However, her fate, in the shape of a cowboy, sees the runaway, and after a hard ride stops the horse, and volunteers to drive Kay home. Upon reaching the ranch, Kay explains the circumstances to her father, who, in deep gratitude, thanks the cowboy. A few months hence when the father sees them together on the porch, and learns that they love each other, he becomes angry, refuses his consent to a wedding, and takes his daughter into the house. The persistent lover next plans for an elopement, and when Kay consents to the arrangement, he steals up to the ranch with an extra horse for his sweetheart. She makes her escape from her home through the window, and off they ride. The Chinese servant, however, sees them go and informs the father. The irate parent decides to follow after, and rousing his cowboys, all start in pursuit. Meantime Kay and her lover are riding as hard as they can to reach the office of the Justice of Peace. The father, with his followers, is on their trail, the former smileless, the others jovial. Kay and her companion rouse the Justice and are being pronounced man and wife, when the father enters. He is obliged to forgive and bless the couple, who receive hearty cheers from the other boys. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
