The evil life he leads is not to his liking, and he yearns to become a respectable citizen. When Margie Billings, the sheriff's little daughter, crosses his path, Phil resolves right there and then to cut loose from his companions. At church, the following Sunday, he is recognized by a visiting deputy and promptly taken to jail. Little Margie pleads for him, but to no avail. The outlaws, free from Phil's restraining hand, go on a rampage. They successfully rob the sheriff's home, the mistress being an invalid and alone with Margie. The little girl manages to reach the deputy, who is keeping watch outside of Phil's cell, and apprises him of the robbery. The deputy and other men immediately give chase to the desperadoes. Margie finds her neither in a faint and rushes out in search of aid. Phil comes to her mind, and, with the forgotten jail key, she lets him out. The freed man rides like the wind to the nearest doctor and, on his return to the sheriff's home, is re-captured by the posse who have also caught the fleeing robbers. Thanks to little Margie, the sheriff deals kindly with Phil, who is escorted to the state line and told to ride ahead and ride fast. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
