Speaker 1 (00:09):
Gun Smoke brought to you by L and M Filters.
This is it. L and M is best stands out
from all the rest around Odge City and in the
territory on West. There's just one way to handle the
killers and the spoilers, and that's with the US Marshall
(00:32):
and the Smell of gun Smoke. Gun Smoke, starring William
(00:54):
Conrad transcrog story of the violence that moved west with
young America and the story of a man will move
with it.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I'm that man, Matt Dillon, United States Marshall, the first
man they look for and the last they want to meet.
It's a chancy job, and it makes a man watchful
and a little lonely.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Her getting off stage already, mister Dillon's here's miss Kitty.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
She got down first, that's sober. An hour later, I
wonder what held him up.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Oh, sometimes them guver just won't bother to her.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
They can be awful stubborn.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Well, anyway, it got here her, hope.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Miss Kitty enjoyed her visit. Neilsworth, you look fine, don't she.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Who's that she's talking to? Mister Bucker.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
I didn't know he'd been out of Tomas John Now.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
That's why the bank's been closed. Chesting mister Barcan won't
trust anybody running at the fee isn't around now?
Speaker 5 (02:09):
Hold is kitty oh Chester? How on that?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Wow'd you have a good trip?
Speaker 5 (02:13):
Kiddy?
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Well? Yeh hear how mister back.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
So, Marshall, we were held up and robbed?
Speaker 2 (02:17):
What held up?
Speaker 6 (02:18):
Back at rocky Ford? Matt lone bandit. He took the
box and he robbed.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
At the Bodkin here took everything I had, over three hundred.
Speaker 5 (02:25):
Dollars in cash.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Anybody hurt?
Speaker 6 (02:27):
Shotgun right.
Speaker 7 (02:27):
I didn't think they were caring enough of the treasure
box to be worth fighting for.
Speaker 6 (02:31):
Because he didn't care what happened to the passengers.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
How much was in the box?
Speaker 6 (02:35):
Only about five hundred dollars? The driver said, what about the.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Two other passengers? And you, kiddy, didn't he rob you?
Speaker 4 (02:41):
He didn't take a thing of mine, He singled me off.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Marshall must have known I'm a banker.
Speaker 7 (02:46):
Made mister Bodkin put his coat on the ground, and
then everybody had to throw everything they were carrying onto it.
Speaker 6 (02:50):
But all he took was what mister Bodkin had.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
I don't understand it at all.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Marshall.
Speaker 6 (02:56):
He bothered me, Matt, you should have seen him, gentleman.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Like any idea who it was?
Speaker 1 (03:02):
He never spoke at all, Marshall. He used his six
gun to tell us what to do.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
What did you ever see him before?
Speaker 7 (03:07):
You couldn't see him. He was wearing a flower sack
over his head with eye hold cut in it, and
the rest of him was covered with a.
Speaker 6 (03:13):
Long linen duster. Did you'll clever that banded?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Well? There must be something. What kind of a horse
was he riding?
Speaker 6 (03:20):
I never even looked at him?
Speaker 5 (03:21):
I did.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
It was a mighty poor horse too.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
It was a big guilding, Marshal, with the four white
stockings in the blazes.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Okay, we'll look for it as soon as I talk
to the others.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
There's something strange about this business, Marshal. Why should I
be the only passenger he robbed?
Speaker 2 (03:35):
How if I can find him? I'd like to ask
him that myself, mister Buggan. Neither the driver, nor the
shotgun messenger, nor the other two passengers, who turned out
to be a couple of homesteaders, could give us any
more information on the bandit. So Chester and I saddled
(03:58):
up and rode out the rocky floor. We found nothing there.
Speaker 8 (04:03):
Hm.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
About a half a mile further on where he spotted
the bay gelding standing alone and unsaddled. I put a
rope on him, and then we got down to stretch
our legs and take a closer look.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Mister bucking ride if you don't sure he might have
a horse.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Yeah, he's good enough, Chester, good fresh.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
You mean he's put that band in the foot already.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
A Chester, m come in? What look at that, Brian?
Speaker 5 (04:39):
What that little man? Miller's lazy am.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
And that's Miller's horse, not the outlaws. Nobody but a
fool would ride a crow bait like that to hold
up a stage. And this man's no fool.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Well, but everybody saw him on his horse.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
He borrowed him Chester, just long enough for the hold
up that way. Nobody saw his real mount.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Well, now, ain't that smart? Hm?
Speaker 2 (05:01):
He hit out that way, yeah, toward the ruin, and
I'm not even gonna follow him. He's not now. Once
he hits the river, he swim downstream or a cattle crossing,
and the tracks really lost. And he's got about a
four hours start on this anyway.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Yeah, looks like he's gonna get clean.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
Away on it.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Chester, M did uh you have a here of Teddy
Blue Fisher? Teddy Blue Fisher, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Not sure, I ain't.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
And he's got quite a reputation. I'm uh surprised you
never heard of him. Why?
Speaker 4 (05:36):
What's he's the famous four.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
For robbing the rich and sparring the poor, for being
quite a gentleman about the whole business. And nobody's been
able to get enough evidence to charge him with anything
that hold up in court?
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Why not?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I like today we haven't got anything on him.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
WHOA.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Maybe it wasn't him as the.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Dying I'm only guess in Chester, but it was Fisher
or somebody who works like I can be held up
the stage, took the box and robbed the only rich
man on it. And of course he wouldn't take anything
from a lady.
Speaker 9 (06:07):
Mm.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
I'm gracious if I went to the trouble at stop
his dage, I'd take everything he don't sounds as smart
a bro.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Now that's part of his game. Chester. Everybody in the
country will soon hear about him, and there won't be
a poor family anywhere that won't hide him and feed
him and give him anything he needs.
Speaker 10 (06:26):
He's got him all standing up for him.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
You mean, hum, yeah, And that's the way it works.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
You know something that you're doing right.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
He sounds kind of like that green Indian they had
over in one of them foreign lands one time. What
you know, Robin Head You remember him.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Robin hood Chester And he wasn't an Indian. Now that
your rights ted. He Blue Fisher works exactly the same way.

