This stirs up a feud among the neighboring cattlemen, who refuse to have anything further to do with the pair. Ben and his wife, however, have no concern over this and they live happily on their lonely ranch for the next ten years. During this time their boy has grown up to be quite a lad, but his grandfather has never seen him. Virginia is taken ill and pleads with Ben to go to her parent and ask him to come to see them. He starts out, and along the way encounters a drunken Mexican beating his wife. Ben jumps from his horse, soundly trounces the Mexican, and takes the poor wife back with him to his home to take care of Virginia while he is away. He finds the ranchman still unrelenting and returns alone. In the interim, the Mexican, who has trailed his wife to Ben's ranch, endeavors to break in and take her with him against her wishes. Ben arrives just in time to prevent his carrying out this purpose and drives him away. The Mexican retaliates by returning a little later and stealing a horse. The nine-year-old boy, Roy, sees him, and mounting his own pony, gives chase. The Mexican, arriving at his cabin first, tidies it up, makes it attractive, and meeting the boy at the door, invites him in. The youth is disarmed and enters. Then the Mexican, after gaining the boy's confidence, starts out for a pail of water, but instead mounts and rides off with both horses. Roy becomes accidentally caught in a wolf trap in the cabin, and in his struggle to free himself knocks over a small stove. The cabin is soon in flames. The boy's grandfather sees the distant smoke, and with some of his cowboys rides over to investigate the cause. Arriving on the scene, and hearing the boy's cries, he rushes in and drags him out just as the cabin collapses. When the boy recovers under the kindly ministrations of the old ranchman, he reveals his identity and the grandfather finds that he has rescued his own grandson. He then goes hack home with him and the family are happily reunited after years. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
