This makes the tenth. $1,000 reward for the capture of the thieves." This was the announcement which Henry Hamlin, a young New York detective, saw in an Arizona newspaper from the town of Lasso. Disguised as an invalid, the detective goes to Lasso and locates as a boarder at Jenkins'. While staying at the Jenkins' Ranch Hamlin falls in love with Kate Jenkins, but he dare not make his identity known. He learns that Black Beauty, Kate's favorite horse, is the one that has been stolen. Kate shows much attention to the "sick man from the east." Hamlin discovers that Ed Muller, who has taken a notion to Kate, has stolen Black Beauty, with the assistance of Nick Hankins, a half-breed pal of Ed's. Laying his plans accordingly, it is not long before the detective from the east traps his man and receives as his reward not only the $1,000, but Kate Jenkins as his affianced wife. In this way they learn that the "sick man from the east" is not only a brave and fearless man, but a very healthy and resourceful specimen of humanity.
