Synopsis
Jim Darby is convicted of stealing, and sentenced to be transported to Botany Bay. On the ship on the way there, he tires of getting so poorly treated that he and a few associates plot to escape. Late one night, they sneak away from the camp, and go on the run. When one of the escaped prisoners kills one of the guards who are looking for them, they must make sure they do not get caught. When they eventually do, they are taken to be hanged in Sydney, but by then, Jim has met up with the governor’s daughter Elizabeth and fallen in love with her.
