Joe Hamman is asked to deliver the miner's pay. e asks his buddies to go along, but they betray him. Back in town, he is going to be hanged for stealing the money, so he asks Berthe Dagmar to find Gaston Mdot and save him from the noose. Can she ride hard enough? And will Modot?
This movie is all about the riding and, of course, the shocking sight of a hanging in a France where they did things the civilized way - with a guillotine. It may seem surprising that Jean Durand's company of farceurs could ride so well, and that the French would be so enamored of les cow-boys that they would make their own movies on he subject, but there were plenty of westerns produced on the Continent into the 1930s.
