The Great Dan Patch (1949)

No renewal found Free in the US since 1 January 1978, on the registry's reading: registration LP2411 of 1949 by W. R. Frank Productions was not renewed in the volumes searched. Record.

A record-setting pacer becomes the centre of a human inheritance story, with another horse supplying the body behind the famous name.

The horse playing Dan Patch was not Dan Patch but Visalia Abbe.2 That substitution is a useful place to begin with The Great Dan Patch: the animal whose name promises a biography must be represented by another animal. The acknowledgement in the production notes preserves a small distinction between the historical subject and the body carrying his identity on screen.2 The drama approaches its title character through people who must decide what place he will occupy in their lives.

The historical Dan Patch was an American Standardbred harness racehorse foaled in 1896.5 He was a pacer, a distinction worth preserving rather than casually substituting “trotter.”5 He broke world speed records at least fourteen times in the early 1900s.6 Those achievements give the film a subject with an unusually clear public measure: distance covered against a clock. Drama needs a different measure, however. A racing record cannot explain why a person might organise a life around an animal. The film’s human story occupies that gap between sporting achievement and private commitment.

Joe Newman directed the picture from a screenplay by John Taintor Foote.2 The working title was simply Dan Patch.2 The addition of “The Great” announces a reputation in advance. The film has no need to keep the horse’s eventual stature a secret. Its task is instead to turn a known sporting figure into the centre of a feature-length narrative.

That narrative follows David Palmer, who devotes himself to Dan Patch after his father’s death.4 The arrangement makes inheritance more than a transfer of property: the horse becomes a continuing obligation, something living that cannot be put away with the other remains of a parent’s life. It shifts the emphasis from a succession of races towards what such devotion asks of a person. Read this way, the horse’s famous name and Palmer’s less famous one perform different jobs. The name Dan Patch supplies the promise of achievement. Palmer gives that achievement a human scale through the time and attention he commits to the horse. This is a dramatisation built around the animal’s career, not a substitute for its historical record.

The film also circulated under the title Ride a Reckless Mile.1 That title exchanges a proper name for the language of speed and risk. Its later availability is easier to establish than the reasons for each stage of distribution. A television listing places it on American television by 1977.10 A later home-video reference records its availability on VHS and DVD.11 These are separate traces of continued access, not evidence of one uninterrupted release history. The television listing does not establish the terms on which the film was broadcast. Nor do the cited distribution sources establish that copyright status caused the later video releases.

The record: Registration LP2411 by W. R. Frank Productions is dated 22 July 1949. The registry found no renewal in the renewal volumes for 1976 to 1978, nor in the Copyright Office's records from 1978 on; on that reading the term ended on 31 December 1977 and the film has been free in the US since 1 January 1978. This is a conclusion tied to the stated searches and their scope. The record does not establish how particular later distributors understood the film’s rights. It also leaves open which materials they used.

  1. 1:10 in peaceful
  2. 1:11 less feverish days, now gone forever.
  3. 1:15 The harness horse served us beyond all other creatures.
  4. 1:19 He brought the doctor who was in the hospital.
  5. 1:20 ushered us into the world.
  6. 1:24 He drew the somber vehicle which bore us to our last resting
  7. 1:32 On Country Road or City Street, he was the hot rod of his time.
  8. 1:37 The boys and jokes.
  9. 1:39 older than.
  10. 1:41 on training tracks
  11. 1:43 stock farms throughout the land, we strove to increase his stamina and speed.
  12. 1:48 These efforts to quicken the transportation of the country produced better and still better horses.
  13. 1:54 And so at last came Dan Patch.
  14. 1:58 The best, the swiftest, the greatest of them all.
  15. 2:02 this is his story.
  16. 2:11 Oh
  17. 2:23 I'm not going to be a good one.
  18. 2:26 Come on.
  19. 2:26 I'm
  20. 2:28 Stay with him, chap.
1474 more segments
  1. 2:29 On board!
  2. 2:40 - He's not going to bite you, boy. Come on.
  3. 2:44 I'm not sure.
  4. 2:47 Dogs, if you ain't got a kind of a sortable way with a horse, David.
  5. 2:51 Oh, I wouldn't know about that, Chad.
  6. 2:53 Quite a spell since I've had a hold of one.
  7. 2:56 What's this I'm driving?
  8. 2:57 Oh, he ain't much. Just a man and a tail.
  9. 3:01 But your boy's got a good one.
  10. 3:02 Hear him tell it. Home in the barn.
  11. 3:06 - Sure.
  12. 3:11 Say, what do you do up there in Chicago anyway?
  13. 3:15 I'm a chemist.
  14. 3:17 You don't mean nothing to me, you pay good.
  15. 3:20 Not to get my eye on.
  16. 3:22 Yeah, I hear that's what's come for.
  17. 3:25 Well, you're getting yourself a fine gal.
  18. 3:28 Some folks think.
  19. 3:31 Seen her yesterday. Didn't see me. Seldom does.
  20. 3:36 Mr. Mike stuck up, maybe on account of being a school teacher.
  21. 3:40 Yes.
  22. 3:41 You won't say that when you get to know her better.
  23. 3:43 Doubt if he ever could do.
  24. 4:00 And Nettie.
  25. 4:02 - David. - David!
  26. 4:07 Well,
  27. 4:08 Another mile after.
  28. 4:09 Are you still hollering, clear down to your feet when you set them under a table? You know I'll hardly eat a bite the whole time I'm here?
  29. 4:15 You know why?
  30. 4:16 I'm used to good cooking now.
  31. 4:18 Where's that?
  32. 4:20 Where he always is.
  33. 4:21 Out to the barn, fooling with some worthless, broke-down resource.
  34. 4:28 Yes.
  35. 4:43 Oh, Dad.
  36. 4:50 Oh, so?
  37. 4:53 I, uh...
  38. 4:55 I've been expecting you.
  39. 5:00 Amen.
  40. 5:02 Fire.
  41. 5:03 You're looking good.
  42. 5:07 You too.
  43. 5:12 Newwood?
  44. 5:13 here.
  45. 5:16 ...the four-year-old I traded for.
  46. 5:18 Give a half a piece, sir, and...
  47. 5:22 *whistles*
  48. 5:23 Oh, what's her name?
  49. 5:24 Zelika?
  50. 5:25 Can she step?
  51. 5:27 Well...
  52. 5:29 I'll tell you.
  53. 5:34 I've tried.
  54. 5:36 For 40 years.
  55. 5:37 To get a good one.
  56. 5:39 There she stands.
  57. 5:41 Son?
  58. 5:42 She can fly.
  59. 5:44 - Pay sir to try. - Pay sir. I'm sending it over to Ben Leithrop Monday.
  60. 5:49 Hey.
  61. 5:49 How would you like to take her over the track after dinner and work her a half? Oh, man, oh, man, I'd love it. That is, if you'd trust her to me.
  62. 5:56 Trust it, do you?
  63. 5:58 You're a Palmer, ain't ya?
  64. 6:00 But hold on.
  65. 6:01 You've seen Ruthie yet? Not yet. I thought it surprising. Maybe after I worked the mayor
  66. 6:06 I could do it.
  67. 6:07 Drive on in the town.
  68. 6:08 Well, I...
  69. 6:09 Yes, oh yeah.
  70. 6:11 But, uh...
  71. 6:12 Don't let her stand around too long. You...
  72. 6:14 Get the spark in.
  73. 6:18 You'll be enchanting in this, my dear.
  74. 6:21 Somehow I always put more of myself into a wedding gown.
  75. 6:26 You know...
  76. 6:27 If I thought I could have a church wedding,
  77. 6:31 I'd be tempted to say yes.
  78. 6:33 Oh, really?
  79. 6:35 To whom?
  80. 6:37 Oh.
  81. 6:38 Dear, Will.
  82. 6:40 Suppose I say someone terribly big and strong.
  83. 6:44 who'd come along and...
  84. 6:46 - Sweat me off my feet. - Ouch!
  85. 6:49 Oh, heavens!
  86. 6:51 So sorry. Suppose we keep men out of the conversation.
  87. 6:55 I promise.
  88. 6:57 All but one.
  89. 6:58 Amen.
  90. 7:00 How soon will he be here?
  91. 7:02 Oh, any day now?
  92. 7:04 He'll let me know.
  93. 7:05 Well, I hope.
  94. 7:08 Teacher, teacher, you're foes in town, you're foes in town!
  95. 7:13 Well, I never.
  96. 7:15 The little "N".
  97. 7:16 Of course it can't be true.
  98. 7:18 Of course not.
  99. 7:24 Treadwell, he's here, she's here.
  100. 7:27 Ain't children dreadful?
  101. 7:31 I suppose that's their idea of a joke.
  102. 7:34 Oh, can I be...
  103. 7:35 Well, Ruthie, you look mighty nice in that.
  104. 7:38 Your man will like you with it too, I guess.
  105. 7:41 He just got in on number six.
  106. 7:43 It's so nice of you to let me know, Mr. Moore.
  107. 7:48 I...
  108. 7:49 I think we'd better stop for the day, Miss Rogers.
  109. 7:51 I feel...
  110. 7:53 tired.
  111. 7:59 Hey, Bruno.
  112. 8:00 I think I was.
  113. 8:02 That's wide open.
  114. 8:03 It might have hungry.
  115. 8:06 That's fit. Let's hear one.
  116. 8:08 Oh, mix.
  117. 8:10 The team is worth a drive.
  118. 8:13 A mare and a mule boat have polite wherever I go.
  119. 8:20 Whatever I do.
  120. 8:23 mix
  121. 8:24 The team's got me feeling blue
  122. 8:31 Come on, music.
  123. 8:34 Come on, man.
  124. 8:37 We can't.
  125. 8:38 Instead in an easy chair
  126. 8:42 Hear me?
  127. 8:43 Jesus.
  128. 8:44 Hear me, Hall.
  129. 8:47 What are you?
