Billy Carter lives with his parents on their home farm. When a land dispute between his father and his wealthy neighbor, Jon Pryce, leads the latter to send thugs to underline his demands, Billy is sent into town to get help from the sheriff. However, he hesitates; on his return, Billy finds his father murdered and his mother injured, the house burned down. Against the sheriff's opinion that it was an accident, Billy sets out to look for those responsible. He finds her in the person of Black Jack, who was hired by Price, and his gang. Carter succeeds in eliminating the members one after the other until he can face the villain in a victorious duel.
