Plot

When Dan Forster dies he had requested Wells Fargo to be his executor. Jim Hardie is assigned the task to track down his brother John Foster who has $100,000 coming. However, Jim learns John is also wanted - Dead or Alive.

Dan Forster was once an employee of Wells Fargo but he left the company and hit it big. When he died, he had asked Wells Fargo to act as executor of his estate. The job fell to Jim Hardie who had known Dan Forster. His job is to find Dan's brother, John, who is set to inherit $100,000. His one clue is a letter received seven years ago from him at an Osage Trading post. While riding there a man takes a shot at Hardie who is able to restrain the man, named Hobson. Hobson is a bounty hunter looking for John Forster who has a $1,000 bounty on his head - Dead or Alive. He thought Jim was Forster. They decide to ride to the Osage Trading Post together in pursuit of Forster. It is an isolated business where few whites are seen. The owner, Frisbee, says he has no recollection of Forster and the Osage are uncommonly tight lipped. There is one white man now called Thundercloud whom Hobson suspects is Forster. Thundercloud is married to an Osage woman, Running Deer. Frisbee's employee, a beautiful young Osage woman named White Bird, complicates things.—Anonymous