  130. 8:48 You're to work.
  131. 8:49 And that's the law.
  132. 8:55 Mixed teams, mixed teams, don't stride alike.
  133. 9:03 Don't pull together.
  134. 9:05 Hate each other, delude in the weather, oh Lord, when I'm getting yoked up.
  135. 9:14 Forever.
  136. 9:15 Don't.
  137. 9:18 Don't put me in
  138. 9:20 Oh, don't put me in no mixer.
  139. 9:24 King.
  140. 9:29 Where does Ben lay from stables?
  141. 9:31 I found the end of the line and to the right.
  142. 9:46 Hello, Ben.
  143. 9:47 Hello.
  144. 9:49 That's a nice warm welcome.
  145. 9:52 Well, during my honorary time.
  146. 9:55 David.
  147. 9:56 Good to see you. Good to see you too, Ben.
  148. 9:58 Sissy, look who's here.
  149. 10:01 Sissy Lightrup.
  150. 10:03 Why, the last time I saw you, you were just...
  151. 10:05 Arms, legs, and freckles.
  152. 10:07 Didn't keep her from being stuck on someone I know.
  153. 10:11 Had such a mess, she hated her teacher, because the fellow was kind of soft on the school, Mom.
  154. 10:17 Tom.
  155. 10:18 Well, kids are funny.
  156. 10:20 Ben, I brought the mayor over to let her step ahead.
  157. 10:23 - Zellica, ain't it? - Mm-hmm.
  158. 10:24 Dad's sending it to you Monday.
  159. 10:26 Glad to have her.
  160. 10:28 She's a nice belt thing.
  161. 10:31 Say, Sissy was just gonna give this call to work.
  162. 10:34 Why don't you work out with her?
  163. 10:36 Sissy.
  164. 10:37 Can she work a horse on a track?
  165. 10:39 Mm-hmm.
  166. 10:41 - Let's see.
  167. 10:42 Fine.
  168. 11:12 I'm going to go.
  169. 11:36 Well, what do you think of her?
  170. 11:39 She sure got a lot of steps.
  171. 11:41 She'll have to have light knee boots in the front.
  172. 11:45 I'm afraid you're stuck for a special block, mister. She goes awful wide.
  173. 11:48 She'll hit her regulation back on the turns when she comes to her full speed.
  174. 11:57 Man, does she know her business?
  175. 12:00 Worried some about that gal.
  176. 12:02 Or to finish high school.
  177. 12:05 That's what she'd be doing if her ma'd lived.
  178. 12:08 I can't handle her.
  179. 12:11 Tell me something, Ben.
  180. 12:13 Why do you horsemen always fool with a whip that way when you go to talk serious?
  181. 12:17 Well, no, I never thought about that.
  182. 12:20 Dog de cuidon.
  183. 12:23 This fella's thoughts come easier when he's moving with a whip. I see.
  184. 12:28 You know, you're, uh...
  185. 12:29 You're right about sissy, Ben.
  186. 12:31 She should finish school.
  187. 12:35 I'll see you in a minute.
  188. 12:45 So you like Zelika?
  189. 12:48 She's nice.
  190. 12:50 I think she'll make a good race, Mary.
  191. 12:55 - I'm telling you, why don't you
  192. 13:00 Stop and complainin'.
  193. 13:02 Oh.
  194. 13:03 Happen to mention it.
  195. 13:05 I think you should go.
  196. 13:14 All right, mister, I will.
  197. 13:18 May I interrupt?
  198. 13:20 Ruth.
  199. 13:22 Oh, no, David, not here. Anywhere.
  200. 13:28 Then everything is all right.
  201. 13:29 All right, what are you talking about?
  202. 13:32 Well,
  203. 13:32 You arrived without a word?
  204. 13:34 That never came near me.
  205. 13:36 I drove clear out to the farm.
  206. 13:37 Father told me you'd be here.
  207. 13:39 Oh, David, I can't understand it. Oh, gosh, I was just trying to surprise you.
  208. 13:44 In this town?
  209. 13:45 Well, I was going to drive in right after I worked the mayor.
  210. 13:48 Oh, I see.
  211. 13:49 After you worked the mail.
  212. 13:52 flowering.
  213. 13:53 that.
  214. 13:53 It mustn't come between you and a horse.
  215. 13:56 I love you, old lady.
  216. 13:57 - Ah.
  217. 14:01 - David.
  218. 14:03 I'm so unbelievably happy.
  219. 14:08 Oh, but...
  220. 14:09 Darling,
  221. 14:11 Couldn't we go outside?
  222. 14:14 Why, girl, this is perfume. Horses, leather, liniment. I could shut my eyes and know I was in a racing state. I'm afraid I prefer fresh air.
  223. 14:23 All right.
  224. 14:24 Come along.
  225. 14:25 Miss Prim.
  226. 14:28 Who was that girl you were talking to? I should know. Her face was so familiar.
  227. 14:32 She's helping her father.
  228. 14:34 I had her in the eighth grade.
  229. 14:36 Poor child.
  230. 14:37 I think I've been that awful getter.
  231. 14:44 Amen.
  232. 14:46 - Oh.
  233. 14:51 Here you two will be hooked up for good this time next week. That's right.
  234. 14:55 Hop in, honey.
  235. 14:57 How can I?
  236. 14:58 What do I say?
  237. 14:59 Best place in the world.
  238. 15:01 David, no.
  239. 15:02 Why not?
  240. 15:03 Well, because it's undignified. Oh, listen to the school bomb, Ben. Come on, pitch her up here. Sure thing.
  241. 15:12 There you go.
  242. 15:13 - Oh, oh.
  243. 15:15 - I'm gonna go get it.
  244. 15:17 All right, man.
  245. 15:19 Come on.
  246. 15:35 Give me some money, Pop.
  247. 15:38 Sure.
  248. 15:40 How much?
  249. 15:42 - You're gonna buy me a new dress.
  250. 15:44 That'll be nice.
  251. 15:47 I'm going back to school.
  252. 15:51 Well, now, maybe...
  253. 15:52 Good idea.
  254. 15:56 I've seen you two drive in.
  255. 15:59 Next time I go sparking, Daniel, will you loan me that little speed wagon?
  256. 16:02 That's made to order. Ain't a woman this side of 90 would get in that rig with you.
  257. 16:08 Now that's too bad.
  258. 16:09 I had you and mine a special, Nat.
  259. 16:11 You won't be 90 for a couple of years yet, will you?
  260. 16:16 Oh, I kind of nudge the biscuits in this direction, baby. Sure, Chuck.
  261. 16:20 Mr. Farmer.
  262. 16:22 Would you do me a big favor? Oh, sure, sure. I mean, you say, Ruthie.
  263. 16:25 Would you cut a nice big load of those daisies in the field next to the barn?
  264. 16:29 And happens at church Thursday morning.
  265. 16:31 Daisy's church, what?
  266. 16:33 Well, to decorate the chancel, David.
  267. 16:36 It's the Presbyterian Church, Mr. Palmer.
  268. 16:38 Well, I'm just a hard hand around here, but if you ask me, that's flying kind of high.
  269. 16:42 Nobody's asking you nothing.
  270. 16:47 Oh, now, little kitten.
  271. 16:48 Couldn't we just go quietly to Squire Saunders and get married? People who count David aren't married casually by a Justice
  272. 16:55 of the peace.
  273. 16:55 Oh, to without?
  274. 16:58 We will someday, darling.
  275. 17:00 No, that's your show, sweetheart. If that's the way you want it, it's okay with me. Thanks.
  276. 17:05 Please stop saying "okay."
  277. 17:07 I loathe this modern slang.
  278. 17:20 I don't care why you get married.
  279. 17:22 I'll see you get your daisies all right.
  280. 17:24 Son, are you sure you want to go on fooling with them chemicals?
  281. 17:28 Of course I am, Dad. What else would I do?
  282. 17:31 Well...
  283. 17:32 Me and my father before me got a good living.
  284. 17:34 And what a comfort you might say out of this farm.
  285. 17:37 I...
  286. 17:39 Well, I ain't gonna last forever.
  287. 17:41 Matter of fact, he's had a spell or so lately, Doc Abbott. Don't like.
  288. 17:46 Nothing serious, is it, Dad? No, no, no. Just not start me thinking.
  289. 17:52 Ruthie, we got a nice spare room here. Why don't you and Davy go off and take a little trip after you're married, then come back and settle down here.
  290. 18:03 Oh, well, I'm sorry, Dad, but, well, we just couldn't do that.
  291. 18:08 Well, why not?
  292. 18:09 I'll tell you why not, Dan Palmer.
  293. 18:12 I didn't take over here when Lysabeth died because you were my brother.
  294. 18:15 I done it for the poor little thing she left behind that needed a woman's care.
  295. 18:19 Well, he got it.
  296. 18:20 And more.
  297. 18:24 I didn't scrimp and save to send him through college for him to slop hogs and pitch manure.
  298. 18:29 And don't you forget it.
  299. 18:32 Stick to your vittles.
  300. 18:37 Oh, well, that is.
  301. 18:38 It's like this.
  302. 18:39 When a man has raised a boy...
  303. 18:42 And he's going downhill.
  304. 18:44 Naturally.
  305. 18:48 The cigar goes a long way from here, son.
  306. 18:52 Yes, it is, Dad, and I've done something about it.
  307. 18:54 What?
  308. 18:55 I wanted to surprise you.
  309. 18:56 More surprises?
  310. 18:58 I've taken a new job.
  311. 18:59 I'm going to work at the Brinkman Laboratories.
  312. 19:01 Looks like Ruth and I are going to live in Indianapolis, just spitting distance from here.
  313. 19:06 Davy.
  314. 19:08 That calls for a celebration. Nettie, you get the glasses and I'll get the jug.
  315. 19:14 Indianapolis?
  316. 19:16 Well, what's wrong with Indianapolis?
  317. 19:18 Well, it's...
