Lieutenant Roy Dexter and Barry Haller, both in love with Mercedes Spencer, are part of a military garrison stationed in Hueco City in the years immediately following the Civil War. On returning from a mission, the two friends decided to ask the girl who she intends to marry between the two and the choice falls on Roy. Lieutenant Dexter is ordered to immediately leave and escort a cargo of gold. Barry promises to take good care of Mercedes in Dexter’s absence. During the trip, however, the patrol is attacked and the gold is stolen. Roy is injured. But quickly recovers and prepares to celebrate his wedding to Mercedes. He is arrested and sentenced to death on charges of having been in league with the bandits and the robbery of the gold shipment. The intervention of Barry gets the commutation of the sentence to life in prison. Roy escapes the guardhouse and returns to town under a false name. After a clever evasion, Roy manages to infiltrate the outlaw gang and discover who is responsible for all the criminal acts for which he has been accused. Backed by Colonel Jackson, commander of the fort, who is not convinced of Roy’s guilt, Lieutenant Dexter proves his innocence and it is Barry who is found to be a part of the gang and the guilty party.

ReplyDeleteIn the picture above, Robert Woods kind of looks like a Mexican. But he plays an American soldier named Roy Dexter. Hmm.
