Speaker 1 (00:08):
Around dodd Silly and in the territory on West, there's
just one way to handle the killers and the spoilers,
and that's with a US marshal and the smell of
gun smoke. Gun smokes. Sorry, William Conrad. A transcribed story
(00:40):

You're just stirring up a lot of dust.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Well, cleanliness is next to godliness, mister Dillon.
Speaker 7 (01:35):
Yeah, I know, I know, Chester, But all you're doing
is getting it off the floor end of the air
man can hardly.
Speaker 6 (01:40):
Breathe in here.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
All right, I'll do my sweeping later.
Speaker 5 (01:48):
Good.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
My mother taught me that, mister Dylan, taught you what, Chester,
that cleanliness is next to godliness. She was a fine woman.
Speaker 6 (01:57):
Look, Chester, it's a good saying, and it's probably true.
Speaker 7 (02:00):
And I got nothing, I guess your mother except that
she also should have taught you how to sweep.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
Well, maybe she just didn't have the time, mister Dillon.
You see, there was an awful lot of us and
we with Chorge hollow.
Speaker 8 (02:10):
Doc, Come on, now, I'll.
Speaker 4 (02:13):

Speaker 6 (02:23):
Doc.
Speaker 5 (02:23):

Maybe you don't need to drink.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
No, wait a minute, doctor, I'm with you.
Speaker 7 (02:31):

Cane Bestival.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
Well, here's him, yeah, him, Yes, he'll be dead in
a couple of months.
Speaker 8 (03:49):
Hot, that's what I told him. What do you mean, Doc,
I'm not the only one who's told him that. I'm
just the last.
Speaker 5 (03:57):
Well who is this Cane? Bestial doc?
Speaker 8 (04:00):
Oh, just a fellow came in on the train last
night leaving for Arizona tomorrow. That's where he's gonna die
in Arizona. He's a musician who plays the guitar.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Well, how's he gonna die?
Speaker 8 (04:15):

ask about it, he says, poor fella climbing out there.
Keep him going for a little while longer. And oh,

Speaker 2 (04:30):
Some Well, who wouldn't be, doctor, No.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
Nothing can help him?
Speaker 8 (04:43):
Huh no, nothing.
Speaker 5 (04:46):

men they're gonna die.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
Sometimes I have.
Speaker 8 (04:55):
To let me see that fellow with the out there

Speaker 5 (05:28):
Pleasure to meet you.
Speaker 8 (05:31):
Heah yeah, I have a drink. Well, thank you.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Doc.
Speaker 5 (05:38):
Is your first trip west, Kane, Yes, Marshall, it is.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
But where are you from?
Speaker 8 (05:44):
No place in particular, Miss Kitty. I seem to spend
most of my life on the Mississippi River.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
I thought you were a musician. I am.
Speaker 8 (05:56):
I was hired to ride the river boats and play
my guitar for a passenger.
Speaker 6 (06:02):
Or at least you've had a constant change of scenery.
Speaker 8 (06:06):
After twenty years agoing up and down that river, it
got pretty familiar, Marshall Cane. I knew young fellow back
in Saint Louis for the war, and he was learning
to be a river pilot.
Speaker 9 (06:15):
See.
Speaker 8 (06:15):
I wonder if you ever ran into him name of
Clemens Sam Clevens. No, Doc, I don't believe I did.
Speaker 6 (06:21):
He was a very amusing fella.
Speaker 8 (06:23):
You were just chock full of stories. You leaving Dodge tomorrow, King,
I'm headed fire Arizona, Miss Kitty. No reflection on Dodge, though.
Speaker 7 (06:34):
If you had a place out there called Tombstone, I
wish you'd look.
Speaker 5 (06:38):
Up Virgil Alert for me, tell him I sent you.
Speaker 8 (06:40):
Huh, thanks, Marshall, I'll do that.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Say Kane. I wonder could I ask you a favor.
Speaker 8 (06:48):
I certainly, Miss Kitty, anything at all.
Speaker 6 (06:51):
Or would you play something for us?
Speaker 8 (06:53):
I had an idea that's what it'd be, anything in particular,
something you like Kane, another girl I knew used to
like this one.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
I wish you were going to stay here a while.
Maybe you could teach me to.
Speaker 8 (08:44):
Play like That would be a pleasure, Miss Kitty, But
I'm afraid I won't be around for long.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
More than mister Dillon. It's a noon Chester, Yes, sir,
I know, but you went off with Doc yesterday, so
I figured I had a little time coming today.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
Well that depends on how you spent it. Now, if
you've been gambling, I am.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
Now, mister Dylon. You know I never gambled, you know, sir.
I was out helping a fellow learn to shoot a
six gun, that's all.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Now.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
You mean there's a man in Dodger who doesn't know
how This fellow don't never had one in his hand before.
He's a musician. It plays the guitar, he told me.
Speaker 5 (09:36):
I mean Cain Caine Vestal.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Yeah, so that's his name. Nicer fellow you'd ever want
to meet.
Speaker 7 (09:42):
Yeah, But he was supposed to leave on the stage
this morning. And what's he done with a six gun?
Speaker 5 (09:48):
Anyway?
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Well, I don't know, mister Dillon. He just come by
here early this morning and asked me if i'd teach him.
Speaker 5 (09:54):
Now where'd he got the gun?
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Said?
Speaker 6 (09:55):
He just bought it.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
Anything wrong, mister.