  318. 19:19 - Not nearly as big as Chicago. - That's big enough for us.
  319. 19:24 Don't underestimate us.
  320. 19:44 I'm going to go.
  321. 19:56 Palmer.
  322. 19:57 Mrs. Palmer!
  323. 19:59 Mr. Walker.
  324. 20:00 home.
  325. 20:01 Home.
  326. 20:03 help provoke you.
  327. 20:07 And I wanted everything in order.
  328. 20:09 Oh. Not really. Not a word.
  329. 20:13 Go.
  330. 20:14 Well...
  331. 20:15 Where are you?
  332. 20:16 Coming, darling.
  333. 20:21 Oh! What's going on around here?
  334. 20:27 Nellie gave me a dirty look, fell down the cellar stairs. Now you come popping up out of the same place. Oh, Nellie, I was surprised to see you're home so early. I was just down in the storeroom putting some things away. - Oh, see. - Broceries, nothing. - Listen, I've taken the afternoon off and guess where we're going, Tootsie Puss.
  335. 20:40 To the track at Oxford.
  336. 20:41 Zelika is making her first start today.
  337. 20:43 We can catch the one o'clock train, but you'll have to hustle. Well, I can't go, darling.
  338. 20:48 I just have to rearrange things in the storeroom.
  339. 20:52 You'd mess around in that storeroom the day the dad's mayor makes a first start? Well, I guess not.
  340. 20:58 You're coming with me and right now. No, David.
  341. 21:04 It's just possible.
  342. 21:05 that my messing around in the storeroom is more important than watching a horse go around a track.
  343. 21:11 Oh, don't be like that, sweetheart.
  344. 21:15 Gosh.
  345. 21:16 With you, it's drive, drive, drive.
  346. 21:19 You're always busy, always.
  347. 21:21 planning something or other.
  348. 21:23 We've got to have some fun once in a while.
  349. 21:26 Dad's expecting us.
  350. 21:27 You'll be heard.
  351. 21:29 Davey.
  352. 21:31 Come with me.
  353. 21:33 But why? We haven't got time. Come on.
  354. 21:35 Just for a minute.
  355. 21:36 Yes, but, darling, we've...
  356. 21:42 I'm going to go.
  357. 21:46 What a woman.
  358. 21:57 Great suffering, jumping poor cats.
  359. 22:04 Fair, isn't it?
  360. 22:06 Where did you get all this?
  361. 22:08 Add a tea.
  362. 22:10 Tea?
  363. 22:11 Mrs. Brinkman was there. Oh.
  364. 22:14 - Why, for the boss?
  365. 22:16 She's a sweet old thing. I explained that you wanted to do private research and needed equipment, and she said, "Just leave everything to me, my dear." And here it is, straight from the Brinkman Laboratories.
  366. 22:26 be in.
  367. 22:27 Oh, I can really dig into sulfur with this.
  368. 22:29 How did you happen to know what it was that I needed? Well, I heard you talking to Bill Tate about your...
  369. 22:34 It's all for process. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. The night he came to supper. Dinner, David, dinner. Well, I telephoned Bill at the laboratory, and he sent me a list.
  370. 22:42 more messy.
  371. 22:47 Oh, my dear, dear, dear, wonderful.
  372. 22:51 Oh.
  373. 22:52 Come on, come on. We've got to get going.
  374. 22:55 No, David. I'm tired.
  375. 22:58 You go him, Mars. OK, sweetheart.
  376. 23:00 Oh, I mean, all right, baby. You lie down. Take a little rest.
  377. 23:04 So long.
  378. 23:07 Well, from now on, it's up to you, Ben. Oh, you don't need to worry about her.
  379. 23:17 Will she win?
  380. 23:19 Off by yourself, mister.
  381. 23:21 She can pace this track in 12.
  382. 23:26 Luck to you, Ben. Don't need it.
  383. 23:28 She'll do it all.
  384. 23:33 No problem.
  385. 23:34 I'll lead her to her first trace.
  386. 23:42 Here we go.
  387. 23:44 Come on.
  388. 24:06 Hold!
  389. 24:07 Hey, food!
  390. 24:09 What you want.
  391. 24:10 Those bikes right here, huh? They're scorn for the word.
  392. 24:14 Don't cry my heart, I must have witnessed it to the wrong one.
  393. 24:18 That hailing crumb, she'll cut herself with him!
  394. 24:21 I'm not.
  395. 24:30 Mr. Dan, the mayor's hooked to a regulation.
  396. 24:32 Dell's hooked to a regulation by it.
  397. 24:43 - Selfie. - What's the matter? What's wrong? She'll hit, she'll go by. She'll hit the bike on the turns.
  398. 25:02 Dad.
  399. 25:03 She's in the lead. There's nothing wrong. She's in the lead. Maybe Ben knows.
  400. 25:08 Look!
  401. 25:10 He's holding on the turn.
  402. 25:11 Easy, baby. Easy now.
  403. 25:16 -Sissy, everything's all right. -Yes.
  404. 25:45 I'm going to tell you.
  405. 26:10 Yeah.
  406. 26:14 All right, number five.
  407. 26:16 All right, number two.
  408. 26:19 All right, number four.
  409. 26:25 Anything wrong, number three?
  410. 26:27 I can't come back, Judge!
  411. 26:29 This mayor is hurt.
  412. 26:31 Man, oh man, that's bad.
  413. 26:36 She hit on the first day.
  414. 26:38 Must have put a foot right through.
  415. 26:41 I never even knowed she'd hurt herself.
  416. 26:43 Didn't take a lame step 'til she'd won the heat.
  417. 26:46 - Get her back to the house.
  418. 26:47 STALLS.
  419. 27:01 Amen.
  420. 27:02 I'm sorry.
  421. 27:06 Poor baby.
  422. 27:10 Come on.
  423. 27:19 And, uh, miserable.
  424. 27:23 Grand little man. Stop that phone. Stop.
  425. 27:35 Do it again.
  426. 27:36 do it again.
  427. 27:49 In here, darling.
  428. 27:54 Dad's mare was badly hurt.
  429. 27:57 She'll never race again.
  430. 27:59 Oh, that's too bad. I'm terribly sorry.
  431. 28:04 May I get you something?
  432. 28:05 A glass of milk?
  433. 28:07 A little whiskey.
  434. 28:09 No.
  435. 28:11 I think I'll go to bed.
  436. 28:14 Get a good life.
  437. 28:17 You'll feel better in the morning.
  438. 28:23 Dave.
  439. 28:25 Mrs. Ormsby, I...
  440. 28:26 I met her at the Brink...
  441. 28:28 is giving a reception on the 14th.
  442. 28:31 I feel sure we'll be asked.
  443. 28:35 Is that good?
  444. 28:38 Dave!
  445. 28:39 She's one of the most fashionable women in town.
  446. 28:44 Oh.
  447. 28:58 If you won't eat,
  448. 28:59 Drink this.
  449. 29:00 Nice hot coffee.
  450. 29:05 She is done.
  451. 29:06 Well...
  452. 29:07 You can't do nothing about it, Daniel.
  453. 29:11 We won Heath in our first race.
  454. 29:14 and she's done.
  455. 29:16 What?
  456. 29:19 Or is she?
  457. 29:22 Joe Patchen.
  458. 29:24 Hey.
  459. 29:25 You're passionate.
  460. 29:27 Spill your coffee.
  461. 29:28 Who's Joe Patchen? The greatest pacing horse that ever looked through a bridle.
  462. 29:32 He's a stud now over in Illinois.
  463. 29:35 I'll send her over to him. Illinois. What'll it cost? I don't know. Four or five hundred.
  464. 29:40 Maybe. Have you gone plum crazy?
  465. 29:43 Listen, woman, she went a mile up at the first 16th with the rear tendon about tore off and won.
  466. 29:48 She's earned a coat that can look anyone that lives in the eye.
  467. 29:51 Joe Patchen ought to be a proud horse to mate her.
  468. 29:54 But all that money, Dan Ross. Such a cab!
  469. 29:57 She goes to Joe Passion if I gotta put a mortgage on the farm.
  470. 30:11 Oh
  471. 30:22 Amen.
  472. 30:39 Amen.
  473. 30:41 And
  474. 30:41 Palmer, you've been fooling with that coat for three long years.
  475. 30:45 How'd you like to do a little farming for a change?
  476. 30:47 Ben Latham is going to train him. He'll be over to get him any minute now.
  477. 30:50 You squealed like a stock hog over the money you took to send the mayor to Illinois.
  478. 30:54 Take a good look at him, Eddie. If he ain't worth five times what it cost, I'll eat my...
  479. 31:03 Morning, Ben.
  480. 31:04 - Morning, Dad. - Good, sissy. - Morning, Nat. - Morning, Daddy.
  481. 31:07 Morning, Ben.
  482. 31:09 Well...
  483. 31:10 Here he is.
  484. 31:12 Well...
  485. 31:13 I've seen worse.
  486. 31:16 We might make an out of him.
  487. 31:19 How about it, sis.
  488. 31:26 Like him, gal?
  489. 31:29 I guess she likes him.
  490. 31:32 You want a bazertrop?
  491. 31:34 Now, you'll never need to go.
  492. 31:35 to put no hopples on him.
  493. 31:39 What's his name?
  494. 31:41 Well,
  495. 31:43 called him
  496. 31:44 - I'm Dan, Ronald.
  497. 31:45 barn with the head
  498. 31:47 Uh...
  499. 31:47 He's by Joe Patchen.
  500. 31:49 Say, what's wrong with Joe Patch?
  501. 31:51 No, too much like the sire.
  502. 31:53 What about a name for him?
  503. 31:55 Don't ask me, Pop.
  504. 31:57 Why not? You've named a hundred.
  505. 31:59 We're different, just horses.
  506. 32:02 He makes me feel like I'd be stepping out of my class to try and name him.
  507. 32:07 Have you ever seen her like this before?
  508. 32:08 score.
