On a desolate American farm in the early 1900's, a farmer is found murdered in his sleep and his wife is jailed as the prime suspect. A powerful adaptation of the 1917 Susan Glaspell short story of the same name, based on her play "Trifles", A JURY OF HER PEERS presents a riveting tale of revenge, justice and women’s shared experience. Equally relevant in women’s studies courses and for use with organizations battling violence against women, this riveting feminist classic probes the notion of women’s victimization and justifiable homicide and opens the possibility for the creation of an alternate, feminist justice and judgment. Two women, a neighbor and the sheriff’s wife, find themselves in the accused woman’s kitchen while the prosecuting attorney and their husbands search the farm for motive for the crime. As the camera lingers on small details in the kitchen – spilled sugar, a broken chair, crooked stitches in a quilt piece – the motive becomes clear as the suspect’s isolated life of physical and emotional abuse is revealed. As each new clue further incriminates the accused, the women must decide whether to reveal the evidence against her and become, in effect, a jury of her peers.
“Simple, powerful, jolting.”
The New York Times
“Brilliant and compelling little masterpiece.”
David Robinson, The London Times
“A gripping short drama that lays open some of the most basic differences between men's and women's lives, and the potential bearing of these differences on legal norms. A genuine classic.”
Katharine T. Bartlett, Professor, Duke University School of Law
“How wonderful that A Jury of Her Peers is again available…for provoking critical thought about gender and social institutions, as well as for exploring notions of women's voice, feminist perspective, and collective identity. …From introduction to women's studies to feminist research methods, it never fails to get my students thinking in new ways about women, history, and justice.”
Andrea Friedman, Hist. & Women's Studies, Washington University

00:00:57.411 --> 00:01:01.932
00:01:01.932 --> 00:01:02.794
out here on the
00:01:02.794 --> 00:01:04.760
(indistinct)
00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:07.300
But he said folks talk too much anyway.
00:01:07.300 --> 00:01:09.503
They don\'t need a telephone.
00:01:11.101 --> 00:01:14.203
I thought maybe if I ask him in front of his wife,
00:01:15.800 --> 00:01:19.697
tell him how much womenfolk like any telephone.
00:01:19.697 --> 00:01:20.656
Whoa.
00:01:20.656 --> 00:01:23.440
\'Cause I don\'t know it\'s what his wife wanted.
00:01:23.440 --> 00:01:25.840
They haven\'t made much difference to John Burke.
00:01:37.215 --> 00:01:40.048

00:01:54.951 --> 00:01:57.343
00:01:58.780 --> 00:02:00.083
It\'s cold, ain\'t it?
00:02:03.335 --> 00:02:04.285
I want to see John.
00:02:09.290 --> 00:02:10.363
Can I see John?
00:02:12.430 --> 00:02:13.330
00:02:14.870 --> 00:02:16.253
00:02:17.440 --> 00:02:19.363

00:02:26.540 --> 00:02:27.373
00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:33.533
What did he die of?
00:02:35.260 --> 00:02:37.993
00:02:42.390 --> 00:02:43.223

00:03:15.020 --> 00:03:16.197
He\'s strangled.

00:03:21.570 --> 00:03:23.770

00:03:34.420 --> 00:03:35.899
00:03:35.899 --> 00:03:37.250
and strangled him.
00:03:37.250 --> 00:03:38.363
Didn\'t you wake up?
00:03:40.860 --> 00:03:42.630
00:03:42.630 --> 00:03:44.680
I sleep sound.

00:03:46.630 --> 00:03:48.530
00:03:48.530 --> 00:03:50.463
to the coroner or the sheriff.
00:03:51.590 --> 00:03:54.293
You go over to River\'s where they got a telephone.

(bird screeches)
00:05:15.837 --> 00:05:17.147
00:05:17.147 --> 00:05:18.833
I want to get your story first.
00:05:20.050 --> 00:05:22.780
I want to ask your wife a few questions, too.
00:05:22.780 --> 00:05:24.530
00:05:28.580 --> 00:05:30.840
00:05:30.840 --> 00:05:32.990
When she asked me to get some things for her
00:05:32.990 --> 00:05:33.823
I wanted to oblige her,
00:05:33.823 --> 00:05:37.249
but I dreaded the thought of coming out here all by myself
00:05:37.249 --> 00:05:38.903
and waiting for the men.
