Jesse James
Narrator: In the spring of 1864, Jesse James rode to war ...
旁白：1864 年春天，杰西·詹姆斯骑马奔赴战场……
there would be no papers to sign, no brass-button uniforms, no government-issue firearms.
没有需要签署的文件，没有黄铜纽扣的制服，没有政府发行的枪支。
He simply followed creeks and hog-trails into the darkness of the Missouri woods, where the guerrilla fighters made camp.
他只是沿着小溪和猪道进入密苏里州森林的黑暗，游击队战士在那里扎营。
Phil Stewart, Local Historian: : The regular Confederate forces had already been driven out of this area.
当地历史学家菲尔·斯图尔特 (Phil Stewart)：：南方联盟正规军已被赶出该地区。
If a young man was going to fight for the Southern side, it was going to have to be with a guerrilla unit because there were no active Confederate forces in the area.
如果一个年轻人要为南方而战，他就必须加入游击队，因为该地区没有活跃的南方联盟军队。
Fred Chiaventone, Author: : When Jesse James first joins the Missouri guerrillas -- what they often referred to as bushwhackers -- he's 16 years old.

The first thing you thought is, what is this kid doing here?

Narrator: : Jesse James' boyhood was a long, sure ride toward battle -- on a trail marked by partisan politics, violence and loss.
旁白：杰西·詹姆斯的童年是一段漫长而坚定的战斗旅程——一条充满党派政治、暴力和损失的道路。
He was born in September of 1847 in Clay County, Missouri, to Robert and Zerelda James, who had migrated west from Kentucky.
1847 年 9 月，他出生于密苏里州克莱县，父亲是罗伯特·詹姆斯 (Robert James) 和泽瑞达·詹姆斯 (Zerelda James)，他们从肯塔基州向西移民。
Robert James was a slave-holding Baptist preacher who worked hard to keep the abolitionists and their threatening doctrines from circulating among his congregants.
罗伯特·詹姆斯是一位持有奴隶的浸信会传教士，他努力阻止废奴主义者及其威胁性教义在他的会众中传播。
When Jesse was only three, Robert James died of cholera.
当杰西只有三岁时，罗伯特·詹姆斯死于霍乱。
Zerelda managed to fend off poverty by marrying a country doctor named Reuben Samuel, but life in Missouri in the 1850s was hardly stable.
泽瑞尔达 (Zerelda) 与一位名叫鲁本·塞缪尔 (Reuben Samuel) 的乡村医生结婚，摆脱了贫困，但 1850 年代密苏里州的生活并不稳定。
The question of slavery was ripping apart the American frontier.
奴隶制问题正在撕裂美国边境。
When Jesse was just nine, the Kansas-Missouri Border War erupted.
当杰西九岁的时候，堪萨斯-密苏里边境战争爆发了。
During the five years of bloody fighting that followed, everybody on that border was forced to take sides.
在接下来的五年血腥战斗中，边境上的每个人都被迫选边站队。
The James-Samuel family sided Southern.
詹姆斯-塞缪尔家族站在南方一边。
Slaves accounted for nearly half the family's wealth.
奴隶占了家庭财富的近一半。
The way they saw it, no government had the right to strip them of their property or tell them how to conduct their business.
在他们看来，任何政府都无权剥夺他们的财产或告诉他们如何开展业务。
So there was no confusion in Jesse's household when the Civil War began: his older brother Frank joined up to fight with the Rebels.
因此，在内战开始时，杰西的家庭并没有出现混乱：他的哥哥弗兰克加入了叛军的行列。
But Union troops routed the Confederate forces in Missouri, and then occupied Clay County.
但联邦军队在密苏里州击溃了南方联盟军队，然后占领了克莱县。
T.J.
T.J.
Stiles, Author: : For the most part in Clay County, these occupying forces were other Missourians.
Stiles，作者：：在克莱县的大部分地区，这些占领军都是其他密苏里人。
The provisional state government of Missouri organized its own militia force, and these local Missourians saw their Confederate neighbors as traitors.
密苏里州临时州政府组织了自己的民兵部队，这些当地的密苏里人将他们的南部邦联邻居视为叛徒。
The local militia forces began to raid the homes of those suspected of assisting the insurgents and partisans in Clay County.
当地民兵部队开始袭击那些涉嫌协助克莱县叛乱分子和游击队的人的家。
And the war quickly took on this savage counterinsurgency, guerrilla warfare conflict that can be some of the most savage warfare of all.
战争很快就展开了这场野蛮的反叛乱、游击战冲突，这可能是所有战争中最野蛮的战争之一。
Phil Stewart, Local Historian: : The Southern sympathizers in this area could easily be taken out, lynched in their own yards.
