00:20:58$100 Zachariah you sold your soul for $100
00:21:05Even if we didn't sell I'd never be able to pay taxes on it. It ain't even sure we got to pay
00:21:11To find out tomorrow. Could you waited one more day?
00:21:14Even if they accepted the appeal who's gonna guarantee my water won't be poison. My livestock won't be runoff
00:21:19I gotta understand. I barely got a crop in this spring
00:21:23You can't do anything until we have proof Mary. Don't you start that again?
00:21:27Benedict or no Benedict. I'm sorry
00:21:30Enough is enough. We're leaving

00:21:44Yeah
00:21:54What about this tax game
00:21:59The region colonel wants us homesteaders to pay $1,000 in tax. Otherwise we lose our land
00:22:04Looks like Yankee army is never gonna let us beat
00:22:08Cane we made it through the war
00:22:11We'll get through this too
00:22:14Did you go to the law filed for an appeal a few months ago
00:22:21Colonel is supposed to be delivering an answer tomorrow
00:22:24In any case don't matter none
00:22:34It's Benedict, hey, don't you bring that shotgun out here? I will not have guns waiting on my property
00:22:43I
00:23:00Hear to give you my final offer. I don't need you
00:23:07You're so sure huh? Look I can either get it from you or the state of Texas and it really doesn't make any difference to
00:23:12Me, I'm just trying to help you and the other squatters out. We're homesteaders. We don't need your help. Thank you
00:23:21Get off my land

00:25:44I'm trying to be reasonable if there's bloodshed
00:25:49Won't be my duty
00:25:51Put it away Mitchum
00:25:57Get on your horses, let's ride out of here now
00:26:08Oh

00:26:25People so quick to panic
00:26:28Strength comes in control Wow. Why does Benedict wants this land so badly? We don't know for sure
00:26:35He came into town right as the war was ending
00:26:38Loaded with money
00:26:40He thinks he can buy everything
00:26:42Don't you have how do you call it?
00:26:45sheriff

00:31:12The appeal on April 11th
00:31:15For an injunction against the state of Texas was heard by the federal court for the region of the Texas Territories
00:31:24And it was denied
00:31:28How can he deny what's right
00:31:33By proxy of the state of Texas I do hereby impose the following property tax
00:31:40for protection from any hostile forces
00:31:43That is engines or otherwise
00:31:46the state of Texas will levy a tax
00:31:49To each community of homesteaders a total of $1,000
00:32:02We can't pay that sit down
00:32:07Failure to pay the said taxes will cause a forfeiture of land
00:32:12to be taken over by the state of Texas and
00:32:16resold
00:32:19I
00:32:32Tried to do everything I could
00:32:34But it's orders from Washington
00:32:37The tax will be paid
00:32:39right after the 4th of July celebration
00:32:49Oh
