Golden Silence

• Watchlist

Sam Corwin, stage line owner and camp bully, makes unwelcome love to Polly, daughter of an old prospector. The old man drives him off the place at gunpoint and Sam conspires to have the old man sent to prison. He stages a fake hold-up, leaving the old man's hat on the scene. This is managed with the connivance of one of Sam's stage drivers. By one of those far-fetched coincidences of the screen the whole plot is unfolded to a stranger in those parts, and he impersonates the hold-up artist, double-crossing the plotters, vindicating the old man, overthrowing the villains, and in the end winning the girl.