Nothing will happened to you, not around here, It won't.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
You will go free as a bird.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
You can run around like Teddy Blue Fisher and hold up.
Speaker 12 (09:19):
Stages and ever he no trouble at all, not from
the law.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Whit I'm gont a doctor? Who told you about Teddy
Blue Fisher?
Speaker 12 (09:26):
Teeters did at the barber shop, he said, everybody knows
about him.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Now now I expected that, But you've got more to
tell me. Docs, I'll go ahead.
Speaker 12 (09:33):
I don't know why I bother, but since I'm already here,
I guess I might as well.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Wow, Well a Fisher got a haircut just before I did. Man,
he did? You're sure he told Teeters who he was.
Well he's not wasting any time. What else did he
tell Teters, but.
Speaker 5 (09:49):
Said he was gonna stay here and gamble for a
few days.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
He's over the long branch starting now.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Now he's got eight hundred dollars for a stake. Well,
you can't prove where he got again. Ah, but there's
something I can do. Look, Doc, his whole games based
on stealing from the rich. If I can stop it,
maybe I can show him up for what he is. Well,
you mean you think he's a fake ill that you
ever hear of any outlaw? Admit, he's nothing but a
common thief, and a thief will steal from anybody, Doc,
(10:17):
Rich harpooor if he has to? Well, how are you
gonna stop him? Well, for one thing, I'm gonna put
two shot gunmen on every stage that goes out of here. Man,
it'll shoot.
Speaker 12 (10:26):
Oh that's a good idea, that's a good id o.
Oh but I hear Fishes quite a gunman himself.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Yeah, I know, Doc. Now i'd throw him in jail
without evidence, but it only makes him a martyr and
people that think more of him than ever. Now I
gotta out smart him somehow, if you can, Yeah, yeah,
if I can, all man, Hello, Kitty, uh is that kitty, Hm,
(11:21):
I heard the Teddy Blue Fisher was in here.
Speaker 7 (11:24):
Oh he just left, said he'd be back in a minute.
He's quite a fellow.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Man, Yeah, he sure is.
Speaker 6 (11:31):
Do you see what he did?
Speaker 1 (11:32):
No?
Speaker 5 (11:32):
What?
Speaker 6 (11:33):
He broke the faroh bank one over a thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
All that won't help? What do you mean all the
money he's got now he won't have to work in
his usual trade. He can loaf around for a long time.
Speaker 6 (11:45):
No harm in that is the now.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
That makes the law look pretty foolish, kady. And besides,
he's gotta be in action before I can stop him.
Speaker 6 (11:54):
You still think he held up the stage, don't you.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Well that's his way of doing things.
Speaker 6 (12:00):
You're gonna run him.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Out of town now, i'd sure like to.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
Well, now's your chance here he comes?
Speaker 5 (12:11):
Why it right now? Miss kidding?
Speaker 6 (12:13):
I was a man here who wants to meet you first?
Speaker 2 (12:15):
How do you do, sir? I'm Teddy Bluefisher, I'm Matt Dylan.
Pleasure's mine, sir, that's right. The pleasure is all yours.
Coming from anyone else, I'd take that real bad. But
I can understand your feeling. But we know where we stand,
don't And it's too bad.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
I would like to be.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Friends, And now you're a thief Fisher, and you're probably
a murderer the food.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
That's a lie. I never shot a man in my life,
unless you tried to shoot me.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
To kill a man who's trying to protect his properties,
murder the way I figure it.
Speaker 5 (12:51):
Oh, I'm not going to argue with you, Marshall.
Speaker 8 (12:53):
No.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
I didn't think you'd be dumb enough to That'd be
admitting what you are, wouldn't it.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
People talk, talk, make up stories. I have never done
anything wrong.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
How long are you planning on staying at Dodge, Marshall?
Speaker 5 (13:08):
I never plan, but I'm living pretty well in Dodge.
I kind of like it.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Yeah, so I hear.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Only trouble right now is finding somebody willing to buck
me gambling if my luck's been showing too much.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
And I'm sure you'll find somebody Fisher.
Speaker 5 (13:22):
I thank you kindly, Marshall. I hope too. It reminds
me I want to talk to a man over there
about it, miss kiddy. If you'll excuse me, I'll be
right back. S h I'll buy you a drink too, Marshall.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
No, and some other tuh kiddy huh.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
I want you to do something for me. Yeah, you

