Fabian conspires with Bill Gunner (Dick Alexander), Breed Crocker (Bob Cason) and Trigger Booth (Charles King) to steal the money and they fail, but Fabian gets it on his own.

Fabian owns the abandoned ghost town of "Mystic", and Gunner, Crocker and Booth take him there to force him to tell where he has hidden the money, They shoot at his feet to intimidate him and he dies from fright and shock. Tex, Jim and Panhandle are also searching the town and they find Fabian's body. Benson tells Lucy Warren (Mady Lawrence) that the money may be hidden in the old Wells Fargo office in Mystic and they go there and find the strongbox. Enter Gunner, Crocker and Booth. Enter the Rangers. Gunfight

    A 1944 Film put on DVD by Alpha Home Video, Stars the Cowboy Dave "Tex" O'Brien, This is a short Movie that I imagine was on Saturday Afternoon TV Back in the Day, Its in Black & White, both sound and picture quality are very rough, but if your a cowboy collector, its worth addi...( read more)ng to the collection. In this film we have Dry Gulch Trading Post Owner Kurt Fabian lending money on mortgages to the town's settler to finance an irrigation program. Three Texas Rangers transport the money in a Strong Box. The Money is stole and the Texas Rangers are Framed, So our movie involves them clearing there name. We have singing, gun fights, and all the other things that made up a 1940-1950 Cowboy movie. I can only give this one 2 1/2 stars because of Film Quality. I wouldn't pay more then a dollar or two for this one, Sorry Tex
