Synopsis
On the night before a cowboy and his two friends arrive home with a herd of cattle, one of the friends double-crosses the others and aids a gang of cattle rustlers. He changes his mind at the last minute, but is killed in the confusion. Believing that he is responsible for his friend's death, the cowboy and his other friend get a job on a ranch that happens to be owned by the dead man's father. The cowboy falls in love with the dead man's sister, but they separate after a misunderstanding. Finally, the rustlers appear at the ranch, and after they are overcome, the cowboy and the sister are reconciled.
