追加: 2026-05-09

[00:00:00]Hey, what are you doing snooping around here?

[00:00:02]>> I STUCK IT, RICH. I STUCK IT, RICH.

[00:00:04]>> WELL, you come with me.

[00:02:14]This is the richest payard I ever found, Randy.

[00:02:25]And you're going to have the best feet of your life and a new gold collar.

[00:03:11]Now I got a good job on a ranch making my three squares a day.

[00:03:20]Planets well placed from a good old mag and plenty of fresh green hay.

[00:03:27]But there was a time when I slept outdoors, working so hard each day, drifting around from ranch to ranch without food or Hey, let go.

[00:03:56]>> Well, you certainly can play that thing, Hank.

[00:03:59]>> Well, Bob, I so thank you. But you know, I reckon, Bob, if I'd put as much time or doing some honest hard work as I have picking this guitar, I might be a rich man today.

[00:04:09]Say, why don't you play that one for me that you wrote about your girl down in Texas?

[00:04:13]>> You mean that lonesome cowboy?

[00:04:15]>> That's the one.

[00:04:16]>> Okay, Bob.

[00:04:19]>> I'm just a lonesome cowboy who's straight away from home. When I get back home to Texas, I vow no more to Rome. I can see the cattle roaming.

[00:04:36]I hear the cowboys. yell. I can hear that sweet, clear laughter of a pretty Texas gal.

[00:04:46]But here I am on a strange ranch, many miles from home.

[00:04:53]When I get back home to Texas, I'll bow no more to Rome.

[00:05:00]But I met lots of nice folks since I've been here and sure who treat me right.

[00:05:07]But I miss that cowboy hoop and yell in town on Saturday night.

[00:05:15]But I met lots of nice folks since I've been here and sure treat me right.

[00:05:22]But I miss that cowboy in town on Saturday night.

[00:05:28]When I get back home to Texas, going to find that preacher man. Going to marry that little old girl of mine and do the best I can.

[00:05:59]That's pretty good. Hank, >> have you really got a girl down in Texas?

[00:06:04]>> Well, I got a girl down there. I don't know whether I'm a fella or not, but I'm hoping so. Bob, I really like your little girl.

[00:06:10]>> Are you going back and marry her?

[00:06:12]>> Yes. I don't know how soon I'll be going back, Bob, but you know, I'm going to go back to Texas someday. I've been an hankering to go back for a long time.

[00:06:20]Well, I can tell it from that song you've just written. Certainly makes you homesick, doesn't it?

[00:06:24]>> Yes, it does. Bob, >> I got an important letter for Bob. I thought I'd bring it out myself.

[00:06:36]>> Thanks, Joe. That's kind of you. I'll take it.

[00:06:45]>> Here's a letter for you, Bob. And it's from Larry Moore.

[00:07:00]Larry struck it rich.

[00:07:02]>> Oh boy.

[00:07:02]>> Oh, son. That's great news.

[00:07:04]>> I'll say it is. But you know what that means?

[00:07:07]>> Uhhuh.

[00:07:07]>> That means that I'm going to have to go to Larry.

[00:07:10]>> Well, I'll go and get your things ready.

[00:07:12]>> All right.

[00:07:12]>> Can I go, too, Bob?

[00:07:14]>> No. Hank, you better stay here and take care of mother and take care of the ranch. Oh sh. Well, you won't forget to send for me.

[00:07:19]>> Well, I might send for you later if it's good to try.

[00:07:22]>> Okay.

[00:09:43]Please don't Dude, and don't let them get me.

[00:09:56]>> All right.

[00:10:03]And you stay here till I get back.

[00:10:14]I almost got shitten back then. He got away. Well, I reckon you're the fellow that scared him away. And I'm much obliged to you. You sure saved that st. >> I guess there's no harm, John. He didn't get anything.

[00:10:29]>> Hey, are you here? Yeah. I'll get my horse and ride in with you if you don't mind. Good. All right.

[00:11:11]We can't get off.

[00:11:28]Well, this as far as we go. Say, um, maybe you can help me out. I'm looking for a friend of mine that has lame around here. His name's Larry Moore. Do you know him?

[00:11:39]>> Well, I know. I don't recollect having met anyone by that name.

