He has just had a stroke and medicine is needed immediately. Bob and Dick, impressed with her beauty and kindliness, sympathize with her, and both desire to do the favor. They race to the village and Dick returns first with the medicine; but it is too late, the father is dead, and his dying request was that the boys should look after his daughter and some day take her to her native home, Colorado. There follows a campaign for Lula's love in which Dick is successful, but in winning it he loses Bob's friendship. The two men part, each taking a Mexican coin peculiarly marked as a reminder of their trip. Dick is successful, and, carrying out the wish of Lula's father, establishes a home in Colorado. Years later Bob travels to Colorado on a hunting trip and becomes involves with some bandits, who steal his clothes. One of the bandits, donning Bob's clothes, gets in a poker game, and, when all his money is gone, slaps the Mexican coin on the table, saying it is his last dollar, and that when it is gone he is going to meet a woman. Dick is in the game and he knows only one woman who has a coin like that, his wife. With revolver pointed he commands the bandit to lead the way to his home, where he accuses his wife. Just then Bob appears. He has saved and won the beautiful girl whom the bandit was going to marry by arrangement with her drunken father. Dick realizes his mistake and the two men become pals again and resume partnership. Later, Young is offered the place of warden. He asks Bess if she will be his assistant for life.
