Lon McKay, a young cowhand in Wyoming in 1860, falls in love with
the beautiful Laura Bowman. But their marriage plans are
interrupted when Lon visits his mother in Indiana after the death
of his father. He rides right into a new conscription law, and is
drafted into the Union Army in the midst of the Civil War in 1863.
After two years, including a stint in Andersonville Prison, Lon
is discharged from the army as a cavalry lieutenant. He returns to
Wyoming to find Laura has been mistakenly informed of his death and
has married another man. Lon moves on with his life and becomes a
scout, then a U. S. Marshal in the southwest.
Years later he receives a letter from Laura, now a widow in
serious trouble, asking for his help. In response to her plea, Lon
returns to Oak River Falls .
Idaho, 1888. Wade Dellums receives a cryptic letter from his
childhood friend Ben Taylor asking for his help. Since Ben isn't

cowboy, and rifle salesman to ride to Idaho. When Wade arrives in
White Willow, the town nearby Ben's home, he hears talk of a
ruthless cattleman named Charlie Tate who wants Ben's ranch. The
only problem is that Ben refuses to sell. Wade does a little more
sniffing around town to try and gather as much information on Tate
as he can-and what he hears isn't good. Tate has a reputation for
stopping at nothing to get what he wants. Armed with his trusty
Winchester, Wade heads out to Ben's ranch and discovers that Tate
and his men are about to force Ben to sell, by bodily injury if
necessary. With Ben's wife and son caught in the crossfire, Wade
knows he has to make a move. Can he save Ben and his family without
risking his own life? There's only one way to find out
