Bill, who is a fellow of no small caliber, is looked upon by his companions as a sort of leader, feels a little miffed, but acknowledges she is the real goods and has some occasion to feel proud of herself; at the same time he won't stand for her snubs. The punchers await developments and make up their mind what can't be cured must be endured. The Captain, a classy chap, from a neighboring ranch, puts in his appearance, and asks Mary to go riding with him. She agrees, and they start on a wild ride across the country. Some distance from habitation, they are attacked by Indians. The Captain and Mary stand them off for a long time. The Captain takes Mary's skirt, hat and coat, makes a dummy of them, fastens it on her horse's back, and starts the animal on a run. The trick works and the Indians start in pursuit. The Captain goes for help, but the cow punchers, led by Bill, see the Indians, get after them, and soon capture the band. They recover Mary's clothing, and go in search for her. They find her behind a hill, and, after a little communication back and forth, she gets her skirt and comes over to the punchers with outstretched hands, and thanks them with apologies for her coldness to them. She warmly and admiringly looks into Bill's honest face and tells him he is her hero and a man after her own heart. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
