[Andrew Rines]

Welcome to the Old Time Radio Westerns. I'm your host, Andrew Rines, and I'm excited to bring you another episode absolutely free. This is one of over 80 episodes released monthly for your enjoyment. Now, let's get into this episode.

[Matt Dillon]

Around Dodge City and in the territory on west, there's just one way to handle the killers and the spoilers, and that's with a U.S. marshal. And the smell of gun Smoke. Starring William Conrad. The story of the violence that moved west with young America and the story of a man who moved with it. I'm that man. Matt Dillon, United States Marshal. The first man they look for and the last they want to meet. It's a chancy job and it makes a man watchful and a little lonely. Good morning, Chester.

[Chester]

I ain't at all sure about that, Mr. Jones.

[Matt Dillon]

Sure about what?

[Chester]

But it's a good morning.

[Matt Dillon]

Well, it's the only one we're going to get. Chester, is that fresh coffee?

[Chester]

No, sure ain't. That's a batch of boiled up last minute. Oh, I ain't had time to make no fresh yet.

[Matt Dillon]

Why, them fellas you locked up last night, mister, they causing trouble?

[Chester]

They've been at me ever since I come in here fussing and complaining.

[Matt Dillon]

About what?

[Chester]

They want me to fix them some breakfast and chain on about it like they've never at before.

[Matt Dillon]

Well, I guess they've never had anything like your cooking before. Chester.

[Chester]

Ain'T you gonna let them out this morning? This dinner?

[Matt Dillon]

Yeah, I guess so. They should be sober enough by now.

[Chester]

Well, then it just don't make a bit of sense for me to go to all the trouble of feeding them, does it?

[Matt Dillon]

No, forget it, Chester. I'm gonna let them out.

[Chester]

I got me enough to do around here. Just redden up the place out feeding a clutch of prisoners. That ain't even gonna stay on.

[Matt Dillon]

All right, Chester, that's enough. Oh, you two can come out now.

[Chester]

Don't seem right to turn the body outside. No food, Marshall.

[Matt Dillon]

The old man could go. Come on, get out of there. And bring your friend with you.

[Chester]

He ain't feeling good, Marshall. Looks like his strength was sapped.

[Matt Dillon]

Now, we was to have some breakfast. Look, you weren't worried about food last night when you rode your horses into the long branch. And I'm not going to worry about it. Now go on, get out of here. I said get out. Oh, come on.

[Chester]

You see what I mean? You think he was running a boarding house around here? You should have just left them laying there machine last night to get prompt.

[Matt Dillon]

On you better get the cell cleaned up, Chester.

[Chester]

And that's nothing, Mr. Dylan. It just don't seem right for them drunks to be able to make the fearful mess they do and have somebody to have to clean up after.

[Matt Dillon]

Go on, Chester, get it over with.

[Chester]

Yes, sir. I'll do it, all right, but I ain't gonna like it.

[Matt Dillon]

Well, I don't like hearing you complain about it either.

[Chester]

Hello, Matt. Chester.

[Matt Dillon]

How about that slow doctor?

[Chester]

Oh, something the matter with you two?

[Matt Dillon]

Well, Chester doesn't like the way the marshal's office is being run, that's all.

[Chester]

Well, neither do I. I was coming in to tell you about it.

[Matt Dillon]

Oh, all right, Doc. What's on your mind?

[Chester]

Some drunken drover jumped into my buggy last night out in front of the office and raced it down the street.

[Matt Dillon]

Well, did he bring it back? He couldn't.

[Chester]

He turned it over going around the corner.

[Matt Dillon]

You know who it was?

[Chester]

No. I did. Whoever it was disappeared into the nearest saloon.

[Matt Dillon]

I'm sorry, Doc, but it doesn't look like I can do anything for you.

[Chester]

Well, why not?

[Matt Dillon]

Well, in the first place, there was no harm done.

[Chester]

My buggy was stolen.

[Matt Dillon]

You got it back, didn't you? For heaven's sake, stop being such an old maid.

[Chester]

Old maid, it seems. Now, look here, Matt.

