He is disgusted with the rough and primitive environment of the camp. But a chance meeting with Nell Dugan, a beautiful and unsophisticated girl, promises entertainment for the man from the city. Nell's life has been bounded by the home she keeps for her grandfather and the simple wooing of Steve Rock, a clean-living lumberman. Nell is carried away by Sturgeon's artfulness and Steve observes the growing interest of Nell and Sturgeon for each other. Sturgeon one day, while drawing a kerchief from his pocket, loses a letter and Steve, who is ever near, finds it. It is a letter from Sturgeon's wife. The big heart of Steve cannot grasp the fact that a man is so despicable as to make sport of an innocent girl. Sturgeon surprises Steve with the letter and "fires" him on the spot. Steve warns Sturgeon that if Nell comes to harm through him he will take justice in his own hands. Sturgeon is offered a position with another concern that gives him an opportunity to return to the city. He makes ready to leave the camp, but he does not intend to give up Nell. He uses all his influence over her and prevails upon her to leave her grandfather and go away with him. When night falls Nell packs her belongings and meets Sturgeon. A half-breed hunchback called "Frenchy" observes them, becomes suspicious, and warns Steve. The latter is in the midst of a fight with a few of the tough characters of the camp, who have been prevailed upon by Sturgeon to waylay Steve. Steve breaks away and overtakes Sturgeon and Nell as they enter a shack, which is used to store the dynamite used in the camp. Nell realizes the real character of the man and his designs. Her struggle but fans the flame of his desire. Steve batters in the door, undeterred by the shots Sturgeon sends at his through the cracks of the door, and a terrible encounter ensues. The lamp is overturned, the shack is swept with flames, through which Steve carries Nell. The flames spread to the dynamite and the cabin is blown to atoms, Sturgeon perishing in the explosion.
