> 05:41.000 And he never did a lick of work in all the time I knew him. 05:41.000 --> 05:43.000 What are you getting at? 05:43.000 --> 05:47.000 He never grew anything on this ranch, never ran any cattle, how'd he live? 05:47.000 --> 05:50.000 Maybe it had something to do with those trips he was always taking. 05:50.000 --> 05:52.000 Yeah, could be. 05:52.000 --> 05:56.000 He was gone for weeks at a time, never tell anybody why or where he'd been. 05:56.000 --> 05:59.000 I'd sure like to get a look inside. 05:59.000 --> 06:06.000 Yeah. 06:06.000 --> 06:09.000 You're not still using that old beat-up search warrant. 06:09.000 --> 06:11.000 Never hurts to be prepared. 06:11.000 --> 06:14.000 Always like to do things nice and legal. 06:14.000 --> 06:15.000 Legal?
