You and corporal Mercers start back.
Speaker 7 (04:27):

Speaker 5 (05:26):
One other thing, Sergeant, don't forget your revolver. That homesteader
doesn't need it anymore. Gotten Quin's reporting.
Speaker 10 (05:49):
Sir, Captain, I know you're mad because I ordered you
back from chasing those sue last week.
Speaker 5 (05:55):
You didn't see what they did to that homestead family. Major,
I've seen their work before.
Speaker 7 (06:00):
There'll be more of it if we don't stop them.
Speaker 10 (06:02):
Ten miles from this post, there's a reservation of four
thousand and sous an uprising. There be far more serious
than your little band that's marauding under yellow Knife.
Speaker 5 (06:11):
Do you have enough troops to patrol the reservation, Major,
and still secure Fort Laramie?
Speaker 7 (06:15):
Here, give me just half of bee troop and I'll
run down yellow Knife in his renegade.
Speaker 10 (06:21):
My orders are to keep a constant watch on the
reservation and to secure Fort Laramie with all remaining troops.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
Yellow Knife is being supplied with rifles. Henry forty four's
I know those are repeating rifles.
Speaker 7 (06:32):
Major. I've reported this to Washington, Captain.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
Whoever is smuggling those rifles has got to be stopped.
Every brave on the reservation will join yellow Knife in
spite of your patrols.
Speaker 7 (06:43):
I've received no change of orders, Captain. We can't afford
to wait, Sir, give me Sergeant Gorse and three men,
and I'll at least find that gun runner. I'll leave
to night. Major, you will not leave? Is that a
direct order?
Speaker 11 (06:58):
It is interrupting, Uncle man.
Speaker 10 (07:01):
Oh, come in, my dear, Come in my niece. Captain

doesn't change your mind about army live.
Speaker 11 (07:16):
Are you coming to the dance tonight, Captain Quinn.
Speaker 7 (07:20):
Dance? Haven't you heard?
Speaker 10 (07:22):
I decided to hold a dance tonight, Captain, for such
officers as are available for a few civilians from Laramie.
It'll show the sue we aren't as frightened as they
might think we are.
Speaker 11 (07:33):
I see your coming, Captain.
Speaker 7 (07:37):
Do you think Washington can spare me for a dance?
Speaker 10 (07:40):

Speaker 11 (08:56):
You weren't in the war with Uncle Ned, were you?
Speaker 7 (08:59):

Speaker 5 (09:00):
I started out as a scout for General McClelland just
before Lee ran him away from.
Speaker 11 (09:06):
Richmond, and you became an officer afterwards.
Speaker 5 (09:09):
I was commissioned in the field, Miss Lawson. President Lincoln
was mighty short of officers by sixty five. They needed officers,
and I made a good one.
Speaker 11 (09:21):
Uncle Ned says, you know more about the Sue than
anyone at Fort Laramie. Do you think the rest of
the reservation will make trouble?
Speaker 7 (09:29):
I don't know, Miss, I haven't been up there.
Speaker 11 (09:33):
You mean you could tell just by going out there.
Speaker 7 (09:36):
Wild Dog is an old friend of mine who's Wild Dog,
who's a chief. He's about eighty, but he's pretty smart.
Speaker 11 (09:44):
Captain quint. If those sue did rise, would they attack
the fort?
Speaker 1 (09:50):

Speaker 7 (09:51):

