Flynn. gives Drake another chance, and the father, until his death, impresses on the boy, Steve, the debt they owe “Old Jim.” Twenty years later; Steve meets “Young Jim” Flynn, his benefactor’s son. Sent by Old Jim, incapacitated through an accident in which Kate, his daughter, is temporarily blinded, to take charge of the company’s—the Polaris—woods operations, the youth is indulging in a drunken spree. Learning of Polaris’ dire straits, and hoping to do something for Old Jim, Steve hastens to the company’s headaquarters. He finds Franz plotting against the Flynns. Worsting Franz in a fist fight, the Polaris crew assumes that he is Flynn’s son, and Steve takes charge, as “Young Jim.” A photograph of Kate Flynn, which Steve finds, immensely increases his desire to aid Old Jim. He gains the warm friendship of LaFane, queer woods scout. Steve adds to Franz’s hate by driving him away from Mary Wolf, young Indian girl whom he has been abusing, and escapes a death trap set for him. Franz discovers Drake’s impersonation. Threatened with disclosure, Steve accuses Franz of setting the death trap, exhibiting evidence, and the man dare not act. Steve sends LaFane to find Young Jim and sober him up. |
