Before Quinto became part of the Union, it was a tough, lawless place - the refuge of such notorious desperadoes as Frank and Jesse James , the Dalton brothers, Belle Starr and Sam Bass. Into this outlaw stronghold rides Texan sheriff Mark Rowley on the trail of the James boys, and Henryette Alcott, a crusading newspaper editor determined in her campaign to make Quinto part of the Oklahoma territory.
The town of Quinto is sure a colourful place, its filled with bad men, such as Jesse James, Belle Starr and the Dalton gang, but the main villainy is a US Marshal who frames Scott's lawman and his brother as being in cahoots with the bad men. Morgan Conway as the crooked marshal does some scene stealing - he's truly a character you love to hate. The disapproving look Scott gives him is priceless. Scott was always an expert in using his stoic visage to his advantage. It's a colourful western with a steady plot and enough action to keep you "a leeetle mite", as Gabby Hayes would say, happy.
