Notes:John Keith is wanted for murder. For four years, Mountie Conniston chased him around the far north, finally catching him. But Conniston is dying. He has gained respect for Keith and suggests that the outlaw take on his identity. Keith returns to civilization but his true identity is discovered by a devious Chinese restaurant owner. To complicate matters, Keith finds himself falling in love with Conniston's sister, Mary. In the end, Keith kills the Chinese guy in self-defense, is cleared for the original murder and falls in love with Mary after revealing his true identity.
