Plot

[edit]

As described in a film magazine review,[2] old Mark Ridgeway dies suddenly on his ranch, without having signed a will that provided that his foreman, Tom Taylor, was to inherit the property, which included an irrigation dam. Mark's daughter Marion and her brother Reginald arrive from the east, and they are the new owners of the ranch and dam. Joe Deerfoot, a renegade Indian who wants control of the irrigation dam, uses his gang to trick Marion and Reginald. After many adventures, including fights between Tom and Deerfoot near a cliff and the rescue from drowning of Tom by his steed Silver King, the plotters are defeated by Tom and Marion agrees to become his wife.
