# Branded a Coward

Safely from behind some shrubbery, Johnny Hume (Mickey Rentschler), a boy of 6 or 7, witnesses the slaughter of his mother, father and brother by the guns of a gang led by "the Cat" (Yakima Canutt). Twenty years later finds Johnny (Johnny Mack Brown) grown to manhood, an expert bronc rider and target shooter - but paralyzed with fearful memories in an actual gunfight.
