Fred Tomlinson

Fred Tomlinson was the marshal of North Fork before his death in The Marshal. He only appears in two episodes; the pilot, and The Marshal, in which he is killed off.
Marshal Tomlinson was originally intended to be the show's authority figure, but his actor R.G. Armstrong found that he could not commit to the production schedule. As such, the episode The Marshal served to write him out of the show and replace him with Marshal Torrance.The Rifleman Dell Comics Treasury, ISBN: 978-0-9854781-8-6
