Bill Tucker has spent most of his life being pushed around so when he decides to move out West and buy his own land, he is determined not to be seen as a small man anymore. When Tucker discovers gold on his land, however, he draws the attention of Septimus Arkwright, a local cattle company owner in desperate need of funds. Arkwright blames the Homestead Act, which brought Tucker to these lands, for his own misfortune, so when he learns there is gold to be had he decides to get what he feels is rightly his …and nothing and nobody will stand in his way.
