Trama

When gold is found near Marble City the rush brings farmer Brendel, Pastor Benson and gambler Ellis to town. Bandits and Cherokees threaten the settlers. Friends Phil and Pat try to restore order and find the culprit causing the mayhem.

Based on the novel by Friedrich Gerstäcker, the film, set entirely in the state of Arkansas, tells of the conflict of interests between the local townspeople and homesteaders on the surrounding land, miners arriving during the gold rush, cowboys and cattle thieves who cause problems in the area, and the native tribes of the region. Two adventurers arrive in town and try to restore peace to it and its inhabitants.
