Irish immigrant Nora (Love) arrives at Big Boy Morgan's (Baxter) ranch on the Mexico–United States border to visit her brother. Holdbrook (McGrail), an arms smuggler, tries to reclaim a debt owed by Morgan's father by taking the ranch, although Morgan wants to pay him money instead. Holdbrook and Morgan both fall for Nora, who likes Morgan. Holdbrook is implicated in smuggling, and Nora and Morgan are married.[1][8]
