The first deputy marshal on "Gunsmoke" was Chester Goode, portrayed by actor Dennis Weaver. Chester served as the loyal assistant to Marshal Matt Dillon, played by James Arness, and was known for his distinctive limp and folksy demeanor. He was a central character in the series during its early years, contributing to both the action and the lighter moments of the show. Chester remained a fan favorite until he left the series in 1964.

What was Marshall Dillon's horse's name?

Marshall Matt Dillon, star of TV's popular Western, Gunsmoke, rode a horse named Buck. Strangely, the horse's name was only mentioned once during Gunsmoke's twenty-season run. Dillon's friend Festus had a mule called Ruth. Evidently there were TWO horses named Buck because some of the Gunsmoke episodes have Marshall Dillon riding a buckskin horse with white stockings and some of the Gunsmoke episodes have Marshall Dillon riding a buckskin horse without any white stockings.
