Synopsis

Threatened with financial ruin by the growing numbers of homesteaders who fence in the range for farmland, John Brent and his son, Hugh, go east to seek monetary aid. They fail, and upon their return, the ranchers decide to make one last, great cattledrive to Mexico and reestablish themselves there. The move begins, and a stampede wipes out the homestead of Henry Crawley and his children (one of whom, Ellen, Hugh Brent met on the train from the East). Hugh persuades the cattlemen to admit the Crawleys, and Ellen gradually wins their friendship with her helpfulness. After many hardships, the drive reaches Mexico, the ranchers take up a collection for the Crawleys, and Hugh promises to marry Ellen.
