 A wagon trail, including Frank Wilson (Addison Richards) and his young son Frankie (George Ernest), and the Coburns (James Farley and Myrtle Stedman) with their young daughter Jen (Bonita Granville), reaches a frontier town,where Wilson sells his trader supplies to Phineas P. Hook (Charles Middleton), who with his henchmen Jake (Eddie Shubert) and Simon Bannion (Monte Montague) has control of the town.When Wilson starts back to civilazation for another load, Hook and the Bannions, disguised as Indians, rob and kill him. Young Frankie escapes and swears vengeance and fifteen years later, a young man known only as The Singing Kid comes to the territory. The Kid is the now-grown Frank Jr. (Dick Foran) and he begins getting his revenge by holding up the Hook-owned stages. He never robs the passengers but only takes money or good belonging to the killers of his father.He has three sidekicks, Curley (the bald-headed Pat West), Little Casino (Victor Potel) and Jose (Julian Rivero), as part of his band. Frank also strikes up a romance with the now-adult Jen (Alma Lloyd.) Henchman Monte (Gene Alsace) masquerades as The Singing Kid and sings while pulling a hold-up in order to frame Frank.Monte s singing voice is dubbed by Bob Nolan. Warners, utilizing stock footage from this film that included players Middleton, Richards, Shubert,Montage,Ernest,Potel,West and Rivero, made a short version of this in 1943 called "Wagon Wheels West", minus the singing and with about the only "new" footage being that with Robert Shayne and Nina Foch in the roles originally played by Dick Foran and Alma Lloyd.
