Before starting on his mission Bud, ever quarrelsome, has a fistic encounter with a half-breed Mexican, incurring his lasting hatred, and with the persistency of his race he follows Bud, intent upon revenge. To fulfill his agreement, Bud resolves to apply for work at the ranch, and in order to conceal his identity he shaves off his mustache, which alters his personal appearance. Continuing on his way he encounters a young girl who had been thrown from her horse and was suffering from a sprained ankle. He assists her to mount a resumes his journey. Arrived at the ranch he is immediately employed by Ches Riley to assist at the spring roundup, and discovers that the girl he had assisted in the daughter of the man he had agreed to kill. In the meantime the half-breed, nursing his wrath, had patiently waited his chance to kill Nevins. The opportunity came on the morning of the roundup, and also Nevins' chance to fulfill his agreement; but Bud Nevins had learned to love Ches Riley's daughter, and he found, when his opportunity came, he had not the heart to kill the father of the woman he loved. In his eagerness to destroy his enemy, the half-breed's aim was faulty and the bullet intended for Bud Nevins injures Ches Riley. Bud immediately retaliates, but misses the half-breed, who, on his second shot, seriously injures Bud, who falls form his horse to the ground. The cowboys hear the fusillade of shots and start rapidly to the scene of action, as does also Ches Riley's daughter, who is out on her pony to watch the roundup. Mr. Riley has recovered sufficiently to explain to the cowboys who immediately start in pursuit of the half-breed, while the daughter rushes to the unconscious Nevius, who is tenderly lifted and conveyed to the ranch house, to be nursed with loving care, for she has learned to love him. The cowboys capture the half-breed and justice is meted out to him in the stern court of Judge Lynch. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
