Synopsis
Buck Duane, the son of an outlaw, wants to live peacefully, but, when he kills Cal Bain in self-defense, he must leave his Texas border town to hide in the hills, where he meets outlaw gangs, but refuses, however, to join them. While rescuing Jenny Lee, who was kidnapped years earlier by the Bland gang from being raped by Bland, Buck is wounded by Mrs. Bland, with whom he flirted to save Jenny. As Jenny nurses Buck, they fall in love. After she is recaptured and then rescued by the Texas Rangers, they pursue Buck, who outwits them and then surrenders. The captain of the Rangers orders Buck's pardon, if he will assist in capturing the two outlaws who killed Jenny's parents. During a bank hold-up, the outlaws are captured, but Buck is seriously wounded. After the governor's reprieve, Buck marries Jenny and soon they have a large family of husky children.
