In colonial Australia, James Morrison is a young teamster who has two friends, Long and Short.

James is attracted to Biddy and promises to marry her. James returns to Bathurst to break the news to Jane, but his mother dies and makes James promise to marry her daughter. He feels obliged to honour his old commitment to Jane.
