'This is a romance continuing the adventures of the gentleman bushranger, "Lone- Hand Laracy," whose exploits formed one of the main themes in a previous serial in the "Daily Examiner." Laracy, having found a gold mine and fallen in love with a struggling doctor's daughter, is beset with the desire to reform and lead a respectable life, but he is handicapped by the fact that the troopers are looking for him with a reward on his head, dead or alive.'
