Fowler has a pretty daughter, Vedah, who teaches the district school. Pasquale meets the girl on several occasions and falls in love with her. She repulses his attentions and tries to show him his error in loving her, but Pasquale is determined and, one day, rides to the schoolhouse after the children are dismissed. Finding Vedah alone he again renews his attentions and is on the point of taking her in his arms when she holds aloft a crucifix and, terror-stricken, Pasquale hurriedly leaves. Vedah returns to the ranch-house and her father, noticing her agitation, finally learns of Pasquale's intended insult. Furious, old Fowler arouses the cowboys; they capture Pasquale at his shack and are about to string him op when Vedah dashes up, pleads for the Mexican's life and secures his freedom. A few weeks later Vedah attracts the attention of a young easterner who asks her to be his wife. She refuses and, for revenge, he lures her to the shack of Pasquale's companion, who aids him. Here the easterner is about to force her into marriage when Pasquale returns, forces his pal who guards the shack to confess what is going on, then bursts in and drives the easterner from the place with a threat of death, and returns Vedah to her father out of gratitude for her saving his life.