to Fisher, tell him you think maybe ventor buckym at Ferrell,
tell him Vince the one man in Dodge who's got
the bank roll and who's enough of a gambler to
try it.
Speaker 6 (13:57):
Matt, you know, since Vent went straight, he barely enough
to live on.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Well, don't tell Fisher that.
Speaker 6 (14:05):

Speaker 13 (15:02):
But Marshall, I kept my word. I swear I had.
I was as far as I know you have, and
good you had me worried there. You remember I told
you that if you went straight and quit dealing crooked,
I'd give you a chance.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
You could have put me in jail the way things were, Marshall. Now,
you're the most accomplished man with cards I ever saw.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Event, No, not anymore. I'm no better than any other man.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Now tell me something. You know how to win dealing? Pharaoh?
Speaker 13 (15:28):
Oh, I used to take him something fier, said Pharaoh.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
It was slow. How much money you got men?
Speaker 4 (15:33):
A couple of hundred?
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Why is that enough for you to take about two
thousand off of man?
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Two thousand?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Dealing? Crooked?
Speaker 1 (15:43):
You been drinking or something, Marshall.

you at the Long Branch right now? You go down
there and take him. When you've done it, you come
back to my office. I'll be waiting for you.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
He's near midnight, mister Dylon.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
The event must be rusty.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Maybe he's taking his time, so it's to get the
full pleasure out of him.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Now they better take his time. Fisher catches on to him.
There's gonna be trouble.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
Want me to go over and see what's happening.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
Now we better stay out of there, Chester, both of us.
Speaker 4 (16:33):
There comes somebody.
Speaker 5 (16:39):
Hey, it's Ben.
Speaker 13 (16:43):
How'd you make out vent lack of bear in spring Chester.
But Marshall, you said a couple of thousand dollars he
had near twenty five.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
Hundred on him there.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
It is. Ah, that's a lot of money, isn't it. Oh,
I've fleeced men for more than that in my time.
I never saw a crook yet that didn't like to
brag about it.
Speaker 4 (17:02):
Now, Marshall, you made me a crook.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
And I wasn't too hard though, was it.
Speaker 5 (17:06):
Vince?
Speaker 2 (17:06):
But you're that fine?
Speaker 1 (17:08):
What are you gonna do with all that money?
Speaker 2 (17:10):
And I'm gonna see that you get some other event
when the time comes, because you've earned it.
Speaker 13 (17:15):
It's none of my business, Marshall, but i'd sure like
to know what this.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Is all about. Our fisher's broken offent his vacations over it.
He's got to go back to work, Robin Rich people,
huh yeah, if he can, And.
Speaker 13 (17:26):
Don't envy you trying to catch him, Marshall. From what
I hear, most everybody in the country's on his side already.
They'll make it awful hard for it.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Sure, but I'm a gambler too.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
But.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
I'm gracious.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
If I owned the bank, I'd want it busier than this.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
I wouldn't worry about mister Bodkinchester. He makes money and
on his claws. Our wait here with you. I won't
be on oasis.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
Oh hello, Marshall.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Amen, he wanted to see me, mister buggin.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Well, I couldn't get away to come tell you, Marshall.
I thought you'd like to know right away.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
I don't know what. Well.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
I rode out to Emmitt Bauer's main ranch this morning,
wanted an appraisal on some new barns he's putting up. Yeah,
and I took two men with me, Marshall, Clint Jones
and Jeff Roberts. That gunman, you bet they are that
same bandit Marshall with the flour sacking Linen Duster tried
to surprise us at Twin.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Grove of what happened, and he put a couple.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
Of rifle shots near us from about a quarter mile away.
Speaker 4 (18:46):
Thought we'd stop and give up a guess.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
But the boys went right after him.
Speaker 10 (18:49):
Did they get him?
Speaker 5 (18:50):
No?
Speaker 9 (18:50):
No, he ran.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
He's got an awful fast horse, Marshall. They couldn't get
close enough to even identify him.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Now that's his third attempt that I hold up this week,
and his wildest.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
So what are you gonna do well.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
He comes to town most every day, mister Buggan. The
next time he rides out, I'm gonna be following him.
I think he's through trying to rob people who are
ready for him and who'll fight.