Speaker 5 (09:59):
Dillon, No, No, it just doesn't add up somehow.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
So well, he won't cause any trouble. He's off the short.
You never know, Chester, No, sir, My kitty looks pretty
this morning. She's got a yellow parasol, mister Dylan.
Speaker 7 (10:18):
Kitty, I think I'll go see her for a minute.
I'll be right back, Chester, Kitty. How on that, Kitty,
(10:39):
I'd like to talk.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
To you for a minute.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Sure, what is it? Uh?
Speaker 5 (10:43):
I'm curious about something, Kitty. Maybe you can help me.
How long was Kane Vessel with you yesterday?
Speaker 10 (10:50):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Well he didn't leave till evening.
Speaker 7 (10:54):
Why well, he didn't go out on the stage this morning,
and he's bought himself a six gun.
Speaker 5 (11:00):
Are you any idea why.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Doesn't sound like Kane.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
Anything happened yesterday, Kitty? Or did he tell you anything? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (11:10):
There was one thing. Matt Joel Adams and a couple
of his men came in King got pretty upset when
he saw him had a bad coffin spell. Later, he
asked a lot of questions about Adams.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
Well, what'd you tell him?
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Just that Adams is a big landown around here, that
nobody wasn't working for him, likes him very much, That's
all I know.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Anyway, they didn't talk Adamson Kane.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
No, I don't think they even know each other anyway.
Speaker 5 (11:41):
He sure isn't the sort to be packing a gun.
Speaker 8 (11:43):
You'll just get into trouble.
Speaker 6 (11:44):
Matt.
Speaker 5 (11:45):
Yeah. Where's he's staying? He say, Dodge House? I think, Thanks, Kitty,
I'll see you later.
Speaker 8 (12:31):
Come in, hello, Kane, Marshall, Dylon, come in, come in,
thank you. What can I do for you? Marshall?
Speaker 5 (12:45):
I uh, I thought you were leaving Dodge on the
stage this morning.
Speaker 8 (12:50):
Well I was, Marshall, but I changed my mind, you
know how?
Speaker 7 (12:53):
Sure, okay, Sure, I We're glad to have you around.
I'm just curious though you're stay and have anything to
do with that gun you bought this one?
Speaker 8 (13:04):
Oh just had told you. I thought he would. He's
a good teacher. Marshall.
Speaker 5 (13:11):
Yeah, but that doesn't answer my question.
Speaker 8 (13:16):
Do I have to answer?
Speaker 5 (13:18):
I'm just trying to help you, that's all.
Speaker 8 (13:21):
Yeah, I appreciate that, Marshall, but I'm afraid there's nothing
you can do.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Look, Caan, you're new in this country. Man like you
just can't pick up a six gun and call himself
a fighting man, not an expect to live through it.
Speaker 8 (13:36):
I certainly lay no claim to be a fighting man.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
And why did you buy that gun?
Speaker 8 (13:44):
There's no law out here against a man having a
gun is in Marshall, No, But.
Speaker 7 (13:48):
Any man who carries one is expected to use it
when the time comes. It'd be a lot safer without one.
Speaker 8 (13:56):
Being safe doesn't mean a whole lot to me, Marshall,
not now.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
Yeah, I know, Doc told me what's it all about.
Speaker 8 (14:12):
It's a long story, and I know one I suppose.
I'd really rather not talk about it.
Speaker 7 (14:20):
I can't force you to, but but tell me this.
Does it have anything to do with Joel Adams?
Speaker 8 (14:27):
Yes it does, Marshall. I'm gonna kill him when I
don't know anytime.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
Why.
Speaker 8 (14:39):
That's a long story. I mentioned.
Speaker 5 (14:42):
All right, Kane, But.
Speaker 7 (14:44):
If you try to face him, he'll kill you before
you got that gun halfway out.
Speaker 5 (14:47):
Of your belt. And if you shoot him any other way,
you'll hang for it.
Speaker 8 (14:52):
You've forgotten something, Marshall. What No matter what I do,
I'm gonna die soon anyway, A month or two gonna
make any difference. You hate Adams that much. I wouldn't
kill a man I didn't hate what.
Speaker 5 (15:06):
I didn't think you were the sort of man who'd
kill anyone.
Speaker 8 (15:10):
Only Joel Adams Marshall, and I got to warn him
about you. I understand, Marshall.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
It's all right.
Speaker 8 (15:18):
He doesn't know me anyway, never even saw me before.
Speaker 5 (15:21):
But you want to kill him?
Speaker 7 (15:23):
Yes, well, i'll take your gun away from it, but
you just find another one, and I can't arrest you
unless I catch you trying to bushwhack him. I'm sorry
for the trouble i'm causing you, Marshall. You know I've
never had to deal with a man like you before.
King Maybe I ought to just tie you up and
throw you on that stage.
Speaker 8 (15:42):
You could, but i'd just come right back.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
I guess you wouldn't.
Speaker 8 (15:50):
I'm sorry this has to happen here and dodge Marshall,
Then why don't you leave? I guess I hate Joel
Adams too much? All right, Kane, I'm through trying to
convince you so long, buy Marshall.
Speaker 7 (16:31):
I never heard of Kane Vestal Marshal, and I never
saw him before last night.
Speaker 5 (16:35):
You must have known him somewhere, Adams.
Speaker 6 (16:37):
You're trying to make me out a liar, Marshall.
Speaker 7 (16:40):
I'm trying to save Kane's life in yours. Maybe Oh,
he ain't gonna shoot me. I'll kill him first time
he looks side. What maybe you won't see him? Oh
shoot me in the back?
