'Frank Gardiner, or to give his real name, Frank Christie, was a Goulburn lad, early accused of theft by his father, and ordered to quit. Then he meets his future wife, and his bushranging career leads him into many tight holes. He gallantly saves his sweetheart from the sea, where she has been cast by her father, and finally ends up in gaol, where he has been sentenced to serve 32 years' hard labour. After 10 years, however, he is released. In the picture there are 25 scenes well dramatised and well photographed.'
