Antonio Fasani, a gendarme, recognizes the badly wanted fugitive, Raniero Benedetti. Beatrice is taken out by Raniero and drugged; she is taken to a cellar dungeon and sold by him. Beatrice's parents, worried over the absence of Beatrice, appeal to the gendarmes for aid. Antonio goes to their house, is shown a picture of Beatrice and recognizes her as the girl he saw with Raniero. He trails Raniero and rescues Beatrice. The gendarmes raid Raniero's place. Raniero escapes and takes to smuggling. Antonio and his assistants leave for the border to capture Raniero. Antonio is injured. Raniero escapes and seeks shelter in Antonio's house, saying he is a traveler lost in the mountains. Beatrice, who has become Antonio's wife, recognizes Raniero. He seeks to make love to her, but she escapes from him, and leaves the house on horseback. Raniero pursues her; he overtakes her, starts to throw her over the cliff when he is spied by Antonio, who shoots and kills him. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
