00:01:49,709 --> 00:01:52,778
Wanna know what kind
of boy he was?

2
00:01:54,814 --> 00:01:59,785
Well, I myself, his cousin,

3
00:01:59,787 --> 00:02:03,355
am the only one living
that knowed him that early.

4
00:02:06,893 --> 00:02:09,595
Knowed him the day he was born.

5
00:02:12,432 --> 00:02:17,402
Lived with him most of the time
until he was 21,

6
00:02:17,404 --> 00:02:19,638
and left home for good.

7
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:09,908
His Pappy didn't drink,

8
00:05:09,910 --> 00:05:12,911
swear,

9
00:05:12,913 --> 00:05:14,980
play cards.

10
00:05:18,384 --> 00:05:22,020
And them were drinking,
cussin', quarrelsome days.

11
00:05:26,693 --> 00:05:29,094
I was running out of the woods,

12
00:05:29,096 --> 00:05:32,364
and he's got that paint
all over his face.

13
00:05:32,366 --> 00:05:33,732
He grabs me and he reaches down

14
00:05:33,734 --> 00:05:37,803
and picks me up,
and he lines him up,

15
00:05:37,805 --> 00:05:42,574
nice and steady-like,
'cause it ain't no squirrel.

16
00:05:42,576 --> 00:05:44,843
Shot rings out.

17
00:05:44,845 --> 00:05:46,678
And your Uncle Josiah...

18
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,748
A little slab of bacon
with a hoecake...

19
00:05:53,052 --> 00:05:56,855
A little cornbread
and milk every day...

20
00:05:56,857 --> 00:05:58,990
He said he never had
a prettier target.

21
00:06:02,495 --> 00:06:04,629
And he was satisfied.

22
00:06:47,507 --> 00:06:49,941
You hoe?

23
00:06:49,943 --> 00:06:52,978
Yes.

24
00:07:04,757 --> 00:07:08,059
Do it right.

25
00:07:41,595 --> 00:07:45,730
What did you read today?

26
00:07:45,732 --> 00:07:47,833
About Noah.

27
00:07:52,738 --> 00:07:57,008
He lived to be 950.

28
00:08:04,217 --> 00:08:08,220
Will you stay with me?

29
00:08:08,222 --> 00:08:09,688
I'm here.

30
00:08:26,673 --> 00:08:29,708
She couldn't read
or write none.

31
00:08:32,678 --> 00:08:35,847
Had to make her mark, instead.

32
00:08:39,252 --> 00:08:40,785
Cousin could.

33
00:08:45,091 --> 00:08:47,926
Taught hisself.

34
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:22,894
She was a believer.

35
00:09:27,199 --> 00:09:30,602
Now you can mark your place
in your book.

36
00:09:33,687 --> 00:09:35,607
She knew so much
of what she believed

37
00:09:35,609 --> 00:09:37,809
was yonder.

38
00:09:43,215 --> 00:09:45,183
Always yonder.

39
00:09:50,590 --> 00:09:54,960
Every day came scrubbing,
washing...

40
00:09:59,298 --> 00:10:03,768
There was so little time to sing
or think about the glory.

41
00:10:11,944 --> 00:10:15,347
Her mind and his
seemed to run together.

42
00:10:15,349 --> 00:10:18,750
Look!

43
00:10:18,752 --> 00:10:21,052
What happens is, the wind comes

44
00:10:21,054 --> 00:10:24,823
and it blows real hard,
and then the seeds rain down

45
00:10:24,825 --> 00:10:27,058
and they land on the earth.

46
00:10:30,263 --> 00:10:33,331
And then they grow up.

47
00:10:38,839 --> 00:10:42,307
We should move to a place
where he can be schooled.

48
00:10:46,980 --> 00:10:49,381
I've prayed on this.

49
00:10:56,355 --> 00:11:00,058
Boy has more to learn here
than any schoolhouse.

50
00:11:04,830 --> 00:11:08,800
He asks questions
I can't answer.

51
00:11:12,038 --> 00:11:16,241
He's got a gift.

52
00:11:16,243 --> 00:11:20,145
Can't turn our backs
on what God has given us.

53
00:11:33,392 --> 00:11:34,993
I know best.

54
00:13:25,539 --> 00:13:28,039
I remember when you were born.

55
00:13:30,242 --> 00:13:32,043
I wrapped you up in a bearskin

56
00:13:32,045 --> 00:13:34,412
and we slept by the fire.

57
00:13:37,016 --> 00:13:41,553
But when you cried...

58
00:13:41,555 --> 00:13:45,123
it was your Papa who got up
and tended to you.

59
00:13:54,467 --> 00:13:59,470
I watched him hold you,

60
00:13:59,472 --> 00:14:03,374
and I knew that no one
would ever care for you more.

61
00:14:38,245 --> 00:14:40,545
A while back, about a mile,

62
00:14:40,547 --> 00:14:42,280
half a mile back that ways.

63
00:14:45,417 --> 00:14:47,652
I don't know nothin' 'bout you.

