The suspicious actions of a gypsy horse-trader, whom he has seen loitering near his cabin, prompts him to take his gold to the bank, but on the way he is thrown from his horse and suffers fatal injuries. A young man and woman come on the scene and are given the gold, after they promise the dying man to send a portion of it to his wife. Later, the gypsy, learning who got the gold, attacks the mother of the young people and escapes with the treasure. A posse is hurriedly summoned and starts in pursuit and the outlaw, after being wounded and seeing that escape is impossible, throws himself from a high cliff into a mountain torrent.
