Gun Smoke brought to you by L and M Builders

Speaker 1 (00:57):
Moved west with young Americas and the story of a
man who moved with it. 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
that makes a man watchful and a little lonely.

Speaker 8 (04:38):
Yes, sir, start walking Andy right in front of me.

Yeah, have to lock him up, Marshall.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
He murdered a man, then, kidd a, you witness.
Speaker 6 (04:54):
This isn't he I never saw.
Speaker 4 (04:55):

He told himself that kid must be crazy. It's almost
like he had to kill somebody. Nothing gonna stop him.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
He hates people telling him my young.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
Years, he ask me.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
He hates people.
Speaker 8 (05:07):
It's Ma.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
She's always made a baby out of him. Well, I
better go tell her about this.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
I don't know her, Ben, but don't get her hopes up,
and he hasn't got much chance.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Ma's a strongheaded woman, Marshall. She can be pretty fierce.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
And they murdered her man. He's gonna stand trial for it.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
Maybe, But Marshall, I sure don't envy you none. You
don't know it, but you're in for real trouble.
Speaker 7 (05:33):
Now.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Never has a cigarette received such an enthusiastic welcome, or
one such a smashing success. Yes, in so little time
as L and M filters. Why are L and M
sails soaring higher every day?
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Because it's the filter.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
That counts, and no filter compares with L and M's
miracle tip for quality or effectiveness. For the result, you
get much more flavor, much less nicotine, a light and
mild smoke. Join the trend to L and M. Like thousands,
you'll say, this is z Ellen, M.
Speaker 10 (06:29):
Silds, this is the night Man.
Speaker 5 (06:33):
Much more flavor, Ellen and M tilders much less naked
in Laen.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
L and M king size are regular, both at the
same law price.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Oh, I was the prisoner of this morning.
Speaker 8 (07:22):
Chester kindly hard to tell him, mister Dylan, Oh, what
do you mean? He won't say nothing. He he won't
even look at you. I took him some bread and
some coffee and he wouldn't touch it. It's just sitting
down on the floor getting cold. The coffee, I mean,
not the bread, the bread.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Okay, alright, Chester, alright, anyway, he won't be here long.
I'm trying to fix it so he'll get a trial
real soon.
Speaker 8 (07:46):
If she'd done his din killing someplace else.
Speaker 9 (07:49):
I don't like him.
Speaker 4 (07:50):

Speaker 4 (08:06):
I didn't come here for no socializing.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Uh? What's the shotgun for Miss Tennis to put people war?
Speaker 4 (08:13):
Cold Weather won't bother them asleep with his shotgun? Mushal
carried it ever since I was eighteen. But I didn't
come here to talk about that either.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Yeah, came to see your boy Andy.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Huh. Ben says Andy killed.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
Uh, he'll be tried and hung.
Speaker 9 (08:36):

