- There's dirty work afoot at the crossroads when arch-villain Howard Breen and a crooked banker are scheming to take over the Jeremiah Grant's ranch, and Breen also has his eye on Grant's daughter, Evelyn. However, cowhand Johnny Bowers, who also has any eye on Evelyn, and his horse, Lightning, put an end to the villainy.—Les Adams <longhorn1939@suddenlink.net>
- Johnny Bowers, of the Rockin' P Ranch, rides out to a railroad siding to be the first to greet Evelyn Grant, daughter of the owner of the ranch and the town banker. She is arriving from an Eastern college. He interrupts a gang of train robbers headed by Wingo Wade who flee when they see him coming. Later Wingo and Howard Breen, who has his marital eye on Evelyn and who admits to Wingo that he is $5000 short in his account at the bank, plot to waylay and rob a stage that is bringing a consignment of money to the bank. Fearing Johnny Bowers, Breen accuses him of highway robbery and has him and his two companions jailed. Johnny hears Wingo and Breen talking about the forthcoming coupe under the jail window. Johnny and his pals trick the constable and tie him up, taking his badge. They ride out and rob the stage, deliver the money to the bank and then go back to jail, where they hold the constable under threat of a hidden six shooter so that he acts as if nothing had happened when the sheriff returns. Wingo's gang, made desperate by their failure to waylay the stage, enter the jail, handcuff the sheriff to the bars and then go to the bank, where they demand the money that has just been delivered. The bandits escape with the money, pursued by Johnny and his pals, who set the sheriff free on their way out of jail. The bandits are all rounded up by the posse except Breen, who is overtaken by Johnny. They engage in a finish fight and Breen falls to his death, leaving nobody but Johnny Bowers to marry Evelyn.—anonymous
