Summary

Under the watchful eye of its owner Frank Wallingham, the Wallingham Freighting Company is bound for Denver with forty wagons of whiskey to quench the town's thirst. But there are others who have plans of their own for the load of libations including temperance leader Cora Templeton Massingale, who wants it destroyed, the Sioux Indians who want it for themselves, ditto the Denver citizens militia, as well as the Irish teamsters hired as wagon drivers. Fearing that the shipment may not reach its destination, Colonel Thaddeus Gearhart assigns Captain Paul Slater to safeguard the cargo, unaware that Slater's fiancée Louise - who also happens to be the Colonel's daughter - has fallen under the powerful spell of Cora's temperance message
