Mr. Young places him in the care of a physician. When Tim recovers, Mr. Young procures employment for him in one of the mines, of which Jim Donovan is manager. Tim is an intelligent fellow. Jessie notices this and it does not escape the notice of Donovan. It doesn't take Tim long to produce his worth and he is made assistant manager. Donovan watches his opportunity to get back at Tim and for some trivial or pretended cause, he discharges him. Shortly after this, while Donovan is inspecting the mine, a cave-in takes place. Tim hears of the accident and learns that his rival, Donovan, must have been caught. He goes into the mine and finds the manager. He carries him to the elevator and restores him to his friends. After Donovan's recovery. Tim meets him with Jessie. He thanks Tim for rescuing him from possible death and commends him for his bravery and manliness.