菲尔·斯图尔特（Phil Stewart），当地历史学家：：这个地区的南方同情者很容易被除掉，在他们自己的院子里处以私刑。
Their houses were burned on a regular basis.
他们的房屋经常被烧毁。
Livestock confiscated by the Union authorities.
牲畜被联盟当局没收。
And it became an eye for an eye.
它变成了以眼还眼。
Christopher Phillips, Historian: : It was so bad that, uh, one Union commander actually ordered the depopulation of four entire countries of western Missouri.
历史学家克里斯托弗·菲利普斯：这太糟糕了，呃，一位联邦指挥官实际上下令减少密苏里州西部四个国家的人口。
Everyone had to leave and then their homes were burned.
每个人都必须离开，然后他们的房屋被烧毁。
Narrator: : By 1864, most Missourians were tired of seeing Confederate sympathizers strung up on their front porches; or Unionist civilians gunned down in their fields.
旁白： 到 1864 年，大多数密苏里州人都厌倦了看到南部邦联的同情者被吊在自家前廊上。或统一派平民在他们的田地里被枪杀。
But the James-Samuel clan ran with a fierce and militant minority.
但詹姆斯-塞缪尔家族中却有一群凶猛好战的少数人。
Jesse's brother Frank had joined a murderous Confederate guerrilla group; in retaliation, Jesse's stepfather was tortured nearly to death; his pregnant mother arrested.
杰西的兄弟弗兰克加入了一个凶残的南部邦联游击队。为了报复，杰西的继父被折磨得几乎死去。他怀孕的母亲被捕。
Zerelda signed an oath of allegiance to the Union to get out of jail, but she refused to abide by the terms of her surrender ...
泽瑞尔达签署了效忠联盟的誓言以出狱，但她拒绝遵守投降条款……
and she refused to let her sons forget the family's humiliation.
她不肯让儿子们忘记家族的耻辱。
Michael Gooch, Local Historian: : She was not a wallflower by any means, very vocal, very outspoken.
迈克尔·古奇 (Michael Gooch)，当地历史学家： 无论如何，她都不是壁花，她非常敢于发声，非常直言不讳。
Frank and Jesse were definitely raised pro-Southern, pro-Confederate.
弗兰克和杰西无疑是在亲南方、亲邦联的背景下长大的。
To be treated like the Jameses were treated demanded that vengeance be taken or you could not hold your head up as a man.
要像詹姆斯家族那样受到对待，就必须进行报复，否则你就无法作为一个男人抬起头来。
Narrator: : In Missouri, vengeance was best got riding with one of the dozens of bushwhacker groups in the state.
旁白：：在密苏里州，复仇最好是与该州数十个丛林袭击组织之一一起进行。
Over the next year, Jesse James would be schooled in violence and terror.
接下来的一年，杰西·詹姆斯将接受暴力和恐怖教育。
Though they were partisan Confederates, these guerrillas operated without official sanction, and outside the accepted rules of war.
尽管他们是有党派倾向的南方邦联，但这些游击队的活动没有得到官方批准，也超出了公认的战争规则。
They were simply out to punish their enemies, promoting fear as they went.
他们只是为了惩罚敌人，在行进过程中制造恐惧。
Jesse's most important mentor was William T.
杰西最重要的导师是 William T.
Anderson, Bloody Bill.
安德森，血腥比尔。
Anderson's sisters had been arrested for aiding the bushwhackers; one was crushed to death in a jail collapse.
安德森的姐妹们因协助丛林袭击者而被捕。其中一人在监狱倒塌中被压死。
By 1864, Bloody Bill was in full fury.
1864 年，血腥比尔勃然大怒。
Tom Goodrich, Author: : Bill Anderson's group never numbered more than 80.
汤姆·古德里奇 (Tom Goodrich)，作者：：比尔·安德森 (Bill Anderson) 的团队人数从未超过 80 人。
And yet those 80 men just nearly turned Missouri inside out.
然而，这 80 个人几乎把密苏里州翻了个底朝天。
His was the group.
他就是这个团体。
And it only stands to reason that some impressionable kid like Jesse would want to go out and join the best because that's the one that's going to do the most damage to this hated enemy.
毫无疑问，像杰西这样易受影响的孩子会想出去加入最好的人，因为那才是对这个可恶的敌人造成最大伤害的人。
Phil Stewart, Local Historian: : William T.
Phil Stewart，当地历史学家：William T.
Anderson was a psychopath.
安德森是一个精神病患者。
This guy loved to kill.
这家伙就喜欢杀人。
The odds didn't matter.
赔率并不重要。
He could go in three-to-one odds against him and just look at his men and go, there they are, let's go, draw pistols and ride right into the middle of them.
他可以以三比一的比分对抗他，只要看看他的手下，他们就在那里，我们走吧，拔出手枪，骑到他们中间。

