| Summary |
Laurie, an Oklahoma farm girl, is courted by boisterous cowboy Curly and by menacing, obsessive farm hand Jud Frye. Fearing that Jud will do something terrible to Curly, Laurie accepts Jud's invitation to the box social. But Curly rescues Laurie from Jud's unwanted advances, and wins her hand. On the eve of their wedding, Laurie and Curly are menaced by Jud. During a fight with Curly, Jud falls on his own knife and is killed. The local deputy insists that Curly be arrested, but he is outvoted by Curly's friends, and the newlyweds are permitted to ride off on their honeymoon. |