Speaker 2 (20:31):
Mid afternoon, Teddy Blue Fisher rode into Dodge. He stood
around the plaza for a couple of hours, watched the
stage pull up for Abelene with its two professionals riding shotgun,
and then, suddenly, seeming to make up his mind, he
mounted his horse and rode slowly out of town. Shortly after,
Chester and I were on his trail about ten miles north.
(20:56):
He stopped at a clump of elder and waited for dusk,
and then rode on another couple of miles to the
house of a homestead called Charlie Bowen. It was dark
when he went inside and Chester and I got down
and crept up to the place on foot.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
What do you think he's doing here, miss bill?

Uh, we'll find out.

and unsettle his horse, Chester and then slip his bridle off. Yes,

Maybe the way people have to live.
Speaker 8 (22:42):
Yeah, well, now that's why we kind of stand behind
'em man, like you, mister Fisher. And now I ain't
seeing nothing. But you take a big banker like old Bodkin.
Why he's got more money than he knows what to
do with it. It don't hurt him, nothing to lose
a little love it now and then.
Speaker 5 (22:56):
But that's true. Course, bank don't uh don't have all
the money.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
In the world.
Speaker 6 (23:03):
They don't have none of ours, and they never will.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
You don't believe in banks.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Man, No, Sarah, I wouldn't put a penny in 'em.
Speaker 5 (23:11):
That's right, smart of you here.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
Well, uh, she's like that, mister Fisher.
Speaker 8 (23:15):
She she always said our money ought to be right
where we could lay our hands on.
Speaker 5 (23:19):
It whenever we want. Why, of course somebody, duh, depends
on how much you've got. Well, we've been saving all
our lives. Must have him here? Oh eight hundred dollars?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Now to do, mister dinner tucking money Chester?
Speaker 5 (23:34):
Where do you have that eight hundred dollars? Mind?
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Uh, it's hid where? Wouldn't be right to tell nobody,
mister Fisher, it's a secret that you could tell me.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
Oh no, we can't tell nobody at all. Yes you can,
mister Fisher. What are you doing? What's it gunn for?
I just wanna know where you keep that money? Well,
you're not gonna rob us, but we're poor. I've robbed
poor people for this.
Speaker 6 (24:03):
No, no, you haven't.
Speaker 5 (24:05):
Don't pay fools. Now show me that money. You're a fake,
mister Fisher. You are alive, sure, but nobody'll ever find
it out. I'm gonna kill both of you. No, but
you can live a little longer. You show me where
that money is.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
Don't kill him, child, I won't.
Speaker 5 (24:21):
She's gonna rob I got to kill you anyways.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Now I'm going in just to stay back.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
Oh where do you all right? Hold it?
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Don't touch that gunner or buster other arm.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
Marshall, he was gonna shoot it. He was going to
kill you.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Know, what's the matter with you? I was joking, Marshall,
you had no cause to shoot me.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
You're lucky I didn't kill him.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
You should have.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Marshall, there's nothing but a murderer and a dirty common thief.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
I'd rather have him in jail, boy, and I'm public.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Was a joke. I was just fooling. I tell you,
I never harmed people like you. And you know, I
don't hardly know what it's all of a Fisher. You're finished.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Maybe some of the Robin hoods like you will be
finished too when people hear what you like, when you
think nobody's watching. Just if you tie up his arm,
he's too valuable now to bleed to death.

Her getting off stage already, mister Dillon's here's miss Kitty.

