Synopsis by Hans J. Wollstein
In his first Western after leaving Fox for poverty row company FBO, Tom Mix once again played a pony express rider rescuing the heroine Sharon Lynn from the ubiquitous runaway carriage. The girl's pa (Tom Lingham) is the survey chief for the telegraph company and in dire need of help. The company is being terrorized by Slade (Duke R. Lee) and his gang, but Mix manages to arrive with the cavalry just in time to prevent wholesale slaughter. The director of this and several other Mix films, Eugene Forde, was the star's brother-in-law.
