IN BRIEF: Fred Oakes has been sentenced to territorial penitentiary at Battery Rock, sentenced to hang for the murder of old judge Melthier. But the judge's death was really an accident, and Hoppy has secured a release signed by Gov. Martin. He and California ride to deliver it to the Warden Davis, only to learn Oakes has escaped and killed a guard. Did someone intercept the telegram from the governor? Does someone want Oakes to die? Hoppy tracks Oakes, and starts to take him back to the pen when guards Mahoney and Taggart accost them. Hoppy eventually deduces that Taggart was behind a scheme to kill the guard, Jackson, who was really an undercover man looking into a series of escapes from the prison. This was a way for Taggart to cover his trail. [Fox]
