He leaves his medical training and fiance'. On the way to the battlefields, our doctor is kidnapped by the Rebels to give medical aid for a young officer. He voluntarily commits to be a caregiver for the officer on the journey deep into Confederate territory. He is given a choice of being interred in prison or work in a field hospital. He chose to serve as a surgeon in a field hospital, He finally wins a release and is taken north in an unconventional transport by a rebel spy who is delivering a corpse to northern relatives. The trip is fraught with dangers. The vehicle contains the gold treasury of the confederacy known only by the spy who is wholly responsible for the gold. The hearse and riders finally arrive back north and the gold is then cleverly hidden by the confederacy somewhere in the area.
