Summary:
When a curious man finds wanted posters in Ross Dunbar's bed roll, the thief pegs him as a bounty hunter. He recognizes three of the faces, and he knows he must warn them of Dunbar's presence. Telling the outlaws, Grady Morse and Ed Huett, what he knows, they kill him and set out to do the same to Dunbar. Dunbar, however, did not come to the town of Dry Creek to collect bounties. After shooting outlaw Frank Elbert, he finds the man has a considerable sum of money on him that is rightfully his. The bounty hunter decides to give it to Elbert's wife and son. On his arrival at the Elbert ranch, he is attacked by Morse and Huett, who take the woman and boy hostage. With the help of the third wanted man, Quinino Madrid, Dunbar saves the prisoners, finds happiness, and hangs up his guns.
