Synopsis by Hans J. Wollstein
Larry "Buster" Crabbe was billed "King of the Wild West" in this the final entry in PRC's ultra low-budget "Billy Carson" series. This time, Carson and sidekick Fuzzy Q. Jones (Al St. John) prevent a stage holdup, a crime organized by crooked land agent Vic Landreau (Jack O'Shea) in the mistaken belief that the coach was carrying cash earmarked for Devil's Gap rancher Jeff Barkley (Charles "Slim" Whitaker) to pay off the mortgage on his land. The plan thus having failed, Landreau has his henchman Hank Fowler (John L. Cason) frame Fuzzy in the murder of Barkley.
