0:52 Amen.
1:11 Blessings on thee, little man, barefoot boy with cheek of ten, with thy turned up pantaloons and thy merry whistle too.
1:22 with thy red lip.
1:24 Redder still
1:25 Kissed by strawberries on the hill.
1:28 With the sunshine on thy face, through thy torn brim's jaunty grace, from my heart I give thee joy.
1:37 I was once...
1:39 a barefoot
1:40 boys.
1:48 Come on. Come on.
1:50 Go on, hurry up. Take it home. Take it home.
1:54 What?
1:58 Atta boy.
3:10 Come on.
3:15 They're letting John Hale out of prison this week.
3:18 And that's why you wanted to talk to Mrs. Hale?
3:20 Yes.
3:21 Maybe she won't be so glad to see him after his four years in prison, and I figured he might need a friend when he got out.
3:27 Go.
3:31 Okay, Dad, I'm ready.

3:33 When Henry gets back, you'll see that he gets a nice warm meal, won't you, Mother? You bet I'll take care of him. Bye. Bye.
3:38 Mom, you watch Terry so he won't come after us.
3:41 Come on, boy.
3:57 I want to talk with Mrs. Hale.
3:59 You stay here and get those eggs ready.
4:08 Oh, Mrs. Hale. Oh, how do you do, Mr. Whittaker? Hello, Mrs. Hale. I wanted to talk to you for a minute.
4:14 Yes, only I'm in a bit of a hurry.
4:16 driving car back to the academy.
4:18 Yes, but it's about John.
4:20 about his coming home soon.
4:23 Kenneth.
4:24 Run over there and see how do you do to Billy. Yes, Maureen.
4:28 I won't be knitting any pulp for your eggs today.
4:30 You see, I'm closing up the house.
4:32 going away for a while.
4:34 Oh, anyway.
4:35 Well, I thought with John getting out, uh...
4:37 coming home
4:39 that you'd be driving up there to the prison to welcome him.
4:43 I don't expect to go up there.
4:46 - Hi.
4:48 What's the matter? Doesn't the old man have enough money to buy his shoes?
4:50 Only softies wear shoes in the summertime.
4:53 Except on Sundays.
4:55 Didn't make you mad, did I?
4:56 No, I said it.
4:57 Will you shake on it? For sure.
5:04 Aren't you gonna do anything about it?
5:07 Why don't you try taking a crack at me?
5:08 I was asked not to fight.
5:10 Besides, I might spoil your pretty boy clothes.
5:13 I'd like nothing better. You're afraid.
5:15 Come on, take a poke at me.
5:17 You mean that?
5:18 I dare you.
5:19 I double dare you.
5:25 Ha ha!
5:26 That's jiu-jitsu, scientific wrestling. I learned it from my instructor at the academy.
5:32 I bet I can lick anybody.
6:06 Yeah.
6:22 Boys, boys, stop that. Get up from there.
6:26 Make them stop fighting. Oh, let them fight it out, Mrs. Hale. It'll do them good. Stop them.
6:33 He dared me. He double dared me.
6:36 Hey, hey, hey, if you're going to fight, now fight fair.
6:39 Take taking us in the house, make him resentable.
6:48 sorry about busting up all those eggs. Well, you can't mend busted eggs.
6:53 But your mother won't like your fighting very well.
6:55 That is, if anybody tells her...
6:58 You don't have to tell her, do you?
7:00 No, I guess this is one time when we men ought to stick together.
7:05 What about the egg money that we didn't get?
7:08 Maybe we can make up her egg money out of my chicken feed.
8:12 Put that gun away.
8:14 I was assured with you, and I'm not taking any chances.
8:17 Those kids are creeping here all the time.
8:19 I just saw another horse you on the tree. Close it to the house.
8:23 Yeah, I saw him.
8:24 I'm not letting them come any closer.
8:26 Yeah, but you didn't see me coming just now. You've got to be more careful.
8:30 You can't take any chances at the last minute.
8:32 John Hale getting out of prison this week. Yeah.
8:37 Now listen, you.
8:39 I fed you and helped you cool off a murder charge.
8:42 Now I'm testing in on you.
8:43 Eh?
8:45 With John Hale out of prison,
8:47 They'll figure he's the one that's unloading.
8:50 Quite simple.
8:51 have for you is patience.
9:12 It's the first time since I've been warden the prisoners filled out his own official release papers.
9:17 I've filled out many for others since I've been a trustee.
9:20 I waited a long time for my own.
9:23 It's a pleasure to hand you this.
9:25 You've been a model prisoner.
9:27 You've earned your time off for good behavior.
