In Old California

When dignified Boston pharmacist Tom Craig (John Wayne) heads out West to set up shop in California, he's unaware that the Gold Rush is about to explode and change the state forever. The locals quickly take a disliking to the pharmacist and poison his meds, causing Craig to almost lose his business. When typhoid fever strikes the town, however, Craig gets a chance to prove his worth in this quirky Western that features Wayne in an unusual role.
