Led by the murderous Ash, the hired guns of Stiles kill Clayborn and his wife but their young son John survives and joins his grandfather in Austin.
Review:
Duke Attorney At Law
A strong opening scene sets John Wayne up wonderfully. He takes full advantage in going from innocent child to man on a mission. Cy Kendall plays it perfectly as the robber baron who stole the family farm. Two Republic greats in director Joseph Kane and gorgeous Muriel Evans play a major role in the film’s success. Crème de la crème henchmen Jack Rube Clifford and Yakima Canutt all but ensures Duke’s demise with their skill and great intensity throughout. With all this, Arthur Aylesworth and Herbert Heywood have some scene stealing moments with great comic relief.King Of The Pecos is another wonderful John Wayne movie with an incredible cast and director.
