Synopsis
Sergeant O'Malley of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police is sent into the United States in search of the killer of La Grange, a hardened saloon keeper. He tracks his man (Bud Lanier) to the Baldy Mountain. Bud is a member of a bandit gang, and to gain the gang's confidence, O'Malley robs a bank in broad daylight. He meets and falls in love with Bud's sister, Rose, who helps him escape when he is suspected of being a traitor to the gang. Discovering that Bud killed La Grange to protect a dead sister's honor, he frees Bud at the border, then clears his action with the commanding officer and returns to the woman he loves.
