Plot Summary

When Troy Daniels and his family arrive in town, Toby, the town’s busybody is certain the young man is on the run. His suspicions are well founded - the boy is facing accusations from a childhood friend, the loss of his fiancee, and the probability of a hanging. In an exciting courtroom scene, Troy  runs between a bullet and his outlaw father.  He is later able to use this example as an object lesson of what Christ did when giving His life (the Innocent for the Guilty). Lots of twists and turns in the plot, and a beautiful surprise ending add to this wonderful musical drama that also emphasizes that God works “all things together for good.”hings together for good to them that love Him.”
