WEBVTT

00:00:20.610 --> 00:00:27.515
- Si, I was all set. I had my flag. I got in the pamphlet and the mail the week before. A beautiful weekend

00:00:27.515 --> 00:00:34.030
- was planned at the Polish-American Suds Festival in Panawonomi, Wisconsin. I'd plan to show you the

00:00:34.030 --> 00:00:40.674
- footage this very week. Well, things happen for a reason, don't they? And although it's impossible to

00:00:40.674 --> 00:00:47.710
- draw a straight line between my broken carburetor and the Monroe County Fall Festival, let's try, shall we?

00:00:49.602 --> 00:00:56.448
- You're going to have to tell me the story here about how you got involved in collecting a lot of Coca-Cola

00:00:56.448 --> 00:01:03.039
- stuff. We've collected them for years and years and years. How did you start? What was the first piece

00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:05.854
- that you got? Oh, goodness, probably trays.

00:01:06.402 --> 00:01:12.700
- Now, these are reproductions. These are reproductions. Now, everyone should have the IU Tower.

00:01:12.700 --> 00:01:19.926
- That's right. All colleagues. That's still Bobby when he had brown hair. That's right. Now, in Philadelphia,

00:01:19.926 --> 00:01:26.621
- these were selling as empty little mini-coat cases. See the nails? Yes, and they had little bottles.

00:01:26.621 --> 00:01:34.046
- I remember that. And they had bottles in them, but they were plastic molded together, $35. And I thought, geez.

00:01:34.242 --> 00:01:41.637
- We have the miniature cases. We'll sell them for $9.50 and throw in the toothpicks. Now, what lady wouldn't

00:01:41.637 --> 00:01:48.484
- like to have one of those for the shelf? I wonder. For kids and table? I wonder. Actually, my image

00:01:48.484 --> 00:01:55.331
- of what Santa Claus looks like comes a lot from those old ads. Sure. It never quite looks that good

00:01:55.331 --> 00:02:02.110
- in the department store. That's right. And of course, we have the Sprite yo-yo. This is the yo-yo.

00:02:02.434 --> 00:02:12.457
- Yeah, if you ever use the yoyo. Okay, now here's a question for you. Can you remember the first Coca-Cola

00:02:12.457 --> 00:02:21.534
- you ever had? The first Coca-Cola you ever bought? Well, you've been a Republican for how long?

00:02:22.178 --> 00:02:29.116
- Well, I have to tell you about my age. I've been a Republican for 50 years. 50 years? Well, that's a

00:02:29.116 --> 00:02:36.191
- long time. So you've always voted Republican. That's quite a record. No, I voted for Kennedy. You did,

00:02:36.191 --> 00:02:43.335
- huh? Well, so you feel good about the election this year? I certainly do, sure. Well, good luck to you.

00:02:43.335 --> 00:02:51.166
- I hope things go OK for you. Thank you kindly. It's always good to be on the winning side. It certainly is, sure.

00:02:56.258 --> 00:03:03.071
- Hi, how are you doing? We're from Channel 3 and thought we'd ask you a few questions. Just finished

00:03:03.071 --> 00:03:10.156
- talking to Republicans and thought we'd walk across the way here and talk to you all. How does it feel?

00:03:10.156 --> 00:03:17.037
- I guess you guys are coexisting peacefully, he said, at least until November, huh? There hasn't been

00:03:17.037 --> 00:03:24.055
- a Democrat in the State House for a long time. Twenty years. Twenty years. I imagine you have a pretty

00:03:24.055 --> 00:03:25.758
- good feeling about that.

00:03:25.890 --> 00:03:42.118
- It's a 30 gallon kettle and we start out with 30 gallon of cider and boil it down to about 15 gallon

00:03:42.118 --> 00:03:55.614
- and then we put 15 gallon of apple sauce in that and boil it down again about half.

00:03:55.810 --> 00:04:03.670
- So we end up with approximately 12 to 15 gallon of apple butter. This is great. So how long has your

00:04:03.670 --> 00:04:11.685
- family been making this? We started just four years ago. Four years ago. So this kettle is heating the

00:04:11.685 --> 00:04:16.510
- mixture and what does the churning do? Keeps it from burning.

00:04:16.738 --> 00:04:23.248
- Just like when you cook anything, you don't want it to burn. So this is what does it. It's a copper

00:04:23.248 --> 00:04:29.954
- kettle. And once it burns in the copper kettle, then you have to dump it out and start all over again.

00:04:29.954 --> 00:04:36.659
- That's happened to you before? No. It hasn't happened yet. Not yet. So then you can can this and store

00:04:36.659 --> 00:04:43.365
- it for a while. Right. Do you ever find yourself with too much apple butter? No, we never have enough.

00:04:43.365 --> 00:04:44.862
- You never have enough.

