THE END.

 

Clayton plays the part of Raymond d'Arcy a former Army Lieutenant who was convicted of stealing an army payroll,
which he denied. Rocky Lane takes over the search for d'Arcy when Nugget realizes Deputy Thorpe is following him.
This is an involved plot as it seems the army payroll was never located and everyone assumed that d'Arcy hid it and now
that he's escaped, everyone thinks he's going after the loot. The law and the bad guys are all involved in this interesting
plot. What happened to the payroll? Is d'Arcy really innocent? What ever happened to Major Alvin Bishop who completely
vanished after the payroll turned up missing? You'll have to watch it to get the answers!
