What happens
Marshal Wild Bill Hickok and his deputy Jingles escort Dr. Percy Hummingbird, an engineer sent by the government to survey the unexplored Thunder River. Warned by a stranger at the riverbank to turn back, the party heads downstream into deep canyons. Their boat is attacked and the travelers are set upon by hidden gunmen, and they find themselves in danger on the river. The episode is part of the Wild Bill Hickok radio series, first broadcast on February 19, 1954, with Guy Madison and Andy Devine in the lead roles.

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.
