Pat Garrett gets shot at while going to Abilene. He's a bit out of his stomping grounds in New Mexico territory. But he's marrying a girl from Abilene., Karin
Booth. George Montgomery plays Garrett and he's giving up law enforcement
and settling down.
But when some of Butch Cassidy's and the Sundance Kid's Hole In The Wall gang
are spotted around town Montgomery knows something is up. Coming to help
are Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson played by Buster Crabbe and Gregory Walcott
in from Dodge City. Not only them but Buffalo Bill Cody (Malcolm Atterbury) is
on the scene also.
Neville Brand and Russell Johnson are Butch and Sundance. Montgomery and
his team want to stand up to the gang. They have to deal with Morris Ankrum
the mayor who just wants them all to go away.
A nicely staged shootout is the climax of this B western.
Ironic though because for a while Abilene had Wild Bill Hickok as its marshal.
