All the men in the saloon pitch into Jake and he is getting badly beaten up when a stranger enters, routs the crowd, knocks out the two bad men and rescues Jake. Pasquale, resenting the stranger's interference, draws his gun to shoot him. The Man From Nowhere catches him, however, and the saloon keeper is obliged to pretend that he has taken the gun from one of the others, thus saving the stranger's life. The newcomer thanks Pasquale and tells him that he will go through hell for him. The saloon keeper, seeing in this man a dangerous rival for the love of Emma, pretends to send him after some horse thieves. The Man From Nowhere, however, has begun to distrust the Mexican and insists upon his accompanying him into the desert. While his companion sleeps, Pasquale hides the water bags in the sand, and lets the horses loose. The stranger, realizing that both of them cannot get back alive, gives up his chance because of the debt he believes he owes Pasquale. But the Mexican fails to find his cache, and in drinking from a poisoned spring, gets his death. The stranger discovers the half-buried water bags and arrives at Snake River City. There he learns from the sheriff the real character of Pasquale and the story of his end. He wins Emma for his wife. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
