Riders of Death Valley

Jim Benton and his vigilantes, The Riders of Death Valley, have barely broken up a phony miners protective league, when Chuckawalla, an old desert rat, is carried in.

Tombstone grabs Mary and leaps. With Jim, they salvage the stage money box and dash back to meet the noon deadline to prevent control of the Panamint bank from being turned over.

In the split moment before the overtaking of the herd reaches him, Benton vaults to his saddle and safety, leaving Reade’s men scattered and believing him dead.

Jim, with Mary in his arms, leaps from the wagon just before it crashes to the water. Death seems certain as the two are caught in the rushing torrent.

Jim and Mary find safety in a cave, and Wolf and Butch and the other outlaws assume the pair are dead and withdraw.

Hurtling Mary before him, Jim springs into a cave just as Reade’s dynamite explodes against the cliff where they stand.

The loyal horse turns back, paws at the sand and noses Jim until revives, while Wolf Reade, assuming Jim is dead, returns to divide his men.

Quick thinking saves Jim and Tombstone. But they have to return Panamint for more money to repair the damage.

The Riders elude the chase and return to rescue Jim from the wagon wreckage. They go back to town to determine who really killed Hogan and pin the guilt on Gordon.

Jim finds an opening in the flaming wall. Dragging Tombstone with him, and with Pancho, Borax Bill and the others, they ride swiftly out of town to the mine.

Jim leaps into clear with Mary, but Butch and two other outlaws are injured. Reade retreats with his depleted forces.

Benton and the girl escape, and he quickly forms a defensive barricade against the outlaws. Reade then figures he has simply to hold tight until the loan deadline.

Jim and Tombstone fall from the bridge as lightning shatters it but reach safety and rejoin the wagon train.

Stunned, Jim climbs from the water. Apparently, Wolf is killed. The outlaws retreat and find him half-drowned. He sends for every cutthroat in the region.
