In the company of a trooper, Winslow starts out and it is not long before the men are on the murderer's trail. Joe Mary, the pursued man, espies them coming and from a place of vantage he shoots and kills the horses of both men; also the trooper. Winslow's canteen is punctured by Joe in the desert, and, unable to stand the thirst any longer, he falls in an exhausted condition upon the sand. Perceiving that Winslow is not feigning exhaustion, Joe goes to him and tantalizes him by repeated offers of his canteen of water. In desperation he begs Joe to kill him and just as he has raised his rifle, Winslow, who is a ventriloquist, utters a peculiar sound, which seems to have come from behind Joe, who, in turning around, is killed by Winslow. At the fort Winslow is received with homage. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
