Summary
Fort Laramie presents “The Woman at Horse Creek,” episode 35 of the CBS Radio frontier drama, originally broadcast September 23, 1956. Raymond Burr stars as Captain Lee Quince, with Vic Perrin as Sergeant Goerss; the episode was written by Kathleen Hite and produced and directed by Norman Macdonnell. On patrol through the isolated Horse Creek country near the Nebraska border, Quince and his men encounter a frontier widow facing an impossible burden alone. Virginia Christine guest stars as Mrs. Dennis in this somber story of hardship, loyalty, and the difficult choices of life far from home. 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.
