Another wonderful episode, and we got to see how Ben lost Hoss' mother. Little Adam was a cute bugger - grew up into a mighty handsome Pernell Roberts! The tough guy who sacrificed himself was also a hero, and should be so remembered. Great Post!
What a touching story. 💖 The birthing of the foal was such a strong remembrance for Ben of his wife during the wagon train trip out west. Now her son Hoss having the same care and love for an animal. It did pull on my heart strings when she went down. 💔😢🐴🐴
THAT is exactly what makes a programme or film so good. If you forget that you are watching something on a screen, then the actors, directors, writers, scenery setters and all the other people included are ALL doing a fantastic job, they have brought you into the show to experience it. It takes a lot of work and is not an easy job, but when it’s done well, it’s amazing!
Seeing Hoss shedding tears just the thought of his mother dying that way is sad and tragic. Poor Hoss and Adam too losing their mothers when they were babies. And Little Joe too.
Those “outdoor” stage sets always look so real. Just so beautiful and so much work and materials, to create the realistic look back then. Much better than todays cgi overuse.
Yes, but if you’ll notice, all of the bushes and trees are deathly still. Not a single branch makes the slightest motion, as it would be if this were really out-of-doors.
A very beautiful love story, of sacrifice impulse, and Fatherhood, husbandry wivery, motherhood, and progress regardless of challenges that compel the emotions to quit when the going seems impossible to move forward, as we must move forward. I love when Ben Said his newborn son was as tough as the country the bore him, so true. As kind and intuitive as the country as well.
This was such a wonderful episode. Hoss's mother was such a loving wife to Ben, stepmother to Adam, and mother to Hoss!! She really had a beautiful soul. Thank you for posting this episode. I would like to watch the episodes that show when Adam was born and when Joe was born. I cried when Inga died in Ben's arms. Of course, Ben knew that he had to keep going for his sons's sake.
When she said "Adam is not my son, but you have entrusted him to me" she was wrong. Adam was very much her son even though he was not by birth. You can tell just by seeing the love she has for him and the way Adam loves her!
I enjoyed quite a few trips to various places but four stand out. The first was to Hawaii, which included the day Elvis died. The next was a trip from my home in Tucson, Arizona to McKees Rocks, a suburb of Pittsburgh, to visit my oldest brother. The third was a week-long visit to see my sister in Wallingford, Connecticut, and the fourth was a week-long bus tour of Ireland. My now-departed friend Regina accompanied me on all four. Of those trips, I kept notes of what we saw, did, and even ate in separate journals during all trips except the one to Hawaii and how glad I was I did so. Now, I can relive each visit by reading them and I encourage all who have the pleasure of traveling to do the same.
This is the first time ive seen this ep , fun to se adam as a a kid and hoss as new born baby , hard to se Bens wife die at susch a young age , and not be given the life with ben they both wanted so much , also fun to se the guy playing docktor in little house on the praire . many thanks for this upload Grjngo , regards sweden .
Seems Mrs Cartwright knew a lot more about being safe around horses than her son. Hoss is in a good spot to get seriously injured if that mare moves her head or feet or tries to get up. He needs to be on the OTHER side of the animal, like his mother. Too bad she didn't have the opportunity to teach him better.
Wonderful episode! I hope that there's another one like this about Joe's mother. Would love to see Hoss as a little boy. Adam is just darling in the two episodes that have shown him as a boy❤😊
Yeah, he he dried off pretty quickly. Foals, however, pretty much hit the ground running, and are able to keep up with the herd only a couple hours after arriving on the scene.
"Your dream is worth any hardship.....you make the impossible, possible." "You indulge that man too much. I love him too much." "Walk by Faith and not by sight." "I want to see you lose your dream." "A big, friendly man...Hoss." "Someday, I will write a journal.....Oh Ben, I love you." "Your mother would've been proud of you---mighty proud." Quick capsulations of dialogue worth remembering. Might be great messages for T-shirts!!! Open for analysis in a class of English literature.....along with Shakespeare. "Out damned spot!"---Macbeth. Or, "Romeo, Romeo, where art thou Romeo?"---Romeo and Juliet. These Westerns told stories of Americans coming of age. A history, replete with good and bad, mistakes, opportunities missed. Fictional, yet real. This is what stories should do----enlighten (even crying) us, NOT degrade our existence. Pay a good life forward!!! Thanks for uploading the "Good ol' Days!"
I was 11 when I saw this episode. When I saw her pushing and straining against that wagon, pregnant, I thought Stupid! I never forgot that scene out of all of Bonanza's episodes.
@Nica Agree. I don't know why they didn't cast a young actor that would have resembled the adult Adam. We just have to use our imaginations on this one.
'' A strong ppl . they can put up with a little dissappointment '' Inga says to Ben . Many grps are like this , the Jews the Ukrainians etc . keep enduring anyone who has hardship ... GBU all.

