He immediately falls in love with pretty Belle Langley, his host's daughter, who is loved by two cowboys, "Red" Roberts and "Brownie." The boys dislike Harry and they put up some games on him. When Harry goes to his room to dress for a dance he finds that the boys have borrowed all of his clothes. The dance on a platform in the picturesque Roaring River country is a unique and interesting scene. Harry steals the cowboy's chaps and it is a queer looking outfit that presents itself to the "Boss" when the boys report for work next day, dressed in evening coats, Tuxedoes, and Harry's fancy suits. Then the boys take Harry to town and get him drunk. The game goes wrong when Harry goes on the rampage, shoots up the place, and chases the cowboys with two guns. The boys get mad and write a letter to Harry telling him to get out before noon or they will land him. Harry stays and the cowboys proceed to carry out their threat. Belle finds the threatening note and rides to Harry's rescue. She comes just in time. Harry is about to be strung up at the end of a rope when Belle rides in and with one shot from her revolver severs the rope. Then that gun sends some lead toward the lynching committee, and they scatter in a hurry. Belle concludes that Harry will be safer as her affianced husband.
