Tone and Style

The episode balances the moral gravitas and dry wit typical of Gunsmoke. Dialogue highlights the cultural gap between outsiders and locals, and Matt Dillon’s authoritative but empathetic voice carries the emotional core. There’s an undercurrent of critique about sensationalism and a warning about the consequences that come when customs and the dead are disrespected.

---

Conclusion

“Sunday Supplement” is a somber meditation on the dangers of outsider interference and sensationalism. Through sharp dialogue and a tightly-woven plot, it admonishes those who view violence and tragedy as entertainment, and honors the complicated humanity of the West, both settlers and native people. The episode is both an exciting western tale and a subtle social commentary, elevated by the rich audio restoration presented in this podcast.

[Narrator/Announcer]

Gun Smoke Brought to you by Chesterfield. Chesterfield packs more pleasure because it's more perfectly packed. Thanks to Accuray, they satisfy the most 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 Dodge. Gun Smoke Gun Smoke Starring William Conrad the transcribed story of the violence that moved west with young America and the story of a man who moved with it.

[Matt Dillon]

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 lone.

[Doc Adams]

Well, for heaven's sake. Matt.

[Matt Dillon]

Yeah, what? Doc?

[Doc Adams]

Look at that coming. It's a surrey. What? Our four passengers. Surrey. Oh, well, that's the first one of those I've seen west of St. Louis. What?

[Matt Dillon]

That's Kitty up there with a driver, isn't it, Doc?

[Doc Adams]

Kitty or. Oh, why, so it is. But who is the driver?

[Matt Dillon]

I don't know. I don't know the one sitting in the back either.

[Doc Adams]

That's pretty fancy for Doug.

[Matt Dillon]

Those are a couple of dudes if.

[Doc Adams]

I ever saw any Green Squad.

[Kitty]

Hi, Max.

[Matt Dillon]

Hi, Kitty.

[Doc Adams]

Hello, Kitty.

[Kitty]

Haven't met anyone.

[Doc Adams]

Haven't even seen them yet.

[Kitty]

Marshall Dillon, Doc Adams, the Samuel Sprague and Cliffson Bunker.

[Doc Adams]

Hello. Quite a wagon you gentlemen have. We brought it with us, Doctor, on the train. We've been all over the country around here in that surrey, haven't we, Bunker? What are you, prospectors? No, Doc, we're writers, Doctor, from New York. Writers? Did you ever read anything by Ned Buntline? Oh, then you're not reporters. You. You write make believe stories? Well, we want to write true stories, Doctor, but there doesn't seem to be much material around here.

[Kitty]

Kind of disappointed. There hasn't been a gunfight since they arrived. And every Indian in Kansas seems to be growing old on a reservation.

[Doc Adams]

We're not going to get any stories this way.

[Matt Dillon]

You mentioned that writer Ned Buntline, Mr. Spring. I met him once through Jim Bridger.

[Doc Adams]

Oh, yes. He wrote a lot of stories about Jim Bridger's adventures.

[Matt Dillon]

Most of them were lies. They made Bridger look like a fool.

[Doc Adams]

They also made Jim Bridger famous, Marshall.

[Matt Dillon]

Like Wyatt Earp. Vonline wrote about him, too.

[Doc Adams]

Anything wrong with being famous?

[Matt Dillon]

I guess it depends how you get that way, Mr. Sprigg.

[Doc Adams]

Yeah, go stir him up some Indians. Mad a few massacred families out here would. Oh, that'd make nice reading in New York.

[Matt Dillon]

Yeah.

[Doc Adams]

Let's go get a drink, Kitty.

[Kitty]

You two go ahead. I'll join you.

[Doc Adams]

All right. Good day, gentlemen. Gentlemen.

[Kitty]

Well, you were a great help.

[Matt Dillon]

What do you care about then?

[Kitty]

Kitty, I don't think a series of stories in the New York papers would hurt Dodge any, do you?

[Doc Adams]

Oh. Oh, she's thinking of business, Matt. I keep forgetting she's half owner of the long branch now.

[Matt Dillon]

So that's it, huh?

[Kitty]

Of course it is. Don't want anybody killed. But you might at least be polite to him.

[Matt Dillon]

Haven't got time. Kidding.

[Doc Adams]

What?

[Matt Dillon]

I got to ride up to Hayes City. Tomorrow may not be back for a week.

[Doc Adams]

Good.

[Matt Dillon]

You want to come along?

[Narrator/Announcer]

Introducing one of the country's best known jazz musicians and arrangers, Mr. Bobby Haggart. How about whistling along with him?

[Kitty]

Packs more pleasure Packs more pleasure Chesterfield packs more pleasure Because Chesterfield's more perfectly.

