She works from sun-up till sundown every day except Sunday to eke out an existence for her little family. The Mountain Water Company is building a fence line which brings them through the widow's property. They discover on her land a barn which blocks their line, and unable to convince her that it must be moved, the surveyor sets fire to the building. One of the children, a tot of four years, sees the barn burning, and runs in among the flames and falling timbers "to save the poor horses." She is rescued by the superintendent of the fence gang and restored to her distracted mother. The incident serves to waken the sympathetic interest of the superintendent in Mrs. Kelton and her brood. Eventually the widow and the kindly superintendent marry. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
