What happens
Jane East, a Boston woman, travels west by train to take over the Bar J.E. Ranch near Star City, Texas, which she has inherited from her grandfather. Her cousin Bob runs the ranch, but its cattle keep vanishing, and the crew doubts that an eastern woman can manage it. Jane arrives and meets the hands, including Baldy and Bill Hartman, and begins to look into the losses. The episode is part of the All Star Western Theatre series, first broadcast on August 11, 1946, and features Jean Rogers in the lead role.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
