Griffith's first feature-length Western is a rough and ready action picture laid during the Gold Rush. Nell, a tough dance hall woman (Eugenie Besserer) gets into a fight with two floozies who try to rob her. When one dies, a posse is organized to bring her in. Mexican bandit Richard Barthelmess disperses the lynch mob, but Nell dies anyway from a stray bullet. Barthelmess is jailed until Chiquita (Clarine Seymour) his sweetheart stages a daring escape for them both.