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Eh?
Speaker 5 (16:52):
Well in that case, In that case, what?
Speaker 6 (16:57):
Why?
Speaker 8 (16:57):
Nothing?
Speaker 6 (16:57):
Doing nothing?
Speaker 5 (16:59):
I get it. If Kane shot in the back, you'll
be the first man i'd take in that.
Speaker 6 (17:03):
I don't even know him. Why should I shoot him?
Speaker 5 (17:05):
I'm only warning it.
Speaker 6 (17:05):
Well, just leave me be, Marshall. I can take care
of myself.
Speaker 5 (17:08):
See that you do, Adams, and only yourself.
Speaker 10 (17:10):
Why sure, Marshall, I don't much like the idea of
some stranger gunning for me.
Speaker 5 (17:16):
Makes me sot of uneasy. There must be some reason
for it.
Speaker 7 (17:19):
Don't start it again, Marshall, ain't no reason. I know
you've led a blameless life. You never heard anyone.
Speaker 6 (17:24):
I told you twice there are men around here.
Speaker 7 (17:25):
Who'd shoot you on site if they thought they could
get by with it. I don't think you were ever
any good, Adams, so don't tell me it. Kine's got
no reason.
Speaker 6 (17:32):
I don't talk, that's all.
Speaker 7 (17:36):
Maybe it's true you don't know him, but he sure
knows something about you well, and I wish you didn't.
Speaker 6 (17:40):
That's all I got to say.
Speaker 7 (17:42):
We'll just keep out of his way, get a little time,
and maybe there won't be any killing at all.
Speaker 6 (17:48):
Why sure, sure, all the time in the world.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
All right, Adams, I've done all I can.
Speaker 6 (17:57):
Just don't worry about me.
Speaker 5 (17:59):
I'm not. Then, goodbye, Marshall, goodbye.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
We will return for the second act of gun Smoke
in just a moment, but first, back tomorrow night. Pull
up your chair, or better still, roll back your rug.
It's The Von Monroe Show returning to the Starres address.
Listen for Vaughn, the moon Maids, the Moonmen in their
wonderful way with popular music and songs once again at
their old familiar Saturday night time on CBS Radio. Remember
(18:42):
they're coming back tomorrow night. You and the whole family
are invited to this season scintillating premiere of The Von
Monroe Show on most of these same stations. Now the
second act of gun smoke.
Speaker 4 (19:19):
Sure he is quiet around town tonight, mister Dillon.
Speaker 5 (19:22):
Yeah, there's a trailherd doing a couple of days. I
suppose business will pick up.
Speaker 4 (19:30):
Then you think those cowboys be too tuckered out after it.
I'd like that to have any juice left in them,
A tall, mister Dillon.
Speaker 5 (19:37):
They're too poor to cut loose any other time.
Speaker 4 (19:40):
Well, that don't stopping down in Texas, mister Dillon. No,
it's just like an uncle mine back in Waco.
Speaker 8 (19:47):
He was poor.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Oh he was mean poor, but he always said the
only good money was was to have fun with or.
Speaker 5 (19:55):
Did he have fun?
Speaker 4 (19:57):
But no, sir, he was too poor.
Speaker 7 (20:00):
Like I said, all right, Chester, all right, all I
ask is is you don't try to explain it to me.
Speaker 4 (20:07):
Well, but there's nothing to explain, mister Dylon. It's just.
Speaker 6 (20:13):
Marshall.
Speaker 8 (20:14):
Say you want to talk to Kane Vesta.
Speaker 5 (20:17):
Kane is upstairs in my office. He done shot, No,
not shot beat up? Well, how is he?
Speaker 9 (20:23):
Doc?
Speaker 8 (20:24):
Is not too bad? A couple of cowboys found him
just outside of town. They heard his shot and said
two men rode off before they could stop him. And
I guess whoever it was, they didn't have time to
finish the job. It just got started working on him.
Speaker 5 (20:37):
So Adams made the first move. I'll be back soon
in Chester.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
Yes, Dion.
Speaker 8 (20:46):
They hit him on the head with a gun button,
scratched him up some.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
Outside of that, he's fine.
Speaker 6 (20:53):
It's still a soul even if they didn't kill him. Doctor, Yeah,
I suppose it is.
Speaker 8 (20:57):
Anyway, they took a shot at him and they heard
those writers coming along, went right through his cool.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
Yeah. I probably think he's dead.
Speaker 8 (21:06):
So that's where you went, Doc, I might have known.
Speaker 5 (21:11):
Didn't even give you a chance to use that gun.
Did he came?
Speaker 8 (21:15):
I didn't have a gun on me, Marshall. But it
wasn't he, it was they.
Speaker 5 (21:19):
Huh did you recognize him?
Speaker 7 (21:22):
I don't know many people around here, you know, Joel Adams,
So you told me it wasn't Aim.
Speaker 5 (21:27):
Could you pick him out if you saw him again?
Speaker 8 (21:30):
No, m mm Marshall, I don't believe I could.
Speaker 5 (21:33):
Where were you when they grabbed you?
Speaker 8 (21:35):
Came into Front Street? I was taking a walk after supper.
They rode up behind me, one on each side, lifted
me up and carried me out of town A ways.
Speaker 7 (21:45):
You must have got a good look at him. At
least when they got off their horses.
Speaker 8 (21:49):
It was too dark.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
Marshall, Yeah, Doc, how long has he been here?
Speaker 7 (21:55):
Ooh?