  509. 32:11 What's the matter with Dan after his owner and...
  510. 32:14 catch
  511. 32:16 Dan Patton.
  512. 32:21 Then Patch wins the heat and the race.
  513. 32:25 - Hey.
  514. 32:26 That sounds good.
  515. 32:27 That's it, Ben.
  516. 32:31 Stand fast.
  517. 32:42 Fire!
  518. 32:44 I
  519. 32:52 I'm going to go.
  520. 32:59 Well, Dern, I...
  521. 33:01 I just can't believe it.
  522. 33:03 The last quarter.
  523. 33:04 31 seconds.
  524. 33:05 But no green place ever stepped that fast, Pop. Up till now they ain't.
  525. 33:09 - Dano?
  526. 33:10 Get ready for a shark.
  527. 33:12 You're the first man ever to own a horse that showed a 2-4 clip with three weeks training.
  528. 33:17 - You're too far.
  529. 33:18 Ben, are you sure? All right. All right.
  530. 33:21 Dude.
  531. 33:21 - Two, four!
  532. 33:23 What?
  533. 33:24 Weeping!
  534. 33:25 He's a well-beater! Yippee!
  535. 33:31 Mr. Palmer!
  536. 33:34 What's wrong?
  537. 33:36 It'll spell it'll pass.
  538. 33:38 Uh...
  539. 33:39 Can't stand it. Good news, I guess.
  540. 33:43 Come on, Dano.
  541. 33:44 You better lay down.
  542. 33:51 Does Dave know about these...
  543. 33:53 spells
  544. 33:54 No, no, no. I don't want to bother him.
  545. 33:58 Easy.
  546. 34:00 He's a big man now.
  547. 34:02 You know, Ben, that boy of mine gets a big piece of money if every ton of...
  548. 34:07 Sulfur dug out of the ground.
  549. 34:10 I think he ought to know, Dannell. Oh, he couldn't.
  550. 34:13 No good.
  551. 34:15 It's nothing, anyway.
  552. 34:17 I'll be all right in no time.
  553. 34:26 Hey.
  554. 34:27 Oh, my gosh.
  555. 34:29 It's left me.
  556. 34:32 Just like that.
  557. 34:34 Well...
  558. 34:36 Hey.
  559. 34:38 I feel like a fighting cock. Now, take it easy, Dan. Oh, go on. Get out of my way, you old broke down side-wheeler.
  560. 34:49 - Frank.
  561. 34:59 - Then you better drive him home, Pop.
  562. 35:01 - Terrible.
  563. 35:02 He'd kick me out of the rig if I tried it.
  564. 35:05 You know what?
  565. 35:07 We're going to Indianapolis.
  566. 35:11 Do we have to?
  567. 35:13 Get yourself into address and we'll catch the 150.
  568. 35:17 I'm going to go.
  569. 35:39 Isn't it?
  570. 35:40 Beautiful.
  571. 35:45 Well, aren't you, Doctor?
  572. 35:47 A little proud of your wife?
  573. 35:48 No, prom's not the word.
  574. 35:50 respectful admiration
  575. 35:51 I'm a humble worshiper.
  576. 35:53 describes it.
  577. 35:55 Don't be ridiculous.
  578. 35:56 No, I'm not.
  579. 35:57 I'm only the instrument that you use to bring us to this. Perhaps then. You discovered the sulfur process.
  580. 36:03 I believe.
  581. 36:05 weak woman's way.
  582. 36:06 You weak?
  583. 36:08 I'm going to go.
  584. 36:22 Goodness.
  585. 36:22 Is this it?
  586. 36:23 Is it?
  587. 36:25 Well, come on.
  588. 36:27 You go, Pop. I'll stay in the cab. No, no, you don't.
  589. 36:30 If I can take it, you can.
  590. 36:32 Mm-hmm.
  591. 36:38 - Mm-hmm.
  592. 36:48 Funny-looking bell, Paul.
  593. 36:50 Ever seen one in the middle of the door before?
  594. 36:53 Must be it, nothing else here.
  595. 36:58 Come on.
  596. 37:04 Bustard. Maybe he'd hear me if I holler. - Pop, don't holler. - Got to the groundhog game.
  597. 37:11 David!
  598. 37:12 Hold on!
  599. 37:14 You ruined everything now.
  600. 37:19 Well...
  601. 37:22 This the David Farmer place?
  602. 37:25 ...trades people at the rear.
  603. 37:26 Hold on.
  604. 37:29 I ain't traded horses.
  605. 37:30 for years. I train them now.
  606. 37:32 I want to see Dave.
  607. 37:33 You know Mr. Palmer? Since he was a yearling.
  608. 37:36 Where's he at?
  609. 37:37 Your name, please.
  610. 37:39 Ben Lathrop.
  611. 37:40 and Sissy.
  612. 37:41 Good moment, please.
  613. 37:51 Lemon.
  614. 37:54 Nice little place you got here, Davy.
  615. 37:57 Where do you eat when it rains?
  616. 38:00 Out under a tree, Ben.
  617. 38:06 Well, Sissy, my dear.
  618. 38:08 You're looking rather more presentable than the last time I saw you.
  619. 38:11 I hope some young man has noticed
  620. 38:13 Oh, no, Miss Dreadnought.
  621. 38:17 I mean Mrs. Palmer.
  622. 38:18 All this girl thinks about is horses.
  623. 38:21 Do?
  624. 38:22 Not really.
  625. 38:24 Well, my dear, I'm sure it's time you began to consider some other plans. How about you forgetting that you used to be a school mom, sweetheart?
  626. 38:32 Darling.
  627. 38:33 Well, it sure is good to see you two again.
  628. 38:36 I know you didn't come up here for nothing.
  629. 38:38 Ben?
  630. 38:39 Out with it.
  631. 38:40 Well, Davey, we, uh...
  632. 38:42 We're just passing through town and, um...
  633. 38:45 Sissy thought of dropping in on you.
  634. 38:47 Didn't you, sis?
  635. 38:49 Get so, Pa.
  636. 38:50 Oh, you old horse trader. Come on, come on. What's on your mind?
  637. 38:53 Oh, straight ahead.
  638. 38:55 That's what one of your hired hands called me.
  639. 39:00 This is what's on my mind mostly.
  640. 39:02 Dan Patch went a quarter in 31 seconds this very day with three weeks work.
  641. 39:09 Holy mackerel!
  642. 39:12 Oh, no. No, it isn't possible. You made a mistake in the timing.
  643. 39:15 I kind of think I can stop a watch when a horse hits the wire.
  644. 39:18 Another thing.
  645. 39:20 If I couldn't judge peace after all these years, I'd quit climbing onto a bike.
  646. 39:25 Davy, that's the fastest I ever rode behind anybody's horse.
  647. 39:29 31 seconds.
  648. 39:32 Great.
  649. 39:32 Balls of fire.
  650. 39:34 What did Dad say?
  651. 39:35 He was tickled.
  652. 39:37 And, uh...
  653. 39:38 That reminds me.
  654. 39:39 I kind of think he'd like to see you one of these days. Well, I'm planning to be up there Friday.
  655. 39:45 Why, we've asked them to come to us for a visit again and again.
  656. 39:49 I see.
  657. 39:49 Yes, we have.
  658. 39:52 Well now they're getting on. Expect they take more comfort right at home.
  659. 40:00 Well, sis, we got to move.
  660. 40:01 Oh, no.
  661. 40:04 Oh, you can't do that. We want you to stay for dinner and spend the night with him.
  662. 40:07 Oh, yes.
  663. 40:09 How nice.
  664. 40:12 I think we'd better be going, Pop.
  665. 40:15 Thanks for the invite, but tomorrow's work day.
  666. 40:18 We got to start drilling houses at six o'clock.
  667. 40:21 So long, Dave.
  668. 40:23 - Goodbye, Mrs. Palmer. - Goodbye.
  669. 40:26 Goodbye, Sissy. Bye. Bye, Sissy.
  670. 40:28 Please, sir.
  671. 40:32 Oh, God.
  672. 40:36 Why did you give me that look when I asked them to stay?
  673. 40:39 The Lesbids are dining with us, too.
  674. 40:40 - Whatever.
  675. 40:43 Can you see Ben and Sissy with the Nesbitts?
  676. 40:47 Perhaps not.
  677. 40:48 But, sweetie pie, if I had my choice between Ben Lathrop and George Nesbitt for an evening,
  678. 40:53 It wouldn't be George.
  679. 40:56 You know, guys, sometimes I think the culture you've acquired is only of the mere.
  680. 41:01 Telegram for you, sir.
  681. 41:12 It's from Mount Natty.
  682. 41:14 That's sick.
  683. 41:16 We'll catch the five o'clock, us home.
  684. 41:17 Darling, I can't go in the distance.
  685. 41:19 Please don't say hustle.
  686. 41:21 Dad always says hustle, I remember.
  687. 41:24 I'll call you for Marksburg.
  688. 41:59 that.
  689. 42:04 I didn't feel.
  690. 42:11 You all right, son?
  691. 42:14 Yeah.
  692. 42:16 Tell them.
  693. 42:18 Greenville.
  694. 42:21 I want her.
  695. 42:23 See
  696. 42:28 to see that damn Pat.
  697. 42:31 window.
  698. 42:33 Not excited.
  699. 42:34 Amen.
  700. 42:43 shut it.
  701. 42:45 Yep. Get a hold of Ben right away.
  702. 42:48 Tell him to send that horse over as fast as he can.
  703. 42:53 Hurry, send him up.
  704. 42:55 Check it.
  705. 43:23 - Time, Lou. - Up to, Diane.
  706. 43:25 - I'm gonna slap one there quick.
  707. 43:46 Dad.
  708. 43:48 Daddy's here.
  709. 43:50 Over there.
  710. 43:52 Just outside the window.
  711. 44:04 It didn't match.
  712. 44:08 Don't you win.
  713. 44:09 ever fail me.
