Dakota

Sandra "Sandy" Poli, the daughter of Marko Poli, an immigrant who has risen to the position of railroad mogul, elopes with professional gambler John Devlin in 1871. Sandy wants to utilize their $20,000 nest fund to purchase land options that they would later sell to the railroad at a profit, knowing that the line will be expanded into Dakota. On the stage trip to Ft. Abercrombie, their fellow passengers are Jim Bender and Bigtree Collins, who practically own the town of Fargo, and Devlin is aware that they are prepared to protect the little empire... attempting to drive out the farmers by burning their property, destroying their wheat, and blaming the devastation on the Indians. Sandy and John come upon Captain Bounce, an irascible elderly seafarer as they continue their trek up the river on the "River Bird." Slagin and Carp, two of Bendender's thugs, board the boat and force John to hand over his $20,000 cash. Boat chase with Captain Bounce in pursuit of the robber's boat.
