    Where to Watch

Ken Maynard plays a dual role in this tale of an outlaw who goes straight when a mishap leads him to assume the identity of his twin brother, the local sheriff. Marceline Day, Charles King.

Maynard plays a dual role, that of the innocently convicted "Pocatello Kid," and his no-good sheriff brother. It opens with Maynard as the "Kid" breaking jail and the ensuing manhunt. When the sheriff is killed in a shootout, Maynard switches identity with him. But the sheriff's girl proves to be an honest woman and Maynard can't bring himself to deceive her. So he admits his identity, then goes in pursuit of the real culprits. A likable hoofbeat opera.
