She was only a dance pianist, but was beloved by all and even Big Bill, the cruel proprietor of the dance hall, paused for a moment to look upon her face as they carried her out. Jack Keen, the best and squarest gambler in Sunset Pass, closed his game when he heard the strains of "Nearer my God to Thee." The player was little Ruth, the widow's daughter, who wanted to begin where her mother left off. Jack stepped forward to learn who the player was, just as the proprietor was about to eject the little child for playing a hymn in his dance hall, but Jack informed him that Ruth would from that moment be known as his adopted daughter, and demands the respect of all who heard him make the announcement. Ruth was only eight years old, when she was started off to school. Ned Burton, the minister's son, was eleven. Both met as they were bundled into the stage, bound for the nearby city of Sacramento. They grew up together and became sweethearts. At last there came a day when Ned asked her for her hand in marriage, and she agreed. After getting "Uncle Jack's" consent they hurried to tell Ned's father, who was the only minister in Sunset Pass. After learning that Ned had the consent of Ruth's foster father, he agreed to marry them, but Ruth had not forgotten the love and kindness bestowed upon her by her "Uncle Jack." At the eleventh hour, she broke away during the ceremony and hurried back to the one whom she really loved and trusted more than anyone else in the world.
