"David Collins, a westerner, in search of a 'silhouette girl' with whom he has fallen in love under mysterious circumstances, is appointed guardian to Nan Higgins, an orphan. He entrusts her to a neighbor, who maltreats her. In his business ventures Dave has run across a gang of crooks who swear to get him and come within an ace of doing so, but for the timely interference of Nan, the conqueror of his heart." ( Moving Picture World, 1923 ).
