Sheriff of Sage Valley

Billy the Kid (Buster Crabbe), on the run from the law for crimes he didn't commit, stops outlaws from robbing a stagecoach, but later the sheriff of nearby Sage Valley is shot and killed. When Billy saves Sage Valley's mayor from gunfire, he is asked to become the town's new sheriff. He agrees, and discovers that both shootings are part of a plot to take over the town by outlaw Kansas Ed Bonney (also Crabbe), Billy's own look-alike brother and the man behind the crimes blamed on him.
