Try them soon. And now, gun smoke, starring William Conrad I got the mail Mr. Dillon. Oh, that looks like official stuff, Chester. Yes, it is. All for you, every bit of it. Or you expect on the letter? Oh, no, sir. If I ever got a letter, it just means trouble sometimes. Oh, that's what my mail usually means. Yeah, not this time though. No new wanted notices. Yeah, not a one. Looks like all the bad men have had to change our heart. Mm, sure does. There hasn't been a reward posted for anybody in over a month. Not that we know of anyway. Mr. Dillon, I think I'll go see if there's any beer left over at the hour for games. You join me? No thanks, Chester. Okay, sir. I'll see you later. Yeah, sure. And this one. Well, hello. Tell me, is it all right by my horse here? Of course it is. Well, sometimes they don't like strangers being too bold. Well, there's mostly strangers in, don't. It's a pretty big town. There's a lot about dogs. Good or bad? Bad, mostly. No offense to you. Well, I don't own dogs. I'll buy you a beer. Well, I was just going into the hour for games here. No, fella feels funny when he don't know nobody in place. Oh, I've been that way many a time. Where are you from anyway? Colorado territory. A lot of country out there. Sure is. Botenter? Wait a minute. Sure. Hello, Chester. Hello, Sam. Now, what'll it be, stranger? We'd like two beers, please. You must be buying. Yeah, I am. Why? You don't look like you got no more than the price of two beers on you. Oh, don't mind saying, Mr. He gets spells like this. That's all right. It's all right, he says. And if it wasn't all right. Well, I heard these saddle bums that ride 100 miles to a fine saloon and then order a glass of beer. One thing I'll say for the Texans, they may cause a little trouble now and then, but they drink right. Well, I don't take whiskey myself, but I'll buy you one, mister. Well, beers, good enough for me. Sam, you stay up too late night. It's Sarge. It's Sarge, anybody waiting on a lot of riffraff? Yes, Sam. Sam, you better take it easy how you call this, fella. I had. You sure had, you know who this is? What do I care who he is? You're a rume medallion, ain't you, Mr. Rume medulla? I sure it is. I've seen him three months ago over at Colorado at La Hunter. He was right across the street and he just shot two men fastest thing ever happened. I'd sure ate the dangle with him. You really, Luma-Dellin, mister? I seen you right at the start, medulla. That day at La Hunter, you've sure built yourself a reputation since then. Oh, yeah, I've heard talk about you. You don't look like a gunman, though. You're act like one of the only said he was real soft talking and polite. I'm proud to know you, medulla. My name is Casey. How do you do, Mr. Casey? Mr. Casey. Imagine Luma-Dellin calling me Mr. Casey. Say, I sure would like to buy you a drink. No, wait a minute, Casey. I sort of hold this man in the polity. The drinks will be on the house, okay? Well, that's kind of your bartender. Sure, sure. I just want you to feel welcome here, any time. Mr. Medellin, how come you're wearing your gun in the holster now? I always heard you tired of it losing in your belt. I can handle it both ways. Maybe you thought people wouldn't recognize you so fast wearing it different. It kind of marks a man right off carrying his gun as belt. Yeah, yeah, I guess it does. Say, I, I, I'm sure proud to know you. I never got real acquainted with a man of your breed before. My pleasure. Money, you sure are polite, Mr. Medellin? No need to be otherwise, I figured. Well, one thing, you make a lot of friends mighty fast, and I guess that's easy for a man like you. Sometimes. Sometimes it is. Well, let's move over to the table, gentlemen. We'll have our beer there. Sam? Sam, Mr. Medellin wants drinks brought to a table. You bet. Be right there. Mr. Medellin? Mr. Medellin? Yeah, what is it, Chester? Say, I've been looking all over for you. Oh, trouble? Notia, but the short could be. Did you ever hear of Lou Medellin? Is he in town? Yes, sir. He was right in the alifargand there about a hour ago. I had a beer with him. Well, what's he doing in Dodge? You find that out? Well, he didn't say, Mr. Medellin, but he is about the nicest, brightest fellow you ever met. All I've heard about him is he started killing people a few months ago, up in Colorado territory. Yes, sir. He's a gunman, all right. Case is I'm in a fight and a hunter. He's with him right now. Case is a fool, Chester. Don't you be? No, sir. It's just that I never met