Jennie, seeing Anderson put a large sum of money in a drawer, cannot resist the temptation and takes part of it. The next day Anderson discovers the theft and at once summons a detective. The detective accuses Bert of stealing the money. Protesting his innocence, he is forced to accompany the detective to his home. Jennie, seeing Bert and the detective entering the house, hides the money under a rug. In enrolling the house the money is found. Bert realizes what his sister has done and to shield her swears that he stole the money. Anderson, satisfied in having his money restored, does not prosecute him. Now that Bert's good name and reputation are gone, he goes west to start life anew, securing work as a cowboy on the ranch of John Loomis, who has a very pretty daughter named Dot. After Bert has been on the ranch for some time, Loomis notices that Bert and Dot are together quite frequently. As he wants another young man, Jack Wilson, to marry her, he forbids Dot to speak to Bert again. Dot then tells her father that she is going to marry the man she loves, and that man is Bert Mathews. Loomis orders her to leave his home forever. Two years roll by, Bert and Dot are happy in their own little home, and a little one has come to bless their happiness. Just when times seem brighter than ever before, a man from Bert's old home comes west, and seeing him upon the street, tells the secret of his past to Jack Wilson, the man whom Dot refused to marry. Wilson goes to Dot and tells her that she has married a thief. Heartbroken, she writes a note, pinning it on the door of the house, telling Bert that she never wants to see him again, as he is a thief. Bert, finding the note, goes in search of Dot, and finds her just as she is about to throw herself and baby over a high cliff. He tells her that he did not steal the money and that if she will go back east with him he can prove his innocence. Reaching home once again, Jennie confesses to Dot and the past is forgotten.
