Buddy West (Buddy Roosevelt) inherits a ranch but a clause in the will provides the ranch shall go to the foreman, Pete Hall (William Lowery), if Buddy is found incompetent, which leads to foul play by Hall. Buddy escapes from an asylum where he has been sent and returns to vindicate himself and free his uncle's daughter, Dorothy Parker (Violet La Plante), who is being held prisoner by Hall and his henchmen. Buddy wins out and also wins the hand of Dorothy.—Les Adams <longhorn1939@suddenlink.net>
Buddy West inherits a ranch from his uncle, but a clause in the will stipulates that the property shall go to the foreman, Pete Hall, if Buddy should be found incompetent. The foreman has him captured and put in an asylum, but he escapes and returns to outwit his enemies, rescue his uncle's daughter from the foreman, and gain clear title to the ranch.—AFI