00:04:45.346 --> 00:04:52.640
- Last year, we didn't have any for ourselves. We sold it on, so we cooked us a batch at home. They always

00:04:52.640 --> 00:04:59.796
- say the butcher's dog is the one who starves. That's a good example. 1 Peter 5 and 8 says, to be sober

00:04:59.796 --> 00:05:06.812
- and to be vigilant, for your adversary the devil is walking about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he

00:05:06.812 --> 00:05:07.646
- may devour.

00:05:08.226 --> 00:05:14.432
- by listening to a lot of this music over and over and over again, and then little by little, because

00:05:14.432 --> 00:05:19.102
- that's how it ever even happened to me, then I started into the drug scene.

00:05:19.266 --> 00:05:27.861
- you're no longer sober, and you're no longer vigilant, and even in alcohol, and you believe. I mean,

00:05:27.861 --> 00:05:36.542
- you actually believe in the country. They're superheroes today. John Baker has been an evangelist for

00:05:36.542 --> 00:05:44.286
- the last seven years, and I've been in jail and prison evangelism for the last five years.

00:05:44.834 --> 00:05:51.899
- long before I ever gave my heart to God. I played in rock and roll bands and I've always been musically

00:05:51.899 --> 00:05:58.692
- minded. I write songs and I've made five recordings myself. But we see the change in America and we

00:05:58.692 --> 00:06:05.417
- believe that it all starts right here in rock music. How long have you lived here? About 12 years.

00:06:05.417 --> 00:06:08.542
- 12 years, huh? Where are you from originally?

00:06:08.930 --> 00:06:15.318
- Detroit, Michigan? Yeah. So you moved from a pretty big city to a small town. How did that come about?

00:06:15.318 --> 00:06:21.706
- Well, I just moved. How do you think you moved? Well, a lot of people like to stay in a large city all

00:06:21.706 --> 00:06:27.971
- their lives, but you moved from a... Oh, I was in larger cities than that before. Yeah, I was in New

00:06:27.971 --> 00:06:32.126
- York. New York City? You lived in New York City for a while? Yeah.

00:06:32.962 --> 00:06:39.926
- I liked it there. So after all that traveling, all that moving around, you finally come to Ellisville,

00:06:39.926 --> 00:06:47.026
- Indiana. How did you get here? How did you come to choose Ellisville as a place to live? I didn't choose

00:06:47.026 --> 00:06:54.328
- it. I come here, that's all. You just came here, huh? Yeah, I was going to go ahead and go to Indianapolis,

00:06:54.328 --> 00:07:01.630
- which is a big city, and I said that's too big for nobody because nobody that's anybody is in Indianapolis.

00:07:01.826 --> 00:07:07.791
- And so I said, the best thing to do is get out of there and look for something nicer and smaller. So

00:07:07.791 --> 00:07:13.755
- I came to Bloomington. And then they found out that there's a lot of homes here for sales, so I come

00:07:13.755 --> 00:07:19.720
- up here. And that's how I'm here. Well, that's great. What did you do when you were in Detroit? What

00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:25.803
- was your occupation? Oh, investigator. You were a private investigator? Not a private investigator for

00:07:25.803 --> 00:07:27.102
- an insurance company.

00:07:27.746 --> 00:07:34.882
- That's good. That's interesting work. So it took you all over the country then? It did. It took me all

00:07:34.882 --> 00:07:41.880
- over. So you've traveled around a lot and seen a lot of the country and traveled around the world in

00:07:41.880 --> 00:07:48.878
- different places. How would you rate Allittsville as a place to live compared to other places you've

00:07:48.878 --> 00:07:56.222
- lived in your life? I would compare, this stands out in comparison as far as any other city is concerned.

00:07:56.674 --> 00:08:02.842
- Because all cities are the same as this, but this has only got one feature here that the other cities

00:08:02.842 --> 00:08:09.009
- haven't. Here, they don't want to grow. Here, they don't want to expand. Here, when you talk to older

00:08:09.009 --> 00:08:15.116
- people, they say, oh, we like it just the way it is. You see what I mean? So you don't have to worry

00:08:15.116 --> 00:08:21.224
- about it, because if the council has anything in mind, the people here kill it. You see what I mean?

00:08:21.224 --> 00:08:24.126
- So you're in good hands when you're right here.

00:08:24.290 --> 00:08:30.464
- Or in the other cities, if you go to, like I've been in smaller towns, too. Now, I was up in Adrian,

00:08:30.464 --> 00:08:36.576
- Michigan, which is a good-sized town, but it has a couple of factories there. And people like to be

00:08:36.576 --> 00:08:42.933
- where there's factories so they can go to work. Right. People here don't like factories because there's

00:08:42.933 --> 00:08:49.107
- no work. Here, they like to fool around, take it easy, and watch for storms or rain or anything like

00:08:49.107 --> 00:08:53.630
- that. And turn around and say, oh, hopefully we don't get a thunderstorm.

