Synopsis
When Mamie Lee's father, Sam Corwin, is sentenced to jail for forgery, the sheriff, Ed Cass, offers to cover the debt in return for Mamie Lee's hand in marriage. The distraught daughter agrees, and Cass robs the saloon to obtain the money, framing Jim Kane, his rival for Mamie's affections, for the crime. Jim is sent to jail an embittered man. In the adjacent cell he watches an Italian stonecutter, a condemned murderer, spend the night before his execution chiseling a figure of Christ. After the sculptor collapses from exhaustion, Jim is astounded to see the spirit of Christ appear and minister to the condemned man. His religious experience converts Jim to Christianity. Meanwhile, Mamie Lee discovers a confession to the robbery written by Cass and brings it to the judge. Realizing that he is doomed, the sheriff kills himself, thus freeing Jim to begin life anew with Mamie Lee.
