Drums Along the Mohawk (1939)

Arthur Shields: Reverend Rosenkrantz

Quotes 

• Reverend Rosenkrantz : Any man failing to report to duty will be promptly hanged. Amen.

• Reverend Rosenkrantz : O Almighty God, hear us, we beseech Thee, and bring succor and guidance to those we are about to bring to Your divine notice. First we are thinking of Mary Walaber. She is only 16 years old, but she is keeping company with a soldier from Fort Dayton. He's a Massachusetts man, and Thou knowest no good can come of that.

• Reverend Rosenkrantz : [on the walls of the fort during the battle, after shooting a Redcoat off his horse, speaking solemnly]  God have mercy on his soul.

  [looks closely at rifle] 

  Reverend Rosenkrantz : I must be shooting a little to the left!
