The old drunk felt that he was in paradise when the whiskey wagon turned up. Whereas the preacher was horrified - until he learned how valuable it was. Other people had different views. The marshal of Huyton township wanted to know who owned it, while local businessmen fought over the cargo. Then things got worse. The old drunk went missing and the wagon disappeared, while the local gun store was raided. Bounty hunters came into town, and one of them was on the prod. It all erupted with shoot-outs and a lynching, as all the respectable citizens fell under suspicion. When would the blood stop flowing?
