Come on, we'll have one more drink.
Well, howdy.
What are you doing sitting there?
You're too pretty to be sitting out here in the cold all by yourself.
Come on inside. I'll buy you a nice little drink, huh?
Warm you up.
Please go away.
Well, now that ain't very sociable.
Please.
Now you ain't too good to have a drink with me, are you?
Don't touch her.
Why not?
You go away and leave her sitting here all alone,
why shouldn't she have a drink with me?
Get away from her!
Hiram, peace.
Please. Just come on.
"Peace"?
Say, where are you all from?
"The True Light."
You some of them True Lighters.
What are you doing around here?
That'd be none of your business.
Oh, I guess it is.
I don't like True Lighters,
and we don't want 'em around these parts.
Take your hands off me.
You get out of Tombstone and don't come back.
You hear me?
And if I don't, what will you do?
We'll do just like we done back in Kansas.
We'll run you out.

"The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp," starring Hugh O'Brian.
In the Frontier West, men fought over many things.
Differences monetary and romantic,
political, racial and religious.
Both good men and bad were caught in this v*olence,
and sometimes brought to their doom,
and often their quarrels became the problem
of Wyatt Earp.
I never seen nothing like it, Marshal.
I swear, if we hadn't have pulled him off, he have k*lled Odie,
like to tore out his windpipe as it is.
Wanna tell me what happened?
My husband just got angry, Marshal, because that man spoke to me.
Offered her liquor.
Tried to touch her. He's got no right to do a thing like that.
Maybe not. But that's no excuse for you to try and k*ll him, either.
He was drunk.
Sometimes my husband doesn't realize his own strength, Marshal,
when he's angry.
Wanna make a charge against him?
No.
But he better make none against me or I'll charge him with molesting my wife.
That ain't why he done it, Marshal.
They're True Lighters.
What's that got to do with it?
You heard about them, ain't you?
Yes, it's a small religious sect
up in Colorado someplace.
Fanatics. I've seen enough of them and their troublemaking.
And I told him so.
Told him we didn't want no part of him around here.
Oh, you spoke for the whole town, did you?
Some, anyways.
I ain't the only one that feels this way.
Anyways, that's why he jumped me.
- He threatened us.
- How?
Said he'd do the same to us like they did in Kansas.
He's one of them.
He'll do nothing of the kind.
We're not gonna bring up that old fight again.
Now anybody of any faith who wants to live peaceably in Tombstone can do it.
And I'll see to it. Do you understand that?
Now you go on about your business and stop causing people trouble.
They settle down around here, there'll be trouble, all right.
You wait and see.
Mr. Grant.
I advise you to curb your temper.
Next time it could get you into real trouble.
Are you threatening me, too, Marshal?
I'm not threatening. I'm warning you.
What he said is true.
There are others here who might feel the same way he does.
For instance, you, Marshal?
I have nothing against any group.
Everybody here has the same rights,
but I don't like troublemakers no matter who they are.
Come, Selma.
You needn't worry, Marshal.
We won't make trouble.
Wife, you hear me?
Kind of late to be traveling, isn't it?
We got a couple of nice hotels here.
Good campsite just outside of town
if you're planning on staying all night.
Where we go and where we stop isn't any of your business, is it, Marshal?
It might be.
Well, you can rest easy,
'cause we're not stopping here.
Who was that?
A couple of True Lighters by the name of Grant.
Leaving Colorado,
traveling all this way alone?
That ain't like 'em. They usually stick together.
I know. I got a notion to do a little checking up.
- Hey, Elmer, hey!
- Whoa! Whoa!
- Howdy.
- What's going on here?
Moving into town.
No more grubbing for a living for me.
You mean you finally took my advice and give up
on that cow pasture of yours?
I didn't give up on the ranch. I sold it.
Well, what fool did you foist it off on?
Fool by the name of Grant.
Him and the missus already moved in.
You mean that True Lighter?
Oh, was he a True Lighter?
I didn't rightly notice.
You mean he paid you enough you didn't wanna notice.
Well, what's it matter anyways?
You know what it matters. You're the fool, Elmer.
You let one of 'em in, the whole tribe comes.
Taking up all the land, pretty soon there ain't no room for no one else.
You know how it was back in Kansas and Colorado.
Now all that land ain't enough for 'em.
