Jimmy Wakely and his pal "Cannonball" are on their way to work for California settler John Chambers when they discover the body of Don Manuel, a member of an old Californian family. Don Manuel has been killed by Ramsay and Sturgis, two men on the payroll of crooked county surveyor Willard Jackson. They have taken land grant documents that Manuel was carrying so that Jackson can make copies and claim the land for himself. José, a young Mexican land owner, accuses Jimmy of killing Manuel and challenges him to a gunfight, but Jimmy beats him to the draw. Just then, José's uncle, Don Esteban, an old friend of Jimmy's, arrives on the scene and vouches for Jimmy, but José still regards him as a land grabber. At Don Esteban's hacienda, where Jimmy and Cannonball meet ranch hand Whip, Esteban tells Jimmy that José's father was killed by unidentified settlers who took over his ranch...
