Synopsis
Having made a name for himself as a lawman, former bandit Draw Egan goes to Yellow Dog to serve as its new marshal, and while turning the town into a model community, he begins a romance with a member of one of its most prominent families, Myrtle Buckton. Soon, however, a member of Draw's former gang, Arizona Joe, arrives in Yellow Dog, and threatens to expose Draw's past if the marshal tries to make him obey the law. Draw gives in for a while, but then decides that the welfare of the community is more important than his romance with Myrtle. True to his word, Joe tells the whole town about Draw when the lawman comes after him, after which Draw kills Joe and then prepares to give up Myrtle. She tells him, however, that his past is unimportant, and then begins making plans with him for their future.
