Recently released from prison, McLaglen attempts to free a fellow convict on the promise of a $100,000 payment, but after he and Macready kidnap the warden's daughter, Spain, the plot fails. Next the felonious pair attempts to snatch the body of Abraham Lincoln and hold it for ransom, but
confederate Muir drunkenly babbles the plans and Secret Service agents arrest the gang. Though this film is based upon a real incident, it fails to hold interest. The director is Victor McLaglen's son.
