Believing he loves another, the woman becomes insanely jealous. The counterfeiter meets Ivy, daughter of the village blacksmith. Jack, employed by Ivy's father, is deeply in love with the girl. The boy perceives that his sweetheart has been fascinated by Bruno. Later, he finds a note dropped by Ivy, in which Bruno requests her to meet him that evening. Crouched in the underbrush that night, Jack sees his sweetheart in Bruno's arms. A rustle in the underbrush attracts Jack's attention, and he comes upon Rosario, who, filled with jealous rage, is watching Bruno. A desire for revenge prompts the woman to inform Jack of the man's counterfeiting activities. The two plan to bring Bruno to justice. Early next morning, the United States marshal appears in the village in response to Jack's telegram. Several detectives come with him. Bruno arrives at the spot where he is to meet Ivy, and is seized by the Government detectives. A member of the counterfeiting gang sees the arrest and hastens to warn the outlaws. When the officials arrive shortly afterwards, they find the counterfeiters prepared. A stirring fight ensues. The gang is finally captured when the detectives storm the building. The scales fall from Ivy's eyes when Bruno's true character is revealed. Filled with joy because of her narrow escape, Ivy begs Jack for forgiveness. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