Speaker 2 (08:38):
Now that depends on the judge of Miss Tennis.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Andy. He got much of a kids. From what Ben tells.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Me, he's young. The judge might take that into consider.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
Act the judge care ain't his son.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
I'm sorry, Miss Tennis.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
There's been one too many hangings in my family already.
What the boy's father, Mushall? They took mister Tennison hung
him just before Andy was born.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Oh.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
I worked the ranch best I could, and I raised
them two boys all alone. Nobody helped me at all.
I did it?
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Tell me? Uh? Why did they hang your husband?
Speaker 4 (09:13):
They said he killed a man.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Miss Tennis, you said Ben told you about what happened
last night.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
The old man's guilty. But Andy ain't going to hang Marshall.
Well you think I come here. I got my buggy
outside and Andy's leaving with me.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
No, mister a look, Uh, why don't you put the
shotgun down? Uh?
Speaker 4 (09:42):
Here, one of you scratch for your guns and I'll
blow you to heaven. Marshall, hear that Chester.
Speaker 9 (09:48):
First, man, I ain't doing a thing good.
Speaker 4 (09:51):
I ain't afraid of dying, and I ain't afraid of
killing neither.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Chester.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
You go get Andy and b him in here.
Speaker 7 (10:00):
Well, I.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Mister Dillan, do what she says, Chester.
Speaker 4 (10:05):
And the tricks, and I'll shoot the Marshal just to her.
Speaker 6 (10:08):
I won't find nothing.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
This isn't gonna do any good.
Speaker 4 (10:14):
Miss Tennis, gonna keep Andy from hanging.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Oh, I'm gonna find him sooner or later.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
You know that's where I got you beat Marshall. Andy
ain't gonna run, but he's gonna stay on the ranch
right in the house. Anybody comes after him, they're gonna
have to.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Fight me, fight you you think that'll make a man
out of him?
Speaker 4 (10:35):
You think the hangman would. And here he is. Hello, Mar,
you young fool, But you have to go kill a
man for him. Now, Mar, the buggy's outside, Go get
in it.
Speaker 6 (10:51):
Sure, Ma.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
And Marshall. Don't think you're gonna shoot him while we're
driving out of town.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
I don't shoot our armed men. Miss Tenant.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
He ate a coward, He's got a bad temper, but
he ain't a coward.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
What would you call hiding behind a woman's skirts? And
he's what difference does that make?
Speaker 4 (11:09):
You will find out if you don't leave him alone.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
I'll tell you so long, miss Tennis, So long enough.
Chester and I stood helplessly at the window and watched
missus Tennis and Andy drive out of town. And as
we did, I began to wonder how I'd ever get
(11:34):
him back into jail short of shooting his mother. Our
idea of keeping him right by her side and not
letting him run was a good one, but I figured
even he'd get tired of that sooner or later. So,
after sitting around Dodge being lapped at for a week,
Chester and I rode out to see if Andy was
(11:55):
still on the ranch.
Speaker 9 (12:00):
Oh, there's a house that's dying.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
Yeah, I don't see nobody around I maybe they're inside.
Speaker 8 (12:07):
I wish I was inside something.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
That woman got a bead on me right now, I can.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Just feel it. Chessa look over there, one of that
cock and what but a barn there without her?
Speaker 9 (12:19):
Mister Dylan, What in the world she doing digging?
Speaker 2 (12:23):
How it looks like now she's sent us? Now there's
that shot gun again. Oh man, put your hands in
the air, Chesty.
Speaker 5 (12:31):
Sure we're friendly, okay, but it just makes me a
better target.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Huh uh uh?
Speaker 5 (12:41):
What are you join near?
Speaker 6 (12:42):
Marshall?
Speaker 2 (12:44):
I wanted to talk to you, miss Tunnis about Andy. Yeah,
I'd like to talk to him too.
Speaker 4 (12:54):
He are two late, Marshall.
Speaker 9 (12:56):
He gone, he's dead?
Speaker 4 (12:59):
What just here's his grave? I just buried him?
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Or what happened?
Speaker 4 (13:04):
What difference is made?
Speaker 2 (13:06):
He said? How did he die? Miss Tummas, Why.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Don't you leave me?
Speaker 6 (13:09):
Be Marshall.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
You can't hang him now, go on back to die.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Ms Tuennis. I know how you feel, and I hate
to ask you this, but I'm gonna have to see
the body before I can make a report.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
Anybody goes digging in that grave, I'll kill him. What happened,
Miss Tummas, alright, I'll tell you Ben talked Andy into
giving hisself up and standing trial, and he's gonna do
it that. I wouldn't allow that. No son of mine's
gonna hang.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
You're saying that you killed him.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
I killed him. I'd rather he died that way than
see him hang.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Where it's Ben gone.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
I'll run him off. He ain't never coming back. Both my
sons are gone now, Marshall for good.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Ms tunnis gonna arrest Mangel How you've confessed to a murder.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
They won't want a woman literally No, Okay, you can
arrest me, but I ain't coming to town till tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Well, if you'd like to kind of pack up or
I don't want.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
You waiting around here, I'll come to Dodge by myself.

see how you can trust touch. He'll show up justice,
you really think so, I'm sure of it.
Speaker 8 (14:53):
Now.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Once she does, she's in for a big surprise.
Speaker 6 (15:11):
Oh, you want me to go get my chestboard now?

