Mitchell Lewis plays Elam Harnlsh. I known in the Yukon as "Burning Daylight." with a wide sweep of forceful characterization. Helen Ferguson apT.pears as Dora, the straightforward iit!'tle heroine who saves "Burning- Day light" from moral deterioration when i he becomes involved with the tricky "..thieves of finance in New York.
