The Lucky Texan is a 1934 American Lonestar Films B-movie Western film featuring John Wayne (five years before his breakthrough appearance in Stagecoach), Barbara Sheldon, Gabby Hayes, and the legendary stuntman and actor Yakima Canutt. It was written and directed by Robert N. Bradbury. It also contains a rare (perhaps unique) appearance by "Gabby" Hayes without a beard and in drag.
Jerry visits his uncle Grandy after finishing college and they decide to look after the ranch. Grandy informs Jerry of the arrival of his grand daughter Betty and they both look forward to her joining them. One day while fixing a horse's hoof they find gold embedded in the hoof. They go to the creek and strike gold. They bring the gold to the local assayer Mr. Harris who along with his associate Mr. Cole has been stealing Grandy's cattle. They plot to deprive Grandy of his ranch.