00:05:41.140 --> 00:05:42.340
I\'m glad you could come.
00:05:43.750 --> 00:05:46.513
00:05:47.470 --> 00:05:48.710
And now I can come.
00:05:52.645 --> 00:05:54.955
00:05:54.955 --> 00:05:56.272
00:05:56.272 --> 00:05:57.731
00:05:57.731 --> 00:05:59.183
if they did come upon one?
00:05:59.183 --> 00:06:00.232
00:06:00.232 --> 00:06:03.050
you sent for the sheriff?
00:06:03.050 --> 00:06:06.440
00:06:07.488 --> 00:06:09.193
to this one over here.
00:06:10.580 --> 00:06:13.373
And she just sat there looking down.
00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:21.240
I said that I\'d come to ask John again about the telephone.
00:06:23.890 --> 00:06:25.483
And at that she laughed.
00:06:27.320 --> 00:06:30.963
And she stopped and looked at me scared.
00:06:32.342 --> 00:06:33.433
00:06:35.290 --> 00:06:37.730
00:06:37.730 --> 00:06:39.253
I wouldn\'t like to say it was.
00:06:40.861 --> 00:06:45.450
So Mr. Peters came and that\'s about all I know
00:06:45.450 --> 00:06:47.193
that you don\'t.
00:06:48.207 --> 00:06:49.040
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:49.906
there was nothing important here?
00:06:49.906 --> 00:06:51.906
Nothing that would point to any motives?
00:06:52.970 --> 00:06:55.803
00:07:04.018 --> 00:07:06.435
(loud clang)
00:07:16.339 --> 00:07:17.370
00:07:17.370 --> 00:07:19.838
00:07:19.838 --> 00:07:23.436
She worried about that but it turned cold last night.
00:07:23.436 --> 00:07:26.930
Said the fire would go out and her jars burst.
00:07:26.930 --> 00:07:28.400
00:07:28.400 --> 00:07:31.439
held for murder and worrying about her preserves.
00:07:31.439 --> 00:07:32.342
00:07:32.342 --> 00:07:34.823
more serious than preserves to worry about.
00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:38.593
00:07:40.630 --> 00:07:42.263
00:07:43.230 --> 00:07:45.130
what do we do without the ladies, huh?
00:07:50.770 --> 00:07:53.220
Not much of a house keeper, would you say ladies?
00:07:54.300 --> 00:07:55.280
00:07:55.280 --> 00:07:57.240
to be done on a farm, Mr. Cook.
00:07:57.240 --> 00:07:59.220
00:07:59.220 --> 00:08:02.170
Yet I know there are some Dickson County farmhouses
00:08:03.530 --> 00:08:05.760
that do not have such roller towels.
00:08:05.760 --> 00:08:07.716
00:08:07.716 --> 00:08:10.422
Men\'s hands aren\'t as clean as they might be.
00:08:10.422 --> 00:08:12.483
00:08:14.090 --> 00:08:15.390
Oh, you and Mrs. Burke were neighbors.
00:08:15.390 --> 00:08:16.990
I suppose you were friends, too?
00:08:17.918 --> 00:08:19.963
00:08:21.046 --> 00:08:24.090
Not been in his house since more than a year.
00:08:24.090 --> 00:08:25.860
00:08:25.860 --> 00:08:27.210
00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:31.600
Farmers\' wives have their hands full, Mr. Cook, and that...
00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:33.126
00:08:33.126 --> 00:08:35.600
00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:37.720
00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:39.460
00:08:39.460 --> 00:08:40.878
00:08:40.878 --> 00:08:43.633
00:08:44.510 --> 00:08:46.060
Just that I don\'t think any place
00:08:46.060 --> 00:08:48.760
would be the cheerfuller for John Burke\'s being in it.
00:08:52.353 --> 00:08:53.490
00:08:53.490 --> 00:08:54.790
a little later, Mrs. Hale.
00:08:55.697 --> 00:08:58.197
I\'m anxious to get the lay of things upstairs now.
00:09:02.030 --> 00:09:03.440
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:05.100
will be all right?
00:09:05.100 --> 00:09:06.550
00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:08.870
Oh, ladies, keep an eye out
00:09:08.870 --> 00:09:11.480
for anything that might be of use to us.
