Alpine, Texas (1957)

Ed Prentiss: Narrator

Quotes 

• Narrator : Alpine was like a hundred other towns in Texas. The only thing it had that most others didn't was a railroad spur that connected it to the main line of the southern Pacific. There was nothing unusual about this day in Alpine, except that Hoby Gilman, a Texas Ranger, rode in.

• [last lines] 

  Narrator : Alpine is a prosperous town again, but now there's a fine air of security about it. It's a nice place to live in, because it discovered, as Hoby said it would, that when it got off its knees, it cast a much bigger shadow than it thought it did. The people of Alpine feel different about a lot of things now, especially Texas Rangers.