9:29 We're going to miss you around this office.
9:32 I can't honestly say I'm sorry to go.
9:35 One.
9:36 Has my wife called for me up?
9:41 Here's a telegram that arrived about an hour ago.
9:58 You can ride in the prison truck to the railway station.
10:01 If you don't mind, I'd like to walk those few miles.
10:03 It'll sort of get me accustomed to things again.
10:06 I understand.
10:09 Goodbye, Hale.
10:09 Lot to lot.
10:11 You've been very kind, Mr.
10:21 Gee, Mom, I wish we had company every day.
10:24 We must be special, can't we?
10:26 Take it too.
10:28 Yes, Mr. Hale is special accompanist. Your father and me were great friends when they were your age.
10:33 You know, I don't think you'd remember John Hill.
10:36 He's been away a long time. You mean that kid Kennesale's father?
10:40 Sure, I know about him. They put him in jail.
10:42 Billy.
10:44 Don't you ever speak of that again.
10:46 Well, he was in jail.
10:50 Billy, when you get punished for being bad,
10:53 We don't keep on talking about it afterward, do we?
10:56 No. Well, the same with Mr. Hale.
10:59 We don't want to ever mention that he was in prison.
11:02 I mean that he went away.
11:04 That lady knows all about criminals and prison breaks and bandits and burglars.
11:10 I'll bet he could tell some stories.
11:12 Now you get that right out of your head.
11:16 And don't you dare ask him about it.
11:18 Well, suppose he mentions it.
11:19 Can I listen? He won't mention it.
11:22 he's got
11:23 talking about it.
11:24 Can I ask Jeff and Pidge over just to see him?
11:27 Billy.
11:28 Did you tell them about it?
11:30 Well, we only talked about it and...
11:33 I've got just knife for letting him look at Mr. Hale.
11:37 Don't you understand?
11:38 that Mr. Hale is not a curiosity. Oh, all right. I won't say...
11:46 It's the truck.
11:47 Here they come.
12:00 Oh, it will be given us a pride.
12:02 We didn't expect it.
12:03 See you soon.
12:04 What's mom mean, surprise?
12:06 We expected him.
12:08 Oh, it's, uh...
12:10 It's like a surprise party.
12:12 Oh.
12:13 This is a great day for me, Martha, as you can imagine.
12:16 It's very kind of you to take me in this way.
12:18 Well, certainly glad to see you.
12:21 Ah, he doesn't even walk with a prison lock.
12:24 - Damn.
12:26 I'm gonna get my knife back.
12:28 That's what I'm gonna do.
12:31 and for what we are about to receive.
12:33 Let us be truly...
12:36 Amen.
12:41 John, when you show up unexpectedly like this, you'll have to take tough luck.
12:46 Well, if this is part luck, I can't imagine what it would be like if I were really expecting it.
12:50 Mr. Hale.
12:55 What is it, Billy?
12:57 I was only gonna ask him if he remembers me when I was little before...
13:00 Before he went away...
13:02 Well, you can talk about that some other time.
13:05 Your father and Mr. Hale have some things to talk over.
13:08 Why, of course he remembers you.
13:10 In fact he doesn't have to think back very far to the time when we were youngsters ourselves right here together.
13:15 We were both just about your size.
13:17 I bet Billy's doing the same things we used to do.
13:20 He sure remember how scared we were of the old haunted house down by the.
13:23 one? Why, of course. Don't tell me they're still there. Yes, sure. And they're still scared about it. No, no.
13:30 Then it passed Mr. Haley-Appley.
13:31 It's awesome.
13:36 Boy, we haven't had to lay out of food in the table since Dad's birthday.
13:40 I wish we had more parties.
13:42 Billy, you know very well this is no special occasion.
13:45 We were just hoping that Mr. Hale would drop by.
13:48 Well, you were pretty sure the way you were working out there in the kitchen.
13:52 I'm afraid Billy's giving you away, Martha.
13:55 But I understand.
13:56 It was nice of you.
13:58 It's going to make it easier for me to go home now.
14:01 Golly, I'm certainly anxious to see my wife and boy.
14:24 *Mario*
14:36 Yes.
14:37 Hey!
14:39 That'll cause somebody.
14:40 $40.30. Where do I get it? You wait here. I'll send a bottle or I can pay you. Just a minute. I'll do no waiting for fresh kids.
14:48 I'll go right along with you.
14:50 Yes.
14:56 Stay where you are, I'll show you a new trick.
14:59 Why, Master Kenneth, you're supposed to be in school.
15:02 Pay them up $40. And 30 cents, Master Kenneth. It's a hold-up. It never cost more than $40 in school.