00:08:54.050 --> 00:09:01.396
- They'll go about their business afterwards. I'm on the air. Oh, hello, everybody. Hello. Thanks for

00:09:01.396 --> 00:09:08.816
- talking to us. Martha Parks Jumay. And Martha, you worked for, what did you say, 27 years at the New

00:09:08.816 --> 00:09:16.309
- Mode shop? Oh, about 30 years I worked. 30 years at New Mode, which is beyond Square and Bloomington.

00:09:16.309 --> 00:09:21.598
- And you used to do the teens and the pre-teens. 7 to 14, the pre-teens.

00:09:22.146 --> 00:09:30.304
- And after finishing that career, you went on to bake pies. I baked pies for 60 years. 60 years, huh?

00:09:30.304 --> 00:09:38.380
- Actually, I should, while Jeff is shooting Martha here... Don't shoot me, yeah. When you came in, I

00:09:38.380 --> 00:09:46.619
- wondered if... It's only a technical term, Martha. Don't worry. We're going to treat you really nice.

00:09:46.619 --> 00:09:48.638
- This is an extraordinary

00:09:48.802 --> 00:09:56.197
- coconut cream pie that was made from scratch. It was. Okay, Martha, first question is, where did you

00:09:56.197 --> 00:10:03.593
- get the recipe? Nobody passed it on to you? No, no, I watched Mother make them. You watched Mom make

00:10:03.593 --> 00:10:11.061
- them? I just put it in. Was this your mom's specialty? No. She used to bake all the time? Everything.

00:10:11.061 --> 00:10:14.942
- Everything was my mother's specialty. Sunday dinner.

00:10:15.650 --> 00:10:25.033
- I'm sure it doesn't apply to the women at this table, but there aren't many women who can really put

00:10:25.033 --> 00:10:34.415
- on a good Sunday spread anymore. Maybe eating with the last three women in the United States who can

00:10:34.415 --> 00:10:42.590
- do it. Make sure you get this on film, Jeff. Is this your favorite type of pie to bake?

00:10:42.786 --> 00:10:49.821
- Okay, what's your favorite? Chocolate. Chocolate pie? Dorothy was making the chocolate when I got here.

00:10:49.821 --> 00:10:56.856
- Gosh, this is good. So she said Martha makes some coconut pies and some pumpkin and pumpkin is my least

00:10:56.856 --> 00:11:03.621
- favorite pie of anything. The truth is that you got up at 4.30 in the morning? No, I got here about

00:11:03.621 --> 00:11:10.588
- 6.30. 6.30, you got to sleep late. And ordinarily I sleep about 9.30 again. So do I. That was good for

00:11:10.588 --> 00:11:11.806
- her this morning.

00:11:12.226 --> 00:11:18.445
- Well, I couldn't believe that I could get up. But there were a lot of women you said here that were

00:11:18.445 --> 00:11:24.725
- here? Oh, sure. They were here when I got here. Before the sun was up. They were already baking when

00:11:24.725 --> 00:11:31.069
- I got here. They were baking up here in this little kitchen over here. I'll just shoot later. We just

00:11:31.069 --> 00:11:36.914
- had two stoves. Two stoves. And out of that, you baked how many pies this morning? Let's see.

00:11:36.914 --> 00:11:40.894
- There was 31. There were 35. 37 pies. Two compers. Two compers.

00:11:41.666 --> 00:11:49.820
- Well, maybe we'll get maybe one other person and I'll lock myself up here with the 37 pies and see what

00:11:49.820 --> 00:11:57.974
- I can do. Would you like to have a piece of that pie? That's a good idea. This will do wonders for you,

00:11:57.974 --> 00:12:06.206
- wonders for you. This is marvelous, marvelous pie. So, you've never bought pie from a store? No, not me.

00:12:06.562 --> 00:12:14.167
- You can tell the difference blindfolded, right? Yes, our cake either. I don't buy boxes of anything.

00:12:14.167 --> 00:12:21.923
- If I'm going to cook it, I cook it. You would have served, what, Vietnam? Well, no, I was in the zone.

00:12:21.923 --> 00:12:29.528
- I just happened to be in Cuba. In Cuba? Yeah, in Cuba during the Bay of Pigs, sorry to say, and also

00:12:29.528 --> 00:12:31.486
- the Cuban Missile Crisis.

00:12:32.354 --> 00:12:43.062
- We were at Guantanamo? Yes sir. And this was in 1962? 1962. That was a pretty interesting time. We were

00:12:43.062 --> 00:12:53.770
- very close to war. President Kennedy and Mr. Khrushchev. It was sort of a trying time for us down there

00:12:53.770 --> 00:13:02.110
- too because we didn't radio silence and we really didn't know what was happening

00:13:02.530 --> 00:13:10.240
- We didn't know anything about it until we got back to the States at the time. You were in the U.S. Navy?

