Brought to you by L&M, the modern cigarette that lets you get full, exciting flavor through the modern miracle of the pure white miracle tip. Live modern, smoke L&M. 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 the U.S. Marshal and the smell of gun smoke.
Smoke, starring William Conrad, the Transchroid 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. Morning, Dr. Clay.
Oh, good morning, Nielsen. You want to see me? No, I never wanted anything less than to call you in here. You got bad news. Yeah, it's been bearing down on me for two days. But you've got to know, Nielsen.
I'm not gonna make it? No. Sooner or later, that bullet in you is gonna kill you. Are you sure? Yes, sir, I'm sure. Well, I feel good enough, Doc. You could be wrong, couldn't you?
Well, I wish I was. I don't know if I'm right in telling you about it, but I treated the same kind of case of childhood. And the bullet kept moving, just like yours. And there was no way to stop it.
How long did it last? Not as long as you have. You've been going two months since the fight. And how much longer I got that? There was no way to know. Another month? Maybe longer?
