He suspects Jim Blake, ringleader of a lawless faction, of the murder, and does not allow his real identity to be known. Blake takes him to the gang's rendezvous and shows him the coat which belonged to Evans, and tells him he killed him (Evans) alone. Steve knocks him down, and is just about to ride away when the other men come in and after a fight he escapes. He goes to a house for refuge and they follow him there. Steve hides in an alcove when he hears them coming, and they do not find him. One of them tries to take the girl in his arms, but Steve knocks him unconscious. The others, attracted by the noise, come in and see Steve jump from a window on his horse's back. They' follow him. He traps them by fixing his gun and hat to appear as if there was another man there, and lands them all in jail. Steve comes back to the girl and they embrace.
