Raised to believe he is the son of a half breed Dave aids Sethman in the struggle against Crawford interests which try to get control of surrounding ranches. After coming West with her father, Crawford, Jean is saved from a runaway by Dave. Later she is saved by Dave when the unprincipled Murdock, Crawford’s agent, attempts to attack her. Sethman, to get even with Crawford, plans to rustle the cattle. In the fight Crawford wounds Sethman, but Dave shoots Crawford in the hand.
