Jim Hardie stops by a relay station that has reported a theft of several horses. He is met at the door by a pretty young woman who unknowingly is at the center of the theft as a man vies for her hand versus the man he frames for the theft.

Jim Hardie makes a visit to his parolee Bob Dawson. While there someone tries to rob the Wells Fargo office killing a sleeping man. The technique used is a copy of one Dawson used 27 years earlier so the Marshal wants to lock up Dawson.
