Gun Smoke (1945)

Plot

U.S. Marshals Nevada Jack McKenzie and Sandy Hopkins stumble upon a tragic scene: an overturned stagecoach with its driver and passenger dead. The passenger, archaeologist Hinkley, had recently unearthed a treasure trove of gold relics at an ancient Indian site, now stolen by a ruthless gang. Hinkley's daughter, Jane, reveals that only the old Indian guide, Shag, knows the site’s location. Before the Marshals can reach him, the outlaws kill Shag for the information. However, Hinkley’s son, Joel, arrives just in time to lead Nevada and Sandy to the site before the gang strikes again.
