On one of his trips, the stage driver is entrusted with $5,000 in gold, which he is to deliver to the post office in the next town. Two wily Mexicans overhear the conversation between the stage driver and the sheriff concerning the money. They decide to hold up the stage that night. Ruth kisses her old father good-bye, little dreaming that it is for the last time. The stage is held up by the two Mexicans. The old man fights for his life and his charge.