She got down first, that's sober. An hour later, I

They can be awful stubborn.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Well, anyway, it got here her, hope.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Miss Kitty enjoyed her visit. Neilsworth, you look fine, don't she.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Who's that she's talking to? Mister Bucker.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
I didn't know he'd been out of Tomas John Now.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
That's why the bank's been closed. Chesting mister Barcan won't
trust anybody running at the fee isn't around now?
Speaker 5 (02:09):
Hold is kitty oh Chester? How on that?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Wow'd you have a good trip?
Speaker 5 (02:13):
Kiddy?
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Well? Yeh hear how mister back.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
So, Marshall, we were held up and robbed?
Speaker 2 (02:17):
What held up?
Speaker 6 (02:18):
Back at rocky Ford? Matt lone bandit. He took the
box and he robbed.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
At the Bodkin here took everything I had, over three hundred.
Speaker 5 (02:25):
Dollars in cash.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Anybody hurt?
Speaker 6 (02:27):
Shotgun right.
Speaker 7 (02:27):
I didn't think they were caring enough of the treasure
box to be worth fighting for.
Speaker 6 (02:31):
Because he didn't care what happened to the passengers.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
How much was in the box?
Speaker 6 (02:35):
Only about five hundred dollars? The driver said, what about the.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Two other passengers? And you, kiddy, didn't he rob you?
Speaker 4 (02:41):
He didn't take a thing of mine, He singled me off.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Marshall must have known I'm a banker.
Speaker 7 (02:46):
Made mister Bodkin put his coat on the ground, and
then everybody had to throw everything they were carrying onto it.
Speaker 6 (02:50):
But all he took was what mister Bodkin had.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
I don't understand it at all.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Marshall.
Speaker 6 (02:56):
He bothered me, Matt, you should have seen him, gentleman.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Like any idea who it was?
Speaker 1 (03:02):
He never spoke at all, Marshall. He used his six
gun to tell us what to do.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
What did you ever see him before?
Speaker 7 (03:07):
You couldn't see him. He was wearing a flower sack
over his head with eye hold cut in it, and
the rest of him was covered with a.
Speaker 6 (03:13):
Long linen duster. Did you'll clever that banded?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Well? There must be something. What kind of a horse
was he riding?
Speaker 6 (03:20):
I never even looked at him?
Speaker 5 (03:21):
I did.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
It was a mighty poor horse too.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
It was a big guilding, Marshal, with the four white
stockings in the blazes.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Okay, we'll look for it as soon as I talk
to the others.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
There's something strange about this business, Marshal. Why should I
be the only passenger he robbed?
Speaker 2 (03:35):
How if I can find him? I'd like to ask
him that myself, mister Buggan. Neither the driver, nor the
shotgun messenger, nor the other two passengers, who turned out
to be a couple of homesteaders, could give us any
more information on the bandit. So Chester and I saddled
(03:58):
up and rode out the rocky floor. We found nothing there.
Speaker 8 (04:03):
Hm.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
About a half a mile further on where he spotted
the bay gelding standing alone and unsaddled. I put a
rope on him, and then we got down to stretch
our legs and take a closer look.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Mister bucking ride if you don't sure he might have
a horse.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Yeah, he's good enough, Chester, good fresh.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
You mean he's put that band in the foot already.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
A Chester, m come in? What look at that, Brian?
Speaker 5 (04:39):
What that little man? Miller's lazy am.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
And that's Miller's horse, not the outlaws. Nobody but a
fool would ride a crow bait like that to hold
up a stage. And this man's no fool.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Well, but everybody saw him on his horse.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
He borrowed him Chester, just long enough for the hold
up that way. Nobody saw his real mount.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Well, now, ain't that smart? Hm?
Speaker 2 (05:01):
He hit out that way, yeah, toward the ruin, and
I'm not even gonna follow him. He's not now. Once
he hits the river, he swim downstream or a cattle crossing,
and the tracks really lost. And he's got about a
four hours start on this anyway.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Yeah, looks like he's gonna get clean.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
Away on it.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Chester, M did uh you have a here of Teddy
Blue Fisher? Teddy Blue Fisher, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Not sure, I ain't.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
And he's got quite a reputation. I'm uh surprised you
never heard of him. Why?
Speaker 4 (05:36):
What's he's the famous four.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
For robbing the rich and sparring the poor, for being
quite a gentleman about the whole business. And nobody's been
able to get enough evidence to charge him with anything
that hold up in court?
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Why not?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I like today we haven't got anything on him.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
WHOA.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Maybe it wasn't him as the.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Dying I'm only guess in Chester, but it was Fisher
or somebody who works like I can be held up
the stage, took the box and robbed the only rich
man on it. And of course he wouldn't take anything
from a lady.
Speaker 9 (06:07):
Mm.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
I'm gracious if I went to the trouble at stop
his dage, I'd take everything he don't sounds as smart
a bro.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Now that's part of his game. Chester. Everybody in the
country will soon hear about him, and there won't be
a poor family anywhere that won't hide him and feed
him and give him anything he needs.
Speaker 10 (06:26):
He's got him all standing up for him.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
You mean, hum, yeah, And that's the way it works.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
You know something that you're doing right.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
He sounds kind of like that green Indian they had
over in one of them foreign lands one time. What
you know, Robin Head You remember him.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Robin hood Chester And he wasn't an Indian. Now that
your rights ted. He Blue Fisher works exactly the same way.
And outside of pure luck, I I don't know how
I'm gonna.

to throw.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Well that's all right for you, doc, you need it.
Nobody wants a shaggy medicine man cutting them open.
Speaker 12 (08:53):
Oh what about you? I suppose the dignity of the
law served best. Backup, I left molting prairie chicken chester ter.
Speaker 2 (09:02):

Yes, sir, old still doting, go a hit you.

