Synopsis:
Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson are sent back in time to 1854 by Professor Nichols in order to discover what happened to the lost treasure of Rex Spears, the ancestor of Bruce's friend. They discover that Spears and young orphan Lorenzo Bagg are transporting the money by stagecoach. Bandits attack the coach forcing Spears to retreat into a canyon. The former prospector is fatally bitten by a rattlesnake. Before dying he buried the treasure in the canyon. Batman and Robin then see an avalanche which covers the area.
When Bruce and Dick return to their own time, they are able to remember the location of the treasure. They then aid the ancestors of Spears and Bagg to uncover the money and the will of Rex Spears.
