synopsis
South African-born leading man Bruce Gordon stars in this pedestrian silent western about a marshal going undercover as a bandit in order to flush out the leader of a notorious gang of crooks smuggling diamonds across the Mexican border. The marshal almost gives up the masquerade when he falls for a lovely Mexican senorita (1924 WAMPAS Baby Star Carmelita Geraghty), the daughter of an intended victim (Harry Lonsdale), who, quite reasonably, hesitates to get involved with a common thief. This movie was released two years after Lonsdale's death.