15:08 Let me see the slip.
15:11 Charging.
15:12 Charge it?
15:13 Forty dollars and thirty cents. Yes the charge is the account of Mrs Hale.
15:19 Your mother is not at home. I know that. But you're not supposed to come home from school. Your mother left strict orders. Who cares? Cut out the preaching.
15:27 I'll get out there and tell them what I'm hungry.
15:29 I want a porterhouse steak.
15:30 French fried potatoes and a whole pie.
15:33 And don't waste any time.
15:35 Hurry up!
15:37 Oh, can it?
15:43 Hello, Kenneth. Oh, it's you.
15:46 Only they let you out.
15:47 I came home today.
15:50 Aren't you glad to see me? What for?
15:53 Why do you say that?
15:54 Because I never wanted to see you again. Ever.
15:56 What are you doing here anyway?
15:58 This is my home. This place belongs to Mother and me, and I don't want you around. Wait a minute, Kenneth.
16:04 Why did you leave school?
16:05 On account of you.
16:07 I got in a fight because
16:08 He kept saying my father was a con.
16:11 Wow.
16:13 Can't we talk that over between us?
16:15 I don't want to talk to jailbirds.
16:17 You know, Kenneth,
16:18 Maybe you don't quite understand. I don't want to listen to anything a jailbird has to say.
16:22 You just tell a lot of lies.
16:25 It's quite plain you haven't had much discipline since I've been away. You're a fine one to tell me about discipline. I do as I please.
16:31 You know kind of that's exactly what's wrong with you.
16:34 And maybe it isn't too late for me to correct it.
16:37 Food will be ready presently for Master Kenneth.
16:39 Never mind the food. He won't be eating here for some time.
16:42 Please pack some clothes for the boy.
16:44 Something suitable to wear around a farm.
16:47 Master Kenneth is going on a trip with his father.
16:57 You know, kind of shocked to see that boy of mine.
16:59 He's just etching for trouble.
17:02 When Valerie gets a divorce the courts may decide I'm not a fit person to raise him.
17:06 But I'm still his father. And I'm going to use this chance to rub his nose in some good old country soil.
17:12 Well?
17:13 There's a lot of it around here.
17:27 Who's the girl?
17:32 That's my girl.
17:34 What's your name?
17:35 Her name is Julia Blaine. She live around here?
17:39 Yes.
17:40 You got a sister?
17:42 Yes.
17:43 She's good-looking as Julia?
17:45 I don't think so.
17:46 Then I guess I'll take Julia. You'd better not try it.
17:50 I think it's just the grandest thing to have you and Kenneth visit us for a spell. And Billy will love having a chum near his own age.
17:57 Those two get along like two peas in a pod. Oh, mercy me.
18:06 I wonder what could have happened. That's your two peas jumping out of their pond.
18:14 Come on.
18:21 Boys! Boys, stop this!
18:24 Very great.
18:25 And you two can't have a crap.
18:26 Get Papa.
18:29 Good.
18:30 Oh, my... Now, what's this fight about?
18:33 Who started it?
18:34 Was it you, Billy? I just asked him a question, and for no reason in all he jumped on me.
18:38 Billy, I'm ashamed of you.
18:40 Now you apologize to your guests.
18:43 I said apologize. Wait a minute Martha.
18:46 Maybe they know what the fight was all about.
18:49 Now that it's over, why not let them shake hands?
18:55 Well, that's better.
18:57 Now you two get over there and fix up that bed.
19:00 Come on, both of you.
19:03 And Billy.
19:05 Let this be a lesson to you.
19:07 You just watch Kenneth a little closer.
19:09 You can learn a lot of things from him.
19:18 Amen.
19:20 Amen.
19:27 Must admit Cal it's very unusual for both boys to be out this late.
19:30 You don't suppose something might have happened. You let Martha see that you're worried she'll throw a finger. Just be quiet if they don't come home soon I'll go out and look for them.
19:38 Kenneth didn't tell you they planned anything special today, did he? No, no, Martha. They're probably just playing and forgot the time. Yeah, sure. They'll be home when they get hungry. But they've never been this late for supper. Sure, Billy has. Remember the night he didn't come home at all? No, but that time he was sick and stayed over with Jeff.
19:54 Oh.
19:55 Oh, my land.
19:56 I wonder if that's what happened this time.
19:59 Martha, will you?
20:00 Stop scaring me. Next thing you know you'll think the boy right into a hospital. Calvin you stop saying those things.
20:06 Now I am scared.
20:16 I want to.
20:17 Now, Mother.
20:18 I'll handle this.
20:22 Well...
20:23 Well...