Duk. She'll show up all right, Yes she will. H
Why should she mad?
Speaker 6 (15:31):
Why should anybody walk in and give up on a
murder charge?
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Oh, martenis is a little different from most people. Dark
like Ben told me, she gonna be pretty fierce.
Speaker 9 (15:40):
Oh, I know she can't.
Speaker 8 (15:42):
You know.
Speaker 6 (15:42):
I remember one time a horse pitched her into.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
Some wires and it cut her up bad all over.
Speaker 6 (15:49):
I had to sew that woman up from one end
to the other, and she never even blinked.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
She just lay there looking kind of mad about her.
She's got her own mind, I'll say, uh, even if
she is wrong most of the time.
Speaker 6 (16:02):
She always has been wrong about Andy.
Speaker 9 (16:05):
I tried to tell her that one and you know.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
What she did.
Speaker 6 (16:09):
She just looked at me, never said a word, steered
me right out of the house.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Oh it made me feel like a fool. She's made
me feel like a fool too. Do you know what
can you do?
Speaker 3 (16:21):
You can't fight women, man, No, not.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Sometimes you get out smarter 'em. Maybe I don't know.
I h n nobody gonna guess she is.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
What are you doing near? Doctor?
Speaker 6 (16:33):
I on another endless tenant, I was just chatting with
the marshall.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
I was just killing him little time.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
Yeah, guess the things. Huh Now I'm telling her lies?
And you ought to be working the.
Speaker 9 (16:44):
Trouble, would you? City folks?
Speaker 6 (16:46):
Oh, I died, didn't exactly what you call a city, missus.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
Tenn, I didn't come here to argue about that. You
gonna lock me up, marshall?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Uh No, I miss tell us, I'm not what well
I got to say. I uh made a mistake yesterday.
I can't send you up for trial.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
You talking about why can't you?
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Oh, there's no witness. You say you killed Andy, but
that's not enough for a court of law. There's gotta
be somebody else to testify that you did it.
Speaker 4 (17:14):
I never heard of no such things.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
That it's in the book. That's the way the law works.
Of course, if you hadn't run Ben off, he'd be
a witness. But uh, I can't go chasing him all
over the country.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
You don't never find him. That he's gone all the
way to California, and I.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Got no case against you. I'll only get in trouble
for wasting the court's time. You might as well go
on back home. That's dinner. You trying to fool me?
Speaker 4 (17:38):
Marshall.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Oh, the case closed. I don't like it, but there's
nothing I can do about it unless Ben shows up. Sometime.
Speaker 4 (17:45):
Ben's gone.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
I told you, well, as long as he is, you're free.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
Why didn't you tell me this yesterday?
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I'm sorry, Miss Tennis. I guess I wasn't thinking too
good yesterday.
Speaker 4 (17:56):
You get out and do a little works that they're
sitting around this office John with doctor Adams. You might
get the thinking better.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Yes, ma'am. Maybe you're right, ma'am.
Speaker 4 (18:09):
I'm going now, so do.
Speaker 6 (18:13):
I goodbye, Miss Matt Yeah, I ain't never heard anything
so crazy.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
What were you telling her? It doesn't matter, Doc, as
long as she believes it.
Speaker 6 (18:27):
Well, what are you trying to do with it?
Speaker 2 (18:28):
I'm trying to catch a murderer, Doc.
Speaker 6 (18:31):
You don't think she did?
Speaker 2 (18:32):
No, I don't, but I'll find out who did real
soon now.
Speaker 9 (18:54):
L and M.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Filters are sweeping the country. L and M the filter
tips cigarette.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Everyone's talking about. Everyone's changing too.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
For example, Maurice Evans told us my doctors suggested ellen
M Filters.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
I recommend them to you as the best.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Patricia Morrison wrote, I'm so glad I changed to ellen
M Filters because here's a filter cigarette that really tastes
the way a cigarette should. And John Robert Powers says,
I'm convinced ellen M's Miracle Tip is the ultimate in filters. Yes,
ellen M filters are truly sweeping the country, breaking more
sales records every day. The reason it's the filter that counts,
(19:33):
and no filter compares with ellen M's Miracle Tip for
quality or effectiveness. You get much more flavor, much less nicotine.
Our statement of quality goes unchallenged. Ellen M is America's
highest quality and best filter tip cigarette.
Speaker 10 (19:52):
This is the allen M Filters.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
This is the thing now too, sad Hall.
Speaker 10 (20:01):
And filters you King five and regularity this is the
falling and filters falling and filters with a miracle.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Teams join the trend to l and M Kingsize or regular,
both at.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
The same low price. I didn't follow his tennis home
that night. I left her alone all that night and
(20:42):
the next day, but long toward evening Chester and I
rode out of dodge, and soon after dark we were
close enough to the ranch to turn our horses loose,
hide our saddles, and walk the rest of the way.
There was a light in the house, but all we
could see was just telling us she was alone. So
(21:04):
we crept into the barn and sat on and waited,
and we waited until almost midnight.
Speaker 9 (21:15):
Maybe she wasn't, I mister Dunn.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Maybe he did leave the country I have I've been
wrong before. Chester.
Speaker 9 (21:21):
Oh no, it's right to mean that. I I I mean, well,
what a man.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
Well, if he doesn't night in here to night or
tomorrow or tomorrow night or sometime, then I was wrong again. Yeah, sir, uh,
we're gonna wait here til we starve if we have to.
Speaker 9 (21:37):
Oh my goodness, don't talk about he nine even had
my supper.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
I quite listen.
Speaker 9 (21:45):
What's a horse that she done? Must be?
Speaker 2 (21:48):
He? Yeah? Well, they won't leave his horse out society
or bring him in here. Get back in one of
those stalls, Chester, and don't do when they shoot him
unless he gets me alright, hur right now, ess you alright,
(22:24):
I got him Chester, got his horse inside. Yess me.
Speaker 9 (22:39):
You hurt him sad, mister Dillon.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Oh you'll be alright now minute I got his gun.
Speaker 9 (22:43):
Uh, oh, mister Dillon, that ain't Ben. It's end.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Yeah, I know. I thought he was dead. She wouldn't shoot,
and they Chester never That's what was wrong with her
story from the beginning.
Speaker 9 (22:56):
Well, then that's Ben's grave out there. Him and had
a fight.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Yeah, I guess so. But by making me think it
was Andy and that she'd killed him, Andy would be free.
Nobody's gonna go hunting for a dead man, and.
Speaker 9 (23:08):
She was willing to go to jail. Oh uh huh,

