Synopsis
Betty Hammond, who has just inherited a great deal of money from her father, decides to share her riches with the husband of her choice, but her search produces only fortune hunters. Fondly remembering her childhood sweetheart, James Ogden, Betty travels to California, where Jim has become the superintendent of her mining properties. Betty tries to conceal her identity while working as Jim's stenographer, but he discovers who she is and discharges her. Next, she proposes to him outright, but when she admits that she does not yet love him, he refuses. Consequently, the frustrated heiress hires several men to abduct Jim and Parson Brown to a lonely cabin, but this, too, proves fruitless until lumberman Bigfoot Ben kidnaps Betty. Jim rescues her, and although he learns that she hired Ben to play the villain, he admits that he loves her and proposes.