[Narrator/Announcer]

Packed it stands to reason A cigarette made better and packed better Smokes better, tastes better and Chesterfield is more perfectly packed by Accuray this electronic miracle removes human error in cigarette manufacture. So Accuray Chesterfield is firm and pleasing to the lips. Mild, yet deeply satisfying. Yes, Chesterfield gives you something no other cigarette can give you.

[Kitty]

Chesterfield packs more pleasure because Chesterfield Chesterfield's.

[Narrator/Announcer]

More perfectly packed to the touch, to the taste. Chesterfield packs more pleasure because it's more perfectly packed by Chesterfield Mild, yet they satisfy the most.

[Doc Adams]

Look, that's Cowboy up ahead there, Mr. John.

[Matt Dillon]

Yeah.

[Doc Adams]

Pretty sloppy looking, ain't they? Half of them ain't even setting their saddles straight.

[Matt Dillon]

Uh huh.

[Doc Adams]

Yeah. Not that I blame them then, riding them terrible McClellan saddles.

[Matt Dillon]

I think they've been hit, Chester. They must have had a fight.

[Doc Adams]

Hey, by golly, I think you're right.

[Matt Dillon]

Let's pull up.

[Doc Adams]

Some of them boys is wounded. And look there. A couple of them tied across their saddles. They're dead.

[Matt Dillon]

I think I know that, Lieutenant. Chester. Yeah? It's Lieutenant Bain.

[Doc Adams]

What in the world do you suppose is happening?

[Matt Dillon]

Hello, Lieutenant. Can we give you any help?

[Doc Adams]

Might have this morning, Marshall.

[Matt Dillon]

Indians.

[Doc Adams]

Chief Little Hawk, Little Hawk, the Pawnee. Haven't you heard, Marshall?

[Matt Dillon]

But I've been in Hay City for a week.

[Doc Adams]

Little Hawk and 40 Brave jumped reservation fork five days ago.

[Matt Dillon]

He's one of the most peaceful chiefs in Kansas, Lieutenant.

[Doc Adams]

Look at my patrol, Marshal. Two dead and half a dozen wounded.

[Matt Dillon]

I don't understand it.

[Doc Adams]

Neither does anybody else. They wiped out a family over on Walnut Creek yesterday and he hit us this morning.

[Matt Dillon]

You're the only cavalry in the field.

[Doc Adams]

Yeah. Funny thing. We picked up Little Hawk's trail right here, Marshal. Right out of that grove of trees. Huh? It's a Pawnee burying ground. Guess they stopped there to make medicine or something. Well, see you at the dance, Marshal.

[Matt Dillon]

Yeah. Lieutenant, I'm sorry it happened.

[Doc Adams]

So am I.

[Kitty]

Up for it.

[Matt Dillon]

Come on, Justin.

[Doc Adams]

Them four doubles, they really got it, didn't they?

[Matt Dillon]

Well, they're not far from Port Dodge.

[Doc Adams]

Now where are we going? Look at this Pawnee graveyard.

[Matt Dillon]

Not exactly a graveyard, Jose.

[Doc Adams]

What is it then?

[Matt Dillon]

You'll see.

[Doc Adams]

What you doing? What? All them poles sticking up over there with them platforms on graves, Justin. Oh, yeah. I'VE heard of that. They bury people up in the air on them platforms, don't they?

[Matt Dillon]

Yeah, that's right.

[Doc Adams]

These is all new, Mr. Dillon. At least they're empty. Ain't no corpses laying on them.

[Matt Dillon]

No. Little Hawk must have come by here to pick up his dead and take him with him.

[Doc Adams]

What for?

[Matt Dillon]

I don't know.

[Doc Adams]

They must have been in an awful hurry. Look at that platform over there. Uh huh. It's half tore down.

[Matt Dillon]

Yeah, I noticed it.

[Doc Adams]

The rest of them ain't none. I declare, I. I don't feel right here, Mr. Gentlemen.

[Matt Dillon]

Neither do I, Chester. All right, come on, let's go.

[Doc Adams]

I'll buy us the first drinks, Mr. Dillon.

[Matt Dillon]

All right, Justin.

[Doc Adams]

I swear my throat's solid. Alcohol?

[Matt Dillon]

Yes. Get it?

[Doc Adams]

Yeah. She wants you, mister.

[Matt Dillon]

I'll join you at the bar, Justin.

[Kitty]

All right. How long have you been back, man?

[Matt Dillon]

Ah, since noon, Kitty. I had a lot of business at the bank.

[Kitty]

Huh?

[Matt Dillon]

Well, not personal business, you understand.

[Kitty]

Matt, you remember Sprig and Bunker?

[Matt Dillon]

No. Those dudes still in town?

[Kitty]

Matt, they want to talk to you.

[Matt Dillon]

Now, Kitty, their stories aren't going to put Dodge on the map. It's already there. Texas cattle did it, not New York Writers.

