A vivid portrait of life on the frontier. This picture opens with a cowboy's camp. A young girl belonging to the camp is seen going for a pail of water, accompanied by a child. As she leans over the stream to fill her pall, some "bad men" who are riding by grab her, fasten her securely to one of their horses and ride off. The child, however, escapes. The girl is carried off to a deserted cabin and tied to one of the posts which support the veranda, where the men sit drinking and playing cards. Before very long the wine takes effect and soon all but one are down and out. This one then carries off the girl to the house of a nearby dominie and they get spliced. In the meantime the kid has found his way back to the camp and the cowboys are soon on a "gumshoe hunt" for the bad men and follow their track to the deserted cabin, which they thoroughly shoot up, killing the two desperadoes who are left, but finding no trace of the girl and her companion. The two latter have subsequently settled down in their own home, where the cowboys finally discover them by accident, and though a fight threatens, all is amicably settled and great rejoicing ensues.
