During the Great Depression, when natural catastrophes including floods
destroy the homes of thousands,.crooked, con man Phineas Flagg buys up all
the ranches in Arizona’s Gunsmoke Valley at the bargain price of $2 per
acre. The displaced families are only too happy to buy what Flagg
misrepresents as 40 acres of prime farmland per family at the bargain price
of $50 an acre. What he doesn’t tell the migrants is that the entire area
has been condemned under the law of eminent domain and will soon be flooded
for the construction of a new dam. The group’s leader, Judge Warren,
initially disregards the Mesquiteers’ warnings that they’re being conned,,
but Stony’ romances his beautiful granddaughter Marion,, and the settlers
accept the Mesquiteers’ help,, but is it too late? Written by duke1029
