A tense pursuit unfolds as Hank Beyer escapes through Black Man's swamp with Esther Mansley aiding him. Miss Mansley’s letter to Beyer entangles Hank, Esther, and Col. Mansley in a web of deception and shifting loyalties. Cy Walters and Gabe Horner spearhead the mob, while Pete the African keeper misleads pursuit with claims Hank Beyer stays in his cabin. The night ends with Cy confronting Pete over the truth as dawn nears and the siege of Colonel Mansley’s home looms.