They're moving down here into this Territory,
taking over piece by piece and you helping them.
I didn't mean no harm, Odie.
I mean, just one.
One of them's one too many.
Well, he won't stay.
- What do you mean?
- I mean I'll see to it.
That house of yours is made out of wood, ain't it? And the barn?
Now, Odie, listen, they got a right.
Not while I'm here they ain't.
Anyways, it's no concern of yours. You got your money.
You just leave it to me and a few others that feels like me.
You just keep your mouth shut.
Giddyap.
Marshal.
Yes, Mr. Bates, what can I do for you?
I don't like to say nothing, Marshal,
but I really don't feel the same way Odie does about them.
I don't think the same way at all.
- What are you talking about?
- The True Lighters.
Now just 'cause they got different ideas than we do,
don't mean there's any harm to em.
What True Lighters, Mr. Bates?
The folks that bought my place up at Cal Creek Canyon.
Grant's the name.
What about him?
Marshal, I think you better do something.
Odie's... well...
What about Odie?
He's going out there today and burn 'em out.
Grant, come on out!
Grant, this is your last chance to get out alive.
You don't come out now, we'll burn the house down around you.
You hear me?
All right, you asked for it.
Hold it, Odie!
Drop those torches. Move back!
The rest of you just sit easy.
You ain't gonna talk us out of this, Earp.
We're citizens of this Territory
and we say these people's got to go.
You got some legal reason he can't settle here, all right,
but don't try to burn 'em out, you'll answer to the law.
You're only one man, Earp.
You wanna k*ll me?
Because that's what you're gonna have to do.
All right.
We'll see they don't stay.
Nobody will buy from them.
Nobody will sell to 'em, not even food.
They sure can't grow much around here.
There won't be nothing you can do about it, Earp.
It'll all be legal.
You're just talking, Odie.
There's not enough people that feel the same way you do about it to make it stick.
I'll get enough.
And we'll see to it no more True Lighters get in here.
Nobody will dare to sell to him.
Why do you hate him so, Odie?
Why can't you live and let live?
Ask them that, Marshal.
Live and let live.
You wanna know why I got this hate for 'em?
You heard of the Frazier wagon train
and Jericho Canyon?
You wanna hear that story again, Marshal?
Four wagons of men, women and kids
was trapped and massacred in Jericho Canyon by Arapaho Indians
and True Lighters!
Only a few fanatics, Odie.
The other True Lighters condemned them for it as much as anybody.
It was a long time ago and it's best forgotten.
Forgotten?
I'll never forget, Marshal.
One of those wagons was mine.
My wife, kids.
I'd have been with them, only I was out ahead scouting for water.
I'll never forget, Marshal.
I rode back and saw what the Indians did to 'em.
All of 'em.
My wife and...
it was men like this Grant
that set the Arapahos on 'em, gave the signal.
Men they trusted. Men they thought had come to save them from the savages,
but they only came to trick 'em into giving up the fight
and then they...
nah, I'll never forget, Marshal.
Now you get out.
Or you'll answer to me.
I don't care about your law.
What are you gonna do now?
Defend myself. I got a right to.
If he comes back, I'll k*ll him.
Hiram, was it like he said?
Jericho Canyon, was that the way it was?
What are you waiting for?
You got no more right here than the others.
I have a couple of questions.
What questions?
Why are you here apart from your own people?
It's almost like you were trying to hide out
in this miserable little place.
This is no garden spot. You'll never grow your apricots and alfalfa here.
You'll never have your own kind of church here
because no other True Lighters will ever come here.
What is it Grant? You trying to run away from something?
Get out.
You've got no warrant, and I don't have to answer your questions.
- I think you do.
- Why?
I don't think your name is Hiram Grant.
I think it's Hiram Greener and you're wanted as the leader of the Jericho Canyon m*ssacre.
What makes you think that?
I have a reason. You better come along with me.
You can't arrest me just on suspicion. It isn't legal.
Besides, you've got no charge against me.
There's a charge against Hiram Greener.
But if I'm not him, it'll be false arrest.
I'll take that chance.
I do have a charge against you.
Attempted m*rder. You tried to dynamite six men.
Defending my home.
That'll be up to the jury.
Let's get your horse.
Drop the g*n, Marshal.
I won't let you take him.
We've had enough of persecution.
Drop the g*n.
