Rancher Jack Gardner (Tom Tyler) is ambushed and awakens in a hospital and finds that his ranch has been illegally sold out from under him to an old lady (Emma Tansey as Mrs. B. Tanzey) and her niece Peggy (Charlotte Wynn.) Believing the new owner to be a man, because she is named Pat, Jack threatens many things, but when he meets "the nice old lady" and realizes she too is a victim, he takes another path to right both wrongs. Meanwhile, the swindler (J.P.McGowan, who also directed) has snooped around and discovered ore on the Gardner ranch, and is now trying to buy back what wasn't his to begin with.
