It makes a lot of difference who is the sheriff in the town of Lariat. When Grubb was sheriff Kurt Dodd and his men ran wild. Cattle rustling was a business to them and they went about it in a business-like fashion. Save for the valor and alertness of Bob Lee and his Texas men they&rsquo;d have wiped out the whole Tomlinson outfit.<BR /><BR />When Bob Lee becomes sheriff the war on the rustlers begins in earnest. Bob is elected to the tune of barking six-guns and after his election the gunfire only increases as Kurt Dodd&rsquo;s gang try to drop him dead. <BR /><BR />In the fights for his life and for the safety of cattlemen the only man Bob wants at his back is Dick Markley. Dick chooses a job that offers better money than sheriff&rsquo;s deputy improving his chances to win the hand of one Miss June Tomlinson leaving Bob to fight off Dodd&rsquo;s men without his help. Bob is faced with some difficult decisions: between love and friendship friendship and his job his life and his personal sense of justice; Bob will make choices that&rsquo;ll forever alter his destiny.<BR />