  714. 44:15 And you, sir.
  715. 44:17 Don't sue.
  716. 44:19 Ever.
  717. 44:19 Really?
  718. 44:22 You'll give in.
  719. 44:24 Every chance.
  720. 44:27 I will.
  721. 44:28 Don't worry.
  722. 44:30 There's a lot of the horsemen in me.
  723. 44:34 range.
  724. 44:36 registered under the
  725. 44:37 - The wrong sire.
  726. 44:46 Well...
  727. 44:58 You heard?
  728. 45:17 say something
  729. 45:18 Don't just sit there.
  730. 45:20 Don't seem possible, Dan. It's gone.
  731. 45:24 I might have known.
  732. 45:25 That's all you've said for a week.
  733. 45:27 I wish you'd quit it.
  734. 45:28 I expected so.
  735. 45:29 brought on the worrying about you and me.
  736. 45:33 What have we got to worry about?
  737. 45:35 Maybe it ain't
  738. 45:36 fitting that we should live here alone together.
  739. 45:39 Meaning the tongues will wag?
  740. 45:41 Well, maybe something like that. They might, Chet Williams, if it was anybody but you.
  741. 45:45 As it is?
  742. 45:47 People wouldn't think no more of it if I kept a shoot on the place.
  743. 45:50 Oh, now, looky here. I ain't...
  744. 45:53 Come on.
  745. 45:54 Looked high and low for Dad's will, Aunt Nettie.
  746. 45:57 'Cause he didn't leave one.
  747. 45:59 I think I know what he wanted done.
  748. 46:01 So do I.
  749. 46:03 You're his natural son and heir.
  750. 46:06 I'm his son.
  751. 46:08 But if he queeth me, all he wanted me to have was his last breath.
  752. 46:13 One horse.
  753. 46:15 Dan Patch.
  754. 46:18 I'll keep him as sort of a trust.
  755. 46:22 All the rest? The...
  756. 46:24 farm and...
  757. 46:25 Everything else on it.
  758. 46:28 Well, now, that's real kind of you, Davy, but...
  759. 46:31 I've spent a lot of years right here.
  760. 46:35 I've been kind of thinking I'd be grateful for a change.
  761. 46:38 What I'd like to do is move right spang into Oxford.
  762. 46:42 where I could look out any hour of the day and see folks passing.
  763. 46:49 I understand that, Nettie.
  764. 46:52 So I'll tell you what we'll do about it.
  765. 46:53 I'll take the farm off your hands for...
  766. 46:55 Well, any price you say.
  767. 46:57 Oh, Davy.
  768. 46:59 Would you?
  769. 46:59 Sure.
  770. 47:00 Of course.
  771. 47:01 It's awesome.
  772. 47:02 Well, what's going to happen to me without you? Oh, heaven only knows.
  773. 47:08 Why don't you take him with you?
  774. 47:09 What could he do in town? I ain't gonna farm.
  775. 47:12 I'm just going to set.
  776. 47:14 I've been waiting 40 years for the chance.
  777. 47:17 Yes.
  778. 47:18 I know you have, Aunt Nanny, but...
  779. 47:19 Well, you'll be alone and...
  780. 47:21 Couldn't you use a husband?
  781. 47:23 Uh-huh.
  782. 47:24 Him?
  783. 47:25 Oh, my glory.
  784. 47:27 I'm just a hired man, but if you ask me, that's the way to figure it out.
  785. 47:36 You men.
  786. 47:39 Poor soul.
  787. 47:41 I expect it's my duty.
  788. 47:46 Chet and Daddy going to marry.
  789. 47:48 That'd make a horse laugh.
  790. 47:50 How do you keep a straight face, Dan?
  791. 47:53 They're moving into town.
  792. 47:55 I want to build a training track out there, Ben.
  793. 47:58 and stables.
  794. 47:59 Buy some brood man.
  795. 48:01 How about you taking charge of the whole thing?
  796. 48:04 Just train for me.
  797. 48:05 Well, you know, that strikes me as...
  798. 48:08 What do you say, sis?
  799. 48:10 I say we're doing well enough right here, Pop.
  800. 48:14 Mmm.
  801. 48:20 I'd like to shut this door.
  802. 48:25 I respect that from you.
  803. 48:29 Well, then...
  804. 48:31 What about it?
  805. 48:36 David?
  806. 48:37 There ain't nobody I'd rather work for than you.
  807. 48:41 But we've trained here for a good many years.
  808. 48:45 I guess she's kind of got used to it.
  809. 48:48 - Yeah. - Hates to make change.
  810. 48:50 Heard what she said.
  811. 48:52 What do you say?
  812. 48:54 I hate to disappoint you, Davey.
  813. 48:58 I wouldn't want to refuse you anything.
  814. 49:01 But I've got to say...
  815. 49:04 No.
  816. 49:09 Very well.
  817. 49:12 I'll send to Dan as soon as I find a new trainer.
  818. 49:18 Mister, don't take me.
  819. 49:19 Where are you from?
  820. 49:23 Just that I want Dan Patch out there where Dad raised him.
  821. 49:30 Please, mister, no matter who you get.
  822. 49:34 Don't trust everything to us.
  823. 49:37 You see him yourself each day,
  824. 49:41 What?
  825. 49:42 Watch his coat.
  826. 49:44 Watch his appetite and be sure he does.
  827. 49:46 What are you talking about?
  828. 49:48 I'll be lucky if I see this fellow once a month.
  829. 49:54 Won't you and Miss Trent?
  830. 49:56 - Will this Palmer be living there so far?
  831. 49:58 - Ruth?
  832. 49:59 At the farm?
  833. 50:02 Couldn't get her out there with a team of mules.
  834. 50:12 Maybe we could take the job, Pop.
  835. 50:15 Because I won't be there?
  836. 50:17 Oh, mister, I...
  837. 50:27 We don't like owners fooling around our horses.
  838. 50:36 Get into her, Ben.
  839. 50:39 Who can say about a gal?
  840. 50:42 When are you going to start building your track?
  841. 50:44 Right away.
  842. 50:55 - A boodle, gentlemen.
  843. 50:57 Oh, sure.
  844. 51:05 Let it come from you, voodoo.
  845. 51:09 If you wake up in the morning, kind of scared and full of dread,
  846. 51:19 I say devil slide back down below. I'm a long, long way from dead. When your bones ache in the evening and you find that
  847. 51:29 Say not yet, devil, wait around till I'm plenty good and dead. When the night comes on forever, you can't raise your tired old head.
  848. 51:44 Forget that devil, say, "Oh, Lord."
  849. 51:48 Come and take.
  850. 51:50 me when I'm dead.
  851. 51:54 Can't get to them
  852. 51:57 Can't get you now.
  853. 51:59 Devil hang around, but he don't know how to take you down in the cold, cold ground.
  854. 52:12 If the Lord say no
  855. 52:16 When the trumpet's sound
  856. 52:19 If the Lord say no...
  857. 52:23 When the trophy...
  858. 52:27 Oh, oh.
  859. 52:32 Yeah.
  860. 52:33 All right.
  861. 52:34 - On the clock. - Let's hit it, boys.
  862. 52:38 Right there, George.
  863. 52:40 Deal, little guy!
  864. 52:45 That's merit!
  865. 52:46 Lay it down.
  866. 53:02 There she is, Dolly.
  867. 53:03 three weeks, that'll be a half mile track.
  868. 53:06 - Hello, Chris. - Hello, Dave.
  869. 53:08 - Get in there! - Come on, George!
  870. 53:12 Hold, hold.
  871. 53:13 Oh, oh. Come on around, little lad.
  872. 53:20 Get that mixed team off the job! I'm tired of all of them!
  873. 53:25 - Chris.
  874. 53:31 How high will we do on the outer edge?
  875. 53:33 All three people.
  876. 53:34 plenty for an hour track like this.
  877. 53:37 No, no, not there, guys.
  878. 53:42 How much will all of this cost?
  879. 53:44 Oh, $35,000, maybe $40,000.
  880. 53:46 - What a thing like this?
  881. 53:49 That's Wix.
  882. 53:51 Man's got to have some fun, darling.
  883. 53:54 Pretty expensive fun.
  884. 53:57 Oh, I don't know. How much did your greenhouses and the landscaping cost
  885. 54:01 Shadow Lawrence.
  886. 54:13 - Morning, ma'am.
  887. 54:17 Right breezy today.
  888. 54:20 Why aren't you working?
  889. 54:21 What?
  890. 54:23 Who had to take care of me?
  891. 54:28 David!
  892. 54:30 David!
  893. 54:32 How do we go now?
  894. 54:34 Right away, dear.
  895. 54:39 All right.
  896. 54:43 For exchange
  897. 54:46 I'm not sure.
  898. 54:48 Don't try to like me.
  899. 54:51 Don't pull together.
  900. 54:53 Hate each other
  901. 54:55 Delude in the weather, oh Lord, when I'm getting here.
  902. 55:02 forever.
  903. 55:03 go.
  904. 55:04 him.
  905. 55:05 Don't put me in, oh, don't put me in no mixer.
  906. 55:12 He
  907. 55:16 David?
  908. 55:17 David.
  909. 55:19 Come on.
  910. 55:35 Amen.
  911. 55:38 Amen.
  912. 55:59 Daughters in the first heat...
  913. 56:01 of the 2:30 pace.
  914. 56:03 Why didn't you bring your missus?
  915. 56:04 See Dan Pax make his first start.
  916. 56:07 Oh, my wife thinks...
  917. 56:08 fooling around with people.
  918. 56:09 horses just a waste of time.
  919. 56:11 Now that's a no-do.
  920. 56:12 Well, here we go, fella.
  921. 56:14 Can he win it, Ben?
  922. 56:15 Well, if he fell down and broke all four legs, maybe he wouldn't.
  923. 56:19 Come on, Dan. Let's get out, then.
  924. 56:21 - Jog around with 'em. - Ready for the 2:30 pace!
