What happens

Westward Ho is a 1935 American Western film directed by Robert N. Bradbury and starring John Wayne and Sheila Bromley. It was released by the recently created Republic Pictures and was produced by Paul Malvern, who had previously produced several of Wayne's Westerns under the Lonestar Productions division of Monogram Pictures. Many consider the film among the earliest revisionist Westerns. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
