Synopsis

Robert Holliday, a member of the North West Mounted Police, is betrothed to Ruth Hardy, an orphaned seminary student. On the eve of her marriage, Ruth learns from John Blakeman that he and her father had been partners in the fur smuggling business until Hardy was killed by Robert during a shootout. Shaken by this revelation, Ruth sends Robert a goodbye note and leaves with Blakeman for a trading post at Sampson's Pass. Subsequently, Robert is stationed at the pass and seeks Ruth out, but is warned to stay away by Blakeman. Meanwhile, Anitah, a half-breed, falls in love with Robert, but when she kills an unwelcome suitor, the Mountie is ordered to arrest her. After finally overtaking his quarry, Anitah provides Robert with evidence that Blakeman actually killed Ruth's father. Armed with this information, Robert goes in pursuit of Blakeman, who is killed while attempting to escape, thus clearing the way for a reconciliation between Robert and Ruth.
