With a drought starting to hit the farmers hard around the North Fork area, the railroad sends a barker to the area to recruit workers for $3 a day and a one year contract. With the land not producing any vegetation the farmers are thinking that this may be the only way out of starvation.
In comes a man named Mr Epps, played by the great character actor Royal Dano, who is an aged poor man but tells the farmers that he is a water-witch and can find water for them. The railroad barker also has a companion that feels that Epps is giving the farmer too much hope and wants to shut up Epps permanently. But the companion, Hode Evans, will also have to deal with Lucas McCain.
A pleasant story that has some respected actors in many of the parts. From Dano, Parley Baer and Bing Russell- this episode choose the best for the cast. Even though the story was very predictable, it still held the viewers attention to the end. Nice watch.