64
00:14:47,654 --> 00:14:50,655
Trevor says, "What in tarnation

65
00:14:50,657 --> 00:14:52,557
are you doing yelling 'low' for

66
00:14:52,559 --> 00:14:54,659
when a fella's passing?"

67
00:14:54,661 --> 00:14:57,528
Your Uncle says,
"Well, what in tarnation

68
00:14:57,530 --> 00:15:00,431
are you doing passin' 'em
when a fella's yelling 'low'?"

69
00:15:05,437 --> 00:15:07,238
Oh, boy.

70
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,007
Swoop up.

71
00:15:09,942 --> 00:15:12,543
I don't want to hit you.

72
00:15:12,545 --> 00:15:13,544
Go!

73
00:15:13,546 --> 00:15:15,914
Go!

74
00:15:15,916 --> 00:15:17,148
Right over your Mama's head.

75
00:15:23,222 --> 00:15:24,923
I was 18.

76
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,296
My folks was dead.

77
00:15:31,298 --> 00:15:33,398
I like it.

78
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:37,535
I went with the Sparrow family.

79
00:15:37,537 --> 00:15:41,439
Same folks that raised
cousin's Mama.

80
00:15:43,142 --> 00:15:45,710
We let out for Indiana.

81
00:15:45,712 --> 00:15:47,111
Yes, sir.

82
00:15:49,581 --> 00:15:52,684
Kentucky was getting stuck up.

83
00:15:52,686 --> 00:15:54,285
Where we heading?

84
00:15:57,289 --> 00:16:00,258
No place for poor folk,
anymore.

85
00:16:04,229 --> 00:16:05,730
It's a frog.

86
00:16:05,732 --> 00:16:07,632
Catch him!

87
00:16:31,191 --> 00:16:32,490
That's my name.

88
00:16:36,528 --> 00:16:39,197
Don't look a thing like you.

89
00:17:26,246 --> 00:17:28,379
He was sharper than me.

90
00:17:30,482 --> 00:17:33,084
He learned Henry Clay's speeches
by heart.

91
00:17:33,086 --> 00:17:36,220
Get him by the arms.

92
00:17:36,222 --> 00:17:37,321
Oh!

93
00:17:42,161 --> 00:17:46,697
He took to writing
on the floor.

94
00:17:46,699 --> 00:17:51,436
The bench rail,
the wood and fire shovel.

95
00:17:53,305 --> 00:17:55,339
All with a bit of charcoal.

96
00:17:55,341 --> 00:17:59,677
Betcha can't get him like that.

97
00:17:59,679 --> 00:18:01,712
It pestered his Pappy
a heap to have him

98
00:18:01,714 --> 00:18:06,517
writing all over everything.

99
00:18:06,519 --> 00:18:09,787
He was just wrapped up in it.

100
00:18:12,825 --> 00:18:16,494
Lock your fingers.

101
00:18:16,496 --> 00:18:19,230
Bring 'em around.

102
00:18:19,232 --> 00:18:20,331
Like this, right here.

103
00:18:20,333 --> 00:18:23,167
You ready?

104
00:18:31,343 --> 00:18:34,412
You're getting it!

105
00:19:34,606 --> 00:19:36,474
Might be bad water.

106
00:21:25,350 --> 00:21:27,518
This will pass.

107
00:21:46,505 --> 00:21:48,773
May not want to drink
from the well no more.

108
00:22:10,496 --> 00:22:12,730
All my cows are gone.

109
00:22:16,902 --> 00:22:19,904
All of 'em!

110
00:22:19,906 --> 00:22:21,772
You, too!

111
00:22:21,774 --> 00:22:25,676
Both of ya.

112
00:22:25,678 --> 00:22:26,811
Go on.

113
00:22:26,813 --> 00:22:28,679
It's the plague.

114
00:22:28,681 --> 00:22:32,983
Nothing you can do.

115
00:22:32,985 --> 00:22:37,555
In the last of days.

116
00:22:37,557 --> 00:22:42,526
I prophesy.

117
00:22:42,528 --> 00:22:47,498
Yeah, we'll all be buried
by the end of the week.

118
00:22:47,500 --> 00:22:49,800
All gone!

119
00:22:49,802 --> 00:22:53,371
Gone!

120
00:22:53,373 --> 00:22:55,973
We should pray.

121
00:22:55,975 --> 00:22:59,710
For what?

122
00:22:59,712 --> 00:23:02,046
For ourselves.

123
00:23:46,425 --> 00:23:48,859
Cows ate the poison wheat.

124
00:23:53,064 --> 00:23:55,099
We got the milk sick.

125
00:24:02,641 --> 00:24:06,177
One week...

126
00:24:06,179 --> 00:24:07,778
They were gone.

127
00:24:35,674 --> 00:24:38,909
Will you get it, too?

128
00:24:38,911 --> 00:24:40,511
No.

129
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,114
Don't worry.

130
00:26:51,210 --> 00:26:52,876
Shhh.

131
00:27:01,987 --> 00:27:02,820
Mom...

