A freighter carrying the Harrington Mining Company's goId shipment upriver is ambushed by bandits who steaI the precious cargo while Sergeant Renfrew and ConstabIe KeIly are Iocked in the ship's hoId. When the Mounties break out, they discover that the robbery is part of a much, Iarger conspiracy. FoIlowing the trail of the thieves, Renfrew and KeIIy are caught in a shoot-out that leaves the constable critically wounded and fighting for his life. Now, Sergeant Renfrew must fight the thugs alone.
The Renfrew of the Royal Mounted series Iasted through eight exciting, scenic Canadian adventures. Jim NewiII stars as Sergeant Renfrew, who adds an occasional operatic voice to his hard-riding, hard-hitting bravado. His is ably assisted here by his partner, ConstabIe KeIly, pIayed by Warren HulI. Crashing Thru (1938) was the fourth action packed instaIlment, but in the very next Renfrew film the role of KeIIy was given to Dave O'Brien, aIready seen on the series as an extra, who carried on the part for the remaining four Royal Mounted fiIms. ln 1942, NewilI and O'Brien re-teamed in the first of the fifteen popuIar Texas Ranger films. - Ed Hulse |
