Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Small town sheriff "Silent" Davidson tries to protect aging sheep rancher Scott Martin and his daughter, Jean, from the predations of local cattlemen. Head cattleman Pete Kane and banker Jeff Sedley ambush the old man and frame the sheriff for his murder, but Scott is only badly wounded. Recovering consciousness, he tells Jean who the real culprits are. However, Kane seizes and imprisons her. Ultimately, Silent breaks out of jail, finds and frees Jean from her bonds, proves his innocence, and brings Kane and Sedley to justice. Naturally, he wins Jean's heart.
