Synopsis by Hans J. Wollstein
Veteran action hero William Russell starred opposite his offscreen wife Helen Ferguson in this typical Fox oater about a miner who finds himself up against a master swindler (George Webb). Onscreen from 1912, Russell had played Robin Hood (1912) and starred in the serial The Diamond in the Sky (1915) before signing with William Fox. A runner-up to Tom Mix at the studio in the early 1920s, Russell died of pneumonia at the age of 42.
