Singing River Synopsis

A persistent drought threatens the crops of homesteader Lang Rush, and he faces a mortgage foreclosure by the bank. At the local saloon, outlaw Sam Hemp suggests that Lang rob the bank as restitution. The exchange escalates into a gunfight, which leaves Sam and his wealthy friend, Drayton, dead. Lang flees to the mountains and takes refuge in a deserted shack near Singing River, where he prospects for silver. Bert Condon, a former homesteader, trails Lang in the hope of collecting a $5,000 reward, but ultimately befriends the fugitive and assists in filing Lang's claim when he strikes ore. On his return to town, Lang rescues the sheriff's daughter, Alice Thornton, from Hemp's gang and defeats their leader, L. W. Bransom, in a fistfight. He then clears himself of the murder charge and wins Alice.
