Synopsis

As described in a film magazine, Jim (Bushman) goes west to forget an affair with a vivacious but heartless eastern girl. He is wounded by a gang of toughs who try to scare him away from his mine, and Mollie (Bayne) nurses him until he recovers. Verda (Adams), his former sweetheart, comes west as the wife of his chum Bob (Mortimer). While Bob places his wife in Jim's care and leaves on a business trip, Verda plans to run away with the leader of the thugs, who has stolen the gold from Jim's mine. However, the early return of Jim frustrates her plans, so she accuses Jim of insulting her. Bob then swears that he will kill Jim, but is shot by the gang leader. Verda and the gangster leave, but Jim overtakes them and brings Verda back to her dying husband. She is then driven out of town, and Jim and Mollie have a happy reunion.

Scottie Dean, passager d'un baleinier, jette par-dessus bord le Capitaine Jim Blake après que celui-ci a attaqué sa femme Isobel. Se croyant responsable de la mort du capitaine, il s'enfuit dans les Territoires du Nord-Ouest. Le sergent William MacVeigh, chargé de le rattraper, est sur le point d'aboutir quand il rencontre Isobel en train de tirer un traîneau censé porter le cercueil de son mari et, subjugué par sa beauté, permet sans le vouloir au couple de s'échapper. Le caporal Bucky Smith, un ennemi de MacVeigh, fait remarquer que le sergent a fait une faute et jure d'attraper Dean lui-même, forçant ainsi MacVeigh à arrêter Dean pour protéger Isobel. MacVeigh permet ensuite à Dean de s'échapper mais plus tard Dean revient vers MacVeigh en lui demandant de l'aide pour sa femme, malade. Dean meurt après avoir appris que Blake n'est pas mort et MacVeigh, toujours amoureux d'Isobel, va la voir. Délirante sous l'influence de la fièvre, elle le rejette, le rendant responsable de la mort de son mari.
