Maynard appears here as a deputy marshal, assigned to bring to justice one particular baron and his band of cattle rustlers and gunmen a\ t lio had been terrorizing Nca\ t Mexico and making it unsafe for pioneer settlers. Then there is Tarzan, the A\ r hite steed, Avho is a veritable marvel among, horses. He is a vital part of “The iAnd Beyond the LaAV. ’’ Admirers of screen talent should not miss this marvellous production.
