It's 1865 in Missouri and the Civil War has just ended. Confederate soldiers Hollis Burnside and Matt Graves flee from Union soldiers that want to imprison them. Hollis then frees a black man named Duncan from a lynching and they become a trio. Later when Hollis wins a lot of money at the pool table and Matt doesn't get any, the two soldiers become enemies. This leads to a showdown between Hollis and Duncan against Matt and the henchmen he has put together to steal the money.

Tom, here's info about Denys McCoy, who was apparently NOT Spangler:

Thanks for the correction. I had seen it mentioned in a magazine interview with someone involved with "The Last Rebel" that McCoy was really Spangler. Correction has been made.