Stiles, Author: : The actual fighting was incredibly savage.
斯泰尔斯（Stiles），作者：：实际的战斗非常野蛮。
The warfare was very close range.
战争是非常近距离的。
The use of the revolver as the primary weapon dictated that it be close-range warfare.
使用左轮手枪作为主要武器决定了它是近距离战争。
Michael Gooch, Local Historian: : The guerrillas habitually carried multiple revolvers.
当地历史学家迈克尔·古奇 (Michael Gooch)：：游击队习惯性携带多把左轮手枪。
You'd ride into battle, shoot off one revolver, drop it, pick up another revolver and continue right on fighting.
你会骑马进入战斗，射出一把左轮手枪，放下它，拿起另一把左轮手枪，然后继续战斗。
So a guerrilla armed with even just three revolvers had 18 quick shots as opposed to the single shot weaponry that his opponents were carrying.
因此，一名游击队员即使只配备三支左轮手枪，也能快速射击 18 次，而对手则携带单发武器。
Now the 36 caliber not being a real fast killer because of its small size, but you still have a wounded opponent laying on the ground.
现在，36口径由于尺寸小而并不是真正的快速杀手，但你仍然有一个受伤的对手躺在地上。
And Union medical records indicate an awful lot of head shots so we know they were just walking up and finish them off after the battle.
联邦医疗记录显示有大量头部中弹，所以我们知道他们只是在战斗结束后走上前干掉他们。
Fred Chiaventone, Author: : Jesse and his companions, they're not satisfied just to kill the enemy.
Fred Chiaventone，作者：：杰西和他的同伴们，他们不满足于仅仅杀死敌人。
They will go in, they'll wade in, they'll break skulls, they'll slash throats.
他们会进去，他们会涉水进去，他们会打破头骨，他们会割断喉咙。
They took trophies.
他们夺得了奖杯。
Very often scalps, sometimes ears.
通常是头皮，有时是耳朵。
Oft times they would cut off noses.
他们常常会割掉鼻子。
What they set out to do was to terrorize all of their enemies and potential enemies and to dissuade people from supporting the federal cause.
他们的目的是恐吓所有的敌人和潜在的敌人，并劝阻人们不要支持联邦事业。
They would spread word of their deeds and also of their threats that hopefully would be picked up by the newspapers and printed.
他们会传播他们的行为和威胁，希望这些消息能够被报纸报道并刊登出来。
Narrator: : On September 27, 1864, in Centralia, Missouri, Anderson's boys gave the papers something to write about.
旁白： 1864 年 9 月 27 日，在密苏里州森特勒利亚，安德森的孩子们给报纸写了一些东西。

