Katy Dalton is sentenced to be hanged for killing the man with whom she was leaving the country. After the verdict is given she makes a desperate attempt to escape the courtroom and ends up under the wheels of a wagon and dies declaring her innocence. Her brother Frank, a famous gunman, arrives to avenge her. Coincidentally with his arrival, a series of mysterious murders begins, the victims of which are the jurors who voted for the condemnation of Katy. The sheriff investigates, not entirely convinced that the culprit is Frank. He discovers clues leading him to suspect his best friend John, who eventually confesses that he has been the killer, out of jealousy over Katy, and that he wished to avenge her death by killing the jurors who had convicted her of the murder. The sheriff realizes that John is insane and tries to arrest him. John escapes and is mortally wounded by Frank. Before dying he asks forgiveness from everyone.
