Spellman in the leg, resulting in Travers killing the guard and wounding the
driver. Being wounded himself, Spellman has a difficult time keeping up with
Travers and Aikens and is left to fend for himself. When the stage gets to
Dodge the robbery is reported to Matt who takes off after the criminals,
leaving Festus in charge in town. Doc is feeling really bad because he
thought the driver would live, but died from the wounds. Kitty suggests that
as long as he has to ride to Pearl Miller's place, a goodly distance out of
Dodge, to deliver her baby that he take a fishing pole along and get a

couple of days rest. Doc takes her advice and tries to sneak out of town
without Festus finding out. Matt follows the outlaw's trail to Benson Flats
and Mr. Tonkins' farm. Tonkins tells Matt the outlaws came by earlier and
which direction they went. It turns out that Spellman was in Tonkins' house
with a gun on him. In the meantime, Doc stops for water on the way out to
the Miller place and gets bitten by a rattlesnake. Festus overhears two
ladies gossiping and figures out where Doc went. Leaving Thad in charge he
takes off after Doc, and finds him in pretty serious condition. Doc's horse
ran off with his medical bag in the buggy while he scuffled with the snake,
so Festus recommends putting some fresh meat on the wound to draw out the
poison, in this case a dead chicken. Doc agrees and Festus rides back to a
farm he'd passed earlier with some chickens in the yard, but is confronted
by a man with a gun and has to kill him to get the chicken. While Festus is

getting Doc back to Dodge, Matt corners Travers and Aikens in a ghost town
and gets shot!… Expand
