In 1870, Dr. John Brighton and his wife Louise are on a wagon train heading for California. When they reach Oklahoma Territory, Louise dies during childbirth, but her baby girl survives. Louise is buried in the nearby town of Cherokee Wells, where her distraught husband decides to remain and practice medicine. He receives room and board from elderly widow Mrs. Fitzgerald, who also offers to help rear Dr. Brighton's child. Despite the town being a peaceful one, wealthy rancher Cass Dobie and his brother Mel stir up trouble. When the two brothers don't like a rival cattleman they undercut his price to try to force him out of business. Cass has secretly discovered oil on the land of his native neighbor, Charlie Smith. Oil is a relatively new commodity and few people know what it looks like or what it's worth. Cass Dobie offers to buy Charlie's land but when Charlie refuses to sell, Dobie threatens him. Dr. Brighton finds himself involved in this feud and the town's racial divide because of his friendship with the Smiths, with possible tragic consequences for all involved in it.

| User ReviewAllan CRoutine western about town doctor Joel McCrea trying to keep the peace in his small town. Brad Dexter plays the films baddie and Leonard Maltin noted that Alan Hale wears the same outfit in a disturbingly high number of scenes. |
| User ReviewGreg W131225: "Leisurely paced" is a good description. Not a bad film overall and I enjoyed Joel McCrea. He's right up there with other classic western stars. |
| User ReviewRandy RIt was a decent movie. Joel McCrea is a doc he help people who is sick. And then the bullies came to town. Mess with a friend of his. And he gets mad. Anyways it was alright decent movie. |