00:13:10.240 --> 00:13:17.803
- Yes, sir. We brought back all the dependents from Guantanamo Bay at the time. We brought the women and

00:13:17.803 --> 00:13:25.366
- children back from down there. It was getting ready for war is what it was at the time. That's the way

00:13:25.366 --> 00:13:27.422
- that they had looked at it.

00:13:27.682 --> 00:13:36.459
- So tell us a little bit about the Bay of Pigs invasion. Now, that was an operation by a group of Cuban

00:13:36.459 --> 00:13:45.662
- nationals that were based in Florida. And with some help, I guess, from the U.S. military, mostly strategic

00:13:45.662 --> 00:13:53.246
- help and transport help, they made a landing, I guess. Right, they did make the landing.

00:13:54.018 --> 00:14:04.134
- We were set offshore, but we were told that we wouldn't be involved. Alls we were was sort of a delivery

00:14:04.134 --> 00:14:14.250
- service for the Cuban nationals, is what it was. We delivered approximately about 15,000 Cuban nationals

00:14:14.250 --> 00:14:19.742
- on the shore. Some of them made it, some of them didn't.

00:14:20.706 --> 00:14:28.560
- It was a pretty sad scene. You waited offshore. Could you see the hostilities going on? We couldn't.

00:14:28.560 --> 00:14:36.570
- We couldn't. We set off 10 miles off. Our guns could have reached it. We set just far enough off where

00:14:36.570 --> 00:14:44.735
- the guns of the ship could reach it, but we didn't. We were told that we wouldn't fire. The guns weren't

00:14:44.735 --> 00:14:49.790
- even ready to fire, so we were just there as a delivery service.

00:14:50.178 --> 00:14:59.306
- When the hostilities and the action was over at the Bay of Pigs, you basically served as medical? Right,

00:14:59.306 --> 00:15:08.173
- and then we started evacuations then. We brought back probably two-thirds of what we took over there.

00:15:08.173 --> 00:15:17.822
- Most of them didn't even hit the beach. Most of them were taken prisoner before, just as they'd come on shore.

00:15:18.082 --> 00:15:25.575
- You might have been worried at the time that you would have been even indirectly involved in it. Right.

00:15:25.575 --> 00:15:33.141
- Just by being in the vicinity. Right. That was the whole thing. We were afraid that if we were attacked,

00:15:33.141 --> 00:15:40.562
- we didn't know at the time whether we would fight back or not even. It was sort of a sticky situation,

00:15:40.562 --> 00:15:45.822
- really. It was not very well thought out. It was something that was just

00:15:46.434 --> 00:16:13.438
- You know, there's no telling where the ideas on riding on air eventually end up.

00:16:13.858 --> 00:16:20.955
- I know this is a limited access station, but hey, I'm sure you've all heard the story of the Hindenburg

00:16:20.955 --> 00:16:27.779
- broadcast that was trapped inside that radio, purchased in an Omaha garage sale in 1973. No telling

00:16:27.779 --> 00:16:35.012
- where these waves journey to. Like, for instance, to the household of the Hodskins. Someone named Hodskin

00:16:35.012 --> 00:16:41.904
- is responsible for drawing the Henry comic strip, Behold the Herald Telephone, Monday, September 19,

00:16:41.904 --> 00:16:43.678
- 1988. In the first frame,

00:16:44.002 --> 00:16:52.028
- Henry's walking down the street past Ralph's Cajun restaurant. In the window is a sign that says, try

00:16:52.028 --> 00:17:00.053
- our blackened fish. Henry goes home, and in the third frame, he sees a toaster ejecting two pieces of

00:17:00.053 --> 00:17:08.000
- burnt toast. In the final frame, Henry has a booth outside of his house where he's selling pieces of

00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:11.934
- Henry's Cajun toast. Truth stranger than fiction.

00:17:12.642 --> 00:17:21.650
- five episodes back, as I remember. Ah. Ooh. A beautiful example of Cajun toast, burned and hot, ready

00:17:21.650 --> 00:17:30.835
- for butter, and of course, ready for our crew. As in most good cooking programs, I always like to share

00:17:30.835 --> 00:17:40.638
- the final results with the camera crew. Jennifer, bring the butter. Time to chow down. Well, I'll be generous.

00:17:40.962 --> 00:17:48.872
- We'll call it square. After all, Henry's given me some big laughs over the years. Very few as big as

00:17:48.872 --> 00:17:56.860
- this one, though. If this were 35 years ago, and you were a 13-year-old Catholic paperboy in suburban

00:17:56.860 --> 00:18:05.162
- Cleveland, this is what you'd want to see under the tree, a 1952 Columbia Deluxe. Now, are you absolutely

00:18:05.162 --> 00:18:10.174
- sure you're going to get anything this beautiful for Christmas?

