Plot
Nita Valyez, half Spanish and half Irish, is both attracted and disgusted by Carlos, a violent and dangerous man. At the same time, Sheriff Big Jim takes a lukewarm interest in her. When Carlos kills a trader, he forces her to flee with him. Jim, having set out on their trail, finds them in a small town on the border where an epidemic is raging. Carlos is dying and Nita takes care of him with great devotion. Jim, though touched by her manifestation of love, takes Nita away from her, both to save her and to convince her to love him.