132
00:27:02,822 --> 00:27:05,089
Shhh!

133
00:27:06,758 --> 00:27:09,860
It's been such a lonely time.

134
00:27:13,099 --> 00:27:15,399
Please, Mom.

135
00:27:15,401 --> 00:27:18,135
Be a good boy.

136
00:29:40,312 --> 00:29:43,480
Take her, Lord,
for she was yours

137
00:29:43,482 --> 00:29:45,315
from the beginning.

138
00:29:49,387 --> 00:29:54,792
Forgive her for her sins,

139
00:29:54,794 --> 00:29:56,894
though she committed none.

140
00:31:54,479 --> 00:31:58,482
Uncle wasn't worth shucks
that winter.

141
00:32:03,488 --> 00:32:06,523
He put the corn in
in the spring.

142
00:32:08,059 --> 00:32:10,594
Left us to tend to it.

143
00:32:16,167 --> 00:32:18,402
He let out for Kentucky.

144
00:32:20,672 --> 00:32:22,673
We can't go on like this.

145
00:32:23,874 --> 00:32:25,475
We knowed what he went for.

146
00:32:25,477 --> 00:32:27,678
Look after yourselves

147
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,514
and don't let the crops
go to waste.

148
00:32:40,091 --> 00:32:43,694
We didn't think
he'd have any luck

149
00:32:43,696 --> 00:32:46,263
bein' as poor as he was.

150
00:33:13,425 --> 00:33:15,592
I can't cook like Mama.

151
00:33:18,731 --> 00:33:21,698
Tastes real good.

152
00:33:21,700 --> 00:33:26,436
Me and him got her a baby coon

153
00:33:26,438 --> 00:33:28,271
and a turtle.

154
00:33:35,581 --> 00:33:38,248
We tried to get a fawn,

155
00:33:38,250 --> 00:33:40,584
but we couldn't catch any.

156
00:33:45,356 --> 00:33:48,058
It makes me think of her.

157
00:35:40,139 --> 00:35:43,673
He wrote a letter to
our Reverend from Kentucky.

158
00:35:43,675 --> 00:35:47,244
There's a world above us
where sorrow is...

159
00:35:47,246 --> 00:35:50,647
Told him that his Mama
went without a proper burial.

160
00:35:50,649 --> 00:35:53,350
A long eternity of love.

161
00:35:54,652 --> 00:35:56,486
Not a sparrow
falls to the ground

162
00:35:56,488 --> 00:35:59,489
without His direction,

163
00:35:59,491 --> 00:36:03,460
much less a person.

164
00:36:03,462 --> 00:36:07,364
For we are of more value
than a sparrow...

165
00:36:09,567 --> 00:36:12,369
and know that He is God.

166
00:36:14,517 --> 00:36:15,438
Let us hear...

167
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,240
Be strong.

168
00:36:20,244 --> 00:36:22,812
Can't fall into despair.

169
00:38:33,344 --> 00:38:36,413
Get over and say,
"How do you do?"

170
00:38:36,415 --> 00:38:39,015
Pleased to meet you.

171
00:38:39,017 --> 00:38:41,051
This is Tilda.

172
00:38:42,453 --> 00:38:44,387
Johnny.

173
00:38:47,591 --> 00:38:49,326
Grab a load.

174
00:38:50,528 --> 00:38:52,662
Take it on in.

175
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:31,634
Come on.

176
00:40:06,704 --> 00:40:09,472
Bless this food, Lord,

177
00:40:09,474 --> 00:40:12,442
and the hands that made it.

178
00:40:12,444 --> 00:40:16,179
We've endured many hard time,
Heavenly Father.

179
00:40:16,181 --> 00:40:18,782
Send good to us now.

180
00:40:20,651 --> 00:40:23,086
Let us live happily.

181
00:42:39,658 --> 00:42:41,691
- Good to see you come up.
- Thank you.

182
00:42:41,693 --> 00:42:43,494
Thanks for all of your help.

183
00:43:19,931 --> 00:43:22,131
She was a widow.

184
00:43:32,023 --> 00:43:33,743
She had been
fendin' for herself

185
00:43:33,745 --> 00:43:35,745
for a while now.

186
00:43:35,747 --> 00:43:37,113
I lost my hat!

187
00:43:55,032 --> 00:43:57,166
I snuck out of the house
when she was outside

188
00:43:57,168 --> 00:44:00,303
waterin' the horses.

189
00:44:00,305 --> 00:44:01,704
She went back in the house,

190
00:44:01,706 --> 00:44:02,805
I went in there

191
00:44:02,807 --> 00:44:04,874
and I snuck out on the porch,

192
00:44:04,876 --> 00:44:07,076
and locked the door.

193
00:44:08,346 --> 00:44:10,747
And I scared her
and she got scared.

194
00:44:14,919 --> 00:44:16,986
Do you pray?

195
00:44:19,156 --> 00:44:21,157
At night?

196
00:44:25,262 --> 00:44:27,263
You pray for her every night.

197
00:44:59,898 --> 00:45:01,464
Not too tight.

