      • Dru Lemp, the widow of the former Marshall in Laramie before Dan came, leaves the show at this point, too, apparently to leave Julie Tate free to be Dan's love interest. Actually, Dan never seems to warm up to any woman until Lily Merrill comes in the second season. After that, it seemed, no other woman had a chance. Edit
