The two become fast friends, and one day while Kelly is rounding up some cattle he falls over a cliff and Gertrude lassos him and pulls him out of danger. In the danger to the man she forgets herself for a moment and kisses him, and Kelly confesses his love for her. They become engaged and Kelly is very happy. Vacation days are over and Gertrude goes back to college. Here she meets a dashing youth who makes ardent love to her and turns her head. She writes to Kelly that she does not love him and cannot marry him. Kelly is plunged in grief. Six months later Gertrude is returning home in the stagecoach when it is attacked by bandits. Kelly and his pal see the attack in the distance and quickly evolve a plan of action. Riding quickly to a bend in the road Kelly dismounts and takes a position behind a huge rock. The stagecoach driver has been shot and his limp body is hanging over the seat. As the horses dash by Kelly's pal gallops along and swings himself onto the driver's seat, and drives the coach to the ranch. Kelly holds the bandits back, and a furious battle results. Kelly's pal calls the cowboys, and they ride to the rescue. Gertrude accompanying them in a buckboard. Enraged at being thwarted, the bandits are making every endeavor to shoot Kelly, who dodges behind rocks and hills, determined to sell his life as dearly as possible. His ammunition has become exhausted, and he is engaged in a desperate hand-to-hand fight when the cowboys arrive. The tremendous bravery of Kelly has reawakened Gertrude's love, and it is a very penitent girl who asks the big cowpuncher to please give her back the engagement ring.
