Synopsis by Hal Erickson

William Hopper guest stars as John Henry Jordan, a debonair holdup man who has convinced the people of Dodge City that he is a modern-day Robin Hood, stealing from the rich to give to the poor. Much to the frustration of Matt Dillon (James Arness), Jordan manages to beat an attempted-murder rap by persuading witnesses Mr. and Mrs. Bowen (Barry Atwater, Nora Marlowe) that he acted with the noblest of intentions. Ultimately, Jordan will reveal himself as a cold-blood murderer--but by then, it may be too late for the hapless Bowens. This episode is based on the Gunsmoke) radio broadcast of January 8, 1955.