198
00:45:01,466 --> 00:45:04,233
His sister was always
a say nothing little gal...

199
00:45:04,235 --> 00:45:05,935
A couple times.

200
00:45:08,305 --> 00:45:10,907
With eyes like an owl.

201
00:45:15,813 --> 00:45:18,848
She chirped right up
with a new mother.

202
00:45:23,287 --> 00:45:26,122
And a sister for company.

203
00:45:38,502 --> 00:45:41,404
That was my dress, Mama.

204
00:46:05,463 --> 00:46:07,330
Ten steps.

205
00:46:17,142 --> 00:46:19,909
Nine, ten.

206
00:46:26,151 --> 00:46:29,352
I was glad she had
some good times.

207
00:46:29,354 --> 00:46:32,789
Singular number.

208
00:46:32,791 --> 00:46:34,023
Expresses.

209
00:46:34,025 --> 00:46:35,858
Expresses.

210
00:46:35,860 --> 00:46:36,893
Three.

211
00:46:36,895 --> 00:46:39,128
Plural, "We may."

212
00:46:39,130 --> 00:46:41,130
She married pretty young.

213
00:46:41,132 --> 00:46:43,132
Be loved.

214
00:46:44,169 --> 00:46:46,502
Died with her first baby.

215
00:46:50,375 --> 00:46:52,975
I reckon it was like her Mama.

216
00:46:57,415 --> 00:47:00,116
She didn't have no cure.

217
00:47:44,094 --> 00:47:46,629
She asked if
we'd seen her trinket.

218
00:47:46,631 --> 00:47:49,165
Empty your pockets.

219
00:47:49,167 --> 00:47:50,299
It's nothin'.

220
00:47:50,301 --> 00:47:52,335
Didn't mean nothin' by it.

221
00:47:59,376 --> 00:48:01,978
I said empty your pockets.

222
00:48:17,594 --> 00:48:19,328
Come here.

223
00:48:25,569 --> 00:48:26,903
Please, Tom.

224
00:48:33,543 --> 00:48:36,078
I don't want this.

225
00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:38,147
Go wash up.

226
00:49:21,625 --> 00:49:23,526
Go on.

227
00:49:26,396 --> 00:49:28,130
Run off.

228
00:49:30,033 --> 00:49:32,368
No one keeping you here.

229
00:49:40,677 --> 00:49:43,212
If I see you...

230
00:49:46,183 --> 00:49:49,151
keep your distance.

231
00:49:53,423 --> 00:49:57,193
Burn like hell at suppertime.

232
00:50:04,634 --> 00:50:07,136
Your Mama saw something in you.

233
00:50:09,206 --> 00:50:12,641
She thought you was blessed,

234
00:50:12,643 --> 00:50:15,077
that you was smart.

235
00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:19,081
You see,
I've always known it to be

236
00:50:19,083 --> 00:50:21,517
if a man is smarter,
you don't got to act like it.

237
00:50:22,967 --> 00:50:25,087
He don't have to show
no one he's better than 'em,

238
00:50:25,089 --> 00:50:27,456
he just is.

239
00:50:41,705 --> 00:50:43,773
You're like this corn.

240
00:50:45,175 --> 00:50:47,343
You're all closed up.

241
00:50:49,279 --> 00:50:52,148
You won't break free,
you won't come out.

242
00:50:53,817 --> 00:50:56,619
Seed can't stay in the ground
forever, son.

243
00:50:59,223 --> 00:51:02,825
No, it has to grow and give.

244
00:51:19,677 --> 00:51:22,144
Don't you like
having a Mama here?

245
00:51:32,423 --> 00:51:36,325
Sometimes I forget
what Mama looks like.

246
00:51:41,132 --> 00:51:43,532
That ever happen to you?

247
00:52:34,752 --> 00:52:36,585
Can you do it?

248
00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:45,227
Your eyes closed?

249
00:53:06,349 --> 00:53:08,951
I'll never take
your mother's place.

250
00:53:13,890 --> 00:53:16,725
But I'll love you as she did.

251
00:53:20,565 --> 00:53:24,967
If you choose
to love me less...

252
00:53:24,969 --> 00:53:27,603
I'll still love you the same.

253
00:54:12,649 --> 00:54:14,950
He doesn't say much.

254
00:54:18,421 --> 00:54:20,522
He thinks he's better than us.

255
00:54:20,524 --> 00:54:22,558
That's not true.

256
00:54:27,998 --> 00:54:30,499
He talks to himself.

257
00:54:33,737 --> 00:54:35,671
I've seen it.

258
00:54:37,841 --> 00:54:39,275
He's strange.

259
00:54:39,277 --> 00:54:41,377
He's your brother.

260
00:54:48,785 --> 00:54:50,486
Drop it!

261
00:54:50,488 --> 00:54:51,687
Come on.

262
00:55:00,664 --> 00:55:01,864
Come on.

263
00:55:04,868 --> 00:55:07,069
He won't let go
of the stick, guys.

264
00:55:14,711 --> 00:55:15,911
Come on!

