Plot
editAs described in a film magazine review,[2] outlaws terrorize the town of Arcady, Arizona. Bob Haynes, a stranger, is attracted by Azalia Bolton, daughter of a boarding house keeper, and protects her from some drunken rowdies. She inspires him to change his life to the better. Sheriff Dan Dodo Briggs offers to make Bob a deputy, but he declines. Later, following a stage coach holdup, he accepts the offered position and brings in the guilty bandits, but confesses that he used to be their leader.
