 Outlaws Slim Stevens (Donald Curtis) and Hutch Dalton (Tristram Coffin) are amazed to see gold nuggets fall out of Cannonball s pockets one day in the frontier town of Crestview. They force Cannonball (Dub Taylor) to reveal the location of a gold mine he has discovered. Slim, Hutch and their gang members make a beeline for the location, and trespass on the ranch of Big Bill Bailey (Jack Baxley) in doing so. Bailey and his foreman Bob Wilson (Bob Wills) put up a fight but are losing when Sheriff Lucky Crandall (Russell Hayden) arrives and helps drive off the outlaws, but not before one of Bailey s men has been killed. Madge Duncan (Alma Carroll), Slim s sister, learns of the killing and refuses to let her brother hide in her home. The gang plans an ambush for Lucky, but Lucky has some plans of his own involving a counter-ambush.
