A retired marshal's wedding is interrupted when he learns a killer he had sent to jail will return to town on the noon train to seek revenge. The townspeople refuse to help the marshal, so he is forced to take up his badge and guns again. This alienates his new bride, a Quaker, who is opposed to any kind of violence.
