A letter is received from a rich cousin of the Blackwells, inviting Lucy to pay them a visit in their city home. When Zeb hears of it he is opposed to his sweetheart going, but little attention is paid to him, and Lucy departs. She has a splendid time during the visit and in addition, manages to fall in love with Harold Noyes, a wealthy young artist. She returns to her little country home engaged to Harold. The day after Lucy's return Zeb comes to see her, and learns of her engagement. Zeb declares that if Harold ever comes within reach of him he will kill him. A week later, Harold does come to see his little country lassie and is seen by Zeb, who hastens to the nearby still and tells the illicit operators that a revenue officer has come to the country. Heading the reckless band, Zeb comes upon Harold as he is returning to the hotel where he is stopping, accompanied by Lucy, who has walked part way home with him. Despite Lucy's wild protests, they tie her to a tree and depart with Harold. The whistle of an oncoming train suggests a fiendish means of getting rid of their supposed enemy to the moonshiners. Harold is bound to the railroad track and left to his fate. By a mighty effort Lucy frees herself, and rushing to Harold's rescue, tears him from underneath the wheels of the onrushing monster. At their quiet and simple wedding which follows a week later, there is one uninvited guest, Zeb, who unexpectedly and greatly to his surprise departs from the scene in the hands of a sheriff.
