Leaving the mighty Universal to fend for himself in a Hollywood undergoing a cataclysmic change, silent Western hero Ted Wells signed with poverty row regular Robert J. Horner. Horner changed Well's name to Pawnee Bill, Jr. and showcased his "find" in a series of no-budget silent oaters geared to smaller houses not yet equipped for sound. Stunt-rider Ione Reed played the female leads, with Boris Bullock (aka Kit Carson and William Barrymore), Bill Nestell, and the ever-popular Bud Osborne in the supporting roles.
