Summary[]
Returning home after visiting Cameo, the girl he's courting, Hoss discovers a family lynched for allegedly stealing cattle. Hoss sees Jim Applegate, a rival for Cameo's affections, riding away from the area; he opts not to tell the sheriff for fear of besmirching Cameo's reputation.
When Jim flees the authorities, Hoss tries to bring him back to ensure a fair trial, but a lynch mob has its own ideas.
