There was a bad man, Quantrell's Raiders, the hero's love for the girl and finally the death of the bad guy. Truly a classic story! But because many of the scenes were cut, the film seems a bit odd. …

It was one of the biggest moneymakers Republic ever had. I put everybody in it. Walter Pidgeon – he gave one hell of a performance – Marjorie Mann, Roy Rogers, Gabby Hayes. I put everybody in it but my mother-in-law. – RW