[00:11:42]>> Well, he's got a mind. He calls it the two friends.

[00:11:46]>> I tell you what, you go over and call on Frank Sher and he meets most everybody that drifts in here.

[00:11:52]And that's his place right over there.

[00:11:56]>> All right. Thanks very much.

[00:12:31]Come in, >> Mr. Sheridan.

[00:12:37]>> Yes.

[00:12:38]>> My name's Bobrandle.

[00:12:39]>> Well, I'm glad to know you, Mr. Kandle.

[00:12:41]What can I do for you?

[00:12:42]>> Well, I'm looking for a man by the name of Larry Moore. He owns a mine nearby here called the Two Friends. You know where I could locate him?

[00:12:50]>> Larry Moore.

[00:12:52]Two friends mine.

[00:12:55]The names don't come to my mind just now.

[00:12:58]Our company bought up quite a few claims around Bonanza.

[00:13:06]Let me look in my files.

[00:13:25]Are you sure your friend's claim was near Bonanza?

[00:13:28]>> I'm positive of it. You mentioned the name of the town in his letters. I wonder if I could find out anything at the recorder's office.

[00:13:35]>> That's a good idea. If he filed a claim around here, it'll be recorded in the books at that office. I'll go over with you.

[00:13:42]>> That's fine.

[00:13:58]There's a recorder's office across the street.

[00:14:02]>> Hello, Lillly. Struck Rich?

[00:14:05]>> I just struck another load. I got millions.

[00:14:08]>> What's the matter with him? Poor devil.

[00:14:10]He's a bit cracked. He's always making a big strike.

[00:14:45]Sam, this gentleman is looking for some information. See if you can help him out.

[00:14:49]>> I'm trying to locate a man by the name of Larry Moore.

[00:14:53]He's got a mine called the two friends.

[00:14:55]It's located near here.

[00:15:03]>> You say it must have been around January?

[00:15:06]>> Yes. Uh, that's the month he wrote me that he just made the strike.

[00:15:26]>> There's nothing here in the record book.

[00:15:29]>> Well, I don't understand it.

[00:15:31]>> Well, a lot of them don't record their claims. They're afraid of a stampede.

[00:15:35]Yes, that's right. Then again, he might have found an immediate buyer, sold out, and moved on.

[00:15:42]>> That sounds possible, but but I doubt it. I think I'll mosey around town and do a little inquiring.

[00:15:48]>> Well, I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help, but if there's anything else I can do, look me up.

[00:15:53]>> Thank you very much for your trouble, Mr. Sheridan. Thank you, too.

[00:16:25]Get out. You Thank you again.

[00:17:03]It's all good.

[00:17:18]>> Get out of here, you meny coyote.

[00:17:23]Yeah.

[00:17:24]>> Say, partner, that isn't very sportsmanlike kicking a hungry dog like that.

[00:17:29]>> You're tending your own business. I ain't going to have no dog around while I'm eating.

[00:17:42]>> All right, drop that chair. Get up there, you two. Come on, stand up there.

[00:17:48]All right, now get going.

[00:17:53]Hey, you you wait a minute.

[00:17:57]Pick up that chair.

[00:18:03]Now, sit down.

[00:18:06]Take off your hat. Take it off.

[00:18:14]You wait here. I'm going to tell the boss.

[00:18:23]waitress, come here.

[00:18:29]I can't eat anymore.

[00:18:32]Then give it to uh That's the dog.

[00:18:35]Come on, give it to him.

[00:18:39]That's a boy.

[00:18:42]He likes it.

[00:18:47]I think you better pay the check.

[00:18:53]>> How much steak? Two.

[00:18:56]>> $2.

[00:18:58]>> All right. Get >> I'll get you and that mut both for this.

[00:19:06]I think we can take care of ourselves.

[00:19:14]Well, how'd you like that, boy?

[00:19:20]>> Stay here and watch that fell. I'm fixing him before he leaves this house.

[00:19:25]>> Come on over here. I want to talk to you. Come on. Come on over here.

[00:19:31]Baby, >> listen. How are you?

[00:19:40]>> LM Larry Moore.

[00:19:43]Do you know Larry boy? Do you know Larry?

[00:19:49]You do.