00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:12.860
There\'s no telling,
00:09:12.860 --> 00:09:14.800
you women might come up on a clue to the motive
00:09:14.800 --> 00:09:16.250
and that\'s the thing we need.
00:09:23.032 --> 00:09:25.300
(door closes)
00:09:25.300 --> 00:09:26.820
00:09:26.820 --> 00:09:29.320
snooping around and criticizing.
00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:31.903
00:09:34.470 --> 00:09:36.549
00:09:36.549 --> 00:09:39.210
It seems mean to talk about her for not having things
00:09:39.210 --> 00:09:41.860
slicked up when she had to come away in such a hurry.
00:09:52.400 --> 00:09:53.593
Shame about her fruit.
00:09:55.170 --> 00:09:56.403
Wonder if it\'s all gone.
00:10:02.069 --> 00:10:04.700
Here\'s one that\'s all right.
00:10:04.700 --> 00:10:07.093
I declare, I believe it\'s the only one.
00:10:08.870 --> 00:10:10.103
It\'s cherries too.
00:10:12.540 --> 00:10:14.265
She\'d feel awful bad after all her hard work
00:10:14.265 --> 00:10:15.703
in the hot weather.
00:10:31.421 --> 00:10:35.760
00:10:35.760 --> 00:10:38.140
Are you coming with me Mrs. Hale?
00:10:38.140 --> 00:10:39.440
You could help me get \'em.
00:10:43.610 --> 00:10:46.610
(doorknob rattling)
00:10:57.546 --> 00:11:00.296
(birds chirping)
00:11:21.006 --> 00:11:24.006
00:11:26.220 --> 00:11:27.720
I knew her when we were young.
00:11:29.530 --> 00:11:30.880
She\'s an out of town girls.
00:11:31.810 --> 00:11:32.783
Just so pretty.
00:11:34.580 --> 00:11:37.380
I remember she used to sing in the choir.
00:11:37.380 --> 00:11:38.453
Right lively too.
00:11:39.351 --> 00:11:41.463
She had a real sweet voice.
00:11:42.545 --> 00:11:46.210
(bird screeching)
00:11:46.210 --> 00:11:48.553
00:11:49.420 --> 00:11:50.323
00:11:51.480 --> 00:11:52.560
00:11:52.560 --> 00:11:53.883
Let\'s go back to the fire.
00:12:04.610 --> 00:12:05.833
00:12:07.060 --> 00:12:10.093
Wasn\'t poor. Farm did right well.
00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:17.190
I think that\'s why she kept so much to herself.
00:12:18.620 --> 00:12:21.153
Suppose she felt she couldn\'t do her part. And then,
00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:25.593
you don\'t enjoy things when you feel shabby.
00:12:28.230 --> 00:12:29.430
Was this all she wanted?
00:12:31.460 --> 00:12:34.223
00:12:35.420 --> 00:12:37.601
Seems like a funny thing to want.
00:12:37.601 --> 00:12:39.410
Goodness knows there\'s little enough
00:12:39.410 --> 00:12:40.843
to get you dirty in jail.
00:12:42.320 --> 00:12:44.693
She said they were in this chest.
00:12:47.230 --> 00:12:49.560
I suppose if you\'re used to wearing an apron,
00:12:49.560 --> 00:12:51.063
make you feel more natural.
00:12:54.860 --> 00:12:59.843
And her little shawl that always hangs by the stairs.
00:13:01.160 --> 00:13:02.143
00:13:03.660 --> 00:13:04.860
do you think she did it?
00:13:07.880 --> 00:13:08.853
00:13:09.750 --> 00:13:11.250
00:13:11.250 --> 00:13:13.593
Asking for a shawl, worrying about her fruit?
00:13:15.900 --> 00:13:17.403
00:13:21.666 --> 00:13:24.377
Mr. Peters says it looks bad for her.
00:13:26.070 --> 00:13:29.050
Mr. Cook is awful sarcastic in his speech.
00:13:29.050 --> 00:13:31.780
And he\'s going to make fun of her saying she didn\'t wake up.
00:13:31.780 --> 00:13:33.470
00:13:33.470 --> 00:13:36.180
when they were slipping that rope under his neck.
00:13:36.180 --> 00:13:37.013
00:13:38.090 --> 00:13:39.800
Strange.
00:13:39.800 --> 00:13:42.400
They think of it\'s an awful funny way to kill a man.