Speaker 8 (21:55):
About half an hour?
Speaker 6 (21:56):
Martiall wise, those cowboys who saw you came.
Speaker 7 (21:59):
They brought you right in here, didn't they. Yeah, so
it was maybe an hour ago. When those two men
hold Joy out of town. There's plenty light enough then,
was it, Marshall. You're gonna fight at yourself, aren't you?
Speaker 8 (22:14):
Yes, Marshall, it's my affair.
Speaker 6 (22:17):
It was Kane.
Speaker 7 (22:18):
But you've been assaulted and shot at, so it's the
laws business now.
Speaker 8 (22:22):
I won't prefer any charges Marshall.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
You don't have to. I've seen you.
Speaker 5 (22:25):
I know who did it or who hired it done
as well as you.
Speaker 8 (22:27):
Do, Please, Marshall. I got to handle this my own way.
Speaker 7 (22:31):
There's a law that says you can't murder a man,
kan and the same law says he can't murder you.
Are you so full of hate you can't get that
through your head?
Speaker 8 (22:41):
I guess that's it, Marshall.
Speaker 7 (22:44):
All right, Kane, you do what you have to do,
so will I? Hello, Adams, I've been looking for you.
(23:20):
That's late, Dylan, can't you see me?
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (23:23):
It's not even midnight. That's early for you.
Speaker 6 (23:27):
You see this Marshal always trying to get me on
the proud boy. These boys are yours?
Speaker 7 (23:32):
Play pretty rough themselves, Adams, Meaning, didn't they tell you?
Speaker 6 (23:38):
Tell me what?
Speaker 5 (23:39):
But they did the Kane vessel.
Speaker 6 (23:40):
They did not kill Kane Vestal And you can't.
Speaker 5 (23:43):
Prove it now, Adams, I can't. Kane isn't even dead.
But you know, I'm curious, Adams, why do you think
he might be?
Speaker 6 (23:51):
Why somebody said he got himself hurt?
Speaker 5 (23:58):
You arrange this Marshal? You No, I didn't.
Speaker 4 (24:02):
Who is he?
Speaker 6 (24:03):
What does he want?
Speaker 8 (24:08):
Hello, Joel Adams, don't strain yourself so you don't know me?
Oh you Kane Vastell, But my name doesn't matter.
Speaker 6 (24:19):
What are you haunting me for? I never saw you
before my.
Speaker 8 (24:22):
Life, that's true, you didn't, but we had a friend
in common, ones a friend. Oh Julie Travis.
Speaker 5 (24:36):
What about Julie.
Speaker 8 (24:38):
You were a riverboat gambler then, Adams, and you had
money and fine clothes in a way with women, especially
young girls. Julie was only.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
Sixteen, if the don't mind all that.
Speaker 8 (24:49):
So she went away with you to be married.
Speaker 10 (24:51):
You told her, Oh, I think I guess the rest.
You wanted to marry her, but I got her instead,
That is, i'd.
Speaker 8 (25:01):
Said, Adams, that's exactly.
Speaker 6 (25:04):
Oh no, I thought you really had something on your mind.
Speaker 10 (25:07):
Vestal, Well, all right, why don't you get out of
here and quit bothering people while you can still walk?
Speaker 8 (25:13):
Julie killed herself, Adams, She committed suicide. What you didn't
know that, did you.
Speaker 5 (25:21):
It's got nothing to do with me.
Speaker 8 (25:22):
Because you never married her. After all, it was just
a year after you abandoned her in New Orleans. I
think it has a lot to do with you, Joel Adams.
Speaker 6 (25:35):
What are your plans? Mister?
Speaker 5 (25:37):
I see you got a gun in your belt?
Speaker 8 (25:40):
Gond to kid you?
Speaker 6 (25:41):
Or so?
Speaker 5 (25:42):
When?
Speaker 4 (25:43):
Now?
Speaker 1 (25:45):
Right now?
Speaker 6 (25:47):
All right, Vestal, draw the gun where it is?
Speaker 8 (25:50):
King One thing I always promise myself, Adams, someday i'd
spit in your face.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Why you.
Speaker 6 (26:09):
Give me the gun?
Speaker 5 (26:09):
Adams? Okay, he's dead.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
Well he was going to kill me. You heard him.
Speaker 5 (26:20):
He wanted your dad, Adams, anyway he could manage.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
I know what.
Speaker 6 (26:22):
That's what I say. You're under arrest for murder. What
it was a gunfight? He never even moved for his gun.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Well, then I'll hang for this.
Speaker 6 (26:38):
He couldn't have gotten me any other way.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
No, don't suppose he could have.
Speaker 10 (26:43):
Remember the river gamblers used to say, no matter how
you win, so long as you win.
Speaker 5 (26:50):
The king should have been a gambler. Maybe he was.
Come on, let's go.

You're just stirring up a lot of dust.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Well, cleanliness is next to godliness, mister Dillon.
Speaker 7 (01:35):
Yeah, I know, I know, Chester, But all you're doing
is getting it off the floor end of the air
man can hardly.
Speaker 6 (01:40):
Breathe in here.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
All right, I'll do my sweeping later.
Speaker 5 (01:48):
Good.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
My mother taught me that, mister Dylan, taught you what, Chester,
that cleanliness is next to godliness. She was a fine woman.
Speaker 6 (01:57):
Look, Chester, it's a good saying, and it's probably true.
