The Cost of Hatred

Young Elsie Graves is married to Justice Graves, a brutal, violent man who beats her. She falls in love with recent widower Robert Amory, who lives next door with his son Ned. One day Justice comes home to find his wife and Amory embracing; he shoots the man, then takes his daughter Sarita and heads for Mexico. Several years later young Ned, now a man, is en route to Mexico to accept a diplomatic position when he is robbed, beaten, and thrown into jail in a small Mexican town. To his shock, he finds that the man responsible for his predicament is none other than Justice Graves. Complications ensue.
