Wally, the younger, is a wood-cutter, while Phil is a cripple. The brothers receive word from a city physician that Phil can recover from his infirmity only by means of an operation which will cost $800. The amount, however, is far larger than they ever expect to own at one time. In the meantime, Nan Leslie, of the U.S. Revenue Service, is detailed to go into the mountain districts of Kentucky and get evidence against a gang of moonshiners. Nan meets Wally and Phil, neither of whom suspect her identity. Nan and Wally soon learn to love each other. When it becomes apparent that Phil must undergo an expensive operation or remain a cripple for the rest of his days, he joins the moonshiners. In making her investigations, Nan learns that Wally is one of the gang. The moonshiners discover that Nan is a revenue agent and take her prisoner. Wally divides the money he has saved for Phil's operation among the moonshiners with the understanding that he alone shall deal with the woman. When he and Nan are alone he explains to her why he became a moonshiner. She softens, renounces the government service to wed Wally and together they go out to honestly earn the money for Phil's operation. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
