SYNOPSIS
Howell breaks up a train robbery only to find that it's a fake. However the money is missing and he is blamed. He escapes and sets out to find the real thieves. He must also avoid being caught visiting the Collins ranch to see Doris.

Blaze Howell stops what he believes is a train robbery, but it is revealed to be a welcoming joke to visitors from the East. It is discovered that during the fake robbery, a real robbery has occurred that involved the death of a guard.
