Billy Burns (George "Gabby" Hayes) is prone to tall tales. He can tell you about the sprawling ranch of Brandyhead Jones. Or about grasshoppers so big and tough they pick their teeth with barbed wire. But one thing Billy can never overstate is his friendship with Bat Masterson - and how he's sure Bat will honor his request to come to Liberal, Kansas, and stop the festering range war between wheat farmers and cattlemen.
