Groggy from a near-drowning, King neglects to search the bodies of two killers before taking them to the morgue. The morgue attendant, R. I. Peace, finds money belts full of cash on the bodies, and takes the money and runs. Sick with fever, King follows Peace, who takes advantage of King's weakened condition to take King's Mountie uniform and frame him in the killing of three miners for their gold.
