Nobody knew how old Jim and his younger partner Bob made their living, although there was much talk of smuggling. Things moved easily in the little cabin by the sea until Bob began to cast amorous eyes toward pretty Mabel. Then trouble came, for Mabel detested Bob with all her heart. One day a party of cowboys gamboled down to the ocean-side. They spent the day in playing along the shore and compelling their horses to swim through the heavy surf. Mabel watched them. Boss cowboy Ralph Hapwood met her and love sprang up between them instantly and grew apace in the frequent trips that followed. Bob noticed it and resented the handsome stranger's coming deeply. He told Mabel's father that the cowboy was a secret-service man ready to nab them. So old man Struthers prepared to kill Ralph. This he found hard to do for in spite of himself he liked the ranchman's face and clear blue eyes. One day Ralph found the cache in which much contraband goods were stored. He went promptly to Struthers and while talking with him in the doorway, did not see the ready aim of Bob's revolver from behind the corner of the building. Neither did Bob see the cowboy, off at a distance, suddenly drop his cigarette draw his gun and fire. The result was a sudden yell from Bob and much happiness among the occupants of the little cabin by the sea. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
