Gunsmoke presents “Sarah’s Search,” episode 359 of the classic CBS radio series, originally broadcast February 22, 1959. Written by Marian Clark and produced and directed by Norman Macdonnell, the episode stars William Conrad as Marshal Matt Dillon. On the road toward Dodge City, Matt and Chester Proudfoot meet Sarah Howell, a lone traveler from Wichita whose broken buggy has left her stranded.