nobody like him. Oh, he's so quiet and easy going. Sure. I think I'll have a talk with him, Chester. Come on. Say, you think he's here looking for trouble, Mr. Dylan? Mine like that's always looking for trouble. No, yes, I guess that's true, all right. That's him sitting right over there, Casey. I've got three more days here in town. And four I quit La Hunt, I said to him, I want to know sure that hello there, Marshall. I guess Chester told you who this is. Is his Lou Medellin, Marshall. Hello, Medellin. Greatest gunman in Colorado territory since Clay Allison went to New Mexico. Yeah, I've heard a little about you, Medellin. Pretty new at this game, aren't you? Yes, sir. Pretty new. Casey didn't mention it, but my name's Dylan. I'm the U.S. Marshall. I represent the law in Dodge. Let know your Marshall, Dylan. Are you planning to stay here long? Well, I don't make plans much, Marshall. I thought maybe you were here for some reason. Oh, no. No reason. None I can think of anyway. I see. Yeah, I'd hate to be in your shoes. You're trying to run a little Medellin out of Dodge. I told Chester that you're a fool, Casey. Now I'm telling you, Medellin's a friend of mine. You better talk easy to me. Shut up, Casey. Medellin, this is just what I came to tell you. Trouble breeds are on the man like you. Somehow it can't be helped. And I'm hired to keep trouble out of Dodge. Don't worry about me, Marshall. I'm not worried about you. No, sir, ain't nobody going to take Lou Medellin. As there is, no matter how good he is, somebody will kill him one day. That always happens sooner or later. You may be, Marshall. Maybe. If he starts any trouble, there's nothing to worry about, Marshall. Don't you tell him a man like you ain't afraid of him, Medellin? Tell him. I think he knows it. Don't you, Marshall? I'm an old hand at this game, Medellin. You're new. But if you live long enough, you'll find out that being afraid isn't what counts. No? Well, what does worrying about it, the way you're worrying right now? I have a feeling you've been playing lucky so far, Medellin. But don't count on it last. I know what I'm doing, Marshall. What are you doing in Dodge, Medellin? I wanted to see the town. Isn't that all right? Yeah, that's all right. But the first sign of trouble and you're through here. Sure, Marshall. Sure. [Music] If your family's getting weary of the same old breakfast cereal every morning, time to retire it and introduce them to new sugar crinkles. Say new sugar crinkles is the sugar rice treat that's just right sweet. And I'm here to tell you, sugar crinkles make breakfast more fun than a circus. Gold and crisp nuggets of sugar-coated rice and every nugget in your breakfast bowl, just right sweet. Forget your experience with sugar-coated cereals that seem too sweet and with others that don't seem sweet enough. Treat yourself and your favorite family to new sugar crinkles at breakfast time and snack time too. All your breakfast are at night. You let sugar crinkle, sugar crinkle, caffy tea, sugar ice cream, just right sweet, with milk but a breakfast jar. That's a fact from the pack, oh boy, caffy tea, just right sweet, sugar crinkle. Now back to gun smoke. I'd seen a lot of gunmen and killers in my time and some of them were mighty peculiar people but the strangest I'd ever run across was blue medallum. It wasn't his quiet, polite manner that bothered me but the feeling I got that he wasn't very sure of himself or of what he was doing. I didn't see him again that day or the next until a long toward evening. I was sitting in Doc's office when Chester came up and told me he'd heard Ab Fisher was in town. I'd known Fisher some years back and I had heard a lot about him since. So I sat out at once to find him. Having one gunman around was bad enough but having two men in certain trouble. You're going to look in the Texas Trail, Mr. Dylan? I might as well try it first as closest. Yes, sir. Oh, why does everything have to happen at once? Nothing's happened yet, Chester. See him? No. There's a little McCallon over there. Well, he's sitting with Mr. Dylan. Yeah, I'll stay here, Chester, and keep your eyes open up. I'll tell you what I'll do. Oh, hello, man. Hello, Kitty. Hi, Dylan. Pull up a chair, Marshal. I'll thank you. You look worried about something, Matt. Maybe it's because I'm sitting with his girl. You're sitting with me because you got the price of a drink, mister. That's not very nice of you, Kitty. Never mind, Madallon. Tell me, you know I'm a fisher. I'm a fisher. No, I