Powerful action-packed Western starring James Cagney as Matt Dow, a wanderer accused of a crime he didn't commit. A shoot-up takes place in which his young companion's leg is smashed. When the townspeople realise they have made a terrible mistake, they appoint Dow their sheriff, and he in turn appoints his young crippled friend Davey his deputy. Davey's bitterness pulls the two apart, however, when he makes a deal with a gang of crooks.
