"Sam the Sheriff: The Horrible Menace" depicts a bumbling sheriff who repeatedly ignores knocks on his office door while dealing with his duties, eventually being forced to open it by his deputy. "The White Buffalo Trail" follows Rod Cameron in a Western saga involving action on horseback and gunfire, with antagonists attempting to stop Cameron as he pursues them across the landscape, ultimately cornering a criminal who declares his intention to hide and seek revenge against Cameron.
Hoghead Harry is stumped trying to recall the name of the country his uncle is visiting, remembering only that it starts with the name of an animal. He guesses wildly—Bering Straits, Bolivia—before finally realizing it must be "Horse-tralia," a playful twist on Australia.
Rod Cameron rides into Red Butts as a signal fire and Indian drums signal an ancient ceremony, where Chief Red Eagle recounts the legend of the Great White Buffalo and the Spirit Flame. After the dance, a group of outlaws plots to frame Rod Cameron for murder by disguising themselves as him and setting a deadly trap using his own horse.
In a lighthearted western tale, a nervous newcomer asks Ambling Andy about dangers in the hills, only to be told the only thing to fear is the mysterious "Ohboy!"—a creature said to live on wild garlic and onions and make a startling noise when it runs past. The story plays on the man’s fear with a silly twist, turning a simple scare into a humorous misunderstanding.
Sam the Sheriff is startled by a knock at his door, only to be reassured it’s just a visitor—not a supernatural menace—when his assistant, Bulk, answers. A man named Stretch Jenkins arrives, claiming he’s encountered Light Fingers Bill again, and asks Sam to verify the outlaw’s identity, leading to a series of increasingly absurd accusations and a farcical showdown over a cheese sandwich and a barber’s bill.
