Synopsis:
An old newspaper article from the frontier days of America surfaces picturing Batman and claiming that he used a gun. Batman refutes the article, then investigates by travelling back in time with the help of Professor Nichols.

Batman arrives in Plains City and is soon made temporary marshal after capturing outlaw Pecos Pete. Batman deduces that Harris Harper is sabotaging the railroads. He captures Harper, then tracks down two men set to destory the railroad trestle. When the men try to escape, another lawman, Bat Masterson, arrives on the scene and shoots one of the outlaws.

Batman returns to his own time with the explanation that the article headline was referring to Bat Masterson, not Batman.
