There are four hundred stones out there, Marshal - dead boys with Kiowa arrows in there backs. Fifteen years of bloody Indian wars laying out the territory; making the peace. And do you know what they won for it? Meat once a month, the rest beans. Weaponry out-moded, fouled, a marksman couldn't hit a target.
