Riverboat

Riverboat1959



[raiders attack a Cherokee village while a U.S. army detachment does nothing to prevent them from burning the Indians' teepees]

Col. Tryker:
The only way you're going to stop this sort of thing is for your people to move off of these lands.

James Evans:
You've got the chief's answer to that.

Col. Tryker:
Yes. Yes I have, but I also have my orders and I can't wait any longer. I'm riding out tomorrow to make arrangements for the tribe to be taken to a new Indian territory. I'll be back in a week. I hope by that time you'll have made up your minds to go peacefully.

James Evans:
We will not move.

Col. Tryker:
They tell me you're an educated man. I hope you realize there isn't any thing you or your tribe can do about this.

James Evans:
We can die.
