Jerry is much in love with the daughter of a rancher and has a rival for her affections the person of Chuck Farley, who is in reality a member of a notorious band of outlaws and horse thieves. The sheriff of the county has placed a reward on their apprehension and arrest. Chuck becomes jealous of Jerry's standing with the girl and also envies him the beautiful horse, so plots with his outlaw band to waylay Jerry and take him to their mountain camp. Here his faithful steed rescues him by untying his bonds. Jerry rides away, gets the girl and hurries to the sheriff and his posse, whom they lead to the successful capture of the gang. The girl's dream comes true when Jerry is presented with the reward, which he hands to the horse, who, in turn, gives it to the girl. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