00:13:43.790 --> 00:13:46.440
Mr. Cook says what\'s needed for the case is a motive.
00:13:47.610 --> 00:13:50.990
Something to show anger, sudden feeling.
00:13:50.990 --> 00:13:53.540
00:13:54.554 --> 00:13:55.950
(distant chattering)
00:13:55.950 --> 00:13:58.283
Wonder how they\'re finding things upstairs.
00:14:00.410 --> 00:14:02.443
Hope she had a little more red up there.
00:14:05.810 --> 00:14:07.830
You know, it\'s kind of sneaking,
00:14:07.830 --> 00:14:09.840
locking her up in town and coming out here
00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:11.890
to get her own house to turn against her.
00:14:13.180 --> 00:14:14.980
00:14:18.598 --> 00:14:19.773
00:14:22.260 --> 00:14:23.603
The law is the law.
00:14:25.600 --> 00:14:28.500
And a bad stove is a bad stove.
00:14:28.500 --> 00:14:30.030
How\'d you like to cook on this?
00:14:30.030 --> 00:14:33.180
00:14:33.180 --> 00:14:34.013
Loses heart.
00:14:37.025 --> 00:14:39.723
00:14:40.840 --> 00:14:42.690
It will not feel them when we go out.
00:15:08.189 --> 00:15:11.939
00:15:15.949 --> 00:15:18.820
00:15:18.820 --> 00:15:20.337
Pretty, ain\'t it?
00:15:25.670 --> 00:15:27.532
00:15:27.532 --> 00:15:28.833
since she was a girl.
00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:35.673
00:15:37.670 --> 00:15:40.210
Suppose she\'s going to quilt it or just knot it?
00:15:40.210 --> 00:15:43.513
00:15:46.090 --> 00:15:47.970
00:15:47.970 --> 00:15:50.570
See if we can clear up that question about the rope.
00:15:54.310 --> 00:15:55.670
00:15:55.670 --> 00:15:57.680
our taking our time up with little things
00:15:57.680 --> 00:16:00.160
while we\'re waiting for them to get the evidence.
00:16:00.160 --> 00:16:01.483
00:16:18.830 --> 00:16:20.600
What are you doing Mrs. Hale?
00:16:20.600 --> 00:16:22.270
00:16:22.270 --> 00:16:23.523
It\'s not sewed too good.
00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:28.470
00:16:28.470 --> 00:16:30.020
00:16:32.730 --> 00:16:33.563
00:16:33.563 --> 00:16:34.903
she was so nervous about?
00:16:35.854 --> 00:16:38.990
00:16:38.990 --> 00:16:41.703
I sew awful queer sometimes when I\'m just tired.
00:16:49.271 --> 00:16:52.086
00:16:52.086 --> 00:16:53.590
I wonder where I could find a piece of paper
00:16:53.590 --> 00:16:54.423
and some string.
00:17:02.170 --> 00:17:03.143
She have a bird?
00:17:05.960 --> 00:17:08.060
00:17:08.925 --> 00:17:10.975
I have not been in this house in so long.
00:17:12.210 --> 00:17:14.750
There\'s a man selling canaries last summer cheap.
00:17:14.750 --> 00:17:17.360
I don\'t know if she took one, but oh, she,
00:17:17.360 --> 00:17:18.630
she would have liked one.
00:17:18.630 --> 00:17:20.773
00:17:22.130 --> 00:17:23.583
She must have had one, though.
00:17:23.583 --> 00:17:25.513
Why else would she have a cage?
00:17:27.077 --> 00:17:28.520
00:17:28.520 --> 00:17:30.139
00:17:30.139 --> 00:17:32.190
00:17:32.190 --> 00:17:34.520
00:17:34.520 --> 00:17:35.570
Being afraid of them.
00:17:36.435 --> 00:17:38.050
And they brought her to my house yesterday
00:17:38.050 --> 00:17:41.173
and my cat got in the room and she was awful upset.
00:17:46.740 --> 00:17:49.663
Look at this door. It\'s broke.
00:17:52.390 --> 00:17:54.103
00:17:58.830 --> 00:18:01.230
00:18:02.830 --> 00:18:03.910
Would have been lonesome for me
00:18:03.910 --> 00:18:06.260
sitting here all by myself waiting for the men.
00:18:10.270 --> 00:18:11.950
00:18:11.950 --> 00:18:14.083
but it makes for a quiet house.
