Without food or money, Saunders takes to the road to rob the Overland stage. Sheriff O'Neil and his young daughter Nan, living in the same territory, are suddenly summoned by the frantic passengers of the Overland stage, who inform Sheriff O'Neil of a holdup that has just taken place. The sheriff takes to the road to search for the outlaw. Returning to his cabin, Saunders buries the bullion and mask under the blankets of his bunk and takes to the wilds, stopping at a water hole to satisfy his thirsty horse. Looking back along the creek bed, he sees the graceful form of the Sheriff's daughter. They meet and fall in love. Sheriff O'Neil in search of the outlaw, is shot. The outlaw returns meanwhile to his cabin. Nan is told by a passing range rider of her father's death, and over his dead body she swears vengeance on the murderer. A wedding is planned between the outlaw and Nan, and for the first time the Sheriff's daughter enters the cabin of the outlaw and sees Saunders' motherless child. Saunders' baby daughter brings from their hiding place the bags of gold dust and her father's holdup mask, and places them in the Sheriff's daughter's lap. Nan then realizes that she is about to marry her father's murderer. Taking the outlaw's rifle, she levels it upon the door of the cabin through which the outlaw enters and there, face to face, accuses her husband of murdering her father. Saunders confesses, with the barrel of the rifle pressed against his breast, but, suddenly detracting Nan's attention, grabs the gun as she fires. The bullet enters the logs of the cabin. With a desperate laugh and dare devil manner, the outlaw makes his getaway. Rushing to his horse, saddled and bridled, he is in the act of mounting, when the door of his cabin opens. Levelling her rifle, Nan fires and her father's murderer falls dead from his horse. Thereafter Nan devotes her life to bringing u the outlaw's motherless child.
