"The Found" is a quiet character study in which Johnny Yuma tends to a pregnant wife, Sally Heather (Lorrie Richards), whose husband Danny (Karl Held) is an outlaw one step ahead of the Marshal and his posse. Having fled hours before the birth, Johnny allays the 17 year old's fears and readies himself to deliver the infant, a son that she names after Johnny. A pair of bounty hunters drop by in search of their quarry, and when Yuma goes to find the child's father to allow him the opportunity to give himself up, Danny insists that a woman can't be trusted. Of the three, only Johnny comes back alive, lying to the widow that her husband wanted her to know that he loved her: "sometimes when we lose something, we're given something better to take its place." Both Jack Lester and George Sawaya were appearing for the second and last time.

Johnny finds an outlaw's wife in child labor in a remote cabin.
padutchland-121 February 2011
Found an old VHS tape at the flea market with 5 The Rebel shows that someone had recorded off their TV years ago - this show "The Found" is one of them. Nick Adams as Johnny Yuma is traveling through a mountain range and comes upon two men at a camp fire. He says hi and next thing he knows there are a half a dozen guns on him as a sheriff and posse come out of the trees. They are looking for an outlaw and once they determine that Johnny is not he, let him on his way. Johnny then comes upon a cabin with a woman screaming inside who turns out to be the wife of the outlaw and in child labor. With the posse and bounty hunters looking for the outlaw, the wife Sally tells Johnny where to find him. Johnny sets out to bring the outlaw back to the cabin. Sorry, can't reveal the ending, but great acting as in all The Rebel shows.