Speaker 7 (02:00):
And I got nothing, I guess your mother except that
she also should have taught you how to sweep.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
Well, maybe she just didn't have the time, mister Dillon.
You see, there was an awful lot of us and
we with Chorge hollow.
Speaker 8 (02:10):
Doc, Come on, now, I'll.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
Buy a drink. What Doc said he'd buy a drink?
Mister Dylan, he really said that.
Speaker 8 (02:21):
You're coming.
Speaker 6 (02:23):
Doc.
Speaker 5 (02:23):
You got to quit throwing your money around the way
you do.
Speaker 8 (02:26):
Maybe you don't need to drink.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
No, wait a minute, doctor, I'm with you.
Speaker 7 (02:31):
I'll tell you all about it when I got back Chester.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
I'd be mighty interested.
Speaker 8 (02:34):
Mister Dillon, Oh, she'll be glad when it gets winder again.
Speaker 6 (02:44):
Why, Doc, you'll just complain about the cold. I suppose.
Speaker 8 (02:56):
You go sit with Kitty Matt. I'll bring about Liris.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
Okay, Doc, Hello Kitty.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Hello?
Speaker 6 (03:09):
What are you to Doc up to?
Speaker 5 (03:11):
He wants someone to talk to, so he picked me
and you fine.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
I'm a good listener. There's lots of practice.
Speaker 8 (03:25):
I said, you like Jamieson's. Don't you get in?
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Doc, what are we celebrating.
Speaker 8 (03:35):
We don't drink to a fellow that you don't know,
Cane Bestival.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
Well, here's him, yeah, him, Yes, he'll be dead in
a couple of months.
Speaker 8 (03:49):
Hot, that's what I told him. What do you mean, Doc,
I'm not the only one who's told him that. I'm
just the last.
Speaker 5 (03:57):
Well who is this Cane? Bestial doc?
Speaker 8 (04:00):
Oh, just a fellow came in on the train last
night leaving for Arizona tomorrow. That's where he's gonna die
in Arizona. He's a musician who plays the guitar.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Well, how's he gonna die?
Speaker 8 (04:15):
Consumption? He's got it bad, and the last doctor's gonna
ask about it, he says, poor fella climbing out there.
Keep him going for a little while longer. And oh,
I don't know he's he's such a sad man for.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Some Well, who wouldn't be, doctor, No.
Speaker 5 (04:33):
No, no, no kidding.
Speaker 8 (04:35):
I think Cane has been sad for a long long time.
The very nice fellow into.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Nothing can help him?
Speaker 8 (04:43):
Huh no, nothing.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
And that's funny thing.
Speaker 7 (04:47):
Doctor, Just sitting here thinking, sometimes you have to tell
men they're gonna die.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
Sometimes I have.
Speaker 8 (04:55):
To let me see that fellow with the out there
he just came in. Yeah, I don't think he knows
anyone around here. You mind if I asked him over
sure your party?
Speaker 6 (05:08):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (05:08):
Good, h Ken can over here?
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (05:19):
Yeah, ah, sa Sadan game, This is kitty hell Okay,
this is Marshall Dylan.
Speaker 5 (05:28):
Pleasure to meet you.
Speaker 8 (05:31):
Heah yeah, I have a drink. Well, thank you.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Doc.
Speaker 5 (05:38):
Is your first trip west, Kane, Yes, Marshall, it is.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
But where are you from?
Speaker 8 (05:44):
No place in particular, Miss Kitty. I seem to spend
most of my life on the Mississippi River.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
I thought you were a musician. I am.
Speaker 8 (05:56):
I was hired to ride the river boats and play
my guitar for a passenger.
Speaker 6 (06:02):
Or at least you've had a constant change of scenery.
Speaker 8 (06:06):
After twenty years agoing up and down that river, it
got pretty familiar, Marshall Cane. I knew young fellow back
in Saint Louis for the war, and he was learning
to be a river pilot.
Speaker 9 (06:15):
See.
Speaker 8 (06:15):
I wonder if you ever ran into him name of
Clemens Sam Clevens. No, Doc, I don't believe I did.
Speaker 6 (06:21):
He was a very amusing fella.
Speaker 8 (06:23):
You were just chock full of stories. You leaving Dodge tomorrow, King,
I'm headed fire Arizona, Miss Kitty. No reflection on Dodge, though.
Speaker 7 (06:34):
If you had a place out there called Tombstone, I
wish you'd look.
Speaker 5 (06:38):
Up Virgil Alert for me, tell him I sent you.
Speaker 8 (06:40):
Huh, thanks, Marshall, I'll do that.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Say Kane. I wonder could I ask you a favor.
Speaker 8 (06:48):
I certainly, Miss Kitty, anything at all.
Speaker 6 (06:51):
Or would you play something for us?
Speaker 8 (06:53):
I had an idea that's what it'd be, anything in particular,
something you like Kane, another girl I knew used to
like this one.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
I wish you were going to stay here a while.
Maybe you could teach me to.
Speaker 8 (08:44):
Play like That would be a pleasure, Miss Kitty, But
I'm afraid I won't be around for long.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
More than mister Dillon. It's a noon Chester, Yes, sir,
I know, but you went off with Doc yesterday, so
I figured I had a little time coming today.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
Well that depends on how you spent it. Now, if
you've been gambling, I am.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
Now, mister Dylon. You know I never gambled, you know, sir.
I was out helping a fellow learn to shoot a
six gun, that's all.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Now.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
You mean there's a man in Dodger who doesn't know
how This fellow don't never had one in his hand before.