  925. 56:28 Benzler.
  926. 56:28 That's about that horse, isn't it?
  927. 56:30 I wonder what you're going to do.
  928. 56:30 Call me back.
  929. 56:31 I think he's gonna be the greatest pacer that ever lived.
  930. 56:35 - I called.
  931. 56:36 plumb crazy.
  932. 56:40 Take back number three
  933. 56:43 Among numbers...
  934. 56:44 - Seven.
  935. 56:45 Watch your bull horse!
  936. 56:46 Number five.
  937. 56:48 Go!
  938. 56:58 Easy now.
  939. 57:12 Oh, my God.
  940. 57:17 I'm not going to be able to do it.
  941. 57:20 Take it easy.
  942. 57:31 Come on, people.
  943. 57:33 Oh, you're beautiful.
  944. 57:39 - Congratulations, Brent. - Just a buggy ride.
  945. 57:42 Huh?
  946. 57:43 Stop!
  947. 57:43 Oh!
  948. 57:44 Huh?
  949. 57:46 Right, Snoozer, your pal's a great guy. We can go to the Grand Circuit with him next year, Pop. Well, now, let's don't get too excited.
  950. 57:54 Nobody'd rather say yes better than me.
  951. 57:56 He might not pull my arms off against them kind of horses.
  952. 58:00 But, Davy, you don't talk about putting a green pacer on the Grand Circuit after one heat in the county pace.
  953. 58:07 Let's see what he does right here in Indiana the rest of the year.
  954. 58:24 The result of the third and final hint
  955. 58:27 On the 2:30 page.
  956. 58:30 Amen.
  957. 58:30 Head!
  958. 58:31 with the heat.
  959. 58:33 - I'm a baby!
  960. 58:34 Oh, yes. Oh, baby.
  961. 58:52 Results of the food hurting pain.
  962. 58:55 And hands.
  963. 58:57 I hate
  964. 58:58 and the rain.
  965. 59:02 - Sure.
  966. 59:03 book us.
  967. 59:07 mighty always
  968. 59:08 THE FAMILY.
  969. 59:24 Oh, my God.
  970. 59:33 Hello, Dan Boy.
  971. 59:34 Hello, Smiler. Evening, folks. Well, how's Dan after his campaign?
  972. 59:38 I'll bring him out and you can see.
  973. 59:39 Well, hello, stranger. I kind of thought you'd forgotten us.
  974. 59:43 Oh, no, it's not that. It's just that...
  975. 59:45 Well, I...
  976. 59:46 Well, it's kind of hard for him to get away from home.
  977. 59:50 Oh, say, he's quite a horse.
  978. 59:53 What are your plans for him, Ben?
  979. 59:54 Well, with all the money you spent on them broodmares, he ought to be a pappy this time next year. Uh-huh.
  980. 1:00:00 Tell you what I've done.
  981. 1:00:02 My arms need a rest.
  982. 1:00:04 I've entered this scoundrel on the Grand Circuit from Windsor to Memphis. Oh, good. Those horses will make him step. I doubt it.
  983. 1:00:11 It's great to be crazy.
  984. 1:00:13 Wait and see.
  985. 1:00:56 The fellows all know...
  986. 1:00:58 You ain't got a chance.
  987. 1:00:59 in this path horse.
  988. 1:01:00 Not a chance.
  989. 1:01:01 Well, then it's settled. We don't start again anymore.
  990. 1:01:03 Well, it's all right, O'Nein. It's what we should do. That's today.
  991. 1:01:06 Lexington, but what about from now on? All the rest of the season.
  992. 1:01:10 Every time they start him.
  993. 1:01:12 Well, I see.
  994. 1:01:16 Are you sure you can't drive, Pop?
  995. 1:01:18 Don't see how I can.
  996. 1:01:20 Hello, everybody.
  997. 1:01:22 We haven't seen you since Cleaning. Hello Dave.
  998. 1:01:26 Why don't you let us know you're coming?
  999. 1:01:28 I didn't know myself until this morning. What's the matter, Ben? Bob's got sciatica. He can't drive today. What are we doing?
  1000. 1:01:34 Oh, get another driver.
  1001. 1:01:36 - Got one. - Who?
  1002. 1:01:37 I'm looking at him.
  1003. 1:01:41 Me?
  1004. 1:01:42 Oh, I...
  1005. 1:01:43 I wouldn't think of it.
  1006. 1:01:44 Drive Dan Patch in a race?
  1007. 1:01:46 Ben, it isn't your back, it's your head.
  1008. 1:01:48 Look, all you got is sit there and try and talk him back.
  1009. 1:01:51 And if you won't do it, I'll scratch him.
  1010. 1:01:54 I mean, a driver in the circuit wouldn't like to see him hurt or lamed.
  1011. 1:01:58 Yeah.
  1012. 1:01:59 Well, I never drove in a race. You're Dan Palmer's son.
  1013. 1:02:03 That's good enough for me.
  1014. 1:02:06 Sturton Bell.
  1015. 1:02:08 Quick.
  1016. 1:02:09 Oh, I'm sorry, Ben. I just couldn't.
  1017. 1:02:12 ALL RIGHT.
  1018. 1:02:13 Sissy, get over to the judges.
  1019. 1:02:14 and they scratch you.
  1020. 1:02:22 Pokemon.
  1021. 1:02:24 Take off the coat, mister.
  1022. 1:02:26 - Oh, now wait. I-- - Take it off.
  1023. 1:02:28 - Well, just a minute, you heard her.
  1024. 1:02:51 THE FAMILY.
  1025. 1:02:51 Vats?
  1026. 1:02:52 wanted and the judges
  1027. 1:02:53 - Go on.
  1028. 1:02:56 Driver of Dan Patch
  1029. 1:02:57 quantities.
  1030. 1:02:59 stand.
  1031. 1:03:19 - You want to see me, gentlemen? - Yes, Mr. Farmer.
  1032. 1:03:22 You're both the owner and driver of Dan Patch today?
  1033. 1:03:25 - I'm afraid so, sir. - Well, we're going to lighten your task.
  1034. 1:03:28 You've got a little bit too much worse, it seems.
  1035. 1:03:30 All the other entries in the 210 place have been scratched.
  1036. 1:03:33 All you've got to do is jog once around the track
  1037. 1:03:36 And the purse is yours.
  1038. 1:03:38 Oh, I see.
  1039. 1:03:42 THE END OF THE END OF THE
  1040. 1:03:44 A lot of people here today, gentlemen.
  1041. 1:03:47 I'm afraid most of them will be disappointed if I just jockey them around. No doubt about it.
  1042. 1:03:54 Suppose I drive him a mile against time. Just a thing. Let's see how he's alive. Send him against his sire's record.
  1043. 1:04:02 Against Joe Patchen's record?
  1044. 1:04:05 Well, I don't know this.
  1045. 1:04:09 Well, uh...
  1046. 1:04:10 All right.
  1047. 1:04:12 Good luck.
  1048. 1:04:14 The other starters and the 210 pace.
  1049. 1:04:16 having failed to appear,
  1050. 1:04:19 Dan Patch will go an exhibition mile
  1051. 1:04:22 Against time.
  1052. 1:04:23 Driven by his owner.
  1053. 1:04:25 Mr. David Palmer.
  1054. 1:04:27 The horse will make an effort to equal the record of his sire
  1055. 1:04:31 Joe Patchen?
  1056. 1:04:32 Two, one and a quarter.
  1057. 1:04:35 I'm going to go.
  1058. 1:04:40 I'm going to go.
  1059. 1:04:41 Go!
  1060. 1:04:59 Half a minute left.
  1061. 1:05:06 He's reading that horse good.
  1062. 1:05:08 Three quarters and 132.
  1063. 1:05:09 - Good morning.
  1064. 1:05:25 Ladies and gentlemen,
  1065. 1:05:27 One patch.
  1066. 1:05:28 Wentz to Myral.
  1067. 1:05:29 In one minute!
  1068. 1:05:31 59, I'm
  1069. 1:05:32 Three quarters.
  1070. 1:05:34 breaking the record of his
  1071. 1:05:36 Great sire!
  1072. 1:05:37 by one
  1073. 1:05:38 Come on, hop!
  1074. 1:05:39 Sucker!
  1075. 1:05:40 You still think I'm crazy, Bob?
  1076. 1:05:43 But I can't get over that date.
  1077. 1:05:46 Bradley and him, I guess.
  1078. 1:05:49 You drove a nice mile, sir. - Congratulations, Mr. Palmer. - Thank you. Yes, sir.
  1079. 1:05:55 Well, he did all the work.
  1080. 1:05:58 Well, during my honorary time...
  1081. 1:06:01 I'd be dogged if you didn't make me forget my back.
  1082. 1:06:04 You think you're pretty smart, don't you? Oh, no one could have driven in there.
  1083. 1:06:09 Ben, what's the world's pacing record?
  1084. 1:06:11 Star pointer, 159 and a quarter.
  1085. 1:06:13 We'll go for that next season. Mr. David Palmer?
  1086. 1:06:15 Right here.
  1087. 1:06:17 Telegram for you, sir.
  1088. 1:06:18 Excuse me.
  1089. 1:06:32 I have to go right back to Indianapolis.
  1090. 1:06:36 Where's my hat and coat?
  1091. 1:06:40 You ain't signed for this yet, mister.
  1092. 1:07:01 Thanks, Izzy.
  1093. 1:07:03 Well...
  1094. 1:07:04 See you both out of the farm.
  1095. 1:07:05 - Bye. - So long.
  1096. 1:07:18 Hello, Sissy.
  1097. 1:07:20 See, there's a...
  1098. 1:07:21 Pretty good show in town. How about you and me seeing it tonight?
  1099. 1:07:27 I'm sorry, but...
  1100. 1:07:28 Pop don't feel so good. I've got to stay with him.
  1101. 1:07:31 I'm fit to fiddle.
