Synopsis
Clay Burgess, a wanderer, returns to his home town to find his father, a banker, dead and his property in the clutches of "Big" Dave Dawley by means of a forged will. The real will is possessed by Ben Davis, who works on Della Bowen's ranch outside of town. After visiting Ben and promising Della that he will return to marry her, Clay enlists the aid of a gang that has been battling Dawley's henchmen for control of the town. After a series of adventures, including a brutal fight in which Dawley is killed, Clay and his men exterminate the rival Dawley gang. The wandering cowboy then retrieves his property and settles down with Della.