him back to jail himself, and you shot him for it.

No, No, Mark killed him.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Sh she told you she did it.
Speaker 6 (23:39):
Well, why why did you try to lose anyway?
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Because I didn't believe her. You shoulda run when you
had the chance. Andy, You got nothing to run for her.
But it doesn't matter. If you admit killing Ben and out,
you're gonna be tried for murdering that gambler and Dodge Candy.
Speaker 9 (23:51):
It's Tannish Candy.

He'll be hung, Monty.
Speaker 2 (24:56):

Speaker 4 (26:04):
And you beat me, Marshall, You beat me this time.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
I sure was wrong about you, Miss Tennis.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
I had to kill him. I couldn't see him hang.

(27:06):
Whether you like a long cigarette or a regular sized smoke,
it's my opinion that your best bet is an L
and M filter because only L and M's give you
effective filtration, and no other cigarette has it. Enjoy Ell
and M's Light and Mild smoke either way King size
or regular, both at the same low price.

Speaker 6 (03:29):
I ain't want a hand yet, you know what I mean?
He is in our young fellow. Why time you don't

Speaker 7 (03:38):

He thinks he can keep me because I'm a kid.
Put that gun away. Not only I use it while

Speaker 4 (03:51):
He was checking me.

to kill a man. He wasn't even armed. Dandy want

Speaker 3 (03:57):
All that part's Marshall killing Andy.
Speaker 6 (04:01):