[00:19:52]Come on. Take me to Larry. Come on.

[00:19:56]>> Well, I sort of ruined that table there.

[00:19:58]How much were you all told?

[00:19:59]>> Ah, forget it. It was worth the table to see you wipe up the flow of them bullies.

[00:20:05]Well, I'll drop in again sometime.

[00:20:07]>> But listen, use the chair next time.

[00:20:11]It's cheaper.

[00:20:13]>> Come on, boy.

[00:20:19]Come on. Come on.

[00:20:30]Hold on. Hold on.

[00:21:16]We can't take a chance on him finding out anything. Somebody might drop a word. And Sheridan Trandle just rode out of town. Which way was he headed?

[00:21:25]Towards Silver Trail. Well, >> that's the direction of the mine. I wonder if he's found out something already.

[00:21:32]Follow him and see that he doesn't come back. Understand? That'll be a pleasure.

[00:21:37]You better go out the back way.

[00:22:03]Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

[00:24:17]Hey, Come here.

[00:26:37]What do you want?

[00:26:39]>> I'm looking for a little information.

[00:26:41]About what?

[00:26:44]>> About a friend of mine named Larry Moore. Do you know him?

[00:26:47]>> Never heard of him. You saw that sign over there, didn't you? You better get going.

[00:26:51]>> Just a minute.

[00:26:54]I want to ask you boys a few questions, and you better come clean.

[00:26:58]What was the name of this mine before it was the triangle?

[00:27:02]>> I don't get you. It's all the triangle mine.

[00:27:04]>> Oh, yeah.

[00:27:06]Well, a friend of mine by the name of Larry Moore discovered this and he called it the two friends mine. That's so, isn't it? You got the wrong place, partner.

[00:27:42]There's no telling how many he's got happening.

[00:27:54]Hey, Stampede horses. Come around the map.

[00:29:13]What did he want around here?

[00:29:15]>> He wanted to know about Larry Moore.

[00:29:18]>> Hey, this is getting serious. I better ride back to town and tell the boss.

[00:29:21]There's no telling how much help that fell's got here.

[00:29:50]Hey, cut it out.

[00:30:25]Stay here till I get back.

[00:31:30]You sent for me, Mr. Sheridan.

[00:31:33]Sam, I just got the assayers's report on that mine I was telling you about. It's rich. I want you to destroy all record of it in your books. I'm adding it to the triangle interest in a day or so.

[00:31:46]>> Don't you think that's dangerous with that that friend of Larry Morris hanging around? He suspects plenty now. And if there should be a row, why? Don't you worry about this Bobrandle. The boys will take care of him the minute he shows his face. I'll take care of the brain work. You just follow my orders.

[00:32:37]Oh, I wish I'd never got into this thing. You are in it, and you're going to stay in it and do as I say. As long as I say. Now, go on over to your office and destroy those records.

[00:32:50]>> Yes, sir.

[00:33:49]What's up, Sam?

[00:33:49]>> That friend of yours, he broke into my office and is snooping around my record book.

[00:33:54]>> Is he there now?

[00:33:55]>> Yes.

[00:33:56]>> Well, I'll go get Curt and text. You run and notify the boss.

[00:35:18]He's got a truck there out the window.

[00:36:04]Boys, >> for you won't Is somebody after you?

[00:36:21]>> Yes.

[00:36:22]>> What do you want?

[00:36:23]>> We're looking for a thief who just robbed the recorder's office.

[00:36:27]>> Get in here.

[00:36:30]>> Quick, get in that clothes closet, boys. Search all the rooms. Done. You go down and call the sheriff.

[00:36:44]>> Come on. I'll show you where the pool is.

[00:36:49]>> What happened, Mr. Sheridan?

[00:36:50]>> We're looking for a thief. Did you see anyone?

[00:36:52]>> I know.

[00:36:53]>> He must have went out the back way.

[00:36:55]We'll continue the search outside.

[00:36:58]Sorry, we had to wait you, Miss Ellen.

[00:36:59]>> No, >> you can come out now.

[00:37:14]You sort of helping me like this uh makes us even.

[00:37:18]>> Yes. The last time we met, I was >> Oh, so that's what they called me, huh?

[00:37:23]>> Yes.

