Dayle Lymoine Robertson (July 14, 1923 – February 27, 2013) was an American movie actor best known for his starring roles on television. He played the roving investigator Jim Hardie in the television series Tales of Wells Fargo and Ben Calhoun, the owner of an incomplete railroad line in Iron Horse.
