One day he sees Spanish Dan ill-treating his wife Kate and interferes in her behalf. Dan at once draws a gun on him and Kennedy falls to the ground severely wounded. The gunman is obliged to flee for his life. The boys carry Kennedy home and send for a doctor. While they await his arrival, Kate enters the house and announces her intention to look after the sick man while he recovers. The man has been severely wounded and it is a long time before he is able to go out again. When he is better he asks Kate to stay and keep house for him, as news has arrived that her husband has been killed in Mexico and she no longer has a home waiting. After a time, Jim is able to go prospecting again, but he has a run of bad luck and cannot find even a small quantity of gold. The luck runs just the other way with some of the other men, who strike a regular Klondike and bring some large nuggets back to the camp. Kennedy is such a popular fellow that they ask him to go along with them and share in their good fortune, an offer that they would not have made to any other man in the place. Kennedy goes home and commences to get ready his bit for the trip. While he is packing he finds some baby clothes that Kate has carelessly left in the cupboard, and at once he's filled with pity for the poor woman: now that her husband is dead, how will she support her little one? He feels that he owes his life to her careful nursing and, in gratitude for what she has done for him, he decides to marry her and bring up the child as his own. He gives up the idea of going out with the gold-diggers and rides off to fetch the parson instead, with whom he shortly returns. They are quickly united in holy wedlock, the woman being overjoyed at the prospect of a bright future with the man she has come to love. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