20:24 We're late.
20:25 Well, that's some news.
20:27 Come here.
20:32 All right, now, why are you late, sir?
20:35 We stayed to dry our clothes.
20:37 What?
20:38 But if you started swimming with your clothes on now Martha.
20:42 Well, well, now, see your mother.
20:44 No we fell in. Yeah trying to get Julia.
20:48 Was Julian swimming?
20:50 No man.
20:51 She fell in.
20:53 Were you up on that swing over the water? No sir Julia was in the road broke.
20:58 So...
20:59 We fished her out. Did she get wet, too?
21:02 Yes, ma'am, but she's all right now. You mean you dried out her clothes also?
21:06 Oh no, we took her to a doctor. Quick.
21:09 Why was she hurt?
21:11 Only full of water.
21:13 But she's home now. Doctor took her home. We'd better go right over to the Blaines. Oh, no, sir. I...
21:19 Guess maybe the Blaine's don't like us so well.
21:22 Anymore.
21:24 Well, I don't wonder.
21:26 All right go on upstairs and get ready for supper.
21:33 You told about you almost getting drowned and we just promised not to tell about that.
21:38 And we shook hands on it, too. Well, you told them first we fell in with our clothes on. Oh, don't try to get out of it. Next thing you know, they'll find out you're to blame. Yeah, so you can brag you saved her.
21:47 Now, if you keep your mouth shut...
21:49 Oh just remember I won't get that dark detail. Well keep your old money I told you I wouldn't take it.
21:55 Just make sure that Julia doesn't tell.
21:57 you know that's easy she was unconscious she thinks I did save her
22:02 Billy!
22:05 Billy!
22:07 Yes, Mom?
22:09 Junie and her father are here. Mr. Blaine wants to talk to Kenneth.
22:14 To Kenneth.
22:15 Yes, Kenneth.
22:16 Tell him to hurry down.
22:18 I'll bet someone told on me.
22:20 I hope not come on you better go on down. Well you come along.
22:25 All right.
22:30 ...and hold before it's dark.
22:33 girl's life.
22:35 He's a hero.
22:36 Well, that's the greatest.
22:38 They never told us. That's the news to a hero to keep it a secret.
22:42 This little girl told me how your boy Kenneth dived into the water and saved her life.
22:46 And I wish to express my appreciation.
22:50 Here is something that I've carried with me for over 30 years.
22:54 Something that I've been mighty proud of.
22:57 My father gave to me a special occasion too.
23:01 And now is a good time to pass it on to a boy.
23:04 who will someday be a great man.
23:07 and a credit.
23:08 to his father.
23:14 I believe it's a custom in rewarding a hero to give a banquet in his honor.
23:19 So if you'll all step into the dining room, I'll serve supper.
23:26 What happened to Billy?
23:28 I don't know. He went upstairs. Now, isn't that just like him at a time like this?
23:33 You make him come right down to supper. Sure.
24:00 When Julia fell in the water,
24:02 Where were you, Billy?
24:04 I was just there.
24:06 Mm.
24:07 We also I've been wondering.
24:09 If Julie were only in a drowning,
24:11 how could you remember all the details that she told her father
24:15 Oh, I don't know.
24:16 I guess he remembers.
24:18 I see.
24:19 What do you remember?
24:22 Nothing.
24:23 Well look, if Kenneth did all the rescuing,
24:26 How did your clothes get wet?
24:28 Oh, Dad, let's forget about it. Don't ask me any more questions.
24:33 Can't expect me to remember everything.
24:36 OK, son.
24:38 I'd rather have you stand by and see the other fellow get the honor.
24:42 But you and I...
24:44 know how it really happened.
24:47 and maybe
24:48 It'll give Kenneth something to live up to.
24:55 Hey, listen to this.
24:58 And the bandits get away cars leap forward in a storm of shrieking bullets.
25:03 The piercing clatter of machine guns shattered the air.
25:06 Sending a rain of terror and chills into the hearts and spine of frightened people.
25:11 who screamed at the horrible sight and fled in stark horror, as the death car stundered by like fiery streaks,
25:18 At lightning speed.
25:19 Leaving a smoking pastor.
25:21 of doom and destruction.
25:25 Oh boy, here's something good. But for one...
25:29 Agonized, ghastly moments.
25:31 They trembled breathlessly.
25:33 and then grinned
25:35 groom the sleight.
25:36 As red-hot lead smashed its way into the vitals of the mirth, escaping fugitives.
25:47 Oh, listen to that. It's a pit.
25:50 The hail of D-Man bullets swept the flinging bandits' car from end to end.
25:55 The car leaps the curb.
