As Madge draws near a creek she is overtaken by Pecos Pete, an old-time bandit. She is struggling with him as a strange man rescues her. Madge rides after her father and Larry and overtakes them in the town of Malani. Madge's father is able to place the rescuer of his daughter as Montana Jack Logan, an old-time bandit and one of the squarest outlaws. Unafraid, Madge rides off alone to continue the hunt for the straying colt. Logan and Pete hold a conference at the canyon mouth. Logan provides Pete with a list of names of "all the boys" and orders him to see that no others get by him. There is mysterious business afoot. Madge finally overtakes the colt. At this moment she hears a rifle shot and through her field glasses is able to make out that Pete has shot one of her father's steers and is now skinning it. With him is the half-breed. Hurrying forward Madge hides in the underbrush and sees Logan's anger when he finds that Pete has killed one of King's steers. Rough looking men, each with a sack of provisions, are arriving every minute. From her place of concealment Madge cannot make out what it is all about, but as the last of them rides off she follows. Meantime the advance guard has captured King and Larry and tied them up in Malani, the deserted town. Madge is also captured and taken before Montana Jack. He orders her not to go near the jail. That is the first thing she does and she manages to drop her pocket knife down the chimney so that Larry can pick it up with his feet. In a few minutes the men are free, but Peter has given the alarm and the three outsiders are again brought before Logan for judgment. Madge slaps Pete's face and tells of his killing her father's steer. Logan favors turning the Kings loose, but Pete objects. The outlaws take sides and demand action. While some hold the arms of King and Larry, Madge and Pete fight. The sheriff's posse, summoned by the half-breed, comes into town. Madge pleads with the sheriff to let the bandits proceed across the border to establish their own republic, where they hope to live the rest of their days in peace. He yields and the cavalcade, in reality the lost legion of the border, passes forever out of Uncle Sam's dominions. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
