What happens
Marshal Matt Dillon and his deputy Chester investigate the shooting of Nate Tatum, a man who was killed in the street in Dodge City. Nate had been about to leave for California, and a whiskey drummer and a woman named Kitty are among those they question. Gunsmoke is a radio western from CBS, and this episode aired on February 5, 1961. William Conrad plays Dillon, with Parley Baer as Chester and Howard McNear as Doc. Dillon speaks with the people around Nate, trying to learn who had a reason to want him dead and what the shooting was about.

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.
