Plot
Two cowboys, Dave and Chito, work a ranch for its owner, Pop Melhern, and his beautiful daughter Sue. Together, the four ride across the countryside, searching for wild horses, a valuable commodity in the Old West. However, after one successful roundup, a rival rancher, Jay Olmstead, offers to purchase the herd from Melhern for $32,000 hard cash. After the transaction is completed, Olmstead quietly trails Melhern out of town. He murders him, using the butt of his pistol, and retrieves the cash. Olmstead has problems though. One of his hired hands, Hod Slack, appears out of nowhere and informs his boss he has just witnessed the deed. But Slack promises Olmstead he'll keep his mouth shut if he makes Slack a partner in all of his business dealings. Olmstead reluctantly agrees. Later, Dave rides to the site of the murder and searches the terrain for anything that might serve as a clue to the perpetrator's identity. He soon finds what he's looking for—a piece broken off a pistol that might have been the murder weapon. Dave's search for that weapon leads him to the town's saloon, where he becomes embroiled in a free-for-all with two of Olmstead's ranch hands. The sheriff interjects himself into the scene when he informs Dave that, legally, he has nothing on Olmstead. An examination of the guns carried by the two Olmstead ranch hands reveal nothing culpable. As for Olmstead, he had been careful to acquire a bill of sale with Melhern's signature before his death. Where justice is concerned, things could not get worse. But that's just what happens when Hod Slack kills Olmstead and convincingly frames Dave for the murder. Dave is thus arrested and charged. But Chito breaks him out of jail. And the rest of the story illustrates just how Dave works a small miracle and solves the crime in his favor. ==Cast==
