Quotes
Tess: I heard what you told Martha. I'm a pretty good nurse too. Can I help?
Deputy U.S. Marshal Sam Buckhart: Yes you can. By going back to sleep. You know, that's the only way pretty little girls are going to grow up to be beautiful big girls.
Tess: Aw, shucks! Nobody ever lets me be much help around here.
Deputy U.S. Marshal Sam Buckhart: Tess... Just knowing that you're here, being able to see you every day when I'm not out of town is all the help I need.

Appointment in Santa Fe

Marshal Andy Morrison was a prisoner in Andersonville during the civil war. One of the prison guards was brutal to him. It left him with scars on his back from the whipping.

That guard was Clyde Santee (John Anderson) and he has come to town. He is looking for an escaped prisoner. No one escapes from Santee's prison and remains at large.

His presence brings bad memories for Marshal Morrison, he hates Santee. When Sam Buckhart tells the Marshal that the escaped prisoner is called Joe Baker. The Marshal is in a quandary.

Both men were in the same camp, both loathed Santee and vowed to get even with him one day.

It is interesting how Hooverville prison rears its head in many westerns. Santee is a dubious unlikeable guy with a conscience. It is a very wild melodramatic story.
