Cavalier of The West

Army Captain John Allister goes up against crooked Deputy Red Greeley and villainous ranch foreman Lee Burgess, whose thugs are robbing and killing their way across the desert. Adding to John's problems, his carousing younger brother Wilbur has just been transferred to his command, quickly becoming a strain on the Captain's patience. When Wilbur catches the fancy of ranch-owner Dolores, he decides to leave his wild days behind. In love with Dolores himself, a jealous Burgess frames Wilbur for a saloon murder. To save his brother from hanging, John steps into the role of defense lawyer, while fighting to put Burgess and Greeley out of business for good.
