Gun smoke. Brought to you by L&M filters. This is it. L&M is best. Stands out from all the rest. 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 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. 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, and it makes a man watchful, and a little lonely. Huh? Oh, I hear Matt.

Alright. How are you, Kitty? Where'd you get the crowd? Oh, some trail herd just came in. Circle B, I think. Oh. Come on upstairs and have a drink with me. I gotta get clear here for a few minutes.

Alright, let's go. Yeah, they are kind of loud, aren't they? Sure. Do you ever get fed up with it, Mac? Well, fed up with what? Everything. Ha ha ha. Come on in. Oh, make yourself down.

Ah, thank you. What's bothering you, Kitty? Nothing special. Just a whim-wam as I guess. Ah. Poor as a drink. Oh, okay. You know, Zunchers have fed up. Why don't you get out of it? Go back east.

Get married and settle down. Nice quiet bank clerk. A tub of wash and a cook stove. And, uh... Kids. I like kids. What's that, drink? Yeah. Yeah. I'm not getting out neither of you. So let's live always though.

Oh, if that's some drunken herders, they'll help me out. Yes? You sit downstairs and Marshall's up here. Oh, come in. Ma? What's on your mind, fella? I thought maybe you could give me some information, Marshall.
