Perennial western good guy Red Ryder (Bill Elliott) travels to Chicago and captures the thief Bull Reagan (Roy Barcroft) and his two young misguided youths. When Ryder returns home he finds his home has been partially burned out, and his cowhands abandoning his ranch. Ryder and his aunt, "The Duchess", played by Alice Fleming, attempt to reform the young lads, but they haven't seen the last of Bull Reagan. Reagan returns and attempts to lure his former young aids back to the wrong side of the law.