Nothing will happened to you, not around here, It won't.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
You will go free as a bird.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
You can run around like Teddy Blue Fisher and hold up.
Speaker 12 (09:19):
Stages and ever he no trouble at all, not from
the law.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Whit I'm gont a doctor? Who told you about Teddy
Blue Fisher?
Speaker 12 (09:26):
Teeters did at the barber shop, he said, everybody knows
about him.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Now now I expected that, But you've got more to
tell me. Docs, I'll go ahead.
Speaker 12 (09:33):
I don't know why I bother, but since I'm already here,
I guess I might as well.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Wow, Well a Fisher got a haircut just before I did. Man,
he did? You're sure he told Teeters who he was.
Well he's not wasting any time. What else did he
tell Teters, but.
Speaker 5 (09:49):
Said he was gonna stay here and gamble for a
few days.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
He's over the long branch starting now.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Now he's got eight hundred dollars for a stake. Well,
you can't prove where he got again. Ah, but there's
something I can do. Look, Doc, his whole games based
on stealing from the rich. If I can stop it,
maybe I can show him up for what he is. Well,
you mean you think he's a fake ill that you
ever hear of any outlaw? Admit, he's nothing but a
common thief, and a thief will steal from anybody, Doc,
(10:17):
Rich harpooor if he has to? Well, how are you
gonna stop him? Well, for one thing, I'm gonna put
two shot gunmen on every stage that goes out of here. Man,
it'll shoot.
Speaker 12 (10:26):
Oh that's a good idea, that's a good id o.
Oh but I hear Fishes quite a gunman himself.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Yeah, I know, Doc. Now i'd throw him in jail
without evidence, but it only makes him a martyr and
people that think more of him than ever. Now I
gotta out smart him somehow, if you can, Yeah, yeah,
if I can, all man, Hello, Kitty, uh is that kitty, Hm,
(11:21):
I heard the Teddy Blue Fisher was in here.
Speaker 7 (11:24):
Oh he just left, said he'd be back in a minute.
He's quite a fellow.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Man, Yeah, he sure is.
Speaker 6 (11:31):
Do you see what he did?
Speaker 1 (11:32):
No?
Speaker 5 (11:32):
What?
Speaker 6 (11:33):
He broke the faroh bank one over a thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
All that won't help? What do you mean all the
money he's got now he won't have to work in
his usual trade. He can loaf around for a long time.
Speaker 6 (11:45):
No harm in that is the now.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
That makes the law look pretty foolish, kady. And besides,
he's gotta be in action before I can stop him.
Speaker 6 (11:54):
You still think he held up the stage, don't you.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Well that's his way of doing things.
Speaker 6 (12:00):
You're gonna run him.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Out of town now, i'd sure like to.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
Well, now's your chance here he comes?
Speaker 5 (12:11):
Why it right now? Miss kidding?
Speaker 6 (12:13):
I was a man here who wants to meet you first?
Speaker 2 (12:15):
How do you do, sir? I'm Teddy Bluefisher, I'm Matt Dylan.
Pleasure's mine, sir, that's right. The pleasure is all yours.
Coming from anyone else, I'd take that real bad. But
I can understand your feeling. But we know where we stand,
don't And it's too bad.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
I would like to be.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Friends, And now you're a thief Fisher, and you're probably
a murderer the food.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
That's a lie. I never shot a man in my life,
unless you tried to shoot me.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
To kill a man who's trying to protect his properties,
murder the way I figure it.
Speaker 5 (12:51):
Oh, I'm not going to argue with you, Marshall.
Speaker 8 (12:53):
No.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
I didn't think you'd be dumb enough to That'd be
admitting what you are, wouldn't it.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
People talk, talk, make up stories. I have never done
anything wrong.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
How long are you planning on staying at Dodge, Marshall?
Speaker 5 (13:08):
I never plan, but I'm living pretty well in Dodge.
I kind of like it.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Yeah, so I hear.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Only trouble right now is finding somebody willing to buck
me gambling if my luck's been showing too much.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
And I'm sure you'll find somebody Fisher.
Speaker 5 (13:22):
I thank you kindly, Marshall. I hope too. It reminds
me I want to talk to a man over there
about it, miss kiddy. If you'll excuse me, I'll be
right back. S h I'll buy you a drink too, Marshall.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
No, and some other tuh kiddy huh.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
I want you to do something for me. Yeah, you
know Vent, Butler, of course. Okay, Now, when you're talking
to Fisher, tell him you think maybe ventor buckym at Ferrell,
tell him Vince the one man in Dodge who's got
the bank roll and who's enough of a gambler to
try it.
Speaker 6 (13:57):
Matt, you know, since Vent went straight, he barely enough
to live on.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Well, don't tell Fisher that.
Speaker 6 (14:05):
I don't understand it, but I'll do it.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Thanks kidding, right, I'll have Vent here in about a half.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
Hour, Marshall, Dillon, It's okay, Vent Now, Marshall.

