The Governor's Daughter

• Watchlist

Jim Carey finds an old prospector dying in the desert, and is entrusted with his treasure as a reward for hastening for help. This good act is witnessed by Galvez, who harbors revenge against Carey. He finds his knife, finishes the old man in the desert, and charges Carey with the crime. In his wild ride for the doctor Carey saves the stage from a hold-up and rescues the governor's daughter. In the plea for executive clemency, made by his mother, to save him from the scaffold, she shows his picture to the governor and it is recognized by his daughter, which establishes his alibi, and brings his accuser, Galvez, to justice.
