The hotel-keeper. Dan, and his daughter, Annie, send for the doctor and nurse him, and it is not until a few weeks later that Dan, who is running for sheriff, reads in a newspaper the following article that he realizes Dick is the outlaw, "Dick Hisley Escapes. It is reported that Dick Hisley, who was severely wounded after a desperate fight with the sheriff's posse in Jackson County, made his escape and is now hiding in the hills of Bear County." Dan is elected sheriff and goes to take his oath of office. In the meanwhile, Annie finds the paper, and also realizes that Dick is the outlaw. He confesses to her, but she resolves to give him another chance. She gives him a horse and sends him on his way. Her father returns and finds Dick gone. He calls his posse and starts in pursuit. In the meanwhile Dick has located his followers, but before they can get away, the new sheriff and his men are almost upon them. A chase follows. Dick rides off to one side. Dan sees this and follows, dismounts and fires. He severely wounds Dick, who returns fire and wounds the sheriff, but as soon as he sees the sheriff fall and recognizes him, the outlaw comes to his aid. Dick takes the sheriff back to the hotel, where he revives. At the sheriff's command, he handcuffs himself, but ere they can lend him away with his followers, whom they have captured, he dies.
