Rancher Joan Prescott (Natalie Kingston) is about to sell her horses to
the army, represented by Captain Hartford (Tom London), but rather
surprisingly, her boyfriend Rankin (Bob Custer) opposes her plans all of a
sudden, and soon enough, out in the open, Rankin and Hartford clash, but
refrain from shooting each other because each of them seems to want
something from the other. Anyways, back in town, Hartford accuses Rankin
of being a rustler and soon enough has the Sheriff (Joe Smith Marber) on
his side, while Rankin seems to investigate something that has to do with
the twin of his own pinto and a man (Bill Cody) held by a mute brute,
Dummy (Bob Roper).
Eventually, a gouvernment agent, Singer Martin (Lane Chandler) arrives
on the scene, enlists the help of Deputy Marshal Walsh (William McCall),
whom he tells to always keep close to Cap Hartford, and soon enough,
Martin has rounded up the gang of rustlers, all but their leader, whom
everyone seems to believe to be Rankin, who is even at the scene, but who
makes a daring escape by stampeding Joan's horses ...
Eventually, all culminates in a showdown at Dummy's hut, where Rankin
fights him to save his captive, but to no avail ... until Martin arrives
on the scene to shoot Dummy, and clear up the whole mess: Rankin is
actually a gouvernment agent on the trail of rustlers who are after army
horses, Captain Hartford now turns out to be a fake and actually the head
of the rustlers, and Dummy's captive turns out to be the real Captain
Hartford. And since Hartford (the real one) and Rankin had identical twin
horses, Rankin was able to track down Hartford in the first place ...
Like most films of the early sound era, this one is at times creaky and
stagey, but if you are able to see beyond that, it's also an enjoyable
B-Western with quite a few unexpected plottwists. Nothing great maybe, but
likeable.