Speaker 11 (10:31):
You're going to see wild Dog, aren't you. Yes, it's
pretty dangerous captain two of you walking right in among
all those suits.
Speaker 7 (10:39):
They try to reach wild Dog first. Good night, Miss Lawson.
Speaker 12 (10:58):
You are listening to Fort Laramie starring John Dayaner as
Captain Lee Quinn.
Speaker 7 (11:21):
Drop your gunbelt across your saddles side mean that Captain
Revolver wouldn't do you much good. If these sue decide
they want us, we're safe. Run on all right, sir,
let's move on.
Speaker 5 (11:45):
I wished I had policed a bully that it's wait,
most of them are asleep.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Four thousand sus in this campaign all asleep. No, we're
watch on right here. So when young Buck get himself
his first coop fighted by Spear and us.
Speaker 7 (12:08):
You wouldn't wanna stand in the way of a man
becoming a brave, would you? The sergeant.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Happen way being stopped and see him keep walking. Only
one brave we'n handle him.
Speaker 7 (12:22):
Leave him to be surgeant. Yes, sir, oh, the old lady,
the only wild dog. And you you say hockey y
yards old while you yards. Oh, let's move, sergeant, and
(12:44):
keep an eye on me. Still just standing there, say,
And I told him I'm my friend the wild Dogs.
Luckily he's from the same clan. What clan is that
white fox there it is. I'll see that medicine pole
over there with the white skin on it. That's wild
(13:07):
Dog's man. Wait out here, Sidon, Oh your Newsiyah, I
you sly, you dog. I mean if my son shut down.
(13:35):
And it's been a long time since we've talked, wild Dog.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
A long time, and you'll come now because of yellow Knife.
Speaker 7 (13:45):
Yellow Knife is leading your young men into war.
Speaker 5 (13:48):
With my people, Sue, always been warriors. It is good
to die in battle. Who now have white men's rifles
that shoot many times? And you know about the rifles.
I know soon every brave on reservation will know and
they will leave. God of soldiers make no difference. It'll
(14:11):
lead to war, wild Dog, big war. There are many
clans among the Sioux. I am chief only of white fox.
Speaker 7 (14:22):
What claim is yellow Knife?
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Yellow Knife is of two moonflan, but they are white
fox braves with him. Yeah, I cannot stop them. I
remember what it was like when I was young.
Speaker 7 (14:37):
It was different when you were young, wild dog. You
had a chance then, But now they have no chance.
They have many rifles. They have a few wild dogs,
but the white man, the cavalry has thousands of rifles.
Speaker 5 (14:53):
In the end, the Sioux cannot win. He must live
in peace or he will be wiped out. A wise man,
you know this is true.
Speaker 7 (15:05):
Yes, you are right. Yellow Knife and his braves will
be caught and punished. Some of them will die. But
if I don't stop his supply of rifles, many more
of your people will die.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
You want to know where rifles come from.
Speaker 7 (15:24):
Tell me where yellow Knife meets the white man who's
supplying them.
Speaker 5 (15:27):
I'll do the rest. You'll be saving lives, wild dog
Sioux lives, or the shake of my people. I tell
you place north of here, place you call Bright Canyon.
Speaker 7 (15:48):
Bright Kenyon. When it's over, I'll come back and we'll
smoke the pipe if you'll come back.
Speaker 5 (16:02):
If I come back, got in Quin's reporting.
Speaker 7 (16:21):
Sir, I hear you left the post last night, Captain.
Speaker 10 (16:25):
Yes, sir, you never were much of a garrison soldier,
were Oh, sir, you saw your friend wild Dog? I suppose, yes, sir, Well,
Captain and I have new orders from Washington this morning. Yes, sir,
as you know, I reported the matter of yellow Knife
being supplied with Henry forty.
Speaker 7 (16:43):
Four's you mean I can run him down?
Speaker 10 (16:45):
Major Howe, My orders to patrol the reservation and to
secure Fort Laramie still stand. We are not to go
after Yellowknife, but the importance of the Henry rifles is
recognized and we're to put a stop to it.
Speaker 7 (16:56):
Yes, sir, can you do it? I can't? All right,
take half of b troopony.
Speaker 10 (17:02):
You may have Sergeant Gorse and Lieutenant Sibruts and two
corporals of your own choosing, right, Sir? Ask the head
of your calling through the main gates of the post
one half hour before Revelly tomorrow morning.
Speaker 7 (17:11):
Yes, sir, And.
Speaker 10 (17:13):
Remember Captain Quince, your orders are to stop that gun smuggler,
not to run down yellow Knife, and if you get
into trouble there will be no reinforcement.
Speaker 7 (17:21):
Are there any questions? No, sir, then move off, Pargeant
(17:42):
Gorse yet, sir, right out here with me and take
a look at these cracks. Well one shot, pony. Rest
those mules, Captain, and they're k not engines are they

Speaker 5 (18:05):
And they're headed straight for the rim or that canyon ahead,
bright canyon, Captain wild Dog wasn't lying.
Speaker 7 (18:13):
Take five men right out ahead of Corporal Mercer's point,
make a reconnaissance of the north rim. If it's clear,
send the runner back. Actually tell the point to swing.
Speaker 5 (18:21):

Speaker 5 (18:44):
I think we've found our man, mister Seyberts. They'll be
in that canyon up ahead, and the Sergeant Courts is
scouting the north rim of the canyon. If it's clear,
we'll hide in those trees just below it. Men will
wait wait for what you'll catch him in the act,
mister c When yellow Knife comes for his rifles, Captain.
Speaker 9 (19:07):
Use that major Honeyman's orders are to get the gun
smuggler and leave yellow Knife alone.

my orders.
Speaker 5 (19:20):
Yes, it not my fault if yellow Knife gets in
the way when we move in on that gun smuggler,