25:57 and crashed into the ravine below.
25:59 Bursting into flames.
26:01 While the doom gangsters shriek with their dying breath.
26:04 Crime does not pay.
26:08 These stories are well elegant. They give you the creeps good.
26:13 Ah, they're not so hot.
26:15 I've heard better ones lots at times.
26:17 What could be better than Gene inviting bandits?
26:22 That ain't nothing like soldiers fighting Indians.
26:25 Indians aren't nothing to fight.
26:27 They only got bows and arrows.
26:29 When I get big, I'm going to be a G-woman.
26:34 and maybe capture the worst bandits in the world.
26:39 Hey, you know what?
26:42 I heard Pop saying last night,
26:44 Now, if you don't quit reading that junk,
26:47 He's going to lambaste you until he makes a lady out of you.
26:49 Like Julia.
26:55 You wouldn't know I was reading them unless you told them.
26:59 Not me.
27:00 I ain't no tattletale.
27:03 Here, hold it. I got something important to do.
27:12 Yes sir, go on, take it home.
27:14 Yeah, boy.
27:48 Billy!
27:59 Hey!
28:02 You're just trying not to hear me. I've been hunting for you an hour.
28:06 You better not try getting away from me this time. What do you want? You wait and you'll find out.
28:11 I know all about my dad giving his what?
28:14 Tanner.
28:15 Well, whatever. You can't fool me.
28:17 I saw Kenneth let Julia fall in the water.
28:20 And I guess I saw you pull her out.
28:22 And that coward Kenneth, he was scared.
28:26 My dad should give you the watch.
28:28 Well, we promised to keep it quiet. I'm sick of hearing my dad tell what a crazy hero Kenneth is.
28:33 Well, I almost told him this morning.
28:35 I can't stand it much longer.
28:37 Len, put some picking plaster on your mouth. I would if you'd stop mooning about losing Julia to Kenneth.
28:43 I don't care anything about Julius.
28:45 cheese body notes to her hero now.
28:49 I read it, too.
28:51 You keep out of this. I will.
28:53 My plan don't work.
28:56 What are you scheming?
28:57 I'm going to have one of those campfires tonight down near the cave.
29:01 Oh, who wants to hear any more of your old ghost stories? You're going to hear this one, and so is Kenneth and his, Julia.
29:07 I'm going to tell him a story about the hunted house.
29:10 then
29:11 I'll...
29:12 Daring to go in.
29:14 And what'll that get you?
29:15 It will show Julia that Kenneth got a yellow streak right down the middle of his back. That's why.
29:20 And if she wants him,
29:21 She can have them.
29:24 Suppose he does take your dairy.
29:26 And then if he goes in the haunted house,
29:28 Never comes back.
29:30 That's what makes me think we got something.
29:37 was years and years ago when the house first got haunted.
29:41 No, my dear.
29:44 wife and
29:44 Ten children got hungrier.
29:46 You hungry?
29:47 I can't if he wouldn't buy him anything to eat.
29:50 One night
29:52 It's life.
29:53 Sneak down into the south.
29:55 He caught him.
29:56 Down the door.
29:58 Huh?
29:59 Oh, God.
30:01 Just listening to it makes me feel my hair standing right up on in.
30:05 Scared?
30:06 Don't tell anymore. Oh, don't be scared.
30:08 That's just a story she's making up.
30:10 That's what you think. But wait till you hear it all.
30:13 Maybe you don't know what makes it bad to say.
30:15 Blinded.
30:16 Bats.
30:16 Just looking at ghosts makes...
30:18 That's his...
30:19 I'm blind as bats.
30:21 Well, go on.
30:24 After the miser buried his wife
30:28 Tell her of the haunted house.
30:30 He took all ten children
30:33 Out into the swamp.
30:35 And he came back alone.
30:37 laughing and screeching like a fiend.
30:42 The gold is mine.
30:45 Oh, my.
30:52 All that night.
30:53 He heard something down in the cellar.
30:56 I think it's a lot of money.
30:59 Wait.
31:01 sort of starving too.
31:03 His first hope, it was only the wind.
31:06 And he heard a woman talking.
31:10 Where's my baby?
31:15 Where's my baby?
31:19 or something and scratch on the door.
31:24 Ah!
31:27 Ah!
31:30 Stay there.
31:32 And they found the old miser in the closet house.
31:36 He was one of the deadest men that ever lived.
31:40 I suppose you believe that right.
31:42 Oh, you think it's time, hey? Then you never heard about the trampolines with a haunted house to sleep.
31:47 And when he woke up,
31:48 He was dead too.
31:50 The ghost.
