Jess Slocum is a mountain girl who was stolen as a baby by moonshiner Jim. She was raised to hate America, but is now taken in by Captain Earle Neville when Jim is sent to jail. Earle takes care of Jess, who is wounded, but she is afraid of her new surroundings and soon runs back to the mountain. On her way back, she overhears a group of Mexican planning to destroy the nearby camp. She rushes back to warn them and is declared a hero. Jim confesses Jess is the daughter of Colonel Tremaine. He took revenge on the Colonel when he was thrown out of the camp. Jess is reunited with her father and falls in love with Earle.
