All of his troopers have failed to get the man. They have returned more dead than alive, to admit defeat. Only one uncrippled man is left - and he is Monty, the rookie recruit. The Sergeant sends for Monty and tells him to get Black Joe after showing him a picture of the desperado. Monty is struck with the resemblance between the two men, and the Sergeant tells him that Black Joe is his half-brother. Monty swears to get the bad man and sets out on the trail. He goes to a mountain cabin where he sees a man who answers Black Joe's description and after a desperate fight, overpowers him - only to discover that it is the sergeant that he has captured and who is hunting the desperado on his own. The chase next leads to the trappers general store where the desperado and his gang are making merry. Monty arrives, looks them over, and in striving to keep from making the same mistake twice, thinks the bad man is his sergeant. He even goes as far as to suggest to the bad man a way of capturing Black Joe. Then the sergeant enters, and they make him prisoner. Too late, Monty discovers his blunder and that he has helped Black Joe capture his own officer. The next time he makes more sure and succeeds in identifying his man by a skull and crossbones tattooed on his chest. He tries to make him prisoner but the desperado kicks him out. Again Monty attempts to capture the desperado, and between mistaking the sergeant for the bad man and Black Joe for the sergeant, he has a terrible time. At last, he gets his man out into open. After a daring ride, he ropes the bad man and drags him back to the camp. There he is made a hero and married to Estelle. Written by Press Sheet from Library of Congress See less
