Plot

edit

A mortally-wounded courier (Michael Ansara) arrives in a small town, and asks the town banker (Richard Crenna) to safeguard the valuable shipment which he has given his life to protect. Crenna agrees to do so, much to the chagrin of the townspeople who fear that the vicious gang of bad guys will now tear up the town to finally get their hands on the $200,000 stored in his bank.
