The story

In the besieged environs of Peaceful Gulch, threatened by a marauding contingent of bandits and brigands, the town's mayor, formulates a stratagem to deter the encroaching menace. This plan entails the dissemination of a fabricated report heralding the imminent arrival of three resolute marshals (the Stooges), their identities appropriated from a wanted poster portraying vagrants, valued at a nominal price. Despite this intricate scheme, the Stooges nearly face expulsion from the township subsequent to a misguided endeavor to administer a purported panacea to the ailing sheriff, afflicted with lumbago, which imperils his well-being.
