After a career of twenty-one years, 1950 - 1971, Stuart Randall retired from acting after this episode.
The con used in this episode was also used in Shady Deal at Sunny Acres (1958) (which was also written by series creator, 'Roy Huggins').
The title comes from the song, "Oh My Darling, Clementine", although in the original the line was "dreadful sorrow Clementine".