31:52 I'd have eaten them alive. Rubbish.
31:54 That's crazy.
31:56 There is no such thing as ghosts or spooks.
31:58 And besides,
31:59 They're supposed to be disembodied creatures.
32:01 So ghosts can't eat.
32:03 Oh, they can't, can't they?
32:05 Well, these ghosts died.
32:07 starving.
32:08 And they're still hungry.
32:09 Why, even a dog's afraid to go in.
32:11 And dogs won't quote near this haunted house.
32:14 That's how Fawkes get Popeye's.
32:15 Watching for ghosts.
32:18 Aye, aye.
32:19 I'd go...
32:19 Go in myself, homie.
32:21 Papa would lambaste me if I did.
32:24 Nobody around here is brave enough to go in.
32:27 I wouldn't be afraid.
32:29 Maybe people around here.
32:31 aren't as smart as you.
32:32 Oh, I'm not baby enough to be frightened by ghosts like some people.
32:36 If I wanted to go in the haunted house, I'd go.
32:40 I guess you're just talking.
32:42 You're afraid to.
32:44 You can't scare me.
32:54 Yes, over there, go on.
33:03 Ah!
33:05 Ah!
33:08 That's Crilly's horseshoe, and that's mine.
33:12 I'm going to go.
33:14 I'll take both the horseshoes.
33:16 and make a real record.
33:25 I'll hang them right down the cellar of the haunted house.
33:28 I'll show you there's no ghost.
33:32 Help me!
33:33 Up! Up!
33:35 Ha, ha!
33:36 That's the sign the ghosts are working the night.
33:53 Now, put that away. I'm not taking any chances. I'm going to use this if they get close enough to see me.
33:59 - Hey.
34:01 We'll scare him some other way.
34:03 Get those chains.
34:11 Yeah.
34:13 Oh.
34:18 I'm out.
34:28 Do you suppose a ghost of her Terry bad?
34:30 Maybe they scratched his eyes out.
34:32 Same as the two human beings that go in there.
34:36 I'm going in.
34:38 Any of you want to come along?
34:40 I'd go myself.
34:42 Somebody's got to stay here and protect the women.
34:45 You gotta be brave to do that.
34:47 I'll stay.
35:09 Oh.
35:30 Heh.
35:31 That'll keep them away from here for a long time.
35:38 Well, I did it.
35:39 Oh, anybody could have done that.
35:42 He was so scared he would have jumped out of his shoes.
35:45 Right there on the porch.
35:46 Only they were tied on him.
35:49 You didn't put the horseshoes where you said you would.
35:52 You want to?
35:53 I heard something. Sure you did. That's good.
35:56 Ghosts. Oh, that's silly. There is no ghost.
35:59 Why did you get scared and run away?
36:01 And you drop the horseshoes, too.
36:03 Well, if you're so smart, why don't you go as far as I did?
36:06 Yes, Mr. Smarty, why don't you?
36:09 Billy's not afraid of anything.
36:11 Now why don't he go in?
36:15 I think I will. If Billy wanted to, he'd go right down in the cellar without stopping.
36:22 That's just what I will do.
36:26 You haven't got the nerve.
36:28 I dare you. I double dare you.
36:31 All right.
36:32 I'll go up on the porch and...
36:34 And get the horseshoes and...
36:36 You take them right down to the cellar.
36:39 and
36:39 And I'll put my head at the cellar window so you can all see me.
36:43 If you do, Billy, I'll go with you.
36:47 No.
36:48 I'd better go alone.
36:49 Well, if you go...
36:54 I'll go to the porch with you
37:10 - Hey!
37:28 I'm going to go.
37:40 What?
38:01 Amen.
38:05 Oh!
38:23 Oh, my God.
38:26 Oh, no.
38:47 I'm.
39:04 *whistling*
39:13 Amen.
39:15 Come on.
39:22 Amen.
39:29 Hey, can you see us? Here we are. We got the horseshoes. Can you see us? Hey, it's all for a ghost down here.
39:39 Oh!
40:16 You weren't a bit scared, were you?
40:19 Well, I went in, didn't I?
40:21 That's more than Kenneth did.
40:23 I was so afraid you'd get hurt.
40:25 Paul knows that he's scared about.
40:27 I always knew that someday I'd go in, I...
40:30 I was only saving it so you could see it.
40:32 Kenneth was afraid to even go in the door.
40:34 You just cooked this stunta. Show me up.
40:37 There's no ghost in there and I'm not afraid. I'll go in your own haunted house tomorrow and take it apart.
40:43 You want to see a real show, just stand out in front while I throw the ghost out to you one by one.
40:51 Hey!
