A paroled convict (Johnny Mack Brown) returns to his home town to prove his innocence against the land-grabbing town elders who framed him for a stagecoach robbery. He's aided in his quest by his partner (Fuzzy Knight), girl friend (Jennifer Holt), and a new friend (Tex Ritter) who is a U.S. marshal traveling incognito.