  1102. 1:07:33 You go right ahead.
  1103. 1:07:35 There you are.
  1104. 1:07:36 Where will I pick you up?
  1105. 1:07:40 Yeah.
  1106. 1:07:41 He's always like that, Bud.
  1107. 1:07:43 He never admits he's sick.
  1108. 1:07:45 He's got an awful back, though.
  1109. 1:07:47 I gotta keep putting out towels on it till it gets to sleep.
  1110. 1:07:50 Well, I'll keep trying.
  1111. 1:07:52 - Yes, yes.
  1112. 1:07:54 I could be awful crazy about you if you give me a chance.
  1113. 1:08:00 Well, that's nice, Buck.
  1114. 1:08:01 That's real nice.
  1115. 1:08:03 I've got to look after Pop right now.
  1116. 1:08:06 I'm going to go.
  1117. 1:08:13 Why did you give that young fella the cold shoulder?
  1118. 1:08:17 Take care of your back, Pa.
  1119. 1:08:19 You know dang well I never let you fuss around.
  1120. 1:08:24 - But I don't feel so good myself.
  1121. 1:08:27 I guess that mile down went sort of...
  1122. 1:08:30 You kind of let down.
  1123. 1:08:32 Yeah.
  1124. 1:08:34 You're let down, all right.
  1125. 1:08:36 And I'll tell you why.
  1126. 1:08:39 Miss Davies gone.
  1127. 1:08:42 It's been going on since before you put on long skirts.
  1128. 1:08:46 thought it was funny when you were
  1129. 1:08:47 I'm a kid.
  1130. 1:08:49 I don't now.
  1131. 1:08:57 I...
  1132. 1:08:58 gonna do.
  1133. 1:09:01 and I'll tell you what we'll do.
  1134. 1:09:03 Bud lives in months.
  1135. 1:09:05 We'll give him an invite to the farm when we get home.
  1136. 1:09:10 How's that?
  1137. 1:09:13 All right.
  1138. 1:09:15 and you be real nice to him.
  1139. 1:09:18 Here, here.
  1140. 1:09:22 I'll try to...
  1141. 1:09:32 Darling, thank heaven you're here.
  1142. 1:09:34 Guess what Dan Patches didn't say. David, David, I can't be interested in a thing like that just now.
  1143. 1:09:38 Didn't you get my telegram? Oh, yes. Yes, I did. What's up?
  1144. 1:09:41 United States software has canceled your contract.
  1145. 1:09:44 Representative called this afternoon.
  1146. 1:09:47 They're adopting a new process that...
  1147. 1:09:48 The lemonade's yours.
  1148. 1:09:52 Mr. Joltz.
  1149. 1:09:53 A jolt?
  1150. 1:09:54 It's a disaster.
  1151. 1:09:56 We have only the income from our investments.
  1152. 1:09:59 Well, at least we won't starve. We can always-- Don't be ridiculous.
  1153. 1:10:03 I've been over our account.
  1154. 1:10:04 Your farm cost us almost 20,000 last year.
  1155. 1:10:12 That much.
  1156. 1:10:13 That much.
  1157. 1:10:15 It's all there.
  1158. 1:10:17 You'll have to sell it. Hand the horses at once.
  1159. 1:10:30 Son of horses.
  1160. 1:10:34 But I can't.
  1161. 1:10:36 What about Dan and...
  1162. 1:10:37 What about Ben and Sissy?
  1163. 1:10:39 David Palmer, have you lost your mind?
  1164. 1:10:43 What?
  1165. 1:10:54 Hello.
  1166. 1:10:58 Bust my bridges.
  1167. 1:11:03 I said hello.
  1168. 1:11:05 Close.
  1169. 1:11:07 Um...
  1170. 1:11:08 No Bud Ransom?
  1171. 1:11:09 - Hello. - Please reach.
  1172. 1:11:12 Well, now, this is quite a contraption.
  1173. 1:11:14 The worst of it is that someday these things are going to put the driving horse out of business.
  1174. 1:11:18 Nobody in their right mind would travel in a stinking thing like this.
  1175. 1:11:24 I ain't speaking about city fellas like you.
  1176. 1:11:28 I don't know any better.
  1177. 1:11:30 Well, Ben, I was born right in this house.
  1178. 1:11:32 Maybe so, but you've changed plenty.
  1179. 1:11:38 Ceci, do you suppose you could...
  1180. 1:11:40 Dig up a bite to eat for a city slicker.
  1181. 1:11:53 Well, during my own return.
  1182. 1:11:56 I thought we was here for keeps.
  1183. 1:12:00 What about Dan Patch?
  1184. 1:12:02 Gonna let him go with the rest?
  1185. 1:12:06 No, no, I'm gonna try and keep him.
  1186. 1:12:09 Looks like we've got to start hunting up some horses to train.
  1187. 1:12:12 You ain't got a thing to worry about, Ben.
  1188. 1:12:14 You got a home with us for life.
  1189. 1:12:16 Any sissy.
  1190. 1:12:17 You keep crowding, bud, and the starters have to send you right to the bar.
  1191. 1:12:21 I heard my number call that time.
  1192. 1:12:23 Pop, if you want to get by the 10 o'clock train, you better start. I kind of thought we might talk him into spending the night.
  1193. 1:12:32 I don't think we have room now that Mister's here.
  1194. 1:12:35 Well...
  1195. 1:12:36 You can come over next week, bud. I expect we'll be here till then.
  1196. 1:12:41 Sis, take a look at the Stacy Mayer after a while.
  1197. 1:12:45 She's due to fall any time now, Davy.
  1198. 1:12:48 Oh, you know something?
  1199. 1:12:52 I don't like that fellow, bud.
  1200. 1:12:55 You don't even know him.
  1201. 1:12:57 It's a good young wife, Scott.
  1202. 1:12:59 You couldn't drive a mule for me.
  1203. 1:13:06 You're hurting my hand, mister.
  1204. 1:13:22 Why do we have to watch this, Mayor?
  1205. 1:13:25 boys night off.
  1206. 1:13:30 Mr. Do you have to do it?
  1207. 1:13:32 Yes, Sissy, I do. I can't stand the expense any longer. But it doesn't have to be an expense.
  1208. 1:13:37 If you come here and live and put your mind to it, you can make it pay.
  1209. 1:13:41 I've forgotten one thing.
  1210. 1:13:42 My wife.
  1211. 1:13:43 She hates it.
  1212. 1:13:47 Oh, mister, I haven't forgotten.
  1213. 1:13:52 Amen.
  1214. 1:14:14 Come on.
  1215. 1:14:18 Kidney college.
  1216. 1:14:20 She'll die. Hurry. Come on.
  1217. 1:14:31 Match.
  1218. 1:14:34 What can I do? Get a wash tub from the back porch and another ladder and hurry.
  1219. 1:14:39 I'm going to go.
  1220. 1:14:51 Get another blanket ready. How long do we keep this up? I don't know. Maybe another answer more.
  1221. 1:14:57 I'm sorry.
  1222. 1:15:30 Yes.
  1223. 1:15:34 Blanket's cooling off.
  1224. 1:15:35 In a minute.
  1225. 1:15:53 We've saved her, mister.
  1226. 1:15:54 You mean you did.
  1227. 1:15:56 Will she have her fauna?
  1228. 1:15:58 I hope so.
  1229. 1:16:00 Mr. Fox.
  1230. 1:16:02 Stop!
  1231. 1:16:08 Sounds like Dan and Snows.
  1232. 1:16:11 And what guy have you missed on me?
  1233. 1:16:13 I'll go see.
  1234. 1:16:15 Where are you, Mr. Frank?
  1235. 1:16:21 Ah!
  1236. 1:16:23 property.
  1237. 1:16:24 David! David!
  1238. 1:17:07 Come on.
  1239. 1:17:33 I'm going to go.
  1240. 1:17:46 Oh, my God.
  1241. 1:18:10 I'm not sure what you're doing.
  1242. 1:18:25 Come on!
  1243. 1:18:28 Huh?
  1244. 1:18:29 Come on.
  1245. 1:18:38 Come on.
  1246. 1:18:51 I'm going to go.
  1247. 1:19:02 Come on.
  1248. 1:19:03 Come on.
  1249. 1:19:36 Wait.
  1250. 1:19:39 You sit down.
  1251. 1:19:45 Amen.
  1252. 1:19:46 I used to do that.
  1253. 1:19:54 - Come on.
  1254. 1:20:20 I'm sorry.
  1255. 1:20:24 It's out.
  1256. 1:20:28 You can straighten the house and go to bed.
  1257. 1:20:40 Hold on.
  1258. 1:20:42 It's not the way to house.
  1259. 1:20:45 Take a look at the mayor.
  1260. 1:20:59 Look.
  1261. 1:21:10 Dance first.
  1262. 1:21:12 sound as a dog.
  1263. 1:21:13 Oh, that's good.
  1264. 1:21:18 I'll stay here to watch. You go to bed.
  1265. 1:21:22 Everything's all right now.
  1266. 1:21:24 Is it?
  1267. 1:21:27 Oh, Sissy, please don't.
  1268. 1:21:30 I'm sorry.
  1269. 1:21:32 Guess I'm just tired.
  1270. 1:21:35 Let me stay here, mister. It'll be the last time.
  1271. 1:21:44 All right.
  1272. 1:22:12 Nice short back.
  1273. 1:22:15 Good luck.
  1274. 1:22:20 You go to sleep.
  1275. 1:22:25 Mr. We...
  1276. 1:22:27 St. Tim and his family in the garden.
  1277. 1:22:31 Who...
  1278. 1:22:33 Yes, too.
  1279. 1:22:34 Together?
  1280. 1:22:42 Amen.
  1281. 1:23:07 What on earth?
  1282. 1:23:09 What happened?
  1283. 1:23:10 Ruth?
  1284. 1:23:16 I'm gonna sell this place and keep the...
  1285. 1:23:18 father.
