Sue Burman and Ralph Tuck meet and fall in love, despite the feud existing between their families. Lud Conners, a brutal mountaineer, also loves Sue and spies upon her. He informs her father of her clandestine meetings with Ralph and is only prevented from killing Ralph by Sue. In order that the Burman-Tuck feud may continue, Lud shoots and wounds Sue's grandfather. The Burmans, in an uproar, declare war on the Tucks. Sue's father sets out to "lay for" the Tucks. Jud Tuck, Ralph's father, learning of his son's infatuation, leaves the house with his gun to protect his son. Tuck and Burman meet, each thinking the feud has been revived, and in a duel Tuck is wounded, and Burman is shot down. Ralph Tuck, upon his father's return, hears that Burman has been wounded and determines to find him and take him home. While on his way home, he encounters Sue, who, thinking that Ralph has shot her father, vows vengeance upon the Tucks. Sue encourages the mountaineers, who go to the Tuck home and demand Ralph, only to find that he has fled to the city. Five years have passed and Sue is succumbing to the violent wooing of Lud Conners. Sue's father, who became demented following the duel, recovers his senses and exonerates Ralph. Ralph comes home only to find his father has been killed. He takes up his gun to avenge his father's death, but his mother pleads with him to bury the past. Meanwhile Lud is so persistent in his lovemaking that Sue promises to marry him. She and Lud set out for the parson and encounter Ralph on the way. Lud insults Ralph, and a rifle fight ensues, in which Lud is wounded. Sue remembers her promise to Ralph. After taking Lud home, whom she now loathes, she goes to the Tuck home and asks Ralph and his mother to take her into the family. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
