Plot
As described in a film magazine review,[2] Tom Collins, a Los Angeles policeman, in love with Louise Hollister, is compelled to arrest her brother Roy on a charge of killing police officer Britt. Louise turns against him. At his trial Roy is condemned to death for the killing. Tom runs down the actual guilty man and frustrates an attempt to rob banker John Pendleton's home. A storm breaks down telegraphic communication, and Tom makes a desperate ride to save Roy on the eve of his scheduled execution. He succeeds, and is promoted and wins back the affection of Louise.
