One night John returns home quite intoxicated and, as a result of the quarrel which ensues, he leaves home, notwithstanding the pleading of his sister. Mary. The sheriff is heartbroken the next morning when he learns that his son had left, and he and Mary anxiously await news from him. John obtains a position on a ranch and does good work, but when the season closes he is "laid off." He starts in drinking and gambling again. Losing all his money to a card shark, he accuses him of cheating, and shoots at him. John believes that he has killed the gambler, hurries away, and sends to Mary for money with which to escape across the border. She takes the money from the sheriff's strongbox and gives it to her brother. He is stealing a ride on the stagecoach when it is held up and John, wounded, is relieved of the money, but not before he has wounded the bandit, who later dies. The sheriff and a posse are looking for the man who stole the money and are notified of the hold-up. They find John, take him home, and also the dead bandit. The sheriff recovers the money without knowing that his son was the instigator of the theft. A telegram tells Mary and John that the gambler, whom John thought he had killed, was only slightly wounded. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
