He and the dead foreman have been courting Elsie Brandon, and this with other details when made known by Searchlight Wilson, a two-gun man, results in Dan's arrest. In the sheriff's absence, Wilson tries to have Dan lynched. Their plans are overheard by Wildcat Thompson, a reckless and well-liked cowboy, by his pal, Pablo Wiggins, a Mexican snake-charmer, and "Foamy White." While White is talking at the jail, Searchlight's crowd make him prisoner and proceed to string him up in the shadow of the courthouse. Meanwhile from the roof of the courthouse Wildcat and Pablo throw down the latter's trained snakes, which breaks up the lynching bee. "Foamy," now free, rides for help and comes back with twenty men. They find the courthouse blown up and learn that Dan has been rescued by Wildcat. Shortly afterward the sheriff arrives and Wildcat is arrested for aiding Dan to escape. The fearless young cowboy forces a hearing and it is shown that the dead foreman had quarreled with an Arizona cowboy over Elsie Brandon. At the time of his death he was shown to have been riding to notify the sheriff of some rustling which had taken place and had in his possession the guilty man's name. Five of the cowboys write down the name of the man they believe to be guilty of the rustling. The judge calls the slips in and on all the name of Searchlight Wilson appears. In the melee which follows, Searchlight escapes and Wildcat goes after the two-gun man with a warrant for his arrest. They come upon each other and a hot pistol fight follows. One of Wildcat's shots takes effect and the young fellow brings back to the sheriff the body of the foreman of "T Tumble T" Ranch. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