[Kitty]

Please, Matt, I'm asking in.

[Matt Dillon]

Well, if you're going to turn female.

[Kitty]

On me, you forget I'm part owner of this place. Now I can have you thrown out.

[Matt Dillon]

Yeah, I'd sure be talking to those.

[Kitty]

Two right there, Matt. At that table. You see him?

[Matt Dillon]

No.

[Kitty]

Well, then walk around a while. You'll find him. I'm going to talk to j.

[Matt Dillon]

Good evening, gentlemen.

[Doc Adams]

Marshall Dillon. Sit down, Marshall. Sit down.

[Matt Dillon]

All right.

[Doc Adams]

Marshall, we've got a proposition to make you. Oh, you tell him, Sprig. Well, Marshall, we heard about those Indians.

[Matt Dillon]

Some soldiers from Fort Dodge were in.

[Doc Adams]

Here a while ago and we want to find them.

[Matt Dillon]

What are you talking about, Sprig?

[Doc Adams]

Well, I don't mean find them exactly, but the next time they attack some settler, we want to be the first to get there. That way we'd really see what it's like. Marshall.

[Narrator/Announcer]

Maybe we could even talk to the survivors.

[Doc Adams]

If there are any. We'll pay you. Well.

[Matt Dillon]

Pay me for what?

[Doc Adams]

For guiding us, for taking us there.

[Matt Dillon]

What do you say, Marshall? You want me to guide a couple of vultures like you?

[Doc Adams]

That's uncalled for, Marshall.

[Matt Dillon]

Why don't you go back to New York, huh? They got plenty of corpses there. And they're a whole lot prettier than anything the Indians might leave for you.

[Doc Adams]

Now look here, Marsh.

[Narrator/Announcer]

There's no getting along with him at all.

[Doc Adams]

Spring.

[Kitty]

Well, you certainly didn't talk to them very long, Matt.

[Matt Dillon]

Is that my drink, Joseph?

[Doc Adams]

No, sir, it ain't. No, it ain't. It ain't. It's my. It's my. It's yours now.

[Matt Dillon]

Call yourself another one. I'll buy it.

[Doc Adams]

Well, thank you. I don't mind if I do. Oh, Mr. Dillon, look at this. Little Dai do Miss Kitty's been showing me. They had it hung up behind the bar there. See? It's all carved out of bone.

[Matt Dillon]

Here, let me see that.

[Kitty]

Interesting, isn't it, Matt?

[Matt Dillon]

Where'd this come from, Kitty?

[Kitty]

Well, it's an Indian totem of some kind. Friggin Bunker brought it in.

[Matt Dillon]

Friggin Bunker?

[Kitty]

They just lending it to us to hang behind the bar. Know what? I'll go with him. Ch.

[Doc Adams]

Well, I'll go.

[Matt Dillon]

Where did your men get this totem?

[Doc Adams]

We've had enough of you for tonight, Marshall.

[Matt Dillon]

I want to know where you got this totem.

[Doc Adams]

Sprig, you're choking me.

[Matt Dillon]

Then tell me.

[Doc Adams]

We got it from a soldier.

[Matt Dillon]

A soldier? What soldier?

[Kitty]

A private from Fort Notch.

[Doc Adams]

It was Roger Harlow. We bought it. What is it, Mr. Duster?

[Matt Dillon]

We're riding out the Fort Dodge in the morning and time to wake up Major Honeyman.

[Doc Adams]

All right, Marshall. B Company moved out yesterday. My judgment of the situation is that they'll make almost immediate contact.

[Matt Dillon]

I see, Major.

[Doc Adams]

But I don't like your insinuation that the cavalry is responsible for Little Hawk Jumping reservation. I'll admit garrison life's dull, but no soldier in my command would want action that badly. Where's your proof, Marshal?

[Matt Dillon]

Right here, Major.

[Doc Adams]

Why, this is a Pawnee totem.

[Matt Dillon]

It's more than that, Major. It's a Fox clan totem.

[Doc Adams]

Little Hawks clan. Yeah.

[Matt Dillon]

Well, I've told you where I think it came from. Now, let's get that private in here and settle this, huh?

[Doc Adams]

Marshall? I'll feed him the Little Hawk if this is true. Oh, Sergeant. Sergeant Grimes. Oh, what'd you say his name is? Harlow.

[Matt Dillon]

Roger Harlow?

[Doc Adams]

Yes, Major. Sergeant, you pride yourself on knowing every man at Fort Dodge. As regimental sergeant, I consider it my duty, sir. What company is Private Roger Harlo assigned to? Private Roger Harlow? Yes, that's right. There ain't no Roger Harlo on this post, Major. There never had been.

