For nothing despicable 5.000 thousand bucks for his head and more incredible still 50.000 bucks for his secret hideout, due there lays out a million dollars of stolen gold, his reckless pursuer is the Sheriff Jim Caradac (Ward Bond), after a thwarted attempted robbery of the stagecoach line, Rhiannon was chase by the untamed Sheriff, in the action he was cheated by the cunning Jim Caradac pretending be hit by gunfire, Rhiannon goes to check and be taken aback, both enter a fight and accidentally he shot a gun hitting the Sheriff leaving Caradac seriously wounded, then he decides takes a risk carrying him to a Dr. Jonathan Mark (Walter Brennan) at the city, posing as just a passerby named Johnny that found the body in the middle of the road.
The wise Doctor demands him to give his blood to save the Sheriff otherwise he'll die soon, the faltering guy there's no choice, in the another day he was nominee as new Sheriff while he is recovering, also Rhiannon has a blatant love interest in the eye-candy Nan Morgan (Ella Raines) a high class poker player, however in a couple months ahead will be another hidden gold shipment and Rhiannon in counting the days.
Psychological western mainly enforces by the wise Doctor-Preacher Jonathan who plays a bold game with the singing Outlaw, the Sheriff and the greedy Nan, thus the die is cast, I consider the old Walter Brennan one the most colorful and charismatic character in the western that I have seen, quite sure, he has own brightness that shines all around, what a fabulous old guy!!
