Finally, however, he is discovered to be the legal heir to Glenmore Castle and also the guardian of Lady Eleanor and Lady Jane. He is requested to return to England and take possession of his inheritance. We then see the western atmosphere brought into the English home and are shown the meeting of Buckskin Jack with his two young wards. He does not fit well into the atmosphere of the monocle and the tea cup, but nevertheless his manhood comes to the surface when he realizes that Lady Jane is about to marry a society man whose appearance does not please him. He proceeds at once to investigate the man's character. In a strong dramatic scene, the Earl discovers Lady Jane's suitor cheating at cards and in cowboy fashion informs the gentleman that that isn't the way cards are played out west. The Englishman determines to get the best of the westerner, and arranges an elopement with Lady Jane. Their plans are learned by Jack, who quietly steps in at the appointed time and commands the girl to go back into the house. This little episode naturally puts him in bad favor with Lady Jane, but yet there is something about his manly ways, his free, careless manner that wins the heart of Lady Eleanor, and when her younger sister, Lady Jane, upbraids the cowboy for his manners, Lady Eleanor's heart goes out to him and she realizes that this big, strong western man is being wrongfully humiliated. Buckskin Jack steals away from the castle, realizing that he is not fit to associate with society, and plans to go back to America to the wild, free life of a cowboy. Lady Eleanor, however, changes his mind, and at the close of the picture he realize that love will teach him his faults and that the manhood of the western cowboy will win the love of the lady.
