Featured review
This episode of Bonanza has the Virginia City area in a severe drought and Adam
Cartwright is on a mission to get some water wagons so that they draw water from Lake Tahoe. In the meantime it's pretty hot and dry for the rest of the area
and the Cartwrights are making as best due they can.
Times like this one will try anything and John Anderson from the Tennnessee hills has come to town with wife Claudia Pryar and children Mickey Sholdar and Eileen Chesis. These are some mighty proud folks who don't like handouts. But they are in need of help when the little girl comes down with typhoid fever.
A nice story about a family that learns that all the people who aren't from the Tennessee hills are not necessarily bad.

Storyline
Did you know
- GoofsAbout halfway through, Little Joe brings a plateful of sandwiches to the young boy. The sandwiches are obviously made with sliced white bread. Modern Sliced Bread wasn't invented until 1928 by The Chillicothe Baking Company and popularized by Wonder Bread in 1930. Bonanza is set generally in the 1860's through 1870's based on occasional historical references in various episodes.
- Quotes
Joseph 'Little Joe' Cartwright: I think there's a big difference between a handout and a helping hand. One's charity, the other's friendship.
