Billy James is Mary's special friend, and goes to bring her from the station, but, suffering snakes! Look what's traveling with her, his nobs, "Sir Percy Granville," who owns the nearby ranch. This gets Bill's goat for a time, but Mary rides and "ropes" with the punchers, and soon shows them she is the same genuine, good-hearted Mary, and doesn't care a whoop for Sir Percy. Sir Percy insists on sticking around, however, and shows his true nature by striking Mary's younger brother, Bobby, when he defends his sister from insult. Billy James is for perforating Percy at once, but Mary is there with the calm good sense, and fixes up a better scheme to get rid of his highness. Mary arranges to elope with Percy, but Bobby, disguised as Mary, really does the stunt. Sir Percy swallows hook and all, and after a desperate ride to escape the pursuers, he reaches the preacher's house, only to find his intended bride just married to Billy James, and that the lady at his side is Bobby, the kid brother. He is about to strike Bobby again, but Bobby has the 48 caliber drop on him, and makes him march out of the gate through a double line of punchers, each of whom contributes a whole-soled kick to help him along to the tall grass.