Don't talk to my cat's too late for talk anyway, Chester, Yes, sir,

Speaker 8 (04:38):
Yes, sir, start walking Andy right in front of me.
Speaker 9 (04:42):
Come on, Oh that's right, I'm sure it was.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Yeah, have to lock him up, Marshall.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
He murdered a man, then, kidd a, you witness.
Speaker 6 (04:54):
This isn't he I never saw.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
I didn't like him now. The dealer wasn't even armed.
He told himself that kid must be crazy. It's almost
like he had to kill somebody. Nothing gonna stop him.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
He hates people telling him my young.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
Years, he ask me.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
He hates people.
Speaker 8 (05:07):
It's Ma.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
She's always made a baby out of him. Well, I
better go tell her about this.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
I don't know her, Ben, but don't get her hopes up,
and he hasn't got much chance.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Ma's a strongheaded woman, Marshall. She can be pretty fierce.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
And they murdered her man. He's gonna stand trial for it.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
Maybe, But Marshall, I sure don't envy you none. You
don't know it, but you're in for real trouble.
Speaker 7 (05:33):
Now.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Never has a cigarette received such an enthusiastic welcome, or
one such a smashing success. Yes, in so little time
as L and M filters. Why are L and M
sails soaring higher every day?
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Because it's the filter.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
That counts, and no filter compares with L and M's
miracle tip for quality or effectiveness. For the result, you
get much more flavor, much less nicotine, a light and
mild smoke. Join the trend to L and M. Like thousands,
you'll say, this is z Ellen, M.
Speaker 10 (06:29):
Silds, this is the night Man.
Speaker 5 (06:33):
Much more flavor, Ellen and M tilders much less naked
in Laen.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
L and M king size are regular, both at the
same law price.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Oh, I was the prisoner of this morning.
Speaker 8 (07:22):
Chester kindly hard to tell him, mister Dylan, Oh, what
do you mean? He won't say nothing. He he won't
even look at you. I took him some bread and
some coffee and he wouldn't touch it. It's just sitting
down on the floor getting cold. The coffee, I mean,
not the bread, the bread.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Okay, alright, Chester, alright, anyway, he won't be here long.
I'm trying to fix it so he'll get a trial
real soon.
Speaker 8 (07:46):
If she'd done his din killing someplace else.
Speaker 9 (07:49):
I don't like him.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
Man.
Speaker 9 (07:50):
They won't even eat his breakfast. Makes me feel Oh,
my goodness, will be good.
Speaker 6 (07:57):
I shrug beling.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Yes, ma'am.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
My name's Tennis.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
How do you do? Uh? This is Chester prodfoot how.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
Do you do?
Speaker 9 (08:06):
Man?
Speaker 4 (08:06):
I didn't come here for no socializing.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Uh? What's the shotgun for Miss Tennis to put people war?
Speaker 4 (08:13):
Cold Weather won't bother them asleep with his shotgun? Mushal
carried it ever since I was eighteen. But I didn't
come here to talk about that either.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Yeah, came to see your boy Andy.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Huh. Ben says Andy killed.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
A man, he did, Miss Tennis.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
You're holding him for medi Yes, ma'am going to try him.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Uh, he'll be tried and hung.
Speaker 9 (08:36):
I suppose.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Now that depends on the judge of Miss Tennis.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Andy. He got much of a kids. From what Ben tells.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Me, he's young. The judge might take that into consider.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
Act the judge care ain't his son.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
I'm sorry, Miss Tennis.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
There's been one too many hangings in my family already.
What the boy's father, Mushall? They took mister Tennison hung
him just before Andy was born.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Oh.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
I worked the ranch best I could, and I raised
them two boys all alone. Nobody helped me at all.
I did it?
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Tell me? Uh? Why did they hang your husband?
Speaker 4 (09:13):
They said he killed a man.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Miss Tennis, you said Ben told you about what happened
last night.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
The old man's guilty. But Andy ain't going to hang Marshall.
Well you think I come here. I got my buggy
outside and Andy's leaving with me.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
No, mister a look, Uh, why don't you put the
shotgun down? Uh?
Speaker 4 (09:42):
Here, one of you scratch for your guns and I'll
blow you to heaven. Marshall, hear that Chester.
Speaker 9 (09:48):
First, man, I ain't doing a thing good.
Speaker 4 (09:51):
I ain't afraid of dying, and I ain't afraid of
killing neither.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Chester.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
You go get Andy and b him in here.
Speaker 7 (10:00):
Well, I.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Mister Dillan, do what she says, Chester.
Speaker 4 (10:05):
And the tricks, and I'll shoot the Marshal just to her.
Speaker 6 (10:08):
I won't find nothing.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
This isn't gonna do any good.
Speaker 4 (10:14):
Miss Tennis, gonna keep Andy from hanging.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Oh, I'm gonna find him sooner or later.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
You know that's where I got you beat Marshall. Andy
ain't gonna run, but he's gonna stay on the ranch
right in the house. Anybody comes after him, they're gonna
have to.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Fight me, fight you you think that'll make a man
out of him?
Speaker 4 (10:35):
You think the hangman would. And here he is. Hello, Mar,
you young fool, But you have to go kill a
man for him. Now, Mar, the buggy's outside, Go get
in it.
Speaker 6 (10:51):
Sure, Ma.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
And Marshall. Don't think you're gonna shoot him while we're
driving out of town.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
I don't shoot our armed men. Miss Tenant.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
He ate a coward, He's got a bad temper, but
he ain't a coward.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
What would you call hiding behind a woman's skirts? And
he's what difference does that make?
Speaker 4 (11:09):
You will find out if you don't leave him alone.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
I'll tell you so long, miss Tennis, So long enough.
Chester and I stood helplessly at the window and watched
missus Tennis and Andy drive out of town. And as
we did, I began to wonder how I'd ever get
(11:34):
him back into jail short of shooting his mother. Our
idea of keeping him right by her side and not
letting him run was a good one, but I figured
even he'd get tired of that sooner or later. So,
after sitting around Dodge being lapped at for a week,
Chester and I rode out to see if Andy was
(11:55):
still on the ranch.
Speaker 9 (12:00):
Oh, there's a house that's dying.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
Yeah, I don't see nobody around I maybe they're inside.
Speaker 8 (12:07):
I wish I was inside something.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
That woman got a bead on me right now, I can.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Just feel it. Chessa look over there, one of that
cock and what but a barn there without her?
Speaker 9 (12:19):
Mister Dylan, What in the world she doing digging?
Speaker 2 (12:23):
How it looks like now she's sent us? Now there's
that shot gun again. Oh man, put your hands in
the air, Chesty.
Speaker 5 (12:31):
Sure we're friendly, okay, but it just makes me a
better target.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Huh uh uh?
Speaker 5 (12:41):
What are you join near?
Speaker 6 (12:42):
Marshall?
Speaker 2 (12:44):
I wanted to talk to you, miss Tunnis about Andy. Yeah,
I'd like to talk to him too.
Speaker 4 (12:54):
He are two late, Marshall.
Speaker 9 (12:56):
He gone, he's dead?
Speaker 4 (12:59):
What just here's his grave? I just buried him?
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Or what happened?
Speaker 4 (13:04):
What difference is made?
Speaker 2 (13:06):
He said? How did he die? Miss Tummas, Why.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Don't you leave me?
Speaker 6 (13:09):
Be Marshall.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
You can't hang him now, go on back to die.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Ms Tuennis. I know how you feel, and I hate
to ask you this, but I'm gonna have to see
the body before I can make a report.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
Anybody goes digging in that grave, I'll kill him. What happened,
Miss Tummas, alright, I'll tell you Ben talked Andy into
giving hisself up and standing trial, and he's gonna do
it that. I wouldn't allow that. No son of mine's
gonna hang.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
You're saying that you killed him.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
I killed him. I'd rather he died that way than
see him hang.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Where it's Ben gone.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
I'll run him off. He ain't never coming back. Both my
sons are gone now, Marshall for good.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Ms tunnis gonna arrest Mangel How you've confessed to a murder.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
They won't want a woman literally No, Okay, you can
arrest me, but I ain't coming to town till tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Well, if you'd like to kind of pack up or
I don't want.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
You waiting around here, I'll come to Dodge by myself.
Either you trust me or short or I won't come