他们杀害了 22 名正在休假回家的手无寸铁的联邦士兵，并作为一支庞大的游击队的一部分，伏击并屠杀了 150 名联邦士兵。

汤姆·古德里奇（Tom Goodrich），作者：：这是内战的最终暴行之一。
A hundred and some men, helpless, disarmed, murdered in their tracks.
一百多人无助地被解除武装，在途中被杀害。
It would have been a very terrible thing to see.
看到这将是一件非常可怕的事情。
Beheadings, disembowelments, torture, fiendish torture, men begging for the lives.
斩首、剖腹、酷刑、残忍的酷刑、人们乞求生命。
Michael Gooch, Local Historian: : Those bodies were pretty well mutilated up.
当地历史学家迈克尔·古奇（Michael Gooch）：：那些尸体都被肢解了。
Accounts say that there was not a, a corpse on that field that had the same head on it that it started the day with.
据报道，那片土地上没有一具尸体的头颅与当天开始时的头颅相同。

杰西·詹姆斯陷入了可以想象的最野蛮的流血之中。
Narrator: : The horror of Centralia focused attention on Jesse's family and on his guerilla leaders.
旁白：：森特勒利亚的恐怖将人们的注意力集中在杰西的家人和他的游击队领导人身上。
Federal officers banished Zerelda from Missouri, and had her shipped upriver to Nebraska.
联邦官员将泽瑞尔达驱逐出密苏里州，并将她运往上游内布拉斯加州。
The Union Army assigned an old Indian tracker named Samuel P.
联邦军队指派了一位名叫塞缪尔·P.
Cox to hunt down Bill Anderson.

Stiles, Author: : There was a sense that the Civil War had ended not just in the Confederate defeat, but that Jesse James himself had been defeated.
作者斯泰尔斯：有一种感觉，内战不仅以南方联盟的失败而结束，而且杰西·詹姆斯本人也被击败了。
The end of the war was as personal an experience, as bitter an experience, as you can imagine for him.
战争的结束对他来说是一次个人经历，一次痛苦的经历，正如你可以想象的那样。
Narrator: : After a decade of vicious war, Missourians craved normalcy; they wanted to harvest crops, raise hogs, go to church.
旁白：：经过十年的残酷战争，密苏里人渴望恢复正常；他们想要收割庄稼、养猪、去教堂。
Men on both sides went back to their farms and tried to fit themselves into their old lives.
双方的男人都回到了自己的农场，试图适应以前的生活。
But after the war, how could things be like old?
但战后，事情怎么会和以前一样呢？
Politics in Missouri was complicated and nasty, still split along the fault lines of the war.
密苏里州的政治复杂而肮脏，仍然沿着战争的断层线分裂。
The Radicals -- hard-line Unionist and anti-slavery -- took power in post-war Missouri, and they meant to make a stiff peace.
激进派——强硬的联邦主义者和反奴隶制——在战后的密苏里州掌权，他们打算实现严格的和平。

Stiles, Author: : Old office holders, people who had been leading figures in their community, were forced out of office and new men were put in their place.
斯泰尔斯（Stiles），作者：：老官员，他们所在社区的领导人物，被迫下台，新人上任。
These new men who were put into place were the Radicals who had emerged out of the Civil War, people who had embraced the new society of emancipation, of civil rights for African Americans, and who represented an overthrow of everything the old society had stood for.
这些被任命的新人是从内战中脱颖而出的激进分子，他们拥护解放和非裔美国人公民权利的新社会，他们代表着推翻旧社会所代表的一切。
Fred Chiaventone, Author: : There were a great many men who were able to put aside old hurts and they were able to go back and buckle under with the Republican administration.
弗雷德·基亚文托内 (Fred Chiaventone)，作者：：有很多人能够抛开旧伤，能够回去屈服于共和党政府。
But there were some, especially the younger ones, Little Archie Clement, Fletch Taylor, Jesse James, his brother Frank, who just couldn't accept the status quo after the war.
但也有一些人，尤其是年轻的孩子，小阿奇·克莱门特、弗莱奇·泰勒、杰西·詹姆斯和他的兄弟弗兰克，无法接受战后的现状。
They just couldn't deal with it.

