Deathbed Reckoning
A bounty hunter disguises himself as an Indian. He wants to prove against a deceased landowner that she led a double life as a wanted robber and murderer. He pretends to be a shaman in order to confirm his suspicions behind the back of her grieving maid and then disappear with the body. Unfortunately for the bounty hunter this does not agree with the maid, who has her own plans for him...
