Synopsis

"[Harry] Tracy [1870--1902] was one of the west's bad men during the days when it was young. ... As we see him he was more sinned against than sinning. Marked with the stigma of crime after he had escaped from a Texas gambling hall, he is everywhere sought as a dangerous man. He is forced to flee from state to state, the hunted of posses. There are brief spans of restfullness or security, but these are always broken by impending sounds of pursuit as the net is drawn closer. The outlaw can never relax; he must always be ready to fight back. Finally they corner him and he, but one cartridge left him, turns it on himself." ( Motion Picture News, 31 Mar 1928, p1041.)
