Luke Slaughter of Tombstone is a western drama radio series centered around the adventures of Luke Slaughter, a Civil War cavalryman who turns to cattle ranching in post-war Arizona territory near Fort Huachuca. The series features a gritty, hard-boiled tone, with Sam Buffington starring as the titular character. Together with his sidekick, Wichita, Luke Slaughter faces various adversities, such as murderers, swindlers, cheats, and robbers, as they try to run their cattle business. The show boasts original characters and plotlines crafted with the creative vision of famed radio producer and director, William N. Robson.< / p > < p > The series aired from February 23 through June 15, 1958, on CBS, and only 16 episodes were broadcast due to increasing competition from television. It was part of a lineup with other western series, such as Frontier Gentleman and Have Gun Will Travel, which took Luke Slaughter of Tombstone' s time slot after only a brief run. In addition to Buffington as the lead, Junius Matthews portrayed the character of Wichita. At the time, Buffington was only 27 years old, and his performance was often compared to William Conrad' s Matt Dillon on Gunsmoke.
