| Plot Summary of Majesty's Rancho |
|---|
"Lance Sidway has landed in Hollywood but it's not the place for him. He decides to pack up and ride his beloved horse to the last of the wild west, the ranching country of Arizona. Before he leaves California though, he is smitten by the fiery Madge Stewart and, little does Sidway know but his path to the west will lead him right to Stewart's ranch! Fate certainly seems to want these two together! However, gangsters are rustling cattle from Stewart's ranch and the leader, Honey Bee Uhl, has a thing for Madge as well. This crazy tangle comes to a head when Uhl kidnaps Madge for a ransom and wants to keep her for himself. Lance won't allow it, even if it means a fight to the death."
