Never Too Late to Mend

Fond of the whip, the isolation chamber, straight jackets and starvation tactics, Squire Meadows is the sadistic governor of a Victorian prison who relishes making the lives of his prisoners a torturous hell. He's also a dishonorable lecher scheming to marry Susan, a beautiful village girl. She's deeply in love with a poverty-stricken man, who is forced to work in far-away Australia so he can earn enough money to wed her. Meanwhile the evil squire coerces Susan into marrying him.