40:52 I don't know.
40:54 I guess now you kids will believe me.
40:56 There's no such thing as ghosts.
41:02 Hey look this boy is loose. I stepped on it last night. And here's where we both fell down. That was no trick. Anybody can do that.
41:10 Come on, Julia, I'll-- I'll-- I'll-- I'll throw right through the horseshoes.
41:26 Look what I found.
41:29 Here's what makes a ghost noise.
41:32 Please.
41:32 There's a little cot bed.
41:35 I suppose you dumb kids believe a ghost never sleep.
41:44 Oh, razors. And I suppose a shade.
41:47 No.
41:48 It's red. And it's fresh.
41:51 God!
41:52 It is fresh.
41:56 Ha!
41:57 Huff!
42:00 Whistling
42:07 Hey, look.
42:08 A chain.
42:10 If a lake that goes...
42:12 It must be somebody that makes the noises.
42:15 I hope that they use this place as a hideout.
42:18 They come back and find us.
42:20 They'd make ghosts out of us.
42:22 That's what they do.
42:24 And I don't want to be anybody's ghost.
42:26 Somebody's been living here and just don't want us to find out.
42:36 Will you stop following me? I guess I can go anywhere you go.
42:45 Cigarette, boy.
42:48 Somebody's been here lately.
42:53 Hey, look at this.
42:54 What is it?
42:56 L.I. Securities Corporation.
42:58 Gold bond, $1,000. Monty?
43:02 It's worth a thousand dollars.
43:05 - Say, this sounds like my father's company.
43:09 But don't forget I found it. Okay.
43:12 But keep it a secret. We can sell this. Then I want my cuss.
43:15 What do you mean, you're cut? I want my share of the loot.
43:19 Okay, if you keep your mouth shut.
43:21 Cross my heart and hope to die. I promise.
43:24 But I want my cut.
43:28 There may be some more. You look over there.
43:54 Hey, there they got you.
44:05 Welcome.
44:13 I'm going to go.
44:39 Oh.
44:42 I'm going to go.
44:47 Come on.
45:04 Will you stop following me? Can't I have some privacy? Not till I get my cut. Well, how can I give it to you until I sell a bond? Then let me keep it. I found it. No, you might lose it. That bond is worth a thousand dollars. That's why I'm going to watch you. If you were a man, I'd knock your head off.
45:19 If I were a man, you couldn't knock my head off.
45:22 Now go away!
45:30 If you haven't learned about his being here,
45:32 In another month I'd have turned back to you the kind of boy you thought he was.
45:36 His letter to me was proof that you used prison discipline.
45:39 I think you change your opinion when you see it.
45:45 Come on.
45:48 What in heaven's name happened to you?
45:50 How did you ever get so dirty. Well think of a good one. We were.
45:56 Plane! Just plane!
45:58 Well you run along get cleaned up change your clothes mother's going to take you away from here.
46:02 What?
46:03 I...
46:05 But, Mother, I don't want to go. There's something very important I must do here. You said it.
46:10 Now say goodbye to your little friend and do as I say.
46:15 Well...
46:16 So long I.
46:17 Gotta go now. Over my dead body.
46:24 Richie, what are you doing? Richie, come on. Look, Richie, will you stop? Come on, Richie. Come on. Come on. Come on. Do it.
46:37 What is this? Now you've done it!
46:39 What is the meaning of this?
46:41 I don't know you know what's good for you and don't you say anything you'll get nothing.
46:46 This is one of the bombs they claimed I stole.
46:48 Where'd you get this? You're asking me? You ought to know where you hid them. Don't you understand, son? You must tell me. I mustn't tell you anything, must I, Mother?
46:56 I resent your putting Kenneth to the third degree. We've suffered enough in a variety and I don't propose that he should be made up for the.
47:03 I know where all the rest of the bonds are hidden.
47:05 I had my hands on a whole armful of them. And I hid them where no one will find them.
47:09 and I won't talk.
47:11 Not until I'm offered a reward. A good, big, fat reward. Listen, son, you can't wait. I won't let him get away. Now, you let me handle Kennedy.
47:18 Valerie, please don't take that position with the boy. Just a minute, please.
47:21 If you'll all be quiet, I'll question this boy in an orderly manner. No wonder the poor boy says things like that.
47:26 You've got him all excited.
47:28 Now, on the stairs, dear.
47:32 Now, after he's cleaned up and dressed, I'll have a quiet talk with him in a less excitable manner.
47:37 He doesn't know what he's saying now.
47:39 You know I think I can solve this mystery.
47:41 All the other youngsters, including my boy, were with Kenneth wherever he found the bonds.
