One was a clear-cut, intelligent young cowboy, energetic and ambitious; the other, capable in his way, but sullen and revengeful. The girl liked the first of the two, and as her father was quite content with her choice, the course of true love seemed to be running smoothly. On one occasion, while the girl and her father, escorted by the two cowboys, were off on a business trip, they camped on the summit of a mountain. The girl was standing at the edge of a cliff. Her bracelet fell off, and as all supposed, rolled thousands of feet into the chasm below. She agreed with her father, however, that search for the jewel would he useless. The favored cowboy planned a surprise, however. Part way down the cliff a ledge of rock jutted out, and he figured that perhaps the bracelet was lodged there. One day when work permitted, he rode away from the ranch and halted at the cliff. He tied a rope to a tree, lowered himself down to the ledge, and there made diligent search, being finally rewarded by finding the bracelet. Unfortunately for him, his rival had noticed his departure from the ranch, and followed him. In jealous rage the vengeful cowboy pulled up the rope, leaving his rival to die of exposure and starvation. When her sweetheart failed to return to the ranch that night, the girl was worried, and intuitively suspected that the rejected suitor was to blame for the strange disappearance. The next morning she saw him ride away and followed. He went to the edge of the cliff to hurl taunts at his helpless victim, and then rode away. The girl, who had been in concealment, emerged after he had departed, and single-handed rescued her sweetheart, who was unconscious and near death. When he had been revived he returned to the ranch, there to confront his enemy, who at first believed him a ghost, but realized, when the hand of the law fell upon him, that his plot had failed through the girl's devotion to the man she loved.