Speaker 2 (14:44):
That woman is crazy. If you'll do anything, I don't
see how you can trust touch. He'll show up justice,
you really think so, I'm sure of it.
Speaker 8 (14:53):
Now.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Once she does, she's in for a big surprise.
Speaker 6 (15:11):
Oh, you want me to go get my chestboard now?
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Uh n, no, doc I I I don't feel like
playing right down. I think, oh you don't.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
Well, if it might help kind of kill time, I'm
not worried.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Duk. She'll show up all right, Yes she will. H
Why should she mad?
Speaker 6 (15:31):
Why should anybody walk in and give up on a
murder charge?
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Oh, martenis is a little different from most people. Dark
like Ben told me, she gonna be pretty fierce.
Speaker 9 (15:40):
Oh, I know she can't.
Speaker 8 (15:42):
You know.
Speaker 6 (15:42):
I remember one time a horse pitched her into.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
Some wires and it cut her up bad all over.
Speaker 6 (15:49):
I had to sew that woman up from one end
to the other, and she never even blinked.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
She just lay there looking kind of mad about her.
She's got her own mind, I'll say, uh, even if
she is wrong most of the time.
Speaker 6 (16:02):
She always has been wrong about Andy.
Speaker 9 (16:05):
I tried to tell her that one and you know.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
What she did.
Speaker 6 (16:09):
She just looked at me, never said a word, steered
me right out of the house.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Oh it made me feel like a fool. She's made
me feel like a fool too. Do you know what
can you do?
Speaker 3 (16:21):
You can't fight women, man, No, not.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Sometimes you get out smarter 'em. Maybe I don't know.
I h n nobody gonna guess she is.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
What are you doing near? Doctor?
Speaker 6 (16:33):
I on another endless tenant, I was just chatting with
the marshall.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
I was just killing him little time.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
Yeah, guess the things. Huh Now I'm telling her lies?
And you ought to be working the.
Speaker 9 (16:44):
Trouble, would you? City folks?
Speaker 6 (16:46):
Oh, I died, didn't exactly what you call a city, missus.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
Tenn, I didn't come here to argue about that. You
gonna lock me up, marshall?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Uh No, I miss tell us, I'm not what well
I got to say. I uh made a mistake yesterday.
I can't send you up for trial.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
You talking about why can't you?
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Oh, there's no witness. You say you killed Andy, but
that's not enough for a court of law. There's gotta
be somebody else to testify that you did it.
Speaker 4 (17:14):
I never heard of no such things.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
That it's in the book. That's the way the law works.
Of course, if you hadn't run Ben off, he'd be
a witness. But uh, I can't go chasing him all
over the country.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
You don't never find him. That he's gone all the
way to California, and I.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Got no case against you. I'll only get in trouble

