Gunsmoke presents “Drop Dead,” episode 22 of the classic CBS radio series, originally broadcast September 20, 1952. In this local archival recording, William Conrad stars as U.S. Marshal Matt Dillon; the episode was written by Les Crutchfield and directed by Norman Macdonnell.
As a punishing Kansas drought strains cattlemen and ranchers alike, a dispute over access to Cottonwood Pond threatens to turn violent. Dillon, Chester, Doc, and Kitty are drawn into a tense conflict of property rights, survival, and frontier law.
Gunsmoke presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned and mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
