Synopsis
Tex Broderick is wanted for cattle rustling. The innocent cowpoke is wounded while fleeing from Sheriff Jim Porter and his blood-thirsty lynch mob. He finds shelter in the arms of Jean Bennet, a prospector's daughter living on the frontier. Jean has partnered with ne'er-do-well panhandler Cactus Barnes (Gabby Hayes) in a quest for gold. A tense love triangle forms between Tex, Jean and Sheriff Jim. When Cactus strikes gold, frontier justice clashes with the laws of society as a windfall of money and the promise of a better future raises the stakes.
