The Spanish Jade

In a provincial Spanish town, during the mid-nineteenth century, Manuela is sold as a dancing girl to a strolling musician. In their wanderings, she meets Don Bartolome, who left his poor father Don Luis to become a highwayman. Bartolome falls in love with Manuela and takes her with him after killing the musician. When they meet Osmund Manvers, an English squire, Bartolome wants to use Manuela to rob him, but Manvers rescues Manuela from a gang of drifters and carries her into the country. Later, Manuela stabs and kills Bartolome after he threatens her. Manuela flees and Manvers searches for her. When Don Luis learns about Bartolome's death, he challenges Manvers to a duel. After Manvers refuses, Tormillo, Don Luis' servant, stabs Manvers in the arm. When Manuela offers her life to Don Luis to save Manvers, Don Luis relents, but Tormillo remains frantic. Manvers' valet and friend, Gil Perez, prepares poison for Tormillo, but Tormillo demands that Gil Perez drink first. To save Manvers and Manuela, first Gil Perez drinks the poison, then Tormillo drinks it, after which they both die. Manvers and Manuela are now reunited.
