Mrs. Taylor: Why, when I was your age, I drove an ox team a thousand miles from Council Bluffs. I shot Comanches with my father lying dead across my knees.
Molly Wood: My family built a country too. They worked and died just as bravely as you Westerners. Indians! Do you think you're the only ones that fought Indians? Did you ever hear of the Cherry Valley Massacre? My grandfather was killed in that, and my grandmother went 90 miles on foot to get help.
Mrs. Taylor: And you're proud of them.
Molly Wood: Of course I'm proud of them.
Mrs. Taylor: It's too bad you're not more like them
