Plot

As described in a review in a film magazine,[3] Bert Granger (Fenton) gambles, drinks and runs a saloon in which his two children, Benny (Fox) and Alice (Rayford), are the entertainers. The Stranger (Mower) comes along, stops a drinking bout, gets into a fight and is victorious. After that he and Alice become interested in one another. Bert loses his property to card sharps. Young Benny sees a big reward for the arrest of “Wolf MacLean” and, as the Stranger tallies with the description, he arrests him. The old man reforms and makes Benny a partner in a new grocery business. Benny aids the Stranger to escape. The Stranger is just about to be hanged by the card sharks when Parson Williams (Hallett) makes known that he is the criminal and that the sharks are his confederates.
