 in the territory on west there's just one way to handle the killers of the spoilers and that's with a u.s. marshal and the smell of gondates marshal the first man they look for that you got no call to haul me in so rough it's your legs real bad ain't done nothing to get drugged around like this get in there there they come I wasn't hurting him none his relatives won't look at it that way they'd call it grave robin I wasn't gonna must things up none I just sort of looking for some things they might have buried with a marshal like well it sure wasn't doing him no now you listen to me read you're a fool but that's no excuse in the first place those Indians don't bury anything with their dead that you'd want an old pipe maybe a ricotta grease or a horses tail but even so they don't look kindly on grave robin they'd have caught you before I did you'd be needing a grave by now or you'd be praying for one anyway and the whole countryside would be in danger of an uprising now you're gonna stay in jail for a while but my leg marshal it's still bleeding all right I'll have doc take a look at it if I can get him to come over here trust him yes you don't get back with him yes well but if it was me I just soon let him bleed today I would too Chester but that way we'd have a job of burying him guess you're right there mr. Dillon I'll go get the more that whiskey Sam look at the law I'll do that miss kitty but it sure ain't very good and that's the fact that's the best we can get the size of the men that come in here wouldn't pay for any better most of them wouldn't know the difference anyway oh kitty you want to drink well that ain't exactly what I come in here about but what's on your mind well I've been all over town looking for doc I guess I had worked up quite a thirst to that beard go down real good give him a beer Sam coming up cracking somebody down his shore dry work there you are thank you kindly for the beer miss kitty you should have come in here first Chester I could have saved you getting so thirsty how come a doctor's in earlier on his way out south of town someplace he said he wouldn't be back till tomorrow well I swear I sure don't know what the good of being a doctor he ain't gonna be around when you're needing to slow down Chester doc didn't go off on a pleasure trip you know who needs him or mr. Dunn turned me out to find him and bring him back with me that might hurt oh no ma'am it ain't him it's that no good Joe red we caught out there climbing up on an Indian bearing place he hurt his leg when we pulled him down he's carrying on something awful about it well he'll just have to wait till doc gets back tomorrow I beg your pardon yeah I couldn't help over hearing there's no secret about it sound as though I might be able to help my name is Milford brand I'm a doctor oh what's good of your doctor brand is it Chester proud for I do proud foot why don't you take Dr. Brand over the jail Chester he can look at Joe Reds leg all right I'll do that miss kitty maybe he'll have to cut it clean off well works a little slow Chester how long have been since you cleaned it well not too long look at it you can see that it's dirty catch right after last time we ain't too bad oh by now go what are you doing you figured I'm starting the war just want to be able to finish it if one gets started doc we was only checking over the gun is all I can don't mean we're planning to shoot nobody we had to hear that oh so you still got Joe red locked up yeah how's his life now he's stopped complaining anyway well that could mean it's better a lot worse you want to see him no no he's Dr. Brand's patient let him handle it you mean that other doc is still in dodge he's still here and is going to stay here just him huh he's gonna take up doctor in here that's what the time it why he can't do that and why can't he well this is your time doc that's why he can't oh now wait a minute ain't no two ways about it he can't come in here in his darn city suit and start drumming away you all that can you keep going on like an old woman with your quiet down on that doctor now listen to me for a minute this town is getting bigger all the time we can use another doctor we don't need no more no I don't mind a little help and it just plain foolishness and say that you don't want a doctor because you don't like the cut of your suit well now I never said I'm gonna go to the dodge house and see if I can help him to get started with and if you have any sense of all just about what you can give him a shot and give him a chance you might even yourself someday well now just what did you think of that Mr. Dillon well I tell you Chester from the way dark does left here I think you better stay healthy for a while from Dr. Brand understand Philadelphia is developed into quite a medical center oh yes indeed several medical schools there newest methods and procedures are taught now it doesn't look much like God's city oh no you'll get your hands dirty here that's a fact my office is just up those stairs that's very kind of you Dr. Adam oh no trouble no trouble at all you'll be welcome to use my office and do them have time to set up in a place of your own I hardly think I wish many a time there was somebody around to help with the load yeah there's another room in equipment doctor fits right into that black bag my laboratory travels with me well how are you able to keep up on the current studies on research well doctor not it doesn't give them how much time for study research it's too busy keeping folks alive anyway can whether it's in the book or not but maybe now it's over here and can help out with the worker I'll have a little more time Dr. Adams yeah perhaps we'd better get something straight I didn't come to Dodd city to be your assistant I intend to practice medicine in a professional and scientific manner we're sure you do not brandy sure you do I just hope you'll be able to the times are inclined to eat too much or to eat foods that disagree the results acid indigestion heartburn or gas so remember this you do you know what you come six roll pack with free metal carrier only 49 cents food taste accounts it's what it does for you that's what I'm afraid of now wasn't that bad you know you're pretty squeamish for a man of your hip well maybe so but I'd hate to know the bloodlines of that stew I just ate wait a minute a matter of their Zach will I want to ask him about his wife I'm sure that Zach Zach Willard oh come on over here I want to talk to you a minute I want to ask you about murder Zach she feeling anybody why yeah Doc she's better good that medicine we tried her must be doing the job huh I've been trying to get out there for a week Zach you tell my little it I'll be by to see her real well I'll tell her Doc but ain't no need for you to come by sure I'll come Zach I may have to neglect my patients for a while but I always get there eventually well the Myrtles took the doctrine a little different she has well as long as she's feeling better I'll come by and check on what she's doing well you see well Myrtles doctrine with the new Doc now he comes out every day oh I see Dr. Brand who tell me