He is peremptorily discharged by the foreman of the factory where he works. Bob's father is the editor of the local paper and publishes an article attacking gambler Bill Rank and his followers, who swear vengeance against the editor. Molly has saved up $500 for a college course. Bob comes home intoxicated one evening and his father sternly orders him out of the house. Rank and his gang plan to strike at the editor by ruining his son. They find him drinking hard, inveigle him into a card game, and after fleecing him of every cent, induce him to draw a worthless check for $500 on the San Antonio Bank. In the morning, he is informed Rank has already started with the check for San Antonio. Knowing his forgery will soon be discovered, he rushes home and tries to make away with himself, but Molly stops him. She listens to his story and determines to sacrifice her own ambitions. Taking her savings, she jumps on a horse and rides like mad to reach the bank before its opening. After a terrific ride, she gets there in time to prevent Rank's plan and returns home in triumph. She then gets her brother's job back for him and feels amply rewarded when Bob convinces her he will "make good." Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
