Synopsis
"In the desolated wilds is a Trading Post, to which Oliver Thornton went to seek obscurity after being falsely convicted of a crime in the States. Fate brought him a wife, a girl from the wilds, and soon a child, and all was happy until his prison record became known to a villainous trapper who used this information to turn Thorton's wife against him. Failing in this, Duclos, the trapper, and his Indian aides, kidnap the wife. Thornton's brother arrives at the Post with news of Oliver's name being cleared of the crime for which he was innocently convicted. The two brothers rescue Oliver's wife and Duclos, the trapper, is killed by one of the Indians whom he had double-crossed." ( Moving Picture World, 25 Mar 1922, p404.)
