She has two admirers, Jed, the deputy sheriff, and Lem, a barber by trade, but a gambler and ruffian as well. One day Lem after losing heavily decides that he must take some radical step to recoup his failing fortune. Crazed with drink, he goes to Jens' cabin and tries to force his attentions on her. As they are struggling Jeff comes along and gives Lem a thrashing. Lem leaves, vowing vengeance. After he has gone Jeff tells Jane of his love and she confesses to be in love with him. Right then and there they become engaged and Jeff promises to return that night to see her. Lem decides to kill two birds with one stone by robbing the stage and making it appear as if Jeff had done the job. That night he and his pal attack Jeff as he is leaving Jane's house and steal his clothing while he is unconscious. They then rob the stage and drop Jeff's hat where they know it will be found. The next morning the sheriff starts out to look for Jeff, as everyone thinks that he is the guilty man. The stage driver finds him as he is groggily walking up the road, and taking him home, tells Jane to keep him there until he can get the sheriff. Jane believes Jeff when he says he is innocent and lets him go. She has a suspicion that Lem is the one who committed the crime, so she goes to his cabin to investigate. Through the window she sees the two men hiding the stolen money. Jane jumps on her horse and gallops for the sheriff. But when the sheriff and his men arrive they find nothing but death in the little cabin. The thieves have quarreled over the division of the spoils and both of them lie on the floor mortally wounded. Jane then goes to where Jeff is waiting for her and the two are happily united. Jeff's name is cleared of all blame in connection with the crime and he and Jane are married.
