Sydney Ayers finds a baby the sole survivor of a massacre. He raises her until she is three, when he takes a nap and she wanders into the wagon of Dick LaReno. Fifteen years later, La Reno loses her to Duane Wagar in a poker game. Ayers shows up, his hair whitened over the years by flour. He puts up $2000 against the girl and Wagar's table stakes. Can he win her? And if he does, will he keep her?
Edison's western United turned out some rough scripts, and this one probably had 'em snickering as they left the theater. In addition, the story is told rather telegrphically, with the conclusion not set up in any way.
It didn't matter at the time. People loved westerns, no matter how bad they were in this period.
