Summary
Marshal Dillon investigates the suspicious death of a cowboy named Wiser, who was stabbed and scalped in Dodge City. The prime suspect is Tobiel, an Indian guide who has been following the victims, claiming his "medicine" will kill them rather than admitting to violence. Despite Tobiel's protests of innocence, the evidence points to him, leading to his arrest. However, the Marshal discovers that Durbin, a rival, actually shot Tobiel in an alley to frame him and eliminate a witness.
