Some old love letters from Jethro lead a mountain man and his daughter to Beverly Hills.

Muriel Landers (October 27, 1921 -- February 19, 1977) was an American actress, singer and dancer. She made over 30 film and television appearances between 1950 and 1971.

Modern viewers will recognize Landers as Joe Besser's sister "Tiny" in the Three Stooges film Sweet and Hot. In this episode, Landers sang "Let's Fall in Love", revealing a strong and sultry singing voice." Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Landers made television appearances on such shows as Lidsville, Hogan's Heroes, The Jack Benny Show, The Red Skelton Show and The Beverly Hillbillies. Landers also made a memorable appearance in The Twilight Zone episode "A Piano in the House", playing Marge Moore, an overweight woman who is forced to reveal her inner sadness about feeling unloved and unwanted because of her girth. And in the 1970s she played MOMMY HOODOO in the Sid and Marty Kroft production of Lidsville.

Landers suffered from hypertension and diabetes in the final years of her life. She died of a stroke on February 19, 1977, and is interred at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Los Angeles, California.

Peter Whitney, (May 24, 1916 -- March 30, 1972) was an American actor in film and television. Born as Peter King Engle in Long Branch, New Jersey, Whitney's corpulent, heavy build qualified him to play villains in many Hollywood movies in the 1940s and 1950s.

From the late 1950s, he was more prolific playing character roles in many television series, including The Public Defender, Gunsmoke, Combat!, City Detective, My Friend Flicka ("A Case of Honor"), Sheriff of Cochise, Behind Closed Doors, Northwest Passage, Tombstone Territory (episode "Apache Vendetta"), Overland Trail (as Governor Sutcliff in episode "First Stage to Denver"), Wagon Train, The Rifleman (nine times), Bonanza, The Monkees, Perry Mason, The Beverly Hillbillies, and Hawaii Five-O.

From 1958-1959, Whitney had a co-starring role as Buck Sinclair, a former sergeant of the Union Army, in all thirty-nine episodes of the ABC western series The Rough Riders.

One of his The Rifleman appearances was in "Mail Order Groom" (1960), in which Whitney portrayed John Jupiter, a man of great physical strength being harassed by two townsmen, played by John Anderson and Sandy Kenyon, who had quarreled with Whitney's intended spinster bride, Isabel Dent, played by Alice Backes (1923--2007). Whitney also played a French partisan fighter named Massine in a 1963 episode of the T.V. series Combat!, titled "Thunder from the Hill."

His final role was as a grave robber in writer Rod Serling's Night Gallery. Whitney died of a heart attack shortly afterwards at the age of fifty-five.
