The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp

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 violence,

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 killed 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 kill 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 kill 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.