He's a musician. It plays the guitar, he told me.
Speaker 5 (09:36):
I mean Cain Caine Vestal.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Yeah, so that's his name. Nicer fellow you'd ever want
to meet.
Speaker 7 (09:42):
Yeah, But he was supposed to leave on the stage
this morning. And what's he done with a six gun?
Speaker 5 (09:48):
Anyway?
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Well, I don't know, mister Dillon. He just come by
here early this morning and asked me if i'd teach him.
Speaker 5 (09:54):
Now where'd he got the gun?
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Said?
Speaker 6 (09:55):
He just bought it.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
Anything wrong, mister.
Speaker 5 (09:59):
Dillon, No, No, it just doesn't add up somehow.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
So well, he won't cause any trouble. He's off the short.
You never know, Chester, No, sir, My kitty looks pretty
this morning. She's got a yellow parasol, mister Dylan.
Speaker 7 (10:18):
Kitty, I think I'll go see her for a minute.
I'll be right back, Chester, Kitty. How on that, Kitty,
(10:39):
I'd like to talk.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
To you for a minute.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Sure, what is it? Uh?
Speaker 5 (10:43):
I'm curious about something, Kitty. Maybe you can help me.
How long was Kane Vessel with you yesterday?
Speaker 10 (10:50):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Well he didn't leave till evening.
Speaker 7 (10:54):
Why well, he didn't go out on the stage this morning,
and he's bought himself a six gun.
Speaker 5 (11:00):
Are you any idea why.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Doesn't sound like Kane.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
Anything happened yesterday, Kitty? Or did he tell you anything? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (11:10):
There was one thing. Matt Joel Adams and a couple
of his men came in King got pretty upset when
he saw him had a bad coffin spell. Later, he
asked a lot of questions about Adams.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
Well, what'd you tell him?
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Just that Adams is a big landown around here, that
nobody wasn't working for him, likes him very much, That's
all I know.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Anyway, they didn't talk Adamson Kane.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
No, I don't think they even know each other anyway.
Speaker 5 (11:41):
He sure isn't the sort to be packing a gun.
Speaker 8 (11:43):
You'll just get into trouble.
Speaker 6 (11:44):
Matt.
Speaker 5 (11:45):
Yeah. Where's he's staying? He say, Dodge House? I think, Thanks, Kitty,
I'll see you later.
Speaker 8 (12:31):
Come in, hello, Kane, Marshall, Dylon, come in, come in,
thank you. What can I do for you? Marshall?
Speaker 5 (12:45):
I uh, I thought you were leaving Dodge on the
stage this morning.
Speaker 8 (12:50):
Well I was, Marshall, but I changed my mind, you
know how?
Speaker 7 (12:53):
Sure, okay, Sure, I We're glad to have you around.
I'm just curious though you're stay and have anything to
do with that gun you bought this one?
Speaker 8 (13:04):
Oh just had told you. I thought he would. He's
a good teacher. Marshall.
Speaker 5 (13:11):
Yeah, but that doesn't answer my question.
Speaker 8 (13:16):
Do I have to answer?
Speaker 5 (13:18):
I'm just trying to help you, that's all.
Speaker 8 (13:21):
Yeah, I appreciate that, Marshall, but I'm afraid there's nothing
you can do.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Look, Caan, you're new in this country. Man like you
just can't pick up a six gun and call himself
a fighting man, not an expect to live through it.
Speaker 8 (13:36):
I certainly lay no claim to be a fighting man.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
And why did you buy that gun?
Speaker 8 (13:44):
There's no law out here against a man having a
gun is in Marshall, No, But.
Speaker 7 (13:48):
Any man who carries one is expected to use it
when the time comes. It'd be a lot safer without one.
Speaker 8 (13:56):
Being safe doesn't mean a whole lot to me, Marshall,
not now.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
Yeah, I know, Doc told me what's it all about.
Speaker 8 (14:12):
It's a long story, and I know one I suppose.
I'd really rather not talk about it.
Speaker 7 (14:20):
I can't force you to, but but tell me this.
Does it have anything to do with Joel Adams?
Speaker 8 (14:27):
Yes it does, Marshall. I'm gonna kill him when I
don't know anytime.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
Why.
Speaker 8 (14:39):
That's a long story. I mentioned.
Speaker 5 (14:42):
All right, Kane, But.
Speaker 7 (14:44):
If you try to face him, he'll kill you before
you got that gun halfway out.
Speaker 5 (14:47):
Of your belt. And if you shoot him any other way,
you'll hang for it.
Speaker 8 (14:52):
You've forgotten something, Marshall. What No matter what I do,
I'm gonna die soon anyway, A month or two gonna
make any difference. You hate Adams that much. I wouldn't
kill a man I didn't hate what.
Speaker 5 (15:06):
I didn't think you were the sort of man who'd
kill anyone.
Speaker 8 (15:10):
Only Joel Adams Marshall, and I got to warn him
about you. I understand, Marshall.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
It's all right.
Speaker 8 (15:18):
He doesn't know me anyway, never even saw me before.
Speaker 5 (15:21):
But you want to kill him?
Speaker 7 (15:23):
Yes, well, i'll take your gun away from it, but
you just find another one, and I can't arrest you
unless I catch you trying to bushwhack him. I'm sorry
for the trouble i'm causing you, Marshall. You know I've
never had to deal with a man like you before.
King Maybe I ought to just tie you up and
throw you on that stage.
Speaker 8 (15:42):
You could, but i'd just come right back.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
I guess you wouldn't.