[00:37:24]>> Well, I don't suppose there's any harm changing confidences.

[00:37:27]You know, I'm sort of curious as to why a girl like you try to hold up an oil wagon.

[00:37:33]>> Suppose it was just my way of getting what rightfully belongs to me. You mean the silver bullion in that wagon?

[00:37:40]>> Yes. From one of the mines that's supposed to belong to the Triangle Company.

[00:37:45]>> The Triangle Mining Company.

[00:37:46]>> You also seem interested in the Triangle.

[00:37:49]>> You bet I am.

[00:37:51]What did they do to you?

[00:37:53]>> Not me. My father. They robbed him of his mind and murdered him.

[00:37:59]>> Oh, I'm sorry that I uh >> Oh, that's all right. Uh, sit down and I'll tell you about it.

[00:38:08]I was east in school when it happened and I was to meet my father here when he got settled. I received a letter from him telling me of some trouble he was in. He mentioned the triangle people so I was afraid and I came at once but I was too late.

[00:38:24]Seems that other people have met with the same fate as my father. This triangle company has reached out and tried to steal every mine in this section. So, I remained here determined to find out who robbed and murdered my father. I took an assumed name so that no one would discover who I really was.

[00:38:40]>> And you've learned nothing.

[00:38:42]>> Not yet. But I'm not giving up.

[00:38:45]>> Then perhaps we can work together and help one another.

[00:38:49]Like you, I came out here to meet someone, my partner.

[00:38:53]But I was too late. I think it'll be safer if I have this record book until we take care of this snooper.

[00:38:59]>> I knew we're going to be found out. I'm not going in any deeper. I'm through.

[00:39:03]>> Shut up. We haven't been found out yet.

[00:39:05]Stop your whimpering. Put out that light and go on home.

[00:39:12]>> So, you see, we're sort of drawn together by a common cause to find the man that's back of this Triangle Mining Company.

[00:39:19]>> If we could only find out who left that mysterious note on your saddle, he must know something.

[00:39:25]>> Yes, he did give me a good tip. There's a lot of crooked business going on. He's torn out that recording book and the man that's keeping it taking orders from someone. If we could only make him talk.

[00:39:36]Do you know where this recorder Dunn lives?

[00:39:38]>> Yes, right at the edge of town. Wait until I dress and I'll go with you.

[00:39:43]>> All right.

[00:39:46]>> It's dark in there, but the door is open.

[00:39:50]>> Look.

[00:39:59]It looks like we're too late again.

[00:40:02]He's been shot and the man that shot him got through that window. He'll never do any more talking.

[00:40:08]>> And if I don't miss my guest, the triangle out back at us >> to prevent him from talking.

[00:40:12]>> It certainly looks that way.

[00:40:15]Say, we better get out of here. If someone sees us, we'll have a lot of explaining to do.

[00:40:18]>> Yes. Come on.

[00:40:25]Too bad we didn't find out anything.

[00:40:26]>> Yes, it is. Hi, boy.

[00:40:29]>> Oh, so this is your friend's dog?

[00:40:32]>> Yes. I was wondering if you could keep him for me. You see, I'm going to have to work undercover from now on.

[00:40:38]>> Well, be glad to, Mr. We don't even know each other's names. I'm Molly Welpurn.

[00:40:43]>> My name's Bob Kandle. And now that we know each other and going to work together, I think we better decide on a secret meeting place. You know, it wouldn't be so good for us to be seen together.

[00:40:53]>> No, I know just the place. There's an old abandoned mine shack about a mile out of the Silver Trail. It'll be safe for us to meet there.

[00:41:01]>> Good. I'll walk part way back to the hotel with you.

[00:41:04]>> All right.

[00:41:04]>> Come on, boy.

[00:41:10]>> I heard old Sam was done up last night.

[00:41:12]>> Yep. Murder.

[00:41:17]Well, >> Mr. Sheran's in there checking up now.

[00:41:21]>> I guess we've looked over everything.

[00:41:23]There's nothing left here that can do us any harm.

[00:41:33]>> Anything gone?

[00:41:34]>> Yes, the record book.

[00:41:36]>> I'm sure that number we chased last night got poor old Sam.