Narrator: : Beginning in 1866, the old bushwhackers robbed banks in Liberty, Richmond and Savannah, Missouri, and Russellville, in Kentucky, leaving a trail of dead bank clerks, lawmen and civilians.
旁白：从 1866 年开始，老布什抢劫了密苏里州里士满和萨凡纳以及肯塔基州拉塞尔维尔的银行，留下了许多银行职员、执法人员和平民的尸体。
Many of the bushwhackers were tracked down and jailed, or shot dead, or lynched.
许多丛林袭击者被追踪并入狱，或被枪杀，或被私刑处死。
The James brothers were known to associate with the suspects in this string of robberies, but Jesse had never been publicly connected with a crime, never been so much as mentioned in a newspaper.
众所周知，詹姆斯兄弟与这一系列抢劫案的嫌疑人有联系，但杰西从未公开与犯罪活动有联系，甚至从未在报纸上提及过。
That changed in December of 1869, in a small town in northwest Missouri ...
1869 年 12 月，情况发生了变化，发生在密苏里州西北部的一个小镇……
the way Jesse and Frank understood it, Bill Anderson's killer, Samuel Cox, was running the bank in Gallatin.
按照杰西和弗兰克的理解，杀害比尔·安德森的凶手塞缪尔·考克斯正在经营加拉廷的银行。
By most standards the bank robbery was a disaster: Jesse had stolen a portfolio full of worthless paper; he hadn't killed Cox, but a cashier named John Sheets.
从大多数标准来看，银行抢劫案都是一场灾难：杰西偷走了装满毫无价值的纸张的投资组合；他杀的不是考克斯，而是一个名叫约翰·希茨的收银员。
But it was a crime that set the James brothers mold: an armed daylight raid, a cold-blooded murder carried out in the name of the Confederate cause, and 22-year-old Jesse practically screaming for attention.
但真正让詹姆斯兄弟留下深刻印象的是一场犯罪：一场武装的白天袭击、一场以南部邦联事业名义进行的冷血谋杀，以及 22 岁的杰西几乎尖叫着寻求关注。

Stiles, Author: : As Jesse made his escape from the scene, more than once, they spoke to bystanders and Jesse repeatedly stated that he had killed the killer of Bill Anderson.
斯泰尔斯，作者：：当杰西逃离现场时，他们不止一次与旁观者交谈，杰西反复表示他已经杀死了比尔·安德森的凶手。
That he had taken revenge for Anderson's death and he was certainly quite proud of the fact.
他为安德森的死报了仇，他当然为此感到非常自豪。
In fact, he seemed to have been in a state of ecstasy over it.
事实上，他似乎为此而欣喜若狂。
Cathy Jackson, Historian: : The Gallatin bank robbery was significant for Jesse James because it was the first time that he was really mentioned in conjunction with a crime.
历史学家凯茜·杰克逊：：加拉廷银行抢劫案对杰西·詹姆斯来说意义重大，因为这是他第一次真正与犯罪一起被提及。
They told his name.
他们告诉了他的名字。
They told where he was from.
他们告诉了他来自哪里。
Narrator: : Newspapers across the state replayed the robbery, the deliberate assassination of the clerk, and the James brothers' daring escape ...
旁白：：全州报纸重述了这起抢劫案、蓄意刺杀店员的事件以及詹姆斯兄弟的大胆逃跑……
a "desperate and dangerous man," they called Jesse, "wandering, reckless ...
他们称杰西是一个“绝望而危险的人”，“徘徊、鲁莽……
a Strong southern man."
一个坚强的南方人。”
The story caught the attention of an editor at the Kansas City Times, John Newman Edwards.
这个故事引起了《堪萨斯城时报》编辑约翰·纽曼·爱德华兹的注意。
Edwards was former Rebel Army officer who was trying mightily to inspire the old Confederate wing of the Democratic party to jump back into the political skirmish.
爱德华兹是前叛军军官，他极力试图激励民主党的旧邦联派重新卷入政治冲突。
Fred Chiaventone, Author: : Edwards is a bit of an alcoholic.
Fred Chiaventone，作者：：爱德华兹有点酗酒。
He's disappointed.
他很失望。
He is an unrepentant rebel.
他是一个不思悔改的叛逆者。
And if there was ever a minister of propaganda for the Southern rebels and the outlaws that followed the Civil War, it was John Newman Edwards.
如果说内战后有一位为南方叛军和不法之徒担任宣传部长的话，那就是约翰·纽曼·爱德华兹。

