Both Clint Eastwood and a couple of steers get sick and the fear is anthrax. The
steers are shot and buried and I'm sure if quick lime had been available it would
have been used. But we don't do that to Rowdy Yates.
The only thing worse than the disease is fear of same. That's what Eric Fleming's drovers are afraid of and that's what the Towne that's at the other side of a mountain pass is afraid of. There's also the closest thing to a doctor around, pharmacist Harry Townes and his daughter Margaret O'Brien who is a nurse.
The episode belongs to them and to Eric Fleming who as trail boss shoulders an awful lot of responsibility here.
It's one of the best Rawhide episodes.
