IN BRIEF: Hoppy and California are on their way through mesa country when they come upon Pop Purvis, guarding his cattle. A panther which no one has seen has been killing and stampeding cattle, he reports. Purvis had hopes of selling off enough of the herd to pay off his mortgage to banker Clark Loomis and to give a present to his daughter Jane, who's marrying soon. Folks are scared. Ranchers meet in the town of Broken Arrow. Thad Dixon is one of the ranchers. "Trouble, here we come," sighs California. Purvis' ranch was once an old Indian medicine ground, and some suspect bad medicine has returned. Hoppy scoffs at the "granny talk" and vows to get the panther. Purvis is killed by the panther. Jane is discouraged. Loomis and Dixon urge her to sell the ranch but she decides to stay. "Yipee, what a gal," exclaims California. The cowboys go after the panther and are caught in a stampede. Hoppy sets a trap and proves Dixon is the panther. He used a glove with steel claws on it to fake the panther killings.