@@gerritsteenbreker4781 Considering the actress was born and raised in the US, she does the swedish accent pretty good. And by the way, in Sweden the speak swedish - not swenglish.
Wow, all those people who made the decision to move out west back then faced such formidable odds to get to their promised land. I'm just grateful that I was born in 1968 and not 1868.
Lorne Greene with his natural hair coloring looks young as he was filming Bonanza. When they gray/whited his hair he really did look older, tho his facial features showed he was younger. Some people age that way naturally too.
Dan Blocker was an even 14 pounds, at birth, in December, 1928. At 12 years old Dan was already 6 feet tall. In adulthood, Dan Blocker attained the same height as President Lincoln, at 6 feet & 4 inches.
Ben's right. Inger will be so proud of her son Hoss. He's just like his late mother in every way possible. Hoss was only a newborn baby just been born when the Indians shot Inger in the back with one of their arrows killing her. Adam was just a young lad when his second stepmother Inger died as a result of the Indians arrow.
Hoss Cartwright is loving and caring just like his mother Inger was. It's just sad that Elizabeth(Adam's mother),Inger(Hoss's mother) and Marie(Little Joe and Clay's mother) never lived long enough to see their sons Adam, Hoss and Little Joe Cartwright grow up. Especially Marie Cartwright who's son Clay Stafford Little Joe's brother never got to know his mother but he did get to know Little Joe though. Inger will be so happy and proud of her boy Hoss about how he turned out to be. Ben Cartwright is a damn good loving and caring father to his three sons who he loves all three very dearly. Later on Ben legally adopts Jamie Hunter as a Cartwright in Adam's vacant place.
This show really needed a common sense consultant! When Inga gets hit by an arrow, the wagon master breaks it off and then rolls her over on her back! This would cause the arrow to be driven deeper into her body!
And he would also say that it´s strange that a foal was born unnoticed by them sitting next to the mare... Bonanza would not win the award for realism. :D
I went back and looked at that scene several times, and I also can't figure out what the wagon master was supposedly doing. I understand why he didn't try to "yank out" the arrow. I've read that could do more harm than good. War arrows (as opposed to hunting arrows) were made with sharpened edges that would dig into the flesh and cause the arrowhead to separate from the shaft if anyone attempted to pull it out. The end result would be to cause even more injury to the victim and leave the arrowhead embedded in the victim's body. However, the wagon master broke off the arrow at its base and turned her over onto her back. As you say, that would have only driven the arrow deeper into her body. They may have just been setting up a dramatic scene where Ben would scoop her into his arms, but it wasn't very realistic.
Lovely story, beautifully acted out. But one has to admit, Inge had a death wish if ever I saw one, as if falling for a Cartwright wasnt enough. As did the Indians whose main battle strategy appeared to be unprotected cavalry charges on a well entrenched enemy. No attempt at surfurtege or taking cover. They could easily have attacked while the settlers were milling around the entrance, but instead they wasted time erecting a grave for their dead. I wish the producers gave the Indians a little more credit as raiders.
Gerry Wilson most people probably know inga Swenson from Benson but she was a great singer too there are two versions of new faces of 1954 on you tube he TV one feaures here she was also in broadway's 110 in he shade 0+ years ago I was the first thing Robert Horton did after leaving wagon train
That baby seriously looked like Hoss. I knew as soon as Inga stood up to help....again....she was going to be killed. I hate to say it, but if she wouldn't have been so ready to do a man's job all the time she wouldn't have gotten killed. She wouldn't listen to what Ben would tell her, she was always defying him and proving she could do a man's job pushing wagons uphill and shooting Indians, etc. If she'd just acted a little more feminine like Ben wanted she'd have made him much happier.
Nothing but questions now! How did the train make it farther west? How was the baby fed? Why do westerns always depict train wagons as horse drawn and spacious enough for riding and sleeping in?
As far as feeding the baby, I noticed they had a cow with the wagon train. They could have fed him cow's milk. I watched Bonanza for years and I never did hear any explanation about how they managed to go on without joining the larger wagon train. I guess the four wagons made it by themselves, or else they found some place to hold up for the winter.
@@kellymcfalls1458 That is a very good question. I guess with cow's milk. There is one scene where it looks like there was a cow with the wagon train. Actually, I wonder if the script writer ever thought about that?
I have wondered that myself. In real life later Joe's lovely horse was murdered (beaten to death I think). I do remember reading that. Don't know who did it.
@@earnold1896 Cochise, was stabbed along with other horses by an intruder in Fat Jones stable when everyone was asleep , some were saved but some had to be Euthanised including Cochise, Michael Landon put up a reward but no one was found and convicted. it happened during the sixth year in October 1964.
Min. 18:31 - what is that "we are entering the Indian country.." ? The WHOLE area from Pacific to Atlantic and from Hudson Bay to Norther Mexico WAS "Indian country".
Hoss was so big, his mother got 2 episides! This was such a great episode.