00:18:15.586 --> 00:18:23.942
- Hey, he taught John Wayne everything he knew. Sexist? His films probably ruined more women's lives than

00:18:23.942 --> 00:18:32.297
- Donna Reed. But simplistic. Watch out. John Ford was Katharine Hepburn's lover. He spoke five languages

00:18:32.297 --> 00:18:40.894
- fluently. If I can forgive Ray Charles for singing at the White House, do you think? It must be Christmas.

00:21:20.386 --> 00:21:40.926
- this quarter to be me. Wake up. Come here boy. What's your name? I'm Dexter. Who gave you that? Mr.

00:22:10.882 --> 00:22:12.094
- with reflection.

00:23:04.002 --> 00:23:11.238
- of our path by eating up all the fat hens in the whole bunch and leaving us nothing but a lot of old

00:23:11.238 --> 00:23:15.966
- skinny Dominic roosters. You remember, boys? Come to think of it,

00:23:37.378 --> 00:23:44.441
- I don't get on your high horse that way, you know, we ain't in a great big hurry, but, uh, interesting

00:23:44.441 --> 00:23:51.504
- about her, what are you, what are you charged with at most? Nothing good, but I wasn't mad I'm chicken

00:23:51.504 --> 00:23:55.550
- shawarma, I'm just fishing. Fishing? Why were you fishing?

00:24:16.674 --> 00:24:22.181
- Come here, what do you use for bait? Oh, I've got a hunk of beef liver. Beef liver? Yeah, I have to

00:24:22.181 --> 00:24:27.908
- take the beef liver and put it on the hook and chuck it out there, let them out of the place, feed them

00:24:27.908 --> 00:24:33.580
- nothing, feed them, then you put some more on that and chuck it out there, and then they think they're

00:24:33.580 --> 00:24:39.197
- gonna get that for nothing and you're just, you're catching them long as you got some liver. And I've

00:24:39.197 --> 00:24:42.942
- been out there all the time, I don't care nothing about that liver.

00:25:02.530 --> 00:25:18.131
- his clothes got to take them in the house. Yes, Lord, got to get out that old ironing board, fix them

00:25:18.131 --> 00:25:27.614
- up for the jets to wear. Yes, Lord, that's what I want to do.

00:25:43.106 --> 00:25:50.462
- What do you mean he's been feeding you? What have we got for supper?

00:26:19.810 --> 00:26:25.670
- With a diploma, you're now looking at a full-fledged member of the bar. Let me look at you.

00:26:25.670 --> 00:26:32.486
- Hmm. Full-fledged, my gizzard. Yeah, I know you. You know, you better get your britches half-sold, because

00:26:32.486 --> 00:26:39.237
- you're going to sit around a long dive before you get your first client. Well, I don't mind, Uncle Billy.

00:26:39.237 --> 00:26:45.926
- You know what happened to me before I got my first client, don't you? Lord, I sat through two Republican

00:26:45.926 --> 00:26:47.518
- administrations before I

00:26:54.434 --> 00:27:02.145
- a plan. Just doing a little practice in here for the championship. I got Jeff here, he's doing the retrieving

- down there, will you Jeff? Two? I'm going to show you what had happened to Jimmy Bagby now. I just want

00:27:16.444 --> 00:27:17.566
- to show you how

- Oh, that's fine. Just take your button shoes with you and just step that off and see just how full it is.

- You know why. Well, I know, is it? You've changed since I went away. Well, that isn't it, Rome. It's...

00:28:40.928 --> 00:28:48.366
- It's just that we've grown up. You mean you don't like me anymore? Oh, Rome. Well, if my mother or anybody

00:28:48.366 --> 00:28:54.832
- has said anything... Oh, Ellie May, I mean... Well, I'm old enough to choose my own friends.

00:28:54.832 --> 00:29:02.270
- Please let me go. We've got to get this thing settled once and for all. I've got to go in, really, I have.

00:29:03.106 --> 00:29:10.844
- I'm coming back tonight and find out what it's all about. You can. I have an engagement. Who with? Fleming

00:29:10.844 --> 00:29:18.147
- Talley. Well, how about tomorrow night? Wrong. It's no use. All right. That's the way you feel about

00:29:18.147 --> 00:29:25.378

00:29:25.378 --> 00:29:31.742
- really need no more practice for them old men. Besides, that exertion calls for a duel.

- Wait for him unless young folks has changed since I was skirmishing around He won't be back for quite

00:29:55.946 --> 00:30:02.558
- Oh my lord, did you got any sentiment? Did you got no girl?

