One of the marshal's deputies accosts them, takes the rifle, and empties it of shells. He then asks the miner what he will do if he returns the rifle to him. When the miner says he will reload it and continue on to the marshal's office, the deputy smashes the rifle against the side of a building before handing the remains back to him.

When a card cheat is secretly lynched, the five men responsible all start turning up strangled by various grisly methods. Gambler Van Morgan (Martin) tried to stop the lynching, which came about mostly because of Nick Evers (Creator/RoddyMcDowall), an unlikeable sort who thinks that one of the lynchers is killing the rest to eliminate witnesses to the crime. Van sticks around to sort out the mess personally, as a pair of newcomers get the attention of the town: Lily Langford (Inger Stevens), a madam who uses a barbershop for a front; and the Reverend Johnathan Rudd (Mitchum) a gun-toting preacher not above using his six-shooters to fill his church.
