Jay, the defeated candidate for sheriff, picks a quarrel with Jack, the younger sheriff. He snatches Jack's gun, and coolly insults him. Jack grabs Jay's gun and draws on him. Jay calls attention to the fact that he is shooting in self-defense. When the elder brother arrives he finds his brother dead, and he is prevented from shooting Jay by bystanders who tell him that Jay only protected himself. Jay leaves. Fred examines the gun in Jack's hand, which Jack had snatched from Jay. Finding it empty, he at once realizes that his brother met death through a deliberate murder. He informs the bystanders that he intends to avenge his brother's death if he has to follow Jay to perdition. The man hunt begins. Into the desert the two men go. A sandstorm comes up. Both lose their horses. Days pass. Reduced to his last shell Fred fires, only to miss. Jay sees him throw away his gun and starts for him. Fred is helpless from weakness. Jay kicks and curses him and edges off with his gun covering him. He, too, has expended his ammunition. Knife in hand, Jay starts for him, and with the strength of a cornered beast the sheriff wards him off. The death struggle begins. When the sun sets the sheriff stands over the man, his oath of vengeance fulfilled. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