00:18:16.760 --> 00:18:18.460
Wish I\'d come over here sometimes.
00:18:19.630 --> 00:18:20.463
Wish I had.
00:18:22.280 --> 00:18:24.383
00:18:25.760 --> 00:18:27.870
You had a lot of things on your mind.
00:18:27.870 --> 00:18:30.683
Your house, your children.
00:18:33.660 --> 00:18:35.923
And oftentimes we don\'t see how it is with other people
00:18:35.923 --> 00:18:39.463
until something comes up.
00:18:42.740 --> 00:18:46.083
00:18:47.070 --> 00:18:48.663
No company when he did come in.
00:18:50.640 --> 00:18:52.440
Do you know John Burke, Mrs. Peters?
00:18:53.640 --> 00:18:54.683
00:18:56.020 --> 00:18:57.373
I\'ve seen him in town.
00:18:58.960 --> 00:19:00.900
They say he was a good man.
00:19:00.900 --> 00:19:02.420
00:19:02.420 --> 00:19:03.977
Good.
00:19:03.977 --> 00:19:06.050
Didn\'t drink.
00:19:06.050 --> 00:19:07.753
Kept his word as well most.
00:19:08.910 --> 00:19:09.933
Paid his debts.
00:19:11.930 --> 00:19:13.793
He is a hard man Mrs. Peters.
00:19:15.250 --> 00:19:17.150
Just to pass the time of day with him,
00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:20.253
like a raw wind that gets to the bone.
00:19:24.430 --> 00:19:26.523
Should think she would have wanted a bird.
00:19:32.090 --> 00:19:34.040
What do you suppose went wrong with it?
00:19:38.710 --> 00:19:40.010
Tell you what Mrs. Peters.
00:19:42.510 --> 00:19:44.413
Why don\'t you take her quilt in with you?
00:19:45.520 --> 00:19:46.873
Might take up her mind.
00:19:49.740 --> 00:19:52.123
00:19:53.175 --> 00:19:55.170
I can\'t see that anybody
00:19:55.170 --> 00:19:57.120
could possibly object to that, can you?
00:20:00.088 --> 00:20:02.280
I wonder where she keeps her patches and her things.
00:20:02.280 --> 00:20:04.063
00:20:05.814 --> 00:20:07.793
What a pretty box.
00:20:10.097 --> 00:20:10.930
[Indistinct]
00:20:10.930 --> 00:20:12.893
She had this a long time ago when she was a girl.
00:20:29.710 --> 00:20:31.653
00:20:34.820 --> 00:20:36.236
00:20:36.236 --> 00:20:37.736
It\'s in the house.
00:20:39.930 --> 00:20:41.923
Ah, bird cage.
00:20:44.130 --> 00:20:45.080
Has the bird flown?
00:20:47.090 --> 00:20:49.220
00:20:49.220 --> 00:20:51.090
00:20:51.090 --> 00:20:54.283
00:20:57.060 --> 00:20:57.893
00:20:57.893 --> 00:20:59.820
of anyone having come in from the outside.
00:21:00.870 --> 00:21:01.870
It\'s the wrong rope.
00:21:03.750 --> 00:21:05.650
Let\'s go over it again piece by piece.
00:21:08.250 --> 00:21:09.083
00:21:09.083 --> 00:21:10.532
who just bought that rope.
00:21:10.532 --> 00:21:12.115
00:21:23.183 --> 00:21:25.766
00:21:26.920 --> 00:21:29.250
There was a boy, took a hatchet.
00:21:29.250 --> 00:21:34.010
And before my eyes, before I could stop him he...
00:21:35.510 --> 00:21:38.010
if they hadn\'t held me back I would have hurt him.
00:21:43.985 --> 00:21:44.910
00:21:44.910 --> 00:21:46.810
never to have had any children around.
00:21:48.365 --> 00:21:52.773
No, Burke wouldn\'t like the bird.
00:21:58.400 --> 00:22:01.110
00:22:01.110 --> 00:22:02.253
00:22:06.410 --> 00:22:07.410
00:22:07.410 --> 00:22:10.410
that was done in this house that night, Mrs. Hale.
00:22:10.410 --> 00:22:11.963
Killing a man while he slept.
