Bonanza - The Ponderosa Ranch

Bone-tired but triumphant, Ben Cartwright and his sons, Little Joe, Adam and giant "Hoss" end another battle in their constant war to guard their vast timber-kingdom of The Ponderosa on the Nevada side of the High Sierras.

On the way home they had a tie-in with a man by the name of Bealer and his son. Ben told him that he had until tomorrow to get off his land. Bealer and his son went to get deer meat after Adam told him no hunting in the woods as the Indian chief wouldn't like it. He went anyhow and started the Indians on a warpath.