don't, Marshal. Ever heard of him? Never even heard of him. Good. So long. Good-bye. You sure worried about something? I know he is. Ah, don't pay any attention to him, Kitty. Have another drink? Where'd you get all the money? You didn't have much last night. Casey over there lent me some. Still mine gets you. I've heard that story before too. Who's this? I never saw him before. So you're Lou Madallon. Who are you? I have a fisher. Oh, I'm beginning to understand this. You gentlemen, excuse me. What do you want, Fisher? Told me you're in town. Thought I'd like to meet you. Oh, well, I'm glad to know you. I heard about you in Denver. Oh, sure, sure. They say you're pretty fast. Yeah, I guess I am. A dilemma that makes me uncomfortable to be around a man who thinks he's better than I am. Well, don't feel that way. Here, I'll buy you a drink. Put your money on the table. All right? There it is. And there's mine. I... I don't understand. One of us gets four drinks. The one that lives. What? Drama, Dylan, go on, go on. No, wait, listen. I will. You're killing him. You killed Lou Madallon. He ain't dead yet. But he didn't even draw. He never even tried. He has a chance. He lives. I'll give him another one anytime. Right now, I'm going to have me four quick drinks. Hold it up. Matt Dylan. Well, so it is. Don't try anything. Why should I, Matt? You're under arrest, Ab. What for? The killer of Lou Madallon. They say you'd rule first. He was kind of pokey about it, and I had to. But you can't arrest me, Matt. It's murder, Ab. I guess you haven't heard. Lou Madallon's got a price on his head. He wanted in Denver for a shoot in a few citizens while he was robbing a bank. Dead or alive, Matt. I'll get $1,000 for this. Is that true? That's true. You're no good anymore, Ab, but at least you never tried to lie your way out of anything I know of. If it wasn't true, Matt, I'd have tried to shoot you. I'll tell a graph of other. But meanwhile, you'll have to sleep in jail. Sure, Matt. Same as the price of a room. Okay, so they don't stand there. Got them a doll on over the docks. Here it is, Mr. Dylan. They finally answered your telegraph and add pictures, right? $1,000 for Lou Madallon, better alive than it's time for the sheriff up in Denver. Will I tell Fisher about it? I know. A lot of him away though. He isn't worried anyway. I'm going to go up the docks and see if Madallon's still alive. Yes. How is he, Doc? Oh, oh, well. He's alive, Matt. That's not for long. Can he talk? Oh, he can talk all right, but when he goes, he'll go fast. There's nothing more I can do for him. Where have you got him in the back room? I thought he'd be quiet over there. Come in with me, Doc. Marshall Dylan's here, Madallon? Hello, Marshall. How you feeling, Madallon? Poorly. I ain't going to make it, Marshall. That probably shot me up bad. Yeah. Uh, Madallon, I want to ask you something about last night. Oh, then you found out. No, I haven't found out, but maybe you'll tell me. Why didn't you draw on that, Fisher? I was too scared, like he said. I tried to tell him about everything, but he shot me before I could talk. That doesn't make sense. How could you have killed all the men that say you have acting the way you do? Marshall, I never killed a man in my life. What? No, sir. I'm just your poor cowboy. I got fired in my life job, and I thought maybe I'd find something to do around here. What are you talking about? It's a truth. I ran into them fellows at the bar. They thought I was a big gun, and they gave me a lot of respect, Marshall. I never had no respect before from nobody. Oh, oh, I love. What is your name? Koots. W. Koots. W. Koots. W. Koots. I thought something was wrong. Yes, I look like that little medallion, don't I? You're full casey anyway. But I sure couldn't act like them. I'm in bad shape, Marshall. I'm sorry, Koots. It's all right. First time in my life, I got no respect. First time in my life, I got no respect. Well, he's dead, right? Now, be Kootso. Poor devil. Yes, he's dead. He's kind of sad, right? Yeah. It's going to be kind of sad for Ab Fisher, too. Now, I got to go tell him that he killed an innocent man, and he'll probably hang for it. He's going to be mighty disappointed. In just a moment, we'll tell you about next week's adventure on gun smoke. If you want to be a real good scout, mom, tell you what to do. See that your whole tribe sits down to post-toasties for breakfast in the morning. What a way to start the day for every big and little Indian in your wigwamp.
