Brief Synopsis:
Randy is tricked into helping a gang break into a bank.  A townsman is
killed in the robbery, and Randy is the only one the bank guard, who was
knocked unconscious, can remember seeing.  Trying to live up to his past
success as a marshal, the guard refuses to admit he might have been mistaken
despite new evidence of the cowboy's innocence.
