It results in the discharge of both Charlie and his brother Steve. Unable to secure other employment, Charlie goes west where he makes a big strike on Bear Mountain. On his way back to camp, the young man falls off a cliff. When found by Wayne, an old prospector, his injuries have caused Charlie to lose all recollection of the past. A thief who has stolen Charlie's wallet, is killed by miners. Papers contained in the wallet lead the men to believe their victim Charlie. They wire word of his death to Edith. Benton, in the meantime, has ingratiated himself into the favor of Edith and Steve, by pretending remorse for his conduct. The man urges Edith to marry him. Unable to resist his pleas, and believing Charlie dead, Edith finally consents. A month before the wedding, Steve goes west to seek his fortune. Fate leads him to rescue Delia, Wayne's daughter, when the girl is threatened with death in a forest fire. Steve accompanies Delia to her father's cabin where he is astounded to find his brother. Sight of Steve causes Charlie to recall the past. He learns of Edith's approaching marriage. With the ceremony but twenty-four hours away, the brothers make a wild dash over the hills, arriving at a telegraph office three hours before the wedding is to take place. The minister is uttering the words of the ceremony in the Barry home when a messenger enters. The telegram informs Benton that all his plotting has gone for naught.
