 Undressed Under Duress, Season Two, Part Two      

Going It Alone...  Continued 

As the Indians regroup and chase the Sager's lone wagon across the prairie, Young John, his mama, and the rest of his family hold on tightly for the ride of their lives. His daddy, Henry Sager, and Kit Carson, on horseback, gallop behind the wagon. Gunfire ensues. The men do their best to hold back the pursuers as John and his little brother do what they can to protect their family and themselves... 



The Indians are finally driven off under the withering gunfire from those chased, all except one, that is.
The wagon, driven heroically by a family friend, comes to a stop while Henry fights off 
the one lone Indian who refuses to give up the fight.

















Having taken no time to find suitable clothes, John leaps from the wagon in his union suit... 


...and runs toward his daddy who had just managed to best the the young brave in a gruesome 
and final fight to the finish. 




The boy realizes his daddy, knifed in the arm by the now expired Indian, is alive at least for now. 



Kit Carson, having chased away the rest of the war party, rides back to check on the Sagers. They are soon joined by the men of the wagon train who had heard the commotion and came riding up to see how they could help. The wounded Henry is helped to his feet. 





To the consternation of the boy, Kit Carson does not hang around as he has additional important things to do besides saving a little boy. He needs to save the entire west. 
John waves a final and sad goodbye to his rescuer.


This movie is easily found on YouTube and other streaming platforms. Josh of Vermont and I hope you enjoy this saga based on true life events as much as we did.

More pint-sized Undressed Under Duress coming in mid-March. Something Crooked in Part Three
