Very good ..its like I was watching a movie

Dramatic radio has that effect on people. 😀 This episode was later adapted for television {April 4, 1959}.

I have always been amazed by the creators and writers of Gunsmoke radio episodes for their foresight and advanced thinking on matters like racism and the way they included their compassionate thinking towards it. They must have been very very intelligent people.

John Meston wrote the best scripts.

I loved it

Wow, a relatively happy ending - seems like a rarity for these old Gunsmoke programs

[@howardoller443]

The Wild West was full of pathos and tragedy.

I really liked this one. The right people got knocked out and the right people lived happily ever after.

Originally broadcast on September 26, 1953. The last "sustaining" episode for a while, as General Foods [for Post cereals], became the first regular sponsor of the series the following week.

A very touching episode which truly highlights the bigoted ways of years gone past... 14 Apr 2024

A little bit sugary, but the racism was well done for a programme that was released in the1950s when things were very different.

Old Trail is the theme song
