Killers and the spoilers, and that's with the U.S. marshall 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.
Matt Dillon (1:20)
I'm that man. Matt Dillon, United States Marsh. 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.
Doc Adams (1:59)
It seems to me, Riley, if you'd have brought your wife this far, you'd have brought her on into Dodge for me to care for. I sure would have liked to do that, Doc, but Cassie just carried on about it something terrible. She said she just couldn't stand another turn of them wagon wheels, so I come to get you. Where you bound? We ain't decided on where to settle, Doc. Just heading west. Someplace where it'd be dry for Tassic. Oh, well, you're traveling for your wife. Hell fire, huh? Yeah, Doc, that's the reason for it. You see, Cassie's been ailing for a year or two back home. And finally we just figured to light out yonder and see if it'd help her something. When did she start to sicken? Must be a week now, Doc. First she tried to keep on going, but it just got to be so. She couldn't stand it to ride the wagon no more, so we stopped. What are the symptoms? How's that again? What seems to be wrong with your wife? Is she in pain? Can you keep her food down? Well, I ain't much up on what ails women, Doc, but she's coughing an awful lot. For one thing, she's awful weak. Can't hardly move around. I'll examine it. The wagon's around the next bend Dock down by the stream. I was beginning to think it was in the next county. Down there, Doc. Turn down there. All right.
Kitty (3:31)
I'll head in right here under this tree.
Doc Adams (3:39)
That's good, Doctor. You go on into the wagon now. I'll unhitch my horse from behind the bucket. All right, Riley. It's kind of a hot day to be under all that canvas. Mrs. Riley, I'm Doc Adams. Your husband brought me from Dodge. Mrs. Riley. Easy now, Mrs. Riley, I'm going to turn you over this way.
