They select a spot for camp, unhitch their horses and start supper. While John is gone for game, the horses get away and Mary is forced to run after them, but before she comes up to them, both horses have been captured by three gold-seekers, Sid, Bill and a Mexican, and as their burro has just died, the men are delighted to get the horses. As soon as Mary appears and claims them, Sid is only too willing to return her property, not so Bill and the Mexican, however, and in consequence, Sid and Bill retire a short distance to fight it out. Sid is victorious, without having done more than give Bill a slight wound, so sending the Mexican to look after his partner, Sid accompanies Mary on her way toward their camp. John returns in the meanwhile, misses his wife and the horses and at once sets out on their trail, overtaking Mary and Sid just as the young wife's strength has about given out. As a reward for Sid's kindness, John insists upon the other accepting his saddle horse and as soon as Sid rides away, the husband and wife prepare to camp there for the night. Bill and the Mexican are in the meanwhile on the trail of Sid, so creeping up to where John and Mary have camped for the night. Bill is about to plunge his hunting-knife into the sleeping husband, believing him to be Sid, when his hand is stayed by Sid himself, who, having passed his partner and the Mexican creeping toward the camp and fearing for the lives of Mary and John, returned in time to prevent the tragedy.
