More DescriptionEllis Carleton, playboy son of San Francisco multi-millionaire John A., has reached the end of his father's rope. Presented a $100 check and a long train ticket to Montana and his father's ranch. Ellie soon finds himself broke and brooding and lightly regarded by his new companions. Before long, however, he wins them over with his boxing and wrestling skills. Pretty soon, he's one of the boys, earning his keep, learning "cowboying" and loving it. What Ellie doesn't learn is how to honor the long-standing truce between the Ragged H folks and those of old King, his father's archenemy from way back. The feud began when King secured and fenced off the White Divide and King's Highway, the straight path between Carleton's Bay State Ranch and the cattle market. To Ellie, the restriction is only a challenge. He will not be kept off King's Highway, regardless of the consequences, especially when he discovers that old King has an especially irresistible daughter.