that I'm glad she's feeling better is that the common Kansas complaint too much dust too much loneliness too much prayer it's good to have a visit every day from a doctor I never had the time funny thing though what's that I have the time from now on you ought to do something what do you want me to do kitty lock him up throw him out of town I'm serious Dr. Brand needs talking to he's going around as though he's the only man who ever had a medical degree so Doc isn't anything more than a medicine man well does he actually come right out and talk against Doc doesn't come right out and say anything that he's too smart for that he sure gets the idea across I wish you would knock some sense into him kitty as long as he doesn't poison those patients I can't do anything about excuse me Joe Red just came in I want to talk to him much like a man who's going to stay out of trouble Joe you to stay out of trouble or stay out of dodge it's liquor the law against breaking the peace and I think you better get out of town until you sober up well look Marshall I got a right to be here I got a right to be in dodge a man's got a right to see his doctor now tell me you came in to see Dr. Brand I come in to see Dr. Brand a man has a right it isn't your health that interests me Joe but you cause any trouble and you're gonna go to jail sick or well now you go on and you see your doctor then you get out of town that's what's the matter with it it's only good for a buffalo grass that's it can do is grow a cottonwood you can dry it all day and all night and it don't never change up I swear I don't know what they'll spoke settlin in a place like this now you ought to know Chester you settled here or I ain't either settle here well you've been in dodge a good many years now you live there your friends are there I call that settled well now that may look like settling to you but I ain't about ready to settle nowhere you can't miss doing right over there next to that little solid house that man there he's signaling to us let's go over and see what he wants to the marshal nature yeah I'm the marshal what can I do for you well I'll tell you I mean much for cotton and up to the law but right now it's a choice between the law and an Indian uprising what are you talking about them poor need to go on the war path as they found out about it sure shoot oh come on mister tell me what happened why it's a grave little grave out on the prairie that Indian grave up on them poles what happened to it nothing happened to the grave marshal it's still there all right what's the trouble it's the body body yeah somebody made off with it clean as a whistle them Indians are always stopping by come on let's get back to town if you do with that body what body marshal I ain't killed nobody don't get smart with me right or I'll break you in two now I'm talking about the body you took from that party grave last night I can't be near no grave you haven't got much time read you better start talking to see for a minute can't wait a little while dark and I think it might be important that all right but make it fast with you I want to get the truth out of this man before it's too late it won't take off Chester lock him up huh I'm coming right back to you read you better have your story ready but I ain't got no story marshal even if you beat me to death I might do that too come on red get right now doc what's on your mind it's about that doctor brain I haven't got time to worry about how you two are getting a lot of listening to me man all right doc shoot but it seems to me that there's something mighty peculiar going on in those rooms that brand is set up to practice it now I know he takes great stock and being as up to date and scientific as possible that's all right that's a good thing but I think this is going a little too far but you get to the point doc all right man doctor brand keeps a body in the back room of his office body professional call on dr. brand this is a matter you'll have fun verifying each Sunday night when the Mitch Miller show brings sparkling show business chatter your way over most of the CBS radio stations I mean that you keep a body in your back room is that right it isn't exactly a body marshal it's a skeleton yes I do keep it back there it's helpful in my study where did it come from I'm not sure it's any of your business more it's my business all right where did you get the skeleton doctor Adams as a medical man is it necessary for me to answer these questions I think you better answer that one doctor well as a matter of fact marshal it was a lucky find I procured the skeleton quite near Dodd City you better hope you're lucky it came from an Indian grave doesn't it well yes it did who got it for you I got it myself marshal I took a wagon and got it myself Joe red told me about it but he was afraid to go out there again I managed all right without him that's the first time I ever heard of Joe red being smart now listen doctor brand as soon as it's dark we're going to take that skeleton right back where it came from we'll bring the wagon by and you'll be ready come now marshal Dylan aren't you making a mountain out of a molehill every good medical officer should have a skeleton to refuel you'll have to provide your own doctor brand this one is private property but it was just an Indian I don't know how you think about things where you come from brand but Robin a grave any grave it's considered a crime out here more than that you place the whole countryside in danger these Indians visit their graves and if they come and find a body gone they won't like it dr. Barnett if they came to me and ask me who stole it I'd tell him turning a man over to tell you something if I had a choice of whether to turn you when I let the Indians start an uprising over something you did it wouldn't take me very long to make up my mind so you just be ready and bring that skeleton out as soon as it gets dark we got the weapons back on all right just oh I think we've done a real nice job I don't think they meant in 11 o'clock the thing about let's hope not oh he's sitting down there in the wagon with dr. Brandt all right let's go John yeah look yonder on that ridge over there and make too bright but it sure looks like Indians me yeah and they're headed this way let's get down off of your quick chest and get back to the wagon here I'm gonna do the talking to them grave of your brother's brother too there may be new ways of doing things in the medical schools doctor but folks out here have learned a lot about staying alive and had a hard way of learning and beginning to understand that Dr. Hems good come on Matt now let's get back to town somebody might be needing this doctor continues to pass car after car in sales in state after state rambler now outsells all but two other makes come see why drive the success car at your rambler dealer and by John Meston featured in the cast were Jack Moyles, Vic Perrin, Ralph Moody, James Nussar and Howard Culver, Pahry Baer is Chester, Howard McNear is Doc and Georgia Ellis is Kitty this is George Walsh inviting you to join us again next week for another story on gun smoke
