For all you " Gunsmoke TV Fans" This is where Gunsmoke started. ....on old time radio. 1940's. I listened to it as a child on radio. Then as young woman with my new family on TV with James Arness. Until 1970's with the 5 Gunsmoke movies when Matt was older and left Dodge to live with his daughter Beth and then a son in law and grand baby. Now I'm 80 and I listen to an old radio Gunsmoke before going to sleep at night . THAT IS FULL CIRCLE GUNSMOKE FAN.....I ENJOY THE RADIO VERSIONS. We also watch 3 to 4 Gunsmoke hour and even black and white half hour shows every day on TV. I have the very first TV Gunsmoke show with introduction by John Wayne on tape. He was first choice for Matt Dillon part. But his movie contracts wouldn't let him so he recommended his friend James Arness. What a show history. Thank you for posting these old radio 📻

I'm 64 and I think they're great too. I'm a little too young to have caught the original radio episodes or to view the earliest half-hour TV episodes (my TV version preference; more Dillon and gritty reality in them, less of the townspeople and the silly problems and romances that pad the 1-hr versions), but I've caught up with them all using KZbin!

The radio show started in 1951 not the 1940's.

John Dehner played both the feeble-sounding old man Tewksberry and the deep-voiced Danvers at 17:08.

Probably a fairly accurate account of how white people got hysterical about Indians every now and then, sometimes leading to bloody disaster.

Absolutely there probably were episodes like this but were only because of actual raids. I'm sure many people of that time grew up hearing stories shared by their great grandparents and grandparents of Indian attacks in the colonial period. Books such as Indian Depredations In Texas by J. W. Wilbarger written in 1889, record incidents from the 1830s to the 1880s. Most were raids on isolated farms and ranches or attacks on travelers but there were attacks on large towns especially in the 1830s and 40s, San Antonio and more famously Indianola, a port town on the Texas Gulf coast that was raided by the Comanches, the community burned to the ground and the surviving townsfolk driven to boats and ships anchored offshore. Incredible story.

@@brianboisguilbert6985 From your examples I bet you're a Texan like me. I'm in Austin and I'm pretty sure I've read somewhere that Comanches once raided on Congress Avenue.
