Synopsis
"The production has everything to recommend it to those who like sensational drama of the old school. A falsely accused hero, recurring emphasis on the strain of the lost sheep, a faithful sweetheart, a mustached villain, the fantastic character of a half-wit and a stupendous climax ... " ( Moving Picture World, 23 Dec 1922). A mysterious murder forces Phil Bradbury to flee to a small town, where he assumes the name of Tom Silverton and falls in love with Ruth Blake. Phil's former sweetheart, Kate Van Dyke, and her new fiancé, Mark Leveridge, come to the town; Mark tries to frame Phil for the murder; and Phil is about to leave town when a forest fire threatens the next town. He runs a locomotive through the blazing timber to save the inhabitants, receives proof of his innocence, and marries Ruth.
