Plot
Sam Ward and Logan Keliher were once brothers in arms in the Texas Rangers. When both left the force, Ward turned outlaw and is angry at Keliher for marrying his former wife and adopting his child while Ward was imprisoned for his crimes. Ward escapes from prison and forms a gang to rob a bank in Keliher's town, and Ward plans to kill Keliher after the robbery. Keliher foils the robbery and Ward is the only survivor from his gang. Ward escapes with the loot but is wounded by Keliher, who joins a posse and uses his knowledge of Ward's ways to locate him.
When Ward is captured and the bank money is recovered, several members of the posse debate whether they should kill Ward and his girlfriend Lottie and keep the bank money for themselves. Their plans are interrupted by an Apache war party.