Well he should have sacrificed himself because he was the one who murdered the Indian
Hoss has the compassion as his
Mother had what a nice man,!!! Love the Cartwrights /bonanza . No
MsGwendolyn Pittman tharpe,
What a touching story. 💖 The birthing of the foal was such a strong remembrance for Ben of his wife during the wagon train trip out west. Now her son Hoss having the same care and love for an animal. It did pull on my heart strings when she went down. 💔😢🐴🐴
except it doesn't happen the way they showed it
Very touching episode. Old classics are better than today's films in terms of contents.
The acting and the writing are excellent. It’s easy to forget it’s a television series.😍

I sure am glad they kept Inga Swenson as Inger
She is a Beauty
@@gerrett108 I wish that they didn't make Felicia Farr (Joe's mother, Marie) a blonde, though

Seeing Hoss shedding tears just the thought of his mother dying that way is sad and tragic. Poor Hoss and Adam too losing their mothers when they were babies. And Little Joe too.
Hoss is much more like his Mother and Inga Swenson is an excellent actress!
I think the baby looked like Hoss and Adam looked like the grown up Adam!
Inga Swenson was good w/accent just like Karl Swenson was. They both from Swedish ancestors but I can’t find any relationship in my searching.
@@suev3339Swenson/Svenson is a VERY common last name in Sweden.

ahhhh so there is were hoss gets his strength from...his beautiful mother!
She seems so warm. Quite a love story!
I loved this episode, even though it tugged at my heartstrings. Hoss is my absolute favorite. 💕
Just realized... Adam has witnessed a lot of tragedy for such a young boy.
I just realized that was Adam yeah
Were you able to watch the next video? I can't seem to find it
This was such a wonderful episode. Hoss's mother was such a loving wife to Ben, stepmother to Adam, and mother to Hoss!! She really had a beautiful soul. Thank you for posting this episode.

That was one fast birth - foal standing up and dry and nice in a second. Haha.
I was thinking that 😂
Time lapse?
If anybody wondered; Inger's last words after "I love you" was "Jag älskar dig". That is swedish for "I love you". Inga Swenson did a good job.
Good catch.
Thank you for that, I wondered about those words and yes, she did a grand job!
WOW, @18:30 picture perfect.
These episodes have such exquisite picture frames and camera direction. Real gems.
Another reason why, Hoss Cartwright inherited his Mom's kind sprit taking care of Animals.
This is the first time ive seen this ep , fun to se adam as a a kid and hoss as new born baby , hard to se Bens wife die at susch a young age
