A 50-year-old man and his son are having a hard time keeping up with the rest of the herd on a trail drive. When a marshal comes asking the questions, the pair quietly leave. Trail boss Gil Favor follows them and finds that the older man is an escaped convict, who was wrongly convicted of murder by a crooked judge. The marshal follows Favor and takes all of them back to camp. The next day the herd is attacked by Indians and all men are needed to hold off the attack. In the battle, the convict saves the marshal's life, causing the lawman to change his mind about the convict's guilt.
