Buck Jones and his fellow marshaIs come to the aid of Rufus Todd - an old friend and newspaper man in the smalI mining town of Gold Creek. Gold shipments are being hijacked by mysterious marauders, and Todd cIaims to have proof that SaIoon owner Jim Rand is the mastermind behind the robberies. Todd's printing presses are destroyed before he can produce the newspaper naming the cuIprit. Suspecting Rand is incapable of running such a compIicated racket, Marshals Jones, McCalI and Hopkins go undercover to smoke out the true gang leader.
West Of The Law was the last of eight Rough Riders movies starring the original Rough Riders (Buck Jones, Tim McCoy and Raymond Hatton).

Buck Jones and Raymond Hatton continued on for one final Rough Riders movie, Dawn On The Great Divide (1942). Jones died soon after in the Cocoanut Grove Nightclub fire in Boston, while Hatton went on to reprise his roIe as Marshal Sandy Hopkins - but as a sidekick to western star Johnny Mack Brown. |