[00:41:39]>> I liked old Sam. I guess the least I can do is see that he gets a decent burial.

[00:42:09]Thank you again.

[00:42:23]Good morning, Miss Alan.

[00:42:24]>> Good morning, Mr. Sharon.

[00:42:49]What's the matter, boss?

[00:42:51]>> The record book. It's gone.

[00:42:53]>> Well, come with me. What I've got to show you may explain who took it.

[00:43:18]a dog. Well, what of it? That dog belongs to that fellow that calls himself Bob Crandle. And that room belongs to the girl that's working for you. I got a hunch them two's working together.

[00:43:30]>> I'm beginning to understand what happened to that record book. Come on, we'll go over and search that room.

[00:43:56]>> The dog can't hurt you. He's tied.

[00:44:03]See what you can find in that dresser over there.

[00:44:16]>> Slug, come here.

[00:44:18]>> Find that record book.

[00:44:19]>> No, there's nothing in there but some clothes. I have no money. That girl's name is one Melbourne. Well, that's the old and she's his daughter and she came for me under an assumed name.

[00:44:50]You want something, Miss Ellen?

[00:44:52]>> No. Uh, well, yes, that is I have an errand to do and I'd like to get away for a short time.

[00:45:04]What's the meaning of this?

[00:45:05]>> Now, let's quit pretending, Miss Welburn.

[00:45:14]>> Where's that record book?

[00:45:16]>> I don't know what you're talking about.

[00:45:18]>> No use acting any longer. We might as well lay our cards on the table. I know that you and this Bobrandle are working together. That you hid him in your room last night. Then you you're the Triangle Mining Company.

[00:45:32]>> As if you didn't know.

[00:45:34]>> Then you you murdered my father.

[00:45:38]>> Removed might be a better sounding term.

[00:45:41]But of course, you'd have to prove that.

[00:45:43]And as there are no witnesses, it would simply be your word against mine. And even if you did get a chance to use this evidence, which you certainly will not, and neither will your friend Bobrandle.

[00:45:55]My men will take care of him. They'll shoot him down as the man who robbed the recorder's office and shot Sam Dunn.

[00:46:04]We're going for a little ride. You not to cause any trouble.

[00:46:17]>> Hey, what are you doing snooping around here?

[00:46:19]>> I STUCK IT, RICH. I STUCK IT RICH.

[00:46:21]>> WELL, you come with me.

[00:46:56]Hey fella, if they stopped you in time, you were sure walking into a trap.

[00:47:07]>> They're waiting for you.

[00:47:14]>> You, Rexel?

[00:47:15]>> Yeah, I'm just down here playing a part.

[00:47:17]I'm down here to look into the doings of this triangle company. Well, you certainly had me through completely.

[00:47:21]>> They got no time to waste. I just got the dope on the fellow that's responsible for these claim jumpings and the murders in the Bonanza. It's this fellow Frank Sheridan.

[00:47:28]>> Sheridan? Well, how'd you get the dope on him?

[00:47:30]>> Well, I first suspected something when I saw him hid in that record book from the recorder's office. Then, just a few minutes ago, I overheard him spill everything. Well, let's be traveling. I may need your help. Sheran's heading for the Silver Trail, and he's got the girl along with him that worked for him.

[00:47:42]>> You don't mean Miss Welburn, do you?

[00:47:44]>> I think that's her name.

[00:47:45]>> Come on.

[00:47:49]Well, what happened to you?

[00:47:50]>> I don't know. I must be screwier seeing things. I just saw a worm turn into a wolf.

[00:47:58]That's Crannle now. And he's got Looney with him.

[00:48:01]>> Looney May I? We're the ones that's crazy. That's a bird that's been working with Crannle.

[00:48:46]There's Sheran now talking to two of his cutthroats. I wonder where the girl is.

[00:48:51]Well, >> she's probably in the cabin.

[00:49:01]You stay here and watch them. I'll take care of these boys.

[00:50:20]I'm going back to town and see if they got that felland.

[00:50:27]There he is now.

[00:51:13]Come with me.

[00:51:28]Isn't that a cardly trick?

[00:51:38]You stay here and watch those men. I'm going after that wagon.

[00:53:26]PUSH.

[00:53:54]PUSH.
