Overview

Young lawyer Tod Jackson arrives in pioneer Kansas to visit his prosperous rancher friends the Daltons, just as the latter are in danger of losing their land to a crooked development company.

Will Tod stay loyal to his friends despite falling in love with Bob Dalton's former fiancée Julie?