265
00:55:17,914 --> 00:55:20,049
Found a dead coon.

266
00:55:25,588 --> 00:55:27,790
Couldn't get it off.

267
00:55:30,327 --> 00:55:32,995
The dog made a beeline
for the woods.

268
00:55:36,066 --> 00:55:39,568
Wild dog scentin' coon.

269
00:55:39,570 --> 00:55:42,071
Tracked the little animal home.

270
00:55:45,475 --> 00:55:47,910
Speedily demolished him.

271
00:55:51,981 --> 00:55:52,981
You do it?

272
00:55:52,983 --> 00:55:54,550
No, sir.

273
00:56:07,897 --> 00:56:08,897
You do it?

274
00:56:08,899 --> 00:56:10,799
No, sir.

275
00:56:28,451 --> 00:56:30,419
I did it.

276
00:57:16,132 --> 00:57:18,767
How'd your husband die?

277
00:57:23,540 --> 00:57:25,541
Bad water.

278
00:57:34,217 --> 00:57:36,452
Were you scared?

279
00:57:39,456 --> 00:57:40,923
Yes.

280
00:57:42,859 --> 00:57:44,593
Scared for him.

281
00:57:45,995 --> 00:57:48,797
Scared to be alone.

282
00:57:54,671 --> 00:57:56,738
Are you sad still?

283
00:57:59,809 --> 00:58:02,077
In a different way.

284
00:58:05,048 --> 00:58:08,684
I'll always miss him.

285
00:58:08,686 --> 00:58:10,619
He was a sweet man,

286
00:58:10,621 --> 00:58:12,488
good father.

287
00:58:15,058 --> 00:58:17,726
I have a new life now.

288
00:58:18,962 --> 00:58:20,829
A good one.

289
01:00:49,345 --> 01:00:50,412
Strong and sturdy.

290
01:00:50,414 --> 01:00:52,014
Everyone was real pleased

291
01:00:52,016 --> 01:00:55,350
to have a new house
for worship.

292
01:00:55,352 --> 01:00:56,885
I can't think
of a better man...

293
01:00:56,887 --> 01:00:59,388
The Reverend asked
his Pappy to build it.

294
01:01:01,858 --> 01:01:03,859
It was an honor.

295
01:01:11,367 --> 01:01:14,202
If we call to mind
our beginning,

296
01:01:14,204 --> 01:01:16,138
some of us may find a time

297
01:01:16,140 --> 01:01:18,874
where our fathers were under

298
01:01:18,876 --> 01:01:21,710
affliction and suffering.

299
01:01:24,013 --> 01:01:26,915
The wilderness
in which our fathers

300
01:01:26,917 --> 01:01:29,184
passed the days
of their pilgrimage

301
01:01:29,186 --> 01:01:31,853
are now pleasant fields.

302
01:01:33,691 --> 01:01:38,293
This was not done
to be buried in oblivion,

303
01:01:38,295 --> 01:01:41,863
but to prepare a people

304
01:01:41,865 --> 01:01:45,133
for a greater destiny.

305
01:01:45,135 --> 01:01:47,836
And the remembrance of that

306
01:01:47,838 --> 01:01:50,105
ought to humble us

307
01:01:50,107 --> 01:01:53,408
and create in us

308
01:01:53,410 --> 01:01:56,411
a Christian benevolence

309
01:01:56,413 --> 01:01:59,247
towards our inferiors.

310
01:01:59,249 --> 01:02:03,118
Whoever supports
the cause of some

311
01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:06,154
promotes the good of all.

312
01:02:32,182 --> 01:02:34,015
No time.

313
01:02:35,384 --> 01:02:40,021
I wanna live on the river.

314
01:02:40,023 --> 01:02:41,123
On a flat boat.

315
01:03:40,484 --> 01:03:43,552
Is that a snapping turtle?

316
01:03:43,554 --> 01:03:46,121
He'll bite ya on the finger.

317
01:03:46,123 --> 01:03:49,057
Won't let go till
it turns dark, neither.

318
01:04:07,511 --> 01:04:11,179
Ain't you gonna do something?

319
01:04:14,917 --> 01:04:17,485
From here to here.

320
01:04:22,225 --> 01:04:23,892
Come on!!

321
01:04:32,936 --> 01:04:34,035
No!

322
01:04:38,976 --> 01:04:40,141
Come on!

323
01:04:46,616 --> 01:04:48,550
Come on!

324
01:04:54,123 --> 01:04:55,964
Never seen you fight like that.

325
01:05:21,525 --> 01:05:23,285
Want to finish the firewood

326
01:05:23,287 --> 01:05:24,287
before you go, too.

327
01:05:24,288 --> 01:05:26,187
Don't leave me without it.

328
01:05:31,694 --> 01:05:34,462
His Pappy sent him
to a tannery.

329
01:05:36,899 --> 01:05:38,700
I don't want you to be hungry.

330
01:05:38,702 --> 01:05:41,002
It'd take him three days.

331
01:05:48,044 --> 01:05:51,479
He'd never been gone
like that before.

