Jim Hardie has been sent to the New Mexico area to find and catch outlaw Zach Bradley who killed the Wells Fargo employee, Sam Bell. After four weeks on his trail Hardie has caught him and is now returning the outlaw to Tucson for trial. They are going by stage with three other passengers. These include the famous Irish-born Spanish dancer Lola Montez plus her piano accompanist, Chris Hurley and a businessman, Mr. Collins. On the trail about two miles from the next relay station two Apaches stop the stage. Hardie talks to the leader who tells Jim they want Bradley as well for killing a squaw and her son. Hardie refuses to turn him over telling them he is headed for white man's justice which does not satisfy them. They reach the next relay station just before the Apaches attack.
