Stallion Road plot
"Towering untamed over the turbulent range where great men and great horses stampede to glory!"
Vet Larry Hanrahan himself catches anthrax by treating cows with anthrax, which he ignores a call from top horse breeder and friend Rory Teller to come and treat her thoroughbred champion and award-winning stallion. Rory is so annoyed at what she calls a light and short-sighted affair that she considers accepting a marriage proposal from the sweet talker and writer Stephen Purcell. But when she learns the real cause of the seriousness of Larry's condition, she makes a drastic decision: she herself will treat the dying vet with the same serum he uses to inoculate the cattle.