[Matt Dillon]

What do you want me to do, sit around watching your buggy?

[Chester]

No, no, no, Matt.

[Matt Dillon]

No, of course not.

[Chester]

But there ought to be a better way of keeping the town in line.

[Matt Dillon]

Well, maybe we could pass a law saying that drovers can't drive buggies, huh?

[Chester]

I don't think that's terribly funny, Matt. All I'm saying is there must be something you can do.

[Matt Dillon]

Look, Doc, I've had fevers and ague that you haven't cured, but at least.

[Chester]

Will you come into my office? I try to help, and that's more than I can say for your offer.

[Matt Dillon]

Well, you better stick to your pills.

[Chester]

I intend to. I certainly intend to. I won't be wasting any more time around here, you can be sure of that. I didn't mean to run you down. Oh, you looking for the Marshall? Yeah, go right on in. For all the good it'll do you. I'm getting out.

[Matt Dillon]

Well, doctors seem a little upset. Yeah, well, Doc gets that way sometimes. What can I do for you, Doby? Oh, well, truth is, Marshall, I've come to register a complaint. Well, you're going to have to stand in line. How's that? Oh, never mind. What's your problem? Oh, well, Marshall, those chairs. You know, those chairs. I Have sitting along in front of the hotel along the boardwalk there. Yeah, well, you know, people keep sitting in them. Well, I guess I don't understand. Well, what I mean is those chairs are put there for my hotel guests in the town. Ropers have taken over. Never any room for my guests. Have any of your guests complained to you? No. Well, how do you know that they'd want to use them? Well, I know. I just know, that's all. I see. Now, what do you want me to do about it? Well, Marshall, Dodge House has a reputation to uphold. And it isn't helping any. Every lazy, good Fernandian Dodge spends the day whittling or. Or sleeping right at the front door. I want you to tell those men they can't do that anymore. You asking me to be a doorman, Mr. Doby? Well, no, of course not. Well, I have two suggestions for you, Mr. Doby. Either tell the loafers you speak up to move along, or you take away the chairs. Now, I can't see that that's too much of a problem. Besides, I've never seen one guest at the Dodge House sit on that boardwalk. And all the years you go on, Doby, because you've got a hotel to run and you better tend to it. And I wouldn't be too hard on those loafers you speak of because most of them are men who. All right, all right, Marshall. All right. I'm frank to say I'm. I'm.

[Chester]

I'm disappointed in the Marshall's office.

[Matt Dillon]

Good face. Beginning to get pretty disappointed in. Am I still? Now, where's my Chester?

[Chester]

Yes, sir?

[Matt Dillon]

What happened to my hat?

[Chester]

Yes, sir.

[Matt Dillon]

What do you mean, yes, sir?

[Chester]

I was afraid you was gonna ask that.

[Matt Dillon]

What does that mean?

[Chester]

Yes, sir. See, I was toting in a bucket of water to mop up with this morning, just like come in the door, one of them cussed prisoners hollered something at me. And when I turned around and yelled back, I knocked her hat right off in the peg there and the water slopped all over.

[Matt Dillon]

Well, if you're that bad off, you better get Doc to give you some of that nerve tonic he saves for old women. Now, where did you put it?

[Chester]

The bucket.

[Matt Dillon]

Where did you put my hat? Chester?

[Chester]

Chester. I was trying to dry it out over the stove.

[Matt Dillon]

Oh, come on, Chester.

[Andrew Rines]

Come on.

[Chester]

I just got it a little bit too close. Burned the top clean out of it, Mr. Jones. So I just kind of throwed it out.

[Matt Dillon]

You threw it out?

[Chester]

Wasn't nothing left but that brim. Mr. Gentleman. You know, you. You look kindly the foolish. Just going around in that. The dream.

[Matt Dillon]

All right, Chester, Where.

[Chester]

Where are you going with?

[Matt Dillon]

I am going to the store, Chester, to get myself a new hat so that I won't look so foolish, if that's possible.

[Chester]

Well, hello there, Marshall. Directly with you.

[Matt Dillon]

All right, Jonas.

[Ms. Bagley]

Well, hello, Marshall. Dylan.