  1286. 1:23:19 But don't try to talk, dear.
  1287. 1:23:23 You must lie down.
  1288. 1:23:27 In your room.
  1289. 1:23:28 - I'm all right. - What was it, dear? The automobile? Well, never mind. I'll call Dr. Dalton and he'll get...
  1290. 1:23:33 I...
  1291. 1:23:34 I helped to put out a fire at the farm.
  1292. 1:23:37 We're going to move out there.
  1293. 1:23:39 I think I can make it pay.
  1294. 1:23:41 My dear David, you...
  1295. 1:23:42 All out of your mind.
  1296. 1:23:44 On the contrary. I never felt more sane.
  1297. 1:23:48 David, not that chair.
  1298. 1:23:50 Robert was sort.
  1299. 1:23:51 Oh, David!
  1300. 1:23:55 Beautiful bed in chair.
  1301. 1:23:57 How could you?
  1302. 1:23:58 Oh, I'm sorry, Ruth.
  1303. 1:24:00 Tired, I guess.
  1304. 1:24:01 Well...
  1305. 1:24:03 Get out of those filthy clothes and into a good hot bath.
  1306. 1:24:08 may rescue.
  1307. 1:24:09 I hope.
  1308. 1:24:10 No.
  1309. 1:24:13 I want to settle first.
  1310. 1:24:15 I'm selling shadow lawn and...
  1311. 1:24:17 We're moving to Oxford.
  1312. 1:24:19 And you call that sane?
  1313. 1:24:21 I call it weak.
  1314. 1:24:22 It'll take a real effort to maintain our position here now.
  1315. 1:24:26 easier to sleep back to what you came from.
  1316. 1:24:31 I'm not quitting, Ruth.
  1317. 1:24:34 I'm just going to where I want to be.
  1318. 1:24:37 where I've come to feel I belong.
  1319. 1:24:41 I don't think it's home here.
  1320. 1:24:44 I never have, really.
  1321. 1:24:47 think that all of this is worth an honest effort.
  1322. 1:24:49 Oh, you don't.
  1323. 1:24:51 Slopping hogs and pitching manure, as your Aunt Lettie used to say, is more your style, I suppose.
  1324. 1:24:57 Maybe.
  1325. 1:25:01 But it's a stock farm now.
  1326. 1:25:03 I'm going to raise horses.
  1327. 1:25:05 I don't care what it is.
  1328. 1:25:07 You'll not take me into any such life as that.
  1329. 1:25:11 Do you realize what you've just said?
  1330. 1:25:14 Perfectly.
  1331. 1:25:29 You persist in his unoperable ways.
  1332. 1:25:31 Molly?
  1333. 1:25:32 You and I have breached
  1334. 1:25:34 And for what, David? For what?
  1335. 1:25:38 Mixed in, don't stride alike.
  1336. 1:25:43 Don't pull together.
  1337. 1:25:45 Hate each other
  1338. 1:25:48 Delude in the weather, oh Lord, when I'm getting yoked up
  1339. 1:25:54 forever.
  1340. 1:25:55 Don't.
  1341. 1:25:56 Don't put me in.
  1342. 1:25:58 Don't.
  1343. 1:25:58 put me in.
  1344. 1:26:00 Oh, don't put me in
  1345. 1:26:03 No mixed tea.
  1346. 1:26:06 David, you're not listening to me!
  1347. 1:26:13 Okay.
  1348. 1:26:22 Ruth, you're a wonderful woman.
  1349. 1:26:25 level-headed, intelligent, but
  1350. 1:26:27 Well...
  1351. 1:26:29 This is your wife.
  1352. 1:26:31 Shadow Lodge.
  1353. 1:26:33 You've made it.
  1354. 1:26:34 And you may keep it.
  1355. 1:26:36 And everything else we've got except the...
  1356. 1:26:38 father.
  1357. 1:26:40 That's my way.
  1358. 1:26:43 I'm going back there right now.
  1359. 1:26:45 I'm going to go.
  1360. 1:26:53 Oh, mister. I didn't think you were ever coming back. I thought...
  1361. 1:27:08 Dan knows it's his son.
  1362. 1:27:32 I got this just for you.
  1363. 1:27:33 before I listen.
  1364. 1:27:35 Indianapolis.
  1365. 1:27:47 That's a lot of money.
  1366. 1:27:49 Yes, yes it is.
  1367. 1:27:53 But you couldn't sell him.
  1368. 1:27:58 I think Dad would want me to.
  1369. 1:28:00 Want you to sell Dan Patch?
  1370. 1:28:05 You sell him, mister. I'll hate you as long as I live.
  1371. 1:28:08 I'm not sure what you're doing.
  1372. 1:28:14 Sissy, listen to me.
  1373. 1:28:17 You don't understand.
  1374. 1:28:20 Look.
  1375. 1:28:24 dand.
  1376. 1:28:25 He doesn't need us anymore.
  1377. 1:28:26 He's famous.
  1378. 1:28:28 But if we sell him, we can hold on to him.
  1379. 1:28:31 Give that little...
  1380. 1:28:31 fellow, all these fools, a chance to show what they can do.
  1381. 1:28:36 Say, wait.
  1382. 1:28:38 Yes, we...
  1383. 1:28:40 You'll stay here always, I hope.
  1384. 1:28:51 - I love you.
  1385. 1:28:53 Please don't do that.
  1386. 1:28:56 We can't. We must.
  1387. 1:28:58 Oh, yes, we can.
  1388. 1:29:01 Sit down, Sissy.
  1389. 1:29:23 say I've got something
  1390. 1:29:27 and I have separated.
  1391. 1:29:28 through.
  1392. 1:29:30 She keeps shadow on.
  1393. 1:29:45 Come on.
  1394. 1:29:56 Must be selling.
  1395. 1:29:58 Yes, Dan.
  1396. 1:30:00 Mr. Savage is a rich man.
  1397. 1:30:02 He can do something with him.
  1398. 1:30:03 that we never could do.
  1399. 1:30:04 Show him to the whole world.
  1400. 1:30:06 the whole world.
  1401. 1:30:08 Come on.
  1402. 1:30:13 All right, Miss T.
  1403. 1:30:16 I mean, darling.
  1404. 1:30:19 And so, for the next four years, Dan patched the country in a private car.
  1405. 1:30:27 to become the idol of a honey.
  1406. 1:30:29 His appearance at a state fair was called Dan Patch Day.
  1407. 1:30:33 more eagerly awaited by most
  1408. 1:30:35 than Christmas.
  1409. 1:30:36 All he did on such a day was try to break his own world record.
  1410. 1:30:40 since no pacer could approach his
  1411. 1:30:42 speed
  1412. 1:30:44 The running horses went with him to make him think he had competition.
  1413. 1:30:48 But what did that matter?
  1414. 1:30:50 came in multitude
  1415. 1:30:51 just
  1416. 1:30:51 SEE HIM IN THE
  1417. 1:30:52 action. The money paid for the privilege ran into millions.
  1418. 1:31:07 Come on.
  1419. 1:31:26 Whether we are lucky enough to see him or not,
  1420. 1:31:29 old and young alike became familiar with his magic name.
  1421. 1:31:33 through the many, many things that bore it
  1422. 1:31:54 Hundreds of articles in daily use were named after
  1423. 1:31:58 A mail order catalog looked like a racing form.
  1424. 1:32:01 Fast-talking gentlemen got fancy prices for old horseshoes.
  1425. 1:32:06 It's supposed to have come from a hoof of the great Dan Patch. Had he worn a tenth of them, Dan would have been a centipede.
  1426. 1:32:15 And so came a day when Dan Patch was to race for the last time... against the slender hand of the stopwatch. Mortales...
  1427. 1:32:23 more difficult to beat than any horse.
  1428. 1:32:27 I'm sorry.
  1429. 1:32:34 I'm going to go.
  1430. 1:32:37 among those who came from all over the country to this country.
  1431. 1:32:41 great event
  1432. 1:32:42 It was a small group.
  1433. 1:32:43 a new intestine.
  1434. 1:32:44 ball.
  1435. 1:32:46 Mommy.
  1436. 1:32:47 She'd like to show you her.
  1437. 1:32:49 Ladies!
  1438. 1:32:51 Eh?
  1439. 1:32:52 Do they win?
  1440. 1:32:53 We're welcome back!
  1441. 1:32:55 To his home!
  1442. 1:32:56 The pride of Minnesota!
  1443. 1:32:59 The one and only... It was foaled and raised in Indiana! Whoa!
  1444. 1:33:07 Here comes that town! Hey! Gentlemen!
  1445. 1:33:13 Right!
  1446. 1:33:14 But the berries.
  1447. 1:33:15 Here in our state,
  1448. 1:33:17 which now is his home.
  1449. 1:33:19 Damn patch!
  1450. 1:33:21 will go a mile against time!
  1451. 1:33:23 Oh!
  1452. 1:33:24 Good people?
  1453. 1:33:26 He will be retired.
  1454. 1:33:27 After today!
  1455. 1:33:29 The great...
  1456. 1:33:30 Dance!
  1457. 1:33:31 Patch!
  1458. 1:33:32 will never be seen again!
  1459. 1:33:35 On!
  1460. 1:33:36 Eddie!
  1461. 1:33:37 - Frank.
  1462. 1:33:39 I thought those are runners with him. Got to have prompters.
  1463. 1:33:42 The only thing that can stay with him is a runner.
  1464. 1:33:48 Go!
  1465. 1:34:42 I'm not a man.
  1466. 1:34:44 Come on.
  1467. 1:34:46 Sharon Slipper.
  1468. 1:34:47 Now.
  1469. 1:34:52 Oh, holy.
  1470. 1:34:53 And goodbye.
  1471. 1:34:56 You ain't crying over a horse.
  1472. 1:34:59 Find your own business.
  1473. 1:35:01 That's the greatest horse that ever lived!
  1474. 1:35:04 Somebody told me that'll long happen.
