The story features the renowned detective Nick Carter as he investigates a complex case involving the suspicious death of a clergyman, Reverend Elijah Judson, amid allegations of swindling related to oil land dealings. At the start of the story, tensions arise as Mr. Judson is confronted by an angry farmer, Hank Low, who believes he has been cheated in a land deal involving land that Judson endorsed as part of an oil company venture. Following a heated exchange, Mr. Judson later falls to his death from a hotel window, leading to speculation regarding foul play.
