The Peace Officer

Around Dodge City and in the territory on West, there's just one way to handle the killers and the spoilers. And that's where the U.S. Marshal and the smell of gun smoke. 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 chancey job that it makes a man watchful. And a little lonely. Wait, can the chester? If you put any more chili powder on those eggs, you'll go up and smoke. I like them good and hot, Doc.

Oh, I have them to fix, too. They call me some more coffee, will you, Doc? Oh, yeah, it's of course, my dear. Yeah, thank you. By the way, did Matt say when he'd be back?

Well, he told me at the end of the week. After all, Doc, it's a two-day ride to Taskoza, and he didn't leave here till two days. I only asked a simple question, Chester. In any way, how was I supposed to know? Nobody ever tells me anything.

They don't have to. Or you snoop around. Snoop around? I snoop! What's Mac doing in Taskoza, Kitty? Talking to the man that sent for him, what? What man, Kitty? The Taskoza Citizens Committee. Something to do with hiring a new sheriff for the town.

I guess I figured mad at nowhere to find one. Higher is sheriff. What in the world for? Well, the man they got a sheriff now is no good. The decent citizens can't get rid of him.