332
01:05:53,950 --> 01:05:55,517
Alone.

333
01:06:28,084 --> 01:06:32,620
She didn't talk all evening.

334
01:06:32,622 --> 01:06:34,389
Just worked.

335
01:06:40,262 --> 01:06:42,263
Stayed by herself.

336
01:08:34,845 --> 01:08:38,713
She didn't have no education,
herself.

337
01:08:43,319 --> 01:08:46,521
But she knowed what learning
could do for folks.

338
01:08:49,158 --> 01:08:53,828
A new school's been built.

339
01:08:53,830 --> 01:08:57,332
Only five miles from here.

340
01:09:01,203 --> 01:09:04,439
She'd do anything for him.

341
01:09:35,237 --> 01:09:38,940
Single file.

342
01:09:38,942 --> 01:09:40,275
Armstrong?

343
01:09:40,277 --> 01:09:41,843
Present.

344
01:09:41,845 --> 01:09:43,244
Gosling?

345
01:09:43,246 --> 01:09:44,179
Present.

346
01:09:44,181 --> 01:09:44,913
Fagen?

347
01:09:44,915 --> 01:09:46,548
Present.

348
01:09:46,550 --> 01:09:47,415
Gore?

349
01:09:47,417 --> 01:09:49,551
Present.

350
01:09:49,553 --> 01:09:54,422
Peckington?

351
01:09:54,424 --> 01:09:55,490
Merit?

352
01:09:55,492 --> 01:09:56,791
Present.

353
01:09:56,793 --> 01:09:59,961
Our Father, who art in heaven,

354
01:09:59,963 --> 01:10:02,230
hallowed be Thy name.

355
01:10:02,232 --> 01:10:05,300
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done,

356
01:10:05,302 --> 01:10:08,336
in Earth as it is in Heaven.

357
01:10:08,338 --> 01:10:11,439
Give us this day
our daily bread,

358
01:10:11,441 --> 01:10:14,275
and forgive us
our trespasses...

359
01:10:14,277 --> 01:10:18,746
Speed doesn't matter...
neatness does.

360
01:10:25,988 --> 01:10:28,323
Use soft strokes.

361
01:10:31,327 --> 01:10:32,360
That's better.

362
01:10:32,362 --> 01:10:33,962
Ne-bad...

363
01:10:33,964 --> 01:10:36,998
Nebuchadnezzar.

364
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:40,969
Full of fur...

365
01:10:40,971 --> 01:10:43,004
Fury.

366
01:10:43,006 --> 01:10:45,240
And the form

367
01:10:45,242 --> 01:10:48,977
of the visage...

368
01:10:48,979 --> 01:10:51,346
I-E-D...

369
01:10:51,348 --> 01:10:55,283
Delaware, Pennsylvania,
New Jersey,

370
01:10:55,285 --> 01:11:01,289
Georgia, Connecticut,
Massachusetts, Maryland...

371
01:11:08,264 --> 01:11:13,268
Be without malice, or envy.

372
01:11:17,473 --> 01:11:19,607
Scoff at no one.

373
01:11:25,914 --> 01:11:27,615
Love learning.

374
01:11:36,660 --> 01:11:39,894
Be cheerful.

375
01:11:39,896 --> 01:11:41,062
Go!

376
01:11:48,438 --> 01:11:51,039
Go, go!

377
01:12:07,390 --> 01:12:09,457
Here, your turn...

378
01:12:17,033 --> 01:12:22,337
Hear... and answer.

379
01:12:22,339 --> 01:12:27,342
You tell me,
where's your spirit?

380
01:12:29,078 --> 01:12:32,547
How do you know it's there?

381
01:12:32,549 --> 01:12:34,515
I feel it.

382
01:12:37,419 --> 01:12:40,488
What did Jesus do
when he was young?

383
01:12:40,490 --> 01:12:44,625
Worked in his father's shop.

384
01:12:44,627 --> 01:12:47,528
What was his mind doing?

385
01:12:47,530 --> 01:12:51,432
"It came to pass,
as he was alone praying.

386
01:12:51,434 --> 01:12:55,570
His disciples were with him,
and he asked them, saying,

387
01:12:55,572 --> 01:12:58,439
'Whom say the people
that I am?'

388
01:12:58,441 --> 01:13:02,143
They answered and said,
'John the Baptist.'"

389
01:13:02,145 --> 01:13:05,980
Then he tried to stop
and come back.

390
01:13:05,982 --> 01:13:08,149
But when he did this,
he came back

391
01:13:08,151 --> 01:13:11,486
and hit his head on the wall.

392
01:13:11,488 --> 01:13:12,653
Shake my hand.

393
01:13:12,655 --> 01:13:14,655
I ain't no scholar.

394
01:13:14,657 --> 01:13:16,157
Firm, yeah, that's good.

395
01:13:16,159 --> 01:13:17,492
Keep your head up.

396
01:13:17,494 --> 01:13:18,993
Do it again.

397
01:13:18,995 --> 01:13:20,461
Very good.

