Synopsis
Fred Cummings brings his young wife to an isolated northern trading post on the Hudson Bay, where she becomes the idol of the 17 inhabitants. She is particularly idolized by Jan Allaire, a young man inexperienced with women, who sees in Nancy the girl of his dreams. Blanding, a New York fur trader, arrives at the post, and his advances toward Nancy are noticed by Jan and his friends. According to their code of honor, they swear to protect her against Blanding. Nancy's husband disappears while on a trapping mission, and Jan discovers his frozen body but tells Nancy he is only injured. Blanding attempts an attack upon Nancy but is thrashed and sent from the post by Jan and his friends. Forcing the truth from Jan, Nancy takes her child and returns to the United States, but Jan remains hopeful that someday she will return to him.