00:22:12.810 --> 00:22:15.190
Slipping a thing around his neck to choke the life
00:22:15.190 --> 00:22:16.023
out of-
00:22:16.023 --> 00:22:17.070
00:22:17.070 --> 00:22:18.777
00:22:18.777 --> 00:22:19.944
We don\'t know.
00:22:20.990 --> 00:22:23.123
00:22:24.975 --> 00:22:26.453
And a bird to sing to you.
00:22:28.650 --> 00:22:31.083
You awful still after that bird was still.
00:22:38.290 --> 00:22:41.249
00:22:41.249 --> 00:22:42.890
00:22:42.890 --> 00:22:45.230
when she wore a white dress and blue ribbons
00:22:45.230 --> 00:22:47.030
and stood up in that choir and sang.
00:22:48.860 --> 00:22:51.373
You know I wish I\'d come over here sometimes.
00:22:52.310 --> 00:22:55.620
That was a crime, who\'s going to punish that?
00:22:55.620 --> 00:22:57.220
00:22:57.220 --> 00:22:59.363
00:23:00.660 --> 00:23:02.643
You know it\'s queer, Mrs. Peters.
00:23:03.661 --> 00:23:06.313
We live close together and yet far apart.
00:23:08.290 --> 00:23:09.990
We all go through the same things.
00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:13.890
It\'s all just a different kind of the same thing.
00:23:15.575 --> 00:23:19.200
If it wasn\'t, why do you and I understand?
00:23:20.200 --> 00:23:22.200
Why do we know what we know this minute?
00:23:28.753 --> 00:23:31.523
If I was you, I wouldn\'t tell her her fruit was gone.
00:23:32.980 --> 00:23:34.300
Tell her it ain\'t.
00:23:34.300 --> 00:23:36.380
Tell her it\'s all right, all of it.
00:23:36.380 --> 00:23:37.530
Here.
00:23:37.530 --> 00:23:39.130
Take that in to prove it to her.
00:23:40.840 --> 00:23:43.190
She may never know whether it was broke or not.
00:23:49.660 --> 00:23:51.070
00:23:51.070 --> 00:23:52.032
getting all worked up over a little thing
00:23:52.032 --> 00:23:53.683
like a dead canary.
00:23:55.027 --> 00:23:58.280
As if, as if it could have anything in the world
00:23:58.280 --> 00:23:59.877
to do with it.
00:23:59.877 --> 00:24:01.363
Now wouldn\'t they laugh.
00:24:04.855 --> 00:24:07.883
00:24:09.297 --> 00:24:11.880
(men chatting)
00:24:12.887 --> 00:24:15.390
00:24:15.390 --> 00:24:18.460
00:24:18.460 --> 00:24:20.210
except for the reason for doing it.
00:24:21.610 --> 00:24:23.560
You know juries when it comes to women.
00:24:25.262 --> 00:24:28.460
Well some definite thing, something to show.
00:24:28.460 --> 00:24:30.160
Something to build a story around.
00:24:32.636 --> 00:24:35.473
I think it will connect up with this clumsy way of doing it.
00:24:41.525 --> 00:24:45.486
00:24:45.486 --> 00:24:47.125
00:24:47.125 --> 00:24:49.193
You send Frank out for me later.
00:24:51.010 --> 00:24:52.020
I want to go over everything.
00:24:52.020 --> 00:24:54.510
I\'m not satisfied we can\'t do better.
00:24:54.510 --> 00:24:57.203
00:24:58.364 --> 00:25:00.198
00:25:00.198 --> 00:25:02.213
the ladies have picked out.
00:25:10.170 --> 00:25:12.533
No, Mrs. Peters doesn\'t need supervising.
00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:18.670
For that matter a sheriff\'s wife is married to the law.
00:25:19.670 --> 00:25:21.620
Ever think of it that way, Mrs. Peters?
00:25:23.670 --> 00:25:25.193
00:25:26.770 --> 00:25:28.290
00:25:28.290 --> 00:25:31.157
I want you to take a look at these windows.
00:25:31.157 --> 00:25:32.153
00:25:33.030 --> 00:25:35.063
00:26:23.915 --> 00:26:25.640
00:26:25.640 --> 00:26:27.343
that she wasn\'t going to quilt it.
00:26:28.900 --> 00:26:33.040
She was going to, what is it you called it, ladies?
00:26:33.040 --> 00:26:34.753
00:26:35.882 --> 00:26:38.332
