Transcript

Brought to you by L&M, the modern cigarettes that let 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 a U.S. marshal and the smell of 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 at a little lonely. It's a good thing we packed in all that stove wood, Mr. Dillon, couldn't need plenty of it for a mornin'.

Yeah, it'd be a real cold night, it looks like. That snow keeps on there, so it's gonna be two foot deep on the level and four in the draw. If you don't take your boots off that stove, you're going to have two feet on the bare ground, Chester.

What are you talking about? Well, your soles are starting to smoke. Now, take them off! Mike, I thought I smelled something burning in here. Stoves red hot. Well, at least my feet's warm for the first time in two days.

Yeah, maybe I'll rub my boots with Talah. The leather order, silk it up real good, being too hot that way. Team Demesh! Hello, Kitty. Come on, Eddie. Oh, that's nice. Come over here and stand by the stove and burn with a chest.

I can't stay, Matt. I got to get back to the lawn branch. Ah, big crowd tonight. Yeah, but quiet one. Men get sentimental around Christmas time. Oh, I'm that way myself, Miss Cutey. So am I, Tester.
