Plot

As described in a film magazine review,[4] Sybil Estabrook, a young Eastern woman visits the ranch where her brother Oscar has been sent to make a man of himself. The brother has gotten himself in the clutches of a gambler who forces him to violate the law in order to pay off his poker debts. Hal, a young man, befriends Sybil and wins her gratitude and saves the brother from disgrace. The gambler is captured and then falls under some sliding boulders and is killed.
