Darcy of the Northwest Mounted

John Paul and his daughter, Annie, run a trading post in the Canadian Northwest. Darcy a sergeant of the mounted police, is particularly interested in Annie, and she in him. Annie's mother deserted her and her father when she was a baby, and long was considered dead. It is a staggering surprise to Paul when she suddenly appears and threatens to take her daughter unless Paul can secure sufficient money to gratify her desires. Paul promises to do what he can in the matter and begs her not to see Annie. He promises to bring her what money he can secure that night. Jacques and Batienne, two cattle rustlers, who pose as trappers, have decided to hold up the messenger for the Indian reservation. Jacques is in love with Annie. Paul tries to borrow money, but fails, so, he seeks out his wife that night and tells her of his failure and begs her to go away. For the sake of her daughter she agrees. The holdup of the messenger proves successful with the exception that the messenger was killed in the struggle. Jacques had stolen Paul's pistol for the raid, and this, together with the fact that Paul was absent from home at the time of the holdup occurred, and because he refused to tell where he was or whom he was with, forces Darcy reluctantly to arrest him. Jacques, seeing a chance for a double revenge, urges Annie to release her father by taking a short cut with him through the woods, overtaking Darcy and his prisoner. Annie, on the verge of madness at the arrest of her father, agrees. Arming herself with a rifle she rides out with Jacques. She conceals herself beside the road and when her father and Darcy appear, she shoots the latter and then rides away with Jacques. Darcy is only stunned by the bullet and with the aid of Paul quickly picks up the trail of the would-be assassin and follows it. Jacques preys on Annie's fears by telling her that she is a murderess and must flee the country. He offers to show her the way to the railroad station. Annie's mother, her mind bent on what she has lost and her unhappy condition, loses her way in the woods and stumbles on the back end of Jacques' cabin. Finding the door open, she enters the kitchen. She finds food and drink and soon falls into a drunken sleep. Sometime later Jacques and Annie enter the front end of the cabin, he telling her it is necessary to rest. Once inside, his intentions toward the girl are made plain. His struggle with her is interrupted by the unknown woman, who dashes from the rear and attacks him. They fight through the door into the kitchen. In the struggle she is killed. Jacques, fearful of the consequence of his crime, bars the door leading to the inner room and leaves Annie a prisoner. He mounts his horse and rides away. Paul and Darcy find her. They also find the body of her mother, unknown to her. Darcy and Paul and his daughter go back to their home and take up the trail to find Jacques. Jacques is on the point of collapse when apprehended by Darcy. He is eager to confess and exonerate Paul of all blame in the holdup. Darcy takes Jacques back and secures Batienne. Darcy and Annie at last find themselves free to marry.