398
01:13:20,463 --> 01:13:22,497
You can smile,
it won't hurt ya.

399
01:13:26,102 --> 01:13:32,039
I asked him where'd
he get so many blatant lies.

400
01:13:32,041 --> 01:13:36,778
He told me when a story
learns you a good lesson,

401
01:13:36,780 --> 01:13:38,846
it ain't no lie.

402
01:13:41,650 --> 01:13:44,986
God tells truths in parables.

403
01:13:48,657 --> 01:13:51,959
I was struck by his honesty
the other day.

404
01:13:53,083 --> 01:13:55,163
He saw a buck's horn
hanging against the wall

405
01:13:55,165 --> 01:13:58,099
that had broken off.

406
01:13:58,101 --> 01:14:01,636
Thought some of the boys
did it.

407
01:14:01,638 --> 01:14:04,639
So the next day,
when it all got still,

408
01:14:04,641 --> 01:14:06,641
I asked him, who done it?

409
01:14:06,643 --> 01:14:09,544
Who broke it off?

410
01:14:09,546 --> 01:14:12,580
And he said,
"I did it."

411
01:14:14,683 --> 01:14:18,052
Takes the blame all to himself.

412
01:14:18,054 --> 01:14:20,488
Won't put any on anybody else.

413
01:14:26,462 --> 01:14:30,097
He won't stay
in these woods forever.

414
01:14:31,533 --> 01:14:35,169
And even if he keeps on
in Spencer County,

415
01:14:35,171 --> 01:14:39,740
he won't be a backwoodsman
for long.

416
01:14:39,742 --> 01:14:41,809
There's emigrations
going on now.

417
01:14:41,811 --> 01:14:45,246
By the time he's 30 years old,

418
01:14:45,248 --> 01:14:47,715
it'll be a whole
different world.

419
01:14:53,655 --> 01:14:55,690
He'll make his mark.

420
01:15:38,868 --> 01:15:43,204
"I came down to Friday
and asked him

421
01:15:43,206 --> 01:15:46,173
if he would stay by me.

422
01:15:49,144 --> 01:15:51,812
He was very cheerful.

423
01:15:56,318 --> 01:15:59,887
He would die
when I bid die."

424
01:16:09,732 --> 01:16:11,666
Here, boy!

425
01:16:17,906 --> 01:16:19,307
I got him!

426
01:16:19,309 --> 01:16:23,277
And when he'd come
to the house at night,

427
01:16:23,279 --> 01:16:26,347
he'd tilt the chair
by the chimney

428
01:16:26,349 --> 01:16:28,783
and sit on his backbone
and read.

429
01:16:28,785 --> 01:16:30,885
Where do they come from?

430
01:16:30,887 --> 01:16:32,353
The jungle.

431
01:16:35,624 --> 01:16:42,363
She always put a candle
on the mantelpiece for him.

432
01:16:42,365 --> 01:16:45,099
His Pappy'd just shoo him
off to bed.

433
01:16:48,203 --> 01:16:52,673
She said it didn't
bother her none.

434
01:16:52,675 --> 01:16:53,941
He's a fast learner.

435
01:16:58,347 --> 01:17:02,350
Interested in everything.

436
01:17:02,352 --> 01:17:04,619
I'd like to tutor him here,
in fact,

437
01:17:04,621 --> 01:17:07,021
on days away from school.

438
01:17:13,261 --> 01:17:16,097
You was in the war.

439
01:17:19,701 --> 01:17:22,903
Nothing's ever the same since,
I bet.

440
01:17:26,274 --> 01:17:30,811
Taking odd jobs...

441
01:17:30,813 --> 01:17:34,081
Never had no proper
learning, yourself.

442
01:17:36,752 --> 01:17:41,022
And I pay you in corn,
and hides.

443
01:17:41,024 --> 01:17:44,925
If you want more,

444
01:17:44,927 --> 01:17:49,797
you might want to take it
someplace else.

445
01:17:49,799 --> 01:17:52,967
Well, I don't want payment.

446
01:17:58,840 --> 01:18:02,109
I brought two books for him.

447
01:18:29,771 --> 01:18:32,306
I'm ready.

448
01:18:32,308 --> 01:18:35,910
He wants it, come on,
give it to him.

449
01:18:35,912 --> 01:18:37,745
You're up next.

450
01:18:40,048 --> 01:18:43,284
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa!

451
01:18:54,463 --> 01:18:56,897
All right, nice work there.

452
01:19:00,736 --> 01:19:02,470
Come here,
I want to show you again.

453
01:19:02,472 --> 01:19:03,804
Come on, push harder,

454
01:19:03,806 --> 01:19:04,839
come on.

455
01:19:04,841 --> 01:19:08,509
That's it.

456
01:19:08,511 --> 01:19:10,878
See, come on, come again.

457
01:19:10,880 --> 01:19:11,812
Get down low.

458
01:19:11,814 --> 01:19:13,080
Yeah, that's nice.

459
01:19:21,243 --> 01:19:22,923
All right, you're up now.