[Matt Dillon]

Oh, hello, Ms. Bagley.

[Ms. Bagley]

No, I. I was going to call on you to offer office later today, but now I won't have to. Will I meet you in the store this way?

[Matt Dillon]

No, ma'am, I guess not.

[Ms. Bagley]

You know, Marshall, several of the town ladies have been meeting at our home from time to time to discuss matters affecting our community. And frankly, Marshall, we've been disturbed about the way things have been going on in Dodge.

[Matt Dillon]

Oh, is that so?

[Ms. Bagley]

Yes, Marshall. I was talking to the ladies about it last night. Night bottles all over the street and noise and shootings every time the Texas herds come in.

[Matt Dillon]

Uhhuh.

[Ms. Bagley]

And we ladies feel that perhaps the law might keep things just a little better under control.

[Matt Dillon]

Well, I tell you something, Ms. Bagley, maybe you.

[Ms. Bagley]

Excuse me. There's Mr. Bagley. He's come to take me home in the buggy. I guess I'll have to come to your office after all, Marshall.

[Matt Dillon]

Yeah, why don't you do that?

[Chester]

All right, Marshall, I can take care of you now.

[Matt Dillon]

I want a hat, Jonas.

[Chester]

A hat I just sold you one month or two ago.

[Matt Dillon]

I want another one. Well, sure.

[Chester]

See what I got Our back.

[Matt Dillon]

The same kind will do.

[Chester]

Well, here, have a look at that new Shrop's rifle. Just came in today.

[Matt Dillon]

Reach. Why, Luke Gilmore, you old sheep herder, you. How are you? When'd you get into town? I just rolled in. I got the drive throat and camps. Well, we better fix that up, Jonas.

[Chester]

Yes, I've almost found them all.

[Matt Dillon]

No hurry. I'll be back later. Come on, Luke, I'll buy the first. I won't give you an argument. Well, how long you here for? Just a day this time.

[Chester]

I got my eye on the far west. This part of the country isn't going to make anybody rich. I just figured it's time to move on. You know, that might not be a bad idea for you too, come to think of it.

[Matt Dillon]

Yeah, you may be right, Luke. You may be right. Well, you make it sound like a fortune's just lying there waiting for us.

[Chester]

Well, it is, Matt, I tell you it is.

[Matt Dillon]

What?

[Chester]

Now that the railroad is joined up, there's just no telling what a man could do for himself out there.

[Matt Dillon]

I know, but a lot of gold rushers came Back with holes in their britches.

[Chester]

Sure they did, Matt, but this is different. Things are starting up now. That'll last.

[Matt Dillon]

Well, you know, you could set yourself.

[Chester]

Up your own town.

[Matt Dillon]

You're aiming pretty high, don't you look?

[Chester]

Sure, I'm aiming high, Matt. And you should too. What do you figure you'll ever get out of Dodge?

[Matt Dillon]

Nothing more than I can carry. That's right. That's absolutely right.

[Chester]

You're eating dust and dodging bullets and chasing every penny. Aunty Bad man on the prairie, isn't that right?

[Matt Dillon]

That's about it.

[Chester]

One you're frying in the summer and freezing in the winter. Nurse made in a town that doesn't even thank you for it.

[Matt Dillon]

You always were one to tug up a storm, Luke.

[Chester]

I'm talking sense, Matt. I'm right and you know it. Well, you can stay on here and spend your life for this town and get no thanks for it. Now isn't that so?

[Matt Dillon]

I don't get paid in thanks or much else either.

[Chester]

Well, I'm on the my way, Matt.

[Matt Dillon]

Got to collect some money from a fell up country. But you think it over.

[Chester]

I'll be back.

[Matt Dillon]

You coming through Dodge? Yeah. Yeah, I'm coming through in a few days.

[Chester]

For heaven's sakes, if I'm bothering.

[Matt Dillon]

Oh, no, no. I'm sorry, Kitty. I. I was thinking. What did you say?

[Chester]

It's kind of early to be wool gathering. I just asked you if that fellow was an old friend.

