Harry (one goat), is in love with Rena, but she won’t let him butt in, though pa and ma favor the match. She is partial to Russ (another goat). A reward is out for the capture of a certain notorious rascal and Harry decides to make use of the fact. He bribes a village loafer to assume the garb of a desperado and hold up Russ and Rena while they are out buggy riding. He then comes along, saves the girl and puts Russ’s cowardice to shame. Later Russ learns that he was the goat and decides to turn the tables. The village has heard of Harry’s trick on Russ and scare Russ by holding him up, posing as a bunch of masked bandits. Then when Harry is sufficiently frightened, Russ makes goats of the whole bunch by coming on the scene disguised and waving a revolver. All think he is the real highwayman and run for all they’re worth. But he whispers a word to Rena, who remains behind, and all ends in a happy lover’s kiss.
