Pat is spoiled, selfish and controlled by her wealthy father, Major Henry Terrill.

The land in question is owned by Julie Maragon and both Terrill and Hannassey want it.

Great western and wonderful score by Jerome Moross.
And the audio with commentary (by Christopher Frayling) is very good too.
Thank you so much, Only Old Movies.