[Matt Dillon]

Yeah, Luke Gilmore. I knew him in Texas.

[Chester]

Oh, you're making some plans with him?

[Matt Dillon]

I don't know yet. Kidding. It just might be.

[Chester]

Awful. Sorry I let it run out of coral oil, but it's refilled right up the top. And I trimmed down the wick a little dab too.

[Matt Dillon]

Thanks, Chester. Just set it down.

[Chester]

Anything else I could get you, Mr. John? Nice cup of coffee?

[Long Robe]

[Matt Dillon]

No, you just brought one, did you?

[Chester]

Oh, yes. Well, now, just see if this winter's open nice and wide.

[Matt Dillon]

Soldiers later got in the gun runners for you.

[Long Robe]

Soldiers not know.

[Matt Dillon]

What do you mean they don't know? This is their business.

[Long Robe]

[Long Robe]

Indian need help from white man. But white man must know Indian.

[Matt Dillon]

Lots of white men know Indians. I'm not the only one to Long.

[Long Robe]

Robe and his people. Marshall the only one. Marshall is friend. We watch now for wagon. Marshall wagon comes.

[Matt Dillon]

Yeah, I've been watching it.

[Long Robe]

Long Robe stand with Marshall.

[Matt Dillon]

No. You stay here out of sight.

[Long Robe]

Long Robe stand with friend.

[Matt Dillon]

I don't want you hurt in any shooting.

[Long Robe]

Not afraid.

[Matt Dillon]

You brought me out here because you thought I could handle this, didn't you? Because you didn't want trouble for your tribe. There'd be plenty of trouble if you were shot. Long rub. Every Indian on these planes would Fight if their cheat was killed.

[Long Robe]

Marshall talks true.

[Matt Dillon]

All right, then you stay down. I'll go out there now and I'll tell you when to come. All right, that's fine. We ain't got room for no more or it'd be too many. I don't want to ride. I want to look in your wagon. Now, mister, I'm not sure I'd take kindly to that. I'm the marshal out of Dodge. I want to know what you're carrying. I tell you, Marshall, you see what I'm carrying, I. Yeah. Won't take much to make it go off. Yeah, and that gun's a sample of the wagon load you're taking to the Indians. Well, now, Marshall, that's mighty interesting talk. How you come to know about that? Let's just say I got friends. Just say you're going to need them.

[Chester]

Shoot him, J.

[Matt Dillon]

You stand to be in enough trouble running guns to the Indians without shooting a U.S. marshal. Ain't nobody going to find you to know about it. Marshall, if you worry, none at all. Come down out of that wagon. Josh, you take another look. Marshall, there three of us, we got guns to ram straight down your throat. There wouldn't be three of you when it was over. You can't take us all free. Maybe not. But I can take the first one to start anything. So go ahead and try it. He's bluffing, Jazz. You can sure find out in a hurry. Now, come on. You make your play or you come down off that wagon. No man wear a tin badge can face me down. All right, who's next? You killed him.

[Chester]

You killed Jack.

[Matt Dillon]

There's either one of you two feeling brave, you drop your guns and you get down off that wagon right now. Stand right there. Long rope. Marshall, tie him up for me, will you? There's a rope under the wagon seat. I'll put this man in the back. Well, you got those two tied. You can drive the wagon back to town. I'll ride alongside. You can pull up now. Long Robe. I'll take over here. We're just about in. It'd be better if you weren't seen around here. You might have to answer a lot of questions.

[Long Robe]

Questions bring trouble.

[Matt Dillon]

They can if people don't understand the answers.

[Long Robe]

Marshall understands answers.

[Matt Dillon]

Well, some of them, anyway.

[Long Robe]

Marshall understands answers about Indians. Marshall knows ways of the plains.

[Matt Dillon]

I've been out here for a long time. I should have learned something all white.

[Long Robe]

Men do not learn.

[Matt Dillon]

Maybe not.

[Long Robe]

It is good for Indian to have Marshall learn.

[Matt Dillon]

I guess so.

[Long Robe]

It is good for white man too. It is good for man to live among people. He understands where there is need. Long Robe go now.