I guess this answers my questions.
You're Hiram Greener all right.
What makes you so sure?
I wired a description of him to the Marshal up in Denver.
He's sending somebody to pick up his trail and positively identify him.
We'll never be able to stop the running.
Will they never stop hounding us?
It's not persecution this time, ma'am.
This is the law. He's wanted to answer for Jericho Canyon.
That's unjust. It wasn't like that man said,
was it, Hiram?
Hiram, I want to know.
Is all this true?
Did that man say it the way it was at Jericho?
- Selma, go into the house.
- I'll tell you, ma'am.
It was the truth all right, only he didn't tell it as badly as it really was.
You shut your mouth.
For a long time, the True Lighters believed
what Hiram Greener and his men told them.
The m*ssacre was all the work of the Indians,
and they couldn't get there in time to save anybody.
The True Lighters didn't wanna believe
that some of their own people could do such a thing.
But you can't keep a thing like that a secret.
For one thing, the Arapahos refused to take all the blame for the m*ssacre.
Gradually, people learned the truth.
I never did.
He told me different.
You believed him because he was your husband.
Wife, I told you to go into the house.
No, I've got to know this.
Why do you suppose Greener had to run and hide from his own people?
Because they condemned him for it.
Today, the True Lighters want him to stand trial for m*rder in their own court.
Get up!
What are you gonna do with him?
Take him up in the hills and get rid of him.
No, you can't do that.
They'll never find him. Nobody will trace it to me.
But it's m*rder.
m*rder wouldn't bother him. It didn't at Jericho Canyon.
That wagon train came from Kansas.
They were the same breed that scourged us and b*rned us,
that drove us out into the desert.
It was the Lord's will that they d*ed,
down to the last generation.
The Lord's will on your orders?
Yes, mine as His servant.
Hiram.
You call it that, but it was only your own hate.
Even your own people drove you out of the church.
Hiram, no!
Get up!
Get on the horse.
So you'll silence me by k*lling me.
What about the others? What about the man that's coming from Denver?
He won't know where to come.
You didn't 'til today.
He'll find you.
- And if he does...
- You'll k*ll him too, huh?
You'll deal with him and all the others that come after him
the only way you know how. By v*olence.
But is that the Lord's way?
Hiram, don't do this.
Don't.
I told you, this is not woman's business. Stay out of it.
Not this time.
Please, for me, don't do this.
Do you realize what that would mean?
They'd take me back to stand trial.
If what you told me is true, you have nothing to fear of a trial.
And if it isn't?
Your soul's lost already.
Wife, leave these decisions to me.
It's enough for you to know that I'm doing this for you
as much as for me.
Is that true, Hiram?
Don't you know it's true?
Have I not been a faithful and dutiful husband to you?
Now go into the house.
Get on your horse.
Thanks, ma'am, for trying.
Forgive me, Hiram.
Get down.
This'll do.
Yeah, it oughta.
Plan to shove me off, huh?
Dead or alive?
I'll make good and sure you're dead,
but no b*ll*ts.
Nothing to say it wasn't an accident.
No b*ll*ts, huh?
What would I be doing way out here?
That's for them to wonder.
I was last seen with you.
Oh, I've got a story to tell them. Don't worry.
About how you took off chasing after some passing hoodlum
or a...
they won't believe you. They'll find you.
They'll discover your hiding place, and at the very least
you'll have to keep on moving.
Get over to the edge. Get going.
If I had my hands tied, they'll know.
They won't find 'em tied.
Hiram, do you think you can really run forever
from the wrong you've done?
No b*ll*ts, remember?
Grant!
You all right?
I'm sorry, ma'am.
Perhaps as he always said, Marshal,
"it must have been God's will."
So you could be saved and he'd not have another life
on his conscience to take with him.
I have you to thank for that.
I do.
The only time in our life together
I went against his wishes.
She found us not a half mile from the ranch.
Just after we had met up with Odie and his bunch.
I'm sorry for you, Mrs. Greener, and so are the people of your church.
If there's anything they can do for you,
you let me know.
Will they remember our people?
Any of the good things he did?
Well, I can't say that.
'Cause he's done a terrible damage to them.
I know.
He can never be forgiven it. I know.
Except maybe by God
and by me.
'Cause whatever else he was,
he was my husband.
And I loved him.
