Synopsis

"The Black, by right of might, is undisputed leader of a band of wild horses. By his intelligence and agility he protects the herd and eludes various pursuers. The Fielding ranch is in [the] charge of a villainous foreman who has involved Fielding's weakling son in a cattle stealing escapade. Billy Blair, a cowpuncher, has two consuming passions. One is his love for Mary Fielding, the other his desire to capture The Black. His perseverance is rewarded, for he wins both girl and horse. All three co-operate in frustrating further villainy on the part of Galvin, the foreman, and in bringing him to justice." (from ETR Apr 1924, p25.) Billy makes friends with The Black by rescuing him from a forest fire.
