Brief Synopsis:
Andrew Hiller (Tryon), an old friend of Ryker's, is wanted for robbery.  But
he's trying to reform from his outlaw ways and settles with his family near
Medicine Bow.  Ryker, torn between humanity and his duties as a lawman,
decides to help Hiller make a new start of his life.  But a Shiloh hand
recognizes the former thief and begins to blackmail him.