460
01:19:22,925 --> 01:19:24,925
Come on.

461
01:19:26,928 --> 01:19:28,129
You and me.

462
01:19:33,935 --> 01:19:35,836
You know,
get your head up there strong.

463
01:19:35,838 --> 01:19:38,305
Put it up strong...
all right, see?

464
01:19:38,307 --> 01:19:40,007
Get a grip on me
so you can feel me now.

465
01:19:40,009 --> 01:19:42,042
Can't you?

466
01:19:42,044 --> 01:19:43,978
And you got that other hand...
you're looking to get in there,

467
01:19:43,980 --> 01:19:45,846
trying to work that leg.

468
01:20:00,428 --> 01:20:01,829
Come on.

469
01:20:01,831 --> 01:20:02,863
I got ya all tangled up now,
see?

470
01:20:02,865 --> 01:20:03,531
Come on, start again.

471
01:20:03,533 --> 01:20:05,466
Start again.

472
01:20:06,902 --> 01:20:08,169
Come on.

473
01:20:08,171 --> 01:20:09,937
Let go, he's got him.

474
01:20:09,939 --> 01:20:14,809
He's got him now!

475
01:20:14,811 --> 01:20:15,910
Come on,
you can't get like that.

476
01:20:15,912 --> 01:20:20,147
Don't give me your back.

477
01:20:20,149 --> 01:20:21,048
Come on, I ain't finished yet.

478
01:20:21,050 --> 01:20:22,483
Come on.

479
01:20:26,521 --> 01:20:27,888
That's it.

480
01:20:27,890 --> 01:20:29,456
Got me down, nice work.

481
01:20:29,458 --> 01:20:30,891
Tie me up.

482
01:20:30,893 --> 01:20:32,426
That's good.

483
01:20:32,428 --> 01:20:35,095
That's good, that's good.

484
01:21:18,574 --> 01:21:23,010
My Pappy got real sick
and died.

485
01:21:23,012 --> 01:21:27,882
Sure glad to have a new one.

486
01:21:27,884 --> 01:21:31,085
Yours is real nice.

487
01:22:27,042 --> 01:22:32,479
Everybody runs him down.

488
01:22:32,481 --> 01:22:35,115
Never gave him credit
for what he was.

489
01:22:41,089 --> 01:22:44,024
He made a good living.

490
01:22:51,032 --> 01:22:56,003
His Pap kept his word.

491
01:22:56,005 --> 01:22:57,705
He paid his way.

492
01:23:02,344 --> 01:23:06,981
Couldn't say that of every man.

493
01:23:06,983 --> 01:23:09,149
Not even today.

494
01:23:11,586 --> 01:23:15,055
And men are decent-er
than they used to be.

495
01:23:15,057 --> 01:23:17,024
Found 'em.

496
01:23:30,306 --> 01:23:32,706
You found 'em, son,
you keep 'em.

497
01:23:52,795 --> 01:23:55,796
I wanna be as strong as you.

498
01:24:03,772 --> 01:24:08,142
You're a good boy.

499
01:24:08,144 --> 01:24:11,779
Your Ma would be
real proud of you.

500
01:24:23,591 --> 01:24:27,394
I ain't...

501
01:24:27,396 --> 01:24:31,098
a fairer man,

502
01:24:31,100 --> 01:24:34,568
not to nobody.

503
01:24:39,074 --> 01:24:42,076
But I always looked out for you
and your sister.

504
01:24:49,350 --> 01:24:53,287
You're gonna be twice
the man I am.

505
01:27:16,398 --> 01:27:23,270
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven.

506
01:27:31,880 --> 01:27:37,918
Three, four, five, six,
seven, eight...

507
01:27:39,654 --> 01:27:42,589
Hey! You cheat!

508
01:27:42,591 --> 01:27:43,857
Now it's your turn.

509
01:27:43,859 --> 01:27:48,829
Two, three, four, five, six...

510
01:28:02,011 --> 01:28:04,444
What it means
when you hear locust nearby,

511
01:28:04,446 --> 01:28:07,581
is somebody died
and their soul's risin'.

512
01:28:12,353 --> 01:28:14,354
That's the truth.

513
01:28:20,928 --> 01:28:23,563
My dad told me that once.

514
01:28:42,350 --> 01:28:47,387
There ain't nothing
worth talking about.

515
01:28:47,389 --> 01:28:53,093
Nobody much worth talking to...

516
01:28:53,095 --> 01:28:54,995
since he's gone.

517
01:29:19,754 --> 01:29:21,688
My God.

518
01:29:28,463 --> 01:29:32,799
I had to go out to the farm
to tell her.

519
01:29:37,372 --> 01:29:42,743
She was living on there, alone.

520
01:29:49,150 --> 01:29:54,154
I knowed they'd kill him.

521
01:29:54,156 --> 01:29:56,623
I'd been waiting for it.

522
01:30:02,997 --> 01:30:05,932
She never asked no questions.

523
01:30:09,470 --> 01:30:12,472
I reckon she thought
she'd soon join him.
