Richard then goes west in an effort to prove himself a man and becomes a highwayman known as "The Meddler," robbing people only to return to them all that he stole, keeping only a valueless memento for himself. He meets and falls in love with Gloria Canfield when he robs the stage on which she is riding, and later he rescues her from bandits, winning her love and the forgiveness of her brother, Jesse. Dot marries a retired Army officer, and Richard, having proved himself an honest man, makes plans to stay in the West with Gloria. Written by AFI See less
