No sooner has he gone than "One-shot Bill" rifles up and seeing the two women alone, forces them to give him food and water, after which he sets out for town. Arriving there, he is recognized by the sheriff, but before they can capture him, Bill has made his escape. Fleeing from the posse, Bill remembers the two timid women in the shack where he had demanded food, so hurries there and commands them to hide him. As he hears the husband returning, Bill pushes the wife in the closet in front of him, informing the mother if she values her daughter's life not to reveal his hiding-place. Jim enters, but can get satisfaction from the mother, but looking in the mirror on the opposite wall, he sees Bill as he opens the closet door to threaten her, and realizes his wife's danger should he make a false move. As he is trying to decide what would he the best to do, he hears the sheriff and his posse approaching. They enter the shack, but Jim is forced to declare he knows nothing of Bill. When the sheriff departs, Jim steps out on the pretext of joining his party, but really to tell of the desperado's hiding-place. Acting upon the sheriff's advice, Jim mounts and rides away with the men, but not so the sheriff and his deputies. They station themselves on either side of the door, so when Bill, believing the coast clear, comes outside, they at once disarm him and lead him away to his just deserts.