00:30:02.786 --> 00:30:07.052
- Jim would never love to stand around here talking about a goat or something. But you're mint. What about

00:30:07.052 --> 00:30:11.156
- my mint? The goat in your mint bed. In my mint bed? What is it? The goat. The goat. Actin' like you.

- julep. You and your precious mint julep. A circuit court judge. Where's your dignity? Dignity? I don't

00:30:47.485 --> 00:30:53.945
- reckon the priest family will ever have to worry about dignity, Carrie, not as long as you're alive

00:30:53.945 --> 00:30:57.886
- and kicking. Well, it's a good thing somebody in this family

00:31:02.530 --> 00:31:09.417
- you that he saved the family name. He wouldn't be fooling around the front yard with a ghost. That's

00:31:09.417 --> 00:31:16.305
- not what I came for. Have you seen Rome? Rome? Rome? Oh, it appears like I did see that son of yours

00:31:16.305 --> 00:31:23.397
- around here a while ago. I expect he's downtown now, you know, strutting around, showing off his button

00:31:23.397 --> 00:31:29.534
- shoes. Now don't you play possum with me, as if I didn't know you'd been encouraging that

00:31:36.770 --> 00:31:44.228
- If you had the biggest heart of any woman in the world, I'd think you're the most suspicious creature

00:31:44.228 --> 00:31:51.614
- that ever come down to fight. Never mind that. You come up on the porch. I want to talk to you. If I

00:31:51.614 --> 00:31:58.926
- didn't know that's the way you felt about it, I wouldn't have hurried home so fast. I'm sorry, Ron.

00:31:58.926 --> 00:32:06.238
- After all you had your career, your family, everything in the world that matters to you right here.

00:32:06.658 --> 00:32:15.993
- I don't think you care what matters to me. I'm not a woman to beat about the bush. This business of

00:32:15.993 --> 00:32:25.794
- Rome and that girl next door have got to stop. What have you got against early May? She's an awful sweet

00:32:25.794 --> 00:32:36.062
- girl, it seems to me. She's got gumption and she teaches coo and supports herself. I don't want to be unkind.

00:32:43.874 --> 00:32:52.945
- in Kentucky. Well, I've never heard that it meant intolerance. It means good stock and family pride.

00:32:52.945 --> 00:33:02.195
- Do you know the kind of stock she comes from? Yeah. Her ma come to this town penniless and died giving

00:33:02.195 --> 00:33:11.176
- birth to Ellie Mae. I remember the night. She was afraid little woman. Wasn't any bigger than Ellie

00:33:11.176 --> 00:33:12.254
- Mae is now.

00:33:13.794 --> 00:33:21.489
- Mr. Sporty. But who was her father? Well, nobody don't rightfully know. A family may not mean anything

00:33:21.489 --> 00:33:29.334
- to you, but it means a whole lot to me. I'm not going to have my grandchildren coming to the world under

00:33:29.334 --> 00:33:37.104
- a cloud. You haven't by any chance picked Hard Maydo as a grandpappy, have you? Oh, I know you've never

00:33:37.104 --> 00:33:42.110
- liked Senator Maydo, but you can't say anything against his folks.

00:33:45.538 --> 00:33:52.872
- Virginia's a lovely girl. She's always been crazy about Rome. He could do a lot worse. Well, I guess

00:33:52.872 --> 00:34:00.206
- me and Rome, we ain't got anything to say about it. I knew you'd come around to my way. You're going

00:34:00.206 --> 00:34:07.685
- to stay for supper, are you, Carrie? Not tonight, thank you, William. The daughters of the Confederacy

00:34:07.685 --> 00:34:12.478
- are having a chicken supper at Cape Maydew, and I'm late already.

00:34:13.058 --> 00:34:20.572
- Looks like you daughters get more ferocious every year towards Yankees and fried chicken. You got your

00:34:20.572 --> 00:34:27.868
- badge on there. Mighty pretty. Good night, William. Sometimes I think you women got more badges and

00:34:27.868 --> 00:34:30.494
- medals out over the soldiers' beds.

00:34:56.834 --> 00:35:07.030
- for nobody, either man or bird lived by themselves. Uncle Billy, why didn't you come and live with us

00:35:07.030 --> 00:35:17.225
- after Aunt Margaret died? Oh, well, I never could stand him old cookin'. Oh, fine sling over there on

00:35:17.225 --> 00:35:24.222
- that other pole. I wouldn't be surprised if that ain't a pretty girl.

00:35:27.458 --> 00:35:38.780
- another fella tonight. Yeah, he may show his pudding. Well, it gets hurled. Certainly have to do some

00:35:38.780 --> 00:35:49.546
- prancing. He can't sit around and look glum all the time. There he is now. Who? That flim tally.

00:35:49.546 --> 00:35:54.430
- The barber? Yeah. He was awful full-shaded.