Speaker 4 (14:45):
But ain't that you?
Speaker 2 (14:48):
You surprise me? And I uh think I'm gonna surprise
you more. But uh let's go inside.
Speaker 4 (14:54):
N sure, sure, come on in.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Event. You remember what happened a year ago. I sure do.
Speaker 13 (15:02):
But Marshall, I kept my word. I swear I had.
I was as far as I know you have, and
good you had me worried there. You remember I told
you that if you went straight and quit dealing crooked,
I'd give you a chance.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
You could have put me in jail the way things were, Marshall. Now,
you're the most accomplished man with cards I ever saw.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Event, No, not anymore. I'm no better than any other man.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Now tell me something. You know how to win dealing? Pharaoh?
Speaker 13 (15:28):
Oh, I used to take him something fier, said Pharaoh.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
It was slow. How much money you got men?
Speaker 4 (15:33):
A couple of hundred?
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Why is that enough for you to take about two
thousand off of man?
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Two thousand?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Dealing? Crooked?
Speaker 1 (15:43):
You been drinking or something, Marshall.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
I'm asking a favor of you event.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
You really mean it.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Don't you? Teddy Bluefisher? What Teddy's setting him up for
you at the Long Branch right now? You go down
there and take him. When you've done it, you come
back to my office. I'll be waiting for you.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
He's near midnight, mister Dylon.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
The event must be rusty.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Maybe he's taking his time, so it's to get the
full pleasure out of him.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Now they better take his time. Fisher catches on to him.
There's gonna be trouble.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
Want me to go over and see what's happening.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
Now we better stay out of there, Chester, both of us.
Speaker 4 (16:33):
There comes somebody.
Speaker 5 (16:39):
Hey, it's Ben.
Speaker 13 (16:43):
How'd you make out vent lack of bear in spring Chester.
But Marshall, you said a couple of thousand dollars he
had near twenty five.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
Hundred on him there.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
It is. Ah, that's a lot of money, isn't it. Oh,
I've fleeced men for more than that in my time.
I never saw a crook yet that didn't like to
brag about it.
Speaker 4 (17:02):
Now, Marshall, you made me a crook.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
And I wasn't too hard though, was it.
Speaker 5 (17:06):
Vince?
Speaker 2 (17:06):
But you're that fine?
Speaker 1 (17:08):
What are you gonna do with all that money?
Speaker 2 (17:10):
And I'm gonna see that you get some other event
when the time comes, because you've earned it.
Speaker 13 (17:15):
It's none of my business, Marshall, but i'd sure like
to know what this.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Is all about. Our fisher's broken offent his vacations over it.
He's got to go back to work, Robin Rich people,
huh yeah, if he can, And.
Speaker 13 (17:26):
Don't envy you trying to catch him, Marshall. From what
I hear, most everybody in the country's on his side already.
They'll make it awful hard for it.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Sure, but I'm a gambler too.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
But.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
I'm gracious.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
If I owned the bank, I'd want it busier than this.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
I wouldn't worry about mister Bodkinchester. He makes money and
on his claws. Our wait here with you. I won't
be on oasis.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
Oh hello, Marshall.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Amen, he wanted to see me, mister buggin.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Well, I couldn't get away to come tell you, Marshall.
I thought you'd like to know right away.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
I don't know what. Well.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
I rode out to Emmitt Bauer's main ranch this morning,
wanted an appraisal on some new barns he's putting up. Yeah,
and I took two men with me, Marshall, Clint Jones
and Jeff Roberts. That gunman, you bet they are that
same bandit Marshall with the flour sacking Linen Duster tried
to surprise us at Twin.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Grove of what happened, and he put a couple.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
Of rifle shots near us from about a quarter mile away.
Speaker 4 (18:46):
Thought we'd stop and give up a guess.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
But the boys went right after him.
Speaker 10 (18:49):
Did they get him?
Speaker 5 (18:50):
No?
Speaker 9 (18:50):
No, he ran.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
He's got an awful fast horse, Marshall. They couldn't get
close enough to even identify him.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Now that's his third attempt that I hold up this week,
and his wildest.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
So what are you gonna do well.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
He comes to town most every day, mister Buggan. The
next time he rides out, I'm gonna be following him.
I think he's through trying to rob people who are
ready for him and who'll fight.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Ellen m is best, stands out from all the rest.
Ellen EM's got everything everything, Yes everything. Ellen M stands
out for flavor.
Speaker 9 (19:40):
The Miracle Tip draws easy, lets you enjoy all the taste, and.

