Synopsis
In 1882 Jim Logan arrives in a small town in Wyoming to inquire about his sister Alice, whose husband, Wade Curry, a dishonest mine speculator, has deserted her. He finds her ill and learns that her marriage was fraudulent. Curry arrives, and in a fight with Logan he kills Alice. Finding it impossible to convict Curry of his crimes, Logan goes to the Southwest with Winnie, the daughter of Curry's partner. Ten years later, Logan is a successful rancher and Winnie has returned home from a convent school. Discovering the identity of the girl, Curry conspires with a lawyer to get possession of Winnie and have Logan charged with murder. But Logan appeals to an assembly of citizens, and after hearing the whole tale, the judge acquits him. Curry, conscience-stricken, is arrested.
