She has not ceased to love her husband because she has not yet begun to love him. His tenderness and courtesy antagonize her. One day, in his absence, a stranger approaches the house and asks for food. He is a fugitive, innocent, he protests, of the crime with which he is charged. She believes his protestations and aids him, at the risk of discovery when her husband returns unexpectedly. The rancher, returning to town, meets two deputies who are searching for the fugitive, and he accompanies them. Reaching his home, he tells his surprised wife that he intends to get the reward of one thousand dollars offered for Dandy Dick, who murdered a postmaster. To his astonishment, she clings to him and pleads with him not to risk his life. He does not know what is in her mind, how, within the hour, she has given Dandy Dick a gun and a cartridge belt, and now he will use them against the man she has begun to love. Swiftly she mounts a horse and sets out in pursuit of the outlaw. In the forest she cajoles him, yields to his kisses, so that she may snatch the deadly weapon from his belt. A struggle ensues, a shot is fired, and the riders, galloping up, finds her in danger. The desperado is overpowered, and the wife, with a sigh of thankfulness, falls into her husband's arms.