Speaker 9 (19:48):
No filter compares with Ellen M's pure white Miracle Tip
for quality or effectiveness.

Tobaccos L and M Tobaccos light and mild L and
M's got everything everything, Yes everything. King's sighs are regular.

Speaker 2 (20:31):
Mid afternoon, Teddy Blue Fisher rode into Dodge. He stood
around the plaza for a couple of hours, watched the
stage pull up for Abelene with its two professionals riding shotgun,
and then, suddenly, seeming to make up his mind, he
mounted his horse and rode slowly out of town. Shortly after,
Chester and I were on his trail about ten miles north.
(20:56):
He stopped at a clump of elder and waited for dusk,
and then rode on another couple of miles to the
house of a homestead called Charlie Bowen. It was dark
when he went inside and Chester and I got down
and crept up to the place on foot.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
What do you think he's doing here, miss bill?
Speaker 10 (21:23):
Uh, we'll find out.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Maybe they're feeding you move into dog un broke ho.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Yeah, maybe you hold up him in a chester. What
do you you see where he tied his horse? You
choose you go behind that wagon. H. We'll just make
real sure of Teddy Blue Fisher. You go over there
and unsettle his horse, Chester and then slip his bridle off. Yes,
but don't scare the horse, and to make it a
lot of noise.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Oh, lead him off a little before I turn and
move from yelp good.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
I'll be up by the window arrows the door there alright?
Speaker 5 (21:53):
You what would you know, would you?
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Kind?
Speaker 5 (22:00):
Mister Fisher? My wife could have fixed a couple of chickens.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
This is quite honor meeting you.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
His little cold pork out in the cellar, and I
got a jar of spiced apples left.
Speaker 5 (22:10):
House that sound Why that sounds fine, ma'am h just fine.
You folks doing pretty well out here.
Speaker 6 (22:17):
Actually, have we got no complaint? Lord's been good choice.
Speaker 8 (22:22):
Yeah, well, we been doing better than most homesteaders.
Speaker 5 (22:25):
Yeah, that's what I thought in gee Oh, I've read
by here a couple of times lately, and I can
see you got yourself a nice house from stock.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
Most folks got nothing but a patch of corn, the
sod huts to shame.
Speaker 4 (22:39):
Maybe the way people have to live.
Speaker 8 (22:42):
Yeah, well, now that's why we kind of stand behind
'em man, like you, mister Fisher. And now I ain't
seeing nothing. But you take a big banker like old Bodkin.
Why he's got more money than he knows what to
do with it. It don't hurt him, nothing to lose
a little love it now and then.
Speaker 5 (22:56):
But that's true. Course, bank don't uh don't have all
the money.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
In the world.
Speaker 6 (23:03):
They don't have none of ours, and they never will.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
You don't believe in banks.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Man, No, Sarah, I wouldn't put a penny in 'em.
Speaker 5 (23:11):
That's right, smart of you here.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
Well, uh, she's like that, mister Fisher.
Speaker 8 (23:15):
She she always said our money ought to be right
where we could lay our hands on.
Speaker 5 (23:19):
It whenever we want. Why, of course somebody, duh, depends
on how much you've got. Well, we've been saving all
our lives. Must have him here? Oh eight hundred dollars?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Now to do, mister dinner tucking money Chester?
Speaker 5 (23:34):
Where do you have that eight hundred dollars? Mind?
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Uh, it's hid where? Wouldn't be right to tell nobody,
mister Fisher, it's a secret that you could tell me.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
Oh no, we can't tell nobody at all. Yes you can,
mister Fisher. What are you doing? What's it gunn for?
I just wanna know where you keep that money? Well,

Speaker 6 (24:33):
Marshall, he was gonna shoot it. He was going to
kill you.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Know, what's the matter with you? I was joking, Marshall,
you had no cause to shoot me.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
You're lucky I didn't kill him.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
You should have.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Marshall, there's nothing but a murderer and a dirty common thief.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
I'd rather have him in jail, boy, and I'm public.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Was a joke. I was just fooling. I tell you,
I never harmed people like you. And you know, I
don't hardly know what it's all of a Fisher. You're finished.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Maybe some of the Robin hoods like you will be
finished too when people hear what you like, when you
think nobody's watching. Just if you tie up his arm,
he's too valuable now to bleed to death.
