Synopsis

Hootie Kyle was a man of meager means, but possessed of an honest heart; now, his credit had failed him. Matt Dillon and Festus offered him a loan, a kindness that quickly soured when Hootie was cheated out of the money in a dishonest game of cards. Soon after, circumstances conspired to frame Hootie for the murder of the very card shark who had defrauded him.
