An acceptable western starring Buster Crabbe in the role of Billy the Kid with Al "Fuzzy" St John as the comic sidekick. An interesting plot with standard acting and action from the cast. Overall, worth watching for those interested in the "B" westerns.
This is the 4th in the western series from Lone Star/Paul Malvern Productions, and directed by westerns veteran Robert N. Bradbury (father of westerns star Bob Steele) starring John Wayne and George "Gabby" Hayes. The plot in this film as in others in this series is a bit more complicated than the usual B western plot. Here Wayne and Hayes hook up after many years, start a blacksmith shop and then strike gold. Now the crooked assay office - real estate office owner Lloyd Whitlock (Harris) and his assistant Yakima Canutt (Cole) want Hayes ranch and the gold. But they'll have to get rid of Wayne and Hayes to accomplish this. Then it turns out that Earl Dwire's (Sherriff Miller) son is a thief and murderer and Wayne gets blamed for these crimes. Exonerated, he is later blamed for Hayes's death. What a life. In between all this, Hayes' lovely granddaughter Barbara Sheldon, with a little girl's voice, shows up and becomes Wayne's love interest. IMDB says Sheldon appeared in 4 films between 1933-34. For action, there is a lot of riding back and forth, a few fistfights, and a gunfight or two. Plot devices used in other movies in this series: jumping into the river to escape; riding (as if snowboarding) down a wet sluice to head off a bad guy; Wayne trying to jump from horse to horse to knock down a bad guy, missing and rolling down a hill; getting a serious kiss at the end. New devices here include chase by car, escape by RR motorized car; using a disguise o fool the bad guys; having a photograph taken at the end. And, a couple of little plot twists.

Written by pulp writer William Colt MacDonald, this Tim McCoy Columbia Studios Western may have been the forerunner of McDonald's later so popular The Three Mesqueteers. John Wayne, whose character is named, appropriately, Duke, and Wallace MacDonald (no relation to William Colt) play McCoy's loyal ranch hands, and although they remain in the background for part of the action, the germ of the triad hero is there.
Tim McCoy plays a rancher losing his property to a crooked money-lender turned cattle rustler (Wheeler Oakman). The villain is in league with a sheriff's deputy (Walter Brennan) and together they rob the Wells Fargo. There is a final shootout and the dying deputy confesses to both the Wells Fargo heist and to the fact that Tim's ranch was illegally obtained.
John Wayne, who didn't get along with Tim McCoy and had several rows with studio czar Harry Cohn, swore that he would never again work for Columbia, a promise he kept.
Rod Drew (John Wayne) has been sent to find a missing miner (Noah Beery Sr) and his daughter (Verna Hillie).
He is joined by old friend Wabi (Noah Beery Jr.) whom he has to rescue from card cheats that framed him for murder.
Later they find a skeleton and a map to a mine.
