Searching for a doctor who can help him get his son to speak again--the boy hadn't uttered a word since he saw his mother die in the fire that burned down the family home--a Confederate veteran finds himself facing a 30-day jail sentence when he's unfairly accused of starting a brawl in a small town.

Ivey fights back with violence and destruction, but Dave is determined to counter him legally... a feeling not shared by his associates.
