Shortly after coming to town with his old partner, the young prospector is taunted into playing for high stakes by a gambler. Discovering that he is being cheated, he draws his pistol. His arm is struck up, and by a freak of chance, the bullet, passing through the ceiling, wounds his partner in the room above. Thinking himself a murderer, the prospector flees to the cabin where his young wife awaits him. The gambler, driven out of town, comes to the cabin, recognizes his victim, and, on threat of exposing him, is given shelter. Left alone with the wife, he seizes her when she repulses him. She contrives to signal her husband, who leaps on the gambler and is throttling him when his partner, returning convalescent, interferes. The gambler flees, and happiness reigns in the cabin. |