Speaker 8 (15:50):
I'm sorry this has to happen here and dodge Marshall,
Then why don't you leave? I guess I hate Joel
Adams too much? All right, Kane, I'm through trying to
convince you so long, buy Marshall.
Speaker 7 (16:31):
I never heard of Kane Vestal Marshal, and I never
saw him before last night.
Speaker 5 (16:35):
You must have known him somewhere, Adams.
Speaker 6 (16:37):
You're trying to make me out a liar, Marshall.
Speaker 7 (16:40):
I'm trying to save Kane's life in yours. Maybe Oh,
he ain't gonna shoot me. I'll kill him first time
he looks side. What maybe you won't see him? Oh
shoot me in the back?
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Eh?
Speaker 5 (16:52):
Well in that case, In that case, what?
Speaker 6 (16:57):
Why?
Speaker 8 (16:57):
Nothing?
Speaker 6 (16:57):
Doing nothing?
Speaker 5 (16:59):
I get it. If Kane shot in the back, you'll
be the first man i'd take in that.
Speaker 6 (17:03):
I don't even know him. Why should I shoot him?
Speaker 5 (17:05):
I'm only warning it.
Speaker 6 (17:05):
Well, just leave me be, Marshall. I can take care
of myself.
Speaker 5 (17:08):
See that you do, Adams, and only yourself.
Speaker 10 (17:10):
Why sure, Marshall, I don't much like the idea of
some stranger gunning for me.
Speaker 5 (17:16):
Makes me sot of uneasy. There must be some reason
for it.
Speaker 7 (17:19):
Don't start it again, Marshall, ain't no reason. I know
you've led a blameless life. You never heard anyone.
Speaker 6 (17:24):
I told you twice there are men around here.
Speaker 7 (17:25):
Who'd shoot you on site if they thought they could
get by with it. I don't think you were ever
any good, Adams, so don't tell me it. Kine's got
no reason.
Speaker 6 (17:32):
I don't talk, that's all.
Speaker 7 (17:36):
Maybe it's true you don't know him, but he sure
knows something about you well, and I wish you didn't.
Speaker 6 (17:40):
That's all I got to say.
Speaker 7 (17:42):
We'll just keep out of his way, get a little time,
and maybe there won't be any killing at all.
Speaker 6 (17:48):
Why sure, sure, all the time in the world.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
All right, Adams, I've done all I can.
Speaker 6 (17:57):
Just don't worry about me.
Speaker 5 (17:59):
I'm not. Then, goodbye, Marshall, goodbye.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
We will return for the second act of gun Smoke
in just a moment, but first, back tomorrow night. Pull
up your chair, or better still, roll back your rug.
It's The Von Monroe Show returning to the Starres address.
Listen for Vaughn, the moon Maids, the Moonmen in their
wonderful way with popular music and songs once again at
their old familiar Saturday night time on CBS Radio. Remember
(18:42):
they're coming back tomorrow night. You and the whole family
are invited to this season scintillating premiere of The Von
Monroe Show on most of these same stations. Now the
second act of gun smoke.
Speaker 4 (19:19):
Sure he is quiet around town tonight, mister Dillon.
Speaker 5 (19:22):
Yeah, there's a trailherd doing a couple of days. I
suppose business will pick up.
Speaker 4 (19:30):
Then you think those cowboys be too tuckered out after it.
I'd like that to have any juice left in them,
A tall, mister Dillon.
Speaker 5 (19:37):
They're too poor to cut loose any other time.
Speaker 4 (19:40):
Well, that don't stopping down in Texas, mister Dillon. No,
it's just like an uncle mine back in Waco.
Speaker 8 (19:47):
He was poor.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Oh he was mean poor, but he always said the
only good money was was to have fun with or.
Speaker 5 (19:55):
Did he have fun?
Speaker 4 (19:57):
But no, sir, he was too poor.
Speaker 7 (20:00):
Like I said, all right, Chester, all right, all I
ask is is you don't try to explain it to me.
Speaker 4 (20:07):
Well, but there's nothing to explain, mister Dylon. It's just.
Speaker 6 (20:13):
Marshall.
Speaker 8 (20:14):
Say you want to talk to Kane Vesta.
Speaker 5 (20:17):
Kane is upstairs in my office. He done shot, No,
not shot beat up? Well, how is he?
Speaker 9 (20:23):
Doc?
Speaker 8 (20:24):
Is not too bad? A couple of cowboys found him
just outside of town. They heard his shot and said
two men rode off before they could stop him. And
I guess whoever it was, they didn't have time to
finish the job. It just got started working on him.
Speaker 5 (20:37):
So Adams made the first move. I'll be back soon
in Chester.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
Yes, Dion.
Speaker 8 (20:46):
They hit him on the head with a gun button,
scratched him up some.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
Outside of that, he's fine.
Speaker 6 (20:53):
It's still a soul even if they didn't kill him. Doctor, Yeah,
I suppose it is.
Speaker 8 (20:57):
Anyway, they took a shot at him and they heard
those writers coming along, went right through his cool.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
Yeah. I probably think he's dead.
Speaker 8 (21:06):
So that's where you went, Doc, I might have known.
Speaker 5 (21:11):
Didn't even give you a chance to use that gun.
Did he came?
Speaker 8 (21:15):
I didn't have a gun on me, Marshall. But it
wasn't he, it was they.
Speaker 5 (21:19):
Huh did you recognize him?