Stiles, Author: : Edwards learns of this Confederate guerrilla who, four years after the end of the war, tries to take revenge for the death of Bill Anderson, one of the most ruthless Confederate guerrillas.
斯泰尔斯，作者：：爱德华兹了解到这位南部邦联游击队员，在战争结束四年后，他试图为最残酷的南部邦联游击队员之一比尔·安德森的死报仇。
And this naturally appeals to him.
这自然对他有吸引力。
Narrator: : Not long after the Gallatin robbery, Edwards sought out the James brothers, and as soon as he met them, he understood what he had.
旁白：加勒廷抢劫案发生后不久，爱德华兹找到了詹姆斯兄弟，一见到他们，他就明白了自己的情况。
Frank was shy and sullen, maybe, but Jesse was a horse that could be ridden for distance.
弗兰克可能很害羞、闷闷不乐，但杰西是一匹可以骑得远的马。
T.J.
T.J.
Stiles, Author: : Jesse was temperamentally clearly the one who liked to get attention.
Stiles，作者：：杰西在性情上显然是一个喜欢受到关注的人。
He wanted to be somebody who had a public presence.
他想成为一个在公众面前露面的人。
He wanted to be out there in the public eye.
他想出现在公众视野中。
Narrator: : With Edwards as his spur and proof-reader, Jesse wrote a letter, addressed to the Governor of Missouri, but published in the Kansas City Times.
旁白：：在爱德华兹的推动和校对下，杰西写了一封信，写给密苏里州州长，但发表在《堪萨斯城时报》上。
Jesse denied any involvement in the killing at Gallatin, and began a campaign to win himself status as Missouri's Number One Victim.
杰西否认与加拉廷杀戮有任何关系，并开始了一场运动，为自己赢得密苏里州头号受害者的地位。
The beauty of it was, that Jesse's own story rhymed perfectly with the bigger myth Edwards was trying to create -- all ex-Confederates were being victimized by the Radicals.
它的美妙之处在于，杰西自己的故事与爱德华兹试图创造的更大的神话完美地押韵——所有前南方联盟成员都成为激进分子的受害者。
Over the next year and a half, Jesse James -- along with Frank and a half-dozen ex-bushwhackers such as Clell Miller and the Younger brothers -- robbed one bank, two stagecoaches, and two railroads.
在接下来的一年半里，杰西·詹姆斯与弗兰克以及克莱尔·米勒和弟弟等六名前丛林黑客一起抢劫了一家银行、两辆驿马车和两条铁路。
Meanwhile, Edwards was busy knitting the new legend: young Jesse, according to Edwards, had fought with grit and valor in the war -- and he was still fighting.
与此同时，爱德华兹正忙着编织新的传奇：根据爱德华兹的说法，年轻的杰西在战争中表现出勇气和英勇，而且他仍在战斗。
If Jesse James was robbing anybody, it was only Radical banks and the corrupt railroad corporations who were ruining Missouri farmers.
如果杰西·詹姆斯抢劫了任何人，那么只有激进银行和腐败的铁路公司正在毁掉密苏里州的农民。
In Edwards fanciful telling Jesse was religious, fastidious, kind to women, children and animals; saved poor widows from foreclosure.
在爱德华兹的想象中，杰西虔诚、挑剔，对妇女、儿童和动物友善。使贫穷的寡妇免于丧失抵押品赎回权。
He was ...
他是...
America's own Robin Hood.
美国自己的罗宾汉。
Fred Chiaventone, Author: : Now there's no evidence that Frank and Jesse James ever robbed from the rich and gave to the poor.
弗雷德·基亚文托内 (Fred Chiaventone)，作者：：现在没有任何证据表明弗兰克和杰西·詹姆斯曾经抢劫富人并施舍给穷人。
It's a pretty good bet that Frank and Jesse used their ill-gotten gains for their own purposes.
很有可能弗兰克和杰西将他们的不义之财用于自己的目的。