47:45 So let's question all the children one at a time that's a good idea Cal.
47:49 But in the meantime I'm not going to let Kenneth out of my sight.
47:56 Come on.
48:15 Hey!
48:16 You almost bust my back. I ought to bust you on the nose.
48:20 Oh, no, you don't. I know where you're going.
48:43 Oh, Billy, can't you let her get away!
49:00 I...
49:01 Oh, my God.
49:07 Billy, he's going to steal a million dollars buried in a haunted house. He's going to run away with it.
49:12 It belongs to his father.
49:19 Come on.
49:27 Now we got a pretty job to find out who took them and where.
49:34 I'm going to go.
49:38 I'm going to go.
49:52 What?
49:53 Hello, Greg. What do you got there? What do you got in that bag?
49:57 What?
49:58 Nothing for a thing.
50:00 You let me go. Take it easy. Are those the security...
50:03 Are they all there?
50:06 Ow!
50:07 Come on. Oh, wait a minute. Oh, come on. Watch.
50:13 Oh, hi.
50:15 That kid keep your mouth closed. I told you we'd get caught. We got this now will try to get up so we can talk get that rope. What.
50:23 Come on.
50:35 This is a bit of luck that it should be this kid.
50:38 It's his father who served the time in jail for speeding those bonds.
50:41 Yeah, that is lucky.
50:42 When they find this kid here, they'll figure his father sent them here for the stuff.
50:46 Hey, what are you thinking of?
50:48 I'm not going to have any more than my hands.
50:50 Go on in the house. Hurry up. Make some noise. A lot of noise.
50:53 I'll stay here and help Kenneth.
50:54 All right.
51:25 Come on, are you, Russ?
51:29 We got you covered.
51:31 The game's up.
51:33 Come out of there, one of the coins!
51:36 With your hands up.
52:15 *whistling*
52:31 Yes, sir.
52:40 Yeah.
52:47 Yes.
53:06 This rope was tied with a knife.
53:08 Yeah, and the bag is gone.
53:12 Wait a minute.
53:23 Come on.
53:31 Come on.
53:32 Oh, my God.
53:45 I'm going to go.
54:18 It did.
54:30 I must have choked him.
54:35 Come on out of there.
54:50 So he come in and cut you loose.
54:53 Come on, come on out.
54:59 Oh, I'm new, too.
55:05 I.
55:10 I'm going to go.
55:14 I'm going to go.
55:19 Come on!
55:22 Okay.
55:27 Yeah.
55:34 Come on.
55:50 Well, kid.
55:51 You just came up here once too often.
55:54 You brought it on yourself.
55:56 BANG!
56:02 I'm going to go.
56:23 Come on.
56:31 Here they are John. Billy Billy are you all right Billy.
56:36 Yep.
56:37 Now we've got to get him out here quickly. Yes take his shoulders.
56:50 I'm sorry.
57:00 I hope to be outside.
57:03 If anything's happened to him, I don't know what we'd do.
57:09 Oh, he couldn't die.
57:12 You just couldn't.
57:15 Things wouldn't be the same with
57:17 Oh, Lucy.
57:21 You'll...
57:22 Please, Billy.
57:24 Mm-hmm.
57:25 Love is...
57:26 dogs.
57:27 so much.
57:28 There wasn't anything in the whole world.
57:33 Yeah.
57:36 It's all my fault.
57:40 Billy when he came in the cellar to...
57:43 Help me.
57:46 I wouldn't worry about that now, son. The doctor's up there doing everything possible.
57:51 I was even taking the bonds for myself.
57:57 Father.
57:58 I didn't understand then what that would do to you.
58:02 That's all cleared away now, son.
58:11 Shh! Quiet! Mother, how is Billy?
58:14 The doctor just removed the bullet.
58:15 And he's very much improved. Now I think that you're all very quiet.
58:19 Willie would like to have you up there to see him. - Oh, good day, boy. - Now, wait a minute.
58:23 Not so noisy.
58:24 I think it's best if you go up one at a time.
58:27 Remember, Billy's still a pretty thick boy.
58:34 Well you let Kenneth go first.
58:36 Harry.
58:50 John.
58:52 I was just thinking.
58:54 If I should take a place here in the country with our boy.
58:57 Would you come to visit us?
59:00 There, that's enough, Terry.
59:02 Come along.
59:09 Julia's father made a mistake when
59:11 He gave me this watch.
59:14 It belongs to you.
59:18 Gosh.
59:21 If I didn't see him do it with my own eyes...
59:25 I never would have believed it.
59:32 Amen.
59:34 I'm always going to be your girl.
59:37 Over my dead body.
