00:00All those dear little birds, where would spring be without them?
00:06Do you have any on your claim?
00:09Lots of them, more than here.
00:12And they sing better than the meadowlarks here in eastern Kansas.
00:16It's a long song, twice as long, that winds up with kind of a trill.
00:20I think you're pulling my leg, Henry Eyes.
00:25Henry, I give you my daughter.
00:30God, give this couple a matrimony.
00:37Henry is a dreamer.
00:39I think you have to be to come out here.
00:42I don't know if I'm a dreamer, Mary.
00:44You are a dreamer.
00:46Sometimes I think, over time, our dreams, they go together.
00:55A lot of good came from some very hard times.
01:03I see that all before us will be of had so much courage.
01:10Our baby Albert is ill.
01:12This boy will never walk again.
01:18We're all travelers in this weary world.
01:24Some of us on the road to salvation.
01:28Some on the road to ruin.
01:37We spent almost all our time living in the future.
01:42Perhaps we could have found more joy in the years as they passed.
01:47It seemed good. It were hopeful.
01:50Life was so rich.
01:52If we had known all our work...
01:54This is my home!
01:56...would lead to this.
