Someone has shot Hank Marble in the back, leaving his pretty young wife and a son, Beanie, without a husband and father. Hank didn’t seem to have any enemies, so it was shocking when Beanie found him on the ground by the creek shot dead. Marshal Dillon and Chester head out to the Marble ranch to investigate.