00:36:28.962 --> 00:36:36.769
- Now, there ain't nothing to get your mind off women folks like work. Well, you run back in my library

00:36:36.769 --> 00:36:44.423
- there and get my old Kentucky code of statute. It's an old calfskin book up on the top shelf there.

00:36:44.423 --> 00:36:51.006
- It gets me. That's brand, man. Long years. I'm just going to see if I can't stop him.

00:37:06.722 --> 00:37:14.014
- I can have all the fun I want right here at home. Now guess who I was talking about?

00:37:38.594 --> 00:38:04.702
- Yeah. You. Know what you'd be doing around here. But. What are you talking about who's there. To.

00:38:22.210 --> 00:38:33.093
- He doesn't shoot him, that's all. There ain't a thing that I can do about it. My job don't stop until

00:38:33.093 --> 00:38:43.976
- they've got him all laid out in the mall. Full of buckshot, cold and dead, and ready for burial. Then

00:38:43.976 --> 00:38:45.470
- I stepped in.

00:39:27.042 --> 00:39:34.290
- Oh, maybe I didn't have one. Kelly Mae's waiting for you over there. What? How do you know?

00:39:34.290 --> 00:39:42.326
- Are you sure? Now, don't be standing here like a Jaybird gawking when I tell you she's waiting. Go on

00:39:42.326 --> 00:39:43.902
- out of here and go.

01:12:22.402 --> 01:12:35.493
- I found out I couldn't lick the whole United States. I come back here to my hometown and I put up my

01:12:35.493 --> 01:12:48.715
- shingles. It wasn't long before I was sitting on that bench. Maybe I did have a hanker for the spirit

01:12:48.715 --> 01:12:50.270
- of the law.

01:12:57.410 --> 01:13:13.965
- As far as I know, nobody ever found cause to complain till now. Now you, you jury, you forget everything

01:13:13.965 --> 01:13:25.790
- that I've said. And my feelings has no place in the records of this trial.

01:13:28.482 --> 01:13:45.095
- You will excuse me either side has any objection. I'd like to ask the Honorable Floyd Fairley. If he

01:13:45.095 --> 01:13:54.142
- won't come up here and take. Take him up on the bench.

01:16:07.618 --> 01:16:17.048
- But once you three all armed with billiard cues... Well, never heard of nobody playing pool without

01:16:17.048 --> 01:16:27.422
- them. It's just like Flam and Joe said. He come in looking for trouble. You don't like the defendant, do you?

01:16:39.394 --> 01:16:40.222
- of the witness.

01:17:52.834 --> 01:18:02.418
- give you the limit when you've got to tell the truth. Don't you see you don't. Tell them anything.

01:18:02.418 --> 01:18:12.776
- Yes I. Lied all the way through. They lied to it was three against one billy gainers by room three against

01:18:12.776 --> 01:18:15.390
- one of the fear courtroom.

01:20:04.642 --> 01:20:15.803
- Kind of caught me red-handed there. Could I, you know, kind of in vagal, been a long tiresome day and

01:20:15.803 --> 01:20:26.855
- it's mostly me. No, thank you, William. I appreciate your sympathy. You know, I kind of thought that

01:20:26.855 --> 01:20:31.998
- you'd be working on your Memorial Day address.

01:20:34.978 --> 01:20:44.323
- of itself. What I'm worried about is this poor devil of a gillis. You know gillis? My trade takes me

01:20:44.323 --> 01:20:53.575
- into queer quarters sometimes. I feel just as sorry for that fellow gillis as you do. I'm plumb out

01:20:53.575 --> 01:21:04.030
- of it then. Hod got the best of me and sure did. The case is closed and it's all settled. I don't think Hod will

01:21:04.322 --> 01:21:14.005
- He'd be fool enough to reopen the case for nobody or nothing. William, I have a duty to perform. The

01:21:14.005 --> 01:21:23.687
- Christian's duty. I'm going to violate the sacred confidence of another. I'm going to break a pledge

01:21:23.687 --> 01:21:30.590
- of secrecy because it's the only course that I see that lies before me.

01:21:33.442 --> 01:21:47.765
- Mr. Nasty. Twenty five years ago. The judges show him. Misery. Reckonful things been acting just right.

01:21:47.765 --> 01:21:57.406
- Maybe his stomach's been complaining and he needs a party this night.

01:23:03.330 --> 01:23:09.885
- Let him know how he got there. That's all I got to do. Wait a minute. Can you play Dixie on that thing

01:23:09.885 --> 01:23:16.439
- there? I couldn't cause. I played Dixie with marching through Georgia. Marching through Georgia. I got

01:23:16.439 --> 01:23:23.248
- you out of one lynching. I couldn't cause. I thought I was going to get through Georgia. If you're playing

01:23:23.248 --> 01:23:26.430
- marching through Georgia, I'll join the lynching.

