Synopsis
The Lefferts-Longstreet feud is renewed when young Harney Lefferts is shot accidentally by Lem Beeman, telegraph operator and suitor of Elsie Lefferts. Evidence points to Lee Longstreet, Elsie's true love, and Beeman does not confess until Lee is tried, convicted, and sentenced to die. Then, in a heroic act, Beeman telegraphs his confession to the prison, thereby halting the execution. He saves Lee but loses his own life when he goes out in a storm to repair damaged lines. The feud is ended, and Lee marries Elsie.