Speaker 7 (21:22):
I don't know many people around here, you know, Joel Adams,
So you told me it wasn't Aim.
Speaker 5 (21:27):
Could you pick him out if you saw him again?
Speaker 8 (21:30):
No, m mm Marshall, I don't believe I could.
Speaker 5 (21:33):
Where were you when they grabbed you?
Speaker 8 (21:35):
Came into Front Street? I was taking a walk after supper.
They rode up behind me, one on each side, lifted
me up and carried me out of town A ways.
Speaker 7 (21:45):
You must have got a good look at him. At
least when they got off their horses.
Speaker 8 (21:49):
It was too dark.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
Marshall, Yeah, Doc, how long has he been here?
Speaker 7 (21:55):
Ooh?
Speaker 8 (21:55):
About half an hour?
Speaker 6 (21:56):
Martiall wise, those cowboys who saw you came.
Speaker 7 (21:59):
They brought you right in here, didn't they. Yeah, so
it was maybe an hour ago. When those two men
hold Joy out of town. There's plenty light enough then,
was it, Marshall. You're gonna fight at yourself, aren't you?
Speaker 8 (22:14):
Yes, Marshall, it's my affair.
Speaker 6 (22:17):
It was Kane.
Speaker 7 (22:18):
But you've been assaulted and shot at, so it's the
laws business now.
Speaker 8 (22:22):
I won't prefer any charges Marshall.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
You don't have to. I've seen you.
Speaker 5 (22:25):
I know who did it or who hired it done
as well as you.
Speaker 8 (22:27):
Do, Please, Marshall. I got to handle this my own way.
Speaker 7 (22:31):
There's a law that says you can't murder a man,
kan and the same law says he can't murder you.
Are you so full of hate you can't get that
through your head?
Speaker 8 (22:41):
I guess that's it, Marshall.
Speaker 7 (22:44):
All right, Kane, you do what you have to do,
so will I? Hello, Adams, I've been looking for you.
(23:20):
That's late, Dylan, can't you see me?
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (23:23):
It's not even midnight. That's early for you.
Speaker 6 (23:27):
You see this Marshal always trying to get me on
the proud boy. These boys are yours?
Speaker 7 (23:32):
Play pretty rough themselves, Adams, Meaning, didn't they tell you?
Speaker 6 (23:38):
Tell me what?
Speaker 5 (23:39):
But they did the Kane vessel.
Speaker 6 (23:40):
They did not kill Kane Vestal And you can't.
Speaker 5 (23:43):
Prove it now, Adams, I can't. Kane isn't even dead.
But you know, I'm curious, Adams, why do you think
he might be?
Speaker 6 (23:51):
Why somebody said he got himself hurt?
Speaker 5 (23:58):
You arrange this Marshal? You No, I didn't.
Speaker 4 (24:02):
Who is he?
Speaker 6 (24:03):
What does he want?
Speaker 8 (24:08):
Hello, Joel Adams, don't strain yourself so you don't know me?
Oh you Kane Vastell, But my name doesn't matter.
Speaker 6 (24:19):
What are you haunting me for? I never saw you
before my.
Speaker 8 (24:22):
Life, that's true, you didn't, but we had a friend
in common, ones a friend. Oh Julie Travis.
Speaker 5 (24:36):
What about Julie.
Speaker 8 (24:38):
You were a riverboat gambler then, Adams, and you had
money and fine clothes in a way with women, especially
young girls. Julie was only.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
Sixteen, if the don't mind all that.
Speaker 8 (24:49):
So she went away with you to be married.
Speaker 10 (24:51):
You told her, Oh, I think I guess the rest.
You wanted to marry her, but I got her instead,
That is, i'd.
Speaker 8 (25:01):
Said, Adams, that's exactly.
Speaker 6 (25:04):
Oh no, I thought you really had something on your mind.
Speaker 10 (25:07):
Vestal, Well, all right, why don't you get out of
here and quit bothering people while you can still walk?
Speaker 8 (25:13):
Julie killed herself, Adams, She committed suicide. What you didn't
know that, did you.
Speaker 5 (25:21):
It's got nothing to do with me.
Speaker 8 (25:22):
Because you never married her. After all, it was just
a year after you abandoned her in New Orleans. I
think it has a lot to do with you, Joel Adams.
Speaker 6 (25:35):
What are your plans? Mister?
Speaker 5 (25:37):
I see you got a gun in your belt?
Speaker 8 (25:40):
Gond to kid you?
Speaker 6 (25:41):
Or so?
Speaker 5 (25:42):
When?
Speaker 4 (25:43):
Now?
Speaker 1 (25:45):
Right now?
Speaker 6 (25:47):
All right, Vestal, draw the gun where it is?
Speaker 8 (25:50):
King One thing I always promise myself, Adams, someday i'd
spit in your face.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Why you.
Speaker 6 (26:09):
Give me the gun?
Speaker 5 (26:09):
Adams? Okay, he's dead.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
Well he was going to kill me. You heard him.
Speaker 5 (26:20):
He wanted your dad, Adams, anyway he could manage.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
I know what.
Speaker 6 (26:22):
That's what I say. You're under arrest for murder. What
it was a gunfight? He never even moved for his gun.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Well, then I'll hang for this.
Speaker 6 (26:38):
He couldn't have gotten me any other way.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
No, don't suppose he could have.
Speaker 10 (26:43):
Remember the river gamblers used to say, no matter how
you win, so long as you win.
Speaker 5 (26:50):
The king should have been a gambler. Maybe he was.
Come on, let's go.