01:25:39.234 --> 01:25:49.875
- For the time being, I'm an ordinary member of the bar. In good standing? Not ordinary, sir, but absolutely

01:25:49.875 --> 01:26:00.616
- in good standing. Thank you, sir. Thank you kindly. Then I have the honor of announcing myself as Associate

01:26:00.616 --> 01:26:03.102
- Counsel for the Defense.

01:26:09.090 --> 01:26:20.162
- has been reopened. Mr. Gillis, were you always a man of turbulent and violent nature? I always left

01:26:20.162 --> 01:26:32.119
- them alone, I always left me alone. Is that so? What was the name of the man you once upon a time murdered?

01:26:32.119 --> 01:26:38.430
- I never looked on it, there's no, no it wasn't murdered.

01:26:49.922 --> 01:27:06.464
- a life. I won't tell you no matter what you ask me you don't need to. Judge priest. No questions your

01:27:06.464 --> 01:27:08.734
- honor. Billy.

01:27:29.218 --> 01:27:37.939
- I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, not the whole truth, and take down plenty of his court.

01:27:37.939 --> 01:27:47.182
- I do. Reverend Brand, before you come to this town, what was your occupation? In my early manhood, before

01:27:47.182 --> 01:27:55.903
- I took holy orders, I had the honor to be a captain of artillery in the late war. In the war of the

01:27:55.903 --> 01:27:56.862
- rebellion?

01:27:59.746 --> 01:28:05.054
- the seven confederates. That's right.

01:28:33.314 --> 01:28:42.302
- of that great conflict must awaken every true Kentuckian's bosom. I fail to see any possible connection

01:29:30.754 --> 01:29:40.162
- As many of you know, I am a Virginian. On the day my state seceded from the Union, I enlisted. I was

01:29:40.162 --> 01:29:49.476
- a private in Penn's Virginia Battery. By the latter end of the third year, I was in command of that

01:29:49.476 --> 01:29:59.070
- battery. All the officers ranking me had been killed or disabled. We lost heavily at Chancellorsville.

01:30:00.546 --> 01:30:10.032
- In Fredericksburg, we were almost wiped out. We kept our field pieces. We kept our pieces until the

01:30:10.032 --> 01:30:19.707
- end. But we had not sufficient men to man those guns. No anywhere to turn for more men. There were no

01:30:19.707 --> 01:30:30.046
- more men left to come in. The Confederacy in 64 was robbing both the cradle and the grave for cannon fodder.

01:30:31.362 --> 01:30:40.980
- I got temporary leave and went to Richmond to see our war governor. I said to him, sir, I've come to

01:30:40.980 --> 01:30:50.694
- you to ask for men to serve my guns. He laughed and said, tell me where they are to be found. I said,

01:30:50.694 --> 01:30:59.550
- among the chain gangs from the state penitentiary. He said, you've come too late, young man.

01:31:00.642 --> 01:31:09.411
- freed every convict that might conceivably be trusted with freedom. They are left only delightless,

01:31:09.411 --> 01:31:18.706
- and I dare not turn them loose. They are working on the guard, building defenses for you to fight behind.

01:31:18.706 --> 01:31:27.474
- He opposed me, but I argued with him. Finally, I won. He gave me authorization, signed it, and with

01:31:27.474 --> 01:31:28.702
- his own hand,

01:31:31.042 --> 01:31:40.175
- of the sovereign state of Virginia. I rode back to the line, sir, and I found my chain gang. I told

01:31:40.175 --> 01:31:49.490
- them to drop their tools and line up before me. I told them, if you go with me, you go to face a hell

01:31:49.490 --> 01:31:55.518
- of destruction and suffering and death. But I said, if you do go,

01:32:05.922 --> 01:32:15.574
- The future, if you survive, is in your own hands. And I promise you this much, if you stand fast, if

01:32:15.574 --> 01:32:25.703
- you do your duty, if bravely and honorably you acquit yourselves as men, then such of you as live through

01:32:25.703 --> 01:32:34.590
- to the end, and some of you will live, are not to come back to this. It's for you to decide.

01:32:53.410 --> 01:33:03.230
- see every one of them. And as time went on, they won for themselves the name of the battalion

01:34:11.522 --> 01:34:13.278
- you're in the back

01:39:02.530 --> 01:39:10.659
- away from the Monroe County Fall Festival. A pretty piece of rope, a jar of homemade apple butter, a

01:39:10.659 --> 01:39:18.708
- sturdy loaf of bread, and a wonderful piece of homemade pie from the Rebeccas. Hey, they could have

01:39:18.708 --> 01:39:27.401
- hung me with a full stomach and a smile on my face. Till next week, walk slow, breathe deep, treat yourself

01:39:27.401 --> 01:39:28.286
- real good.