[Narrator/Announcer]

Where are you listening to Gunsmoke? In your kitchen getting ready for Sunday supper? Maybe in your living room relaxing or out driving. Say, be sure and watch the road, but remember, there's Pleasure ahead. When you smoke Chesterfield when you satisfy yourself With Chesterfield's better taste than mildness it stands to reason A cigarette made better and packed better Smokes better, tastes better and Chesterfield is more perfectly packed by accuray this electronic miracle removes human error in cigarette manufacturer so accurate. Chesterfield is firm and pleasing to the lips Mild, yet deeply satisfying yes, Chesterfield gives you something no other cigarette can give you.

[Kitty]

Chesterfield packs more pleasure because Chesterfield's more.

[Doc Adams]

Perfectly packed to the touch, to the taste.

[Narrator/Announcer]

Chesterfield packs more pleasure because it's more perfectly packed by Chesterfield Mild, yet they satisfy the most.

[Doc Adams]

Matt.

[Matt Dillon]

Huh?

[Doc Adams]

Hello, Matt.

[Matt Dillon]

Morning, Doc.

[Doc Adams]

Hey, good morning. Did you find Sprig and Bunker last night, Matt?

[Matt Dillon]

No. We finally learned at the stable. They drove out of Dodge in that surrey yesterday morning.

[Doc Adams]

You going after him?

[Matt Dillon]

Yeah, as soon as Chester comes with our horses.

[Doc Adams]

What do you think they're up to now?

[Matt Dillon]

Man, I wish I knew.

[Doc Adams]

Doc May ought to be hung at.

[Matt Dillon]

Doc, look over there. Coming to the plaza.

[Doc Adams]

O, you never. You won't have to ride after him now.

[Matt Dillon]

No.

[Doc Adams]

Them and their fancy, sir. Yep. Matt, what are you doing? Hello, Marshall.

[Matt Dillon]

Get on, Bunker. You too, Spring.

[Doc Adams]

We saw it, Marshall. We saw practically all of it. It was exciting and with no help from you. Oh, it was magnificent.

[Narrator/Announcer]

The cavalry really got their own back this time.

[Matt Dillon]

What are you talking about?

[Doc Adams]

The Indians.

[Narrator/Announcer]

The cavalry practically wiped them out.

[Matt Dillon]

What?

[Doc Adams]

Yesterday, Marshall, just before dark. We were driving along the Arkansas and heard all that gunfire and commotion up ahead. And we got there just in time to see what few Indians were left running for their lives. They killed all but half a dozen of them. And they got that chief Little Hog, too. You saw this, Marshall? We wouldn't be making it up, would we? And I might add that it's about time we saw something around here.

[Matt Dillon]

You know, Sprig, I was talking to Doc Adams over there when you drove in. You know what he'd like to see?

[Doc Adams]

No.

[Matt Dillon]

He'd like to see you and Bunker hung.

[Doc Adams]

What?

[Matt Dillon]

And so would a.

[Doc Adams]

What's the matter with you, Marshall?

[Matt Dillon]

Why did you tell me a soldier gave you that totem?

[Doc Adams]

Oh, you. You found out.

[Matt Dillon]

Why did you lie about it?

[Doc Adams]

Because you were choking me. And because I didn't know what you'd do next or why.

[Matt Dillon]

Why? You men robbed a Pawnee grave. You stole a totem. A totem of Little Hawk's clan.

[Doc Adams]

That's all we took. Who cares about a savage idol anyway?

[Matt Dillon]

Little Hawk did. He went on a war path.

[Doc Adams]

Nonsense, Marshall. Over a fool thing like that? Marshall, you're not standing up for a bloodthirsty redskin, are you?

[Matt Dillon]

I knew Little hawk sprig. He was a good chief. He was a brave man and a peaceful one till you shamed him. Well, he's.

[Doc Adams]

He's not shamed now, Marshall. He's a good Indian.

[Matt Dillon]

Now you get out, bully. You get out. Today enough men have died because of you. And you go back to New York, and when you get there, you'll write a story about a marshal who'd have liked nothing better than handing you over to little Hawk. Maybe we're still alive.

[Doc Adams]

Sam.

[Narrator/Announcer]

In a moment, our star, William Conrad.

[Kitty]

Chesterfield packs more pleasure because chesterfield's more perfectly packed.

[Narrator/Announcer]

A cigarette made better and packed better smokes better, tastes better. And chesterfield is more perfectly packed. By accuray, this electronic miracle removes human error in cigarette manufacture. So accurate. Chesterfield is firm and pleasing to the lips. Chesterfield mild, yet they satisfy the most.

[Matt Dillon]

You know, there's a saying on the frontier, kicking won't get you nowhere less than you're a mule. Well, next week, a man complains that somebody's trying to kill him and isn't believed until it happens. But that was the west. Good night.