nothing I can do about it unless Ben shows up. Sometime.
Speaker 4 (17:45):

Speaker 4 (17:49):

M Filters.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
I recommend them to you as the best.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Patricia Morrison wrote, I'm so glad I changed to ellen
M Filters because here's a filter cigarette that really tastes
the way a cigarette should. And John Robert Powers says,
I'm convinced ellen M's Miracle Tip is the ultimate in filters. Yes,
ellen M filters are truly sweeping the country, breaking more
sales records every day. The reason it's the filter that counts,
(19:33):
and no filter compares with ellen M's Miracle Tip for
quality or effectiveness. You get much more flavor, much less nicotine.
Our statement of quality goes unchallenged. Ellen M is America's
highest quality and best filter tip cigarette.
Speaker 10 (19:52):
This is the allen M Filters.
Speaker 2 (19:55):

that night. I left her alone all that night and

the next day, but long toward evening Chester and I
rode out of dodge, and soon after dark we were
close enough to the ranch to turn our horses loose,
hide our saddles, and walk the rest of the way.
There was a light in the house, but all we
could see was just telling us she was alone. So
(21:04):
we crept into the barn and sat on and waited,
and we waited until almost midnight.
Speaker 9 (21:15):
Maybe she wasn't, I mister Dunn.
Speaker 2 (21:17):

wrong before. Chester.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
Well, if he doesn't night in here to night or
tomorrow or tomorrow night or sometime, then I was wrong again. Yeah, sir, uh,

(27:06):
Whether you like a long cigarette or a regular sized smoke,
it's my opinion that your best bet is an L
and M filter because only L and M's give you
effective filtration, and no other cigarette has it. Enjoy Ell
and M's Light and Mild smoke either way King size
or regular, both at the same low price.
