Written by John Meston and produced by Norman Macdonnell, this production reworks Meston’s earlier 1953 Gunsmoke script, “Kick Me.” In Dodge City and the surrounding cattle-trail country, aging Native American scout Tobile seeks work after years of Army service. But a letter meant to help him instead ignites a bitter conflict of honor, prejudice, and revenge, drawing Marshal Matt Dillon into a dangerous dispute. William Conrad stars as Dillon, with Parley Baer, Georgia Ellis, and Howard McNear. Gunsmoke 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.
