## Resource

Fort Laramie presents “The Buffalo Hunters,” episode 33 of the CBS frontier drama, originally broadcast September 9, 1956. Raymond Burr stars as Captain Lee Quince in this episode written by Kathleen Hite and directed by Norman Macdonnell. Quince investigates the wasteful slaughter and skinning of buffalo near reservation country, where the hunters’ actions threaten to ignite a larger conflict. As warnings are ignored, the captain and his men must move quickly to prevent further destruction on the frontier. Fort Laramie presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
