Arriving there, he goes into partnership with Carl Stockdale. A few days after they strike pay dirt, Fred is taken with a paroxysm of coughing and Stockdale sends him back to the cabin to rest up. Realizing that the end is near, he writes a letter to his mother and sister, telling them he is going into the valley and not to worry if they do not hear from him, that his partner will send them his share every week. He also writes a note to Stockdale, telling him not to notify his mother and sister of his demise, as the shock would kill his mother, who is an invalid. His mother dies, and the sister goes to seek her brother. She finds her way to the cabin while Stockdale is out prospecting, and accidentally comes across the note her brother has written before he passed away. Stockdale returns and brings her to Fred's grave on the hill. In trying to comfort her in her sorrow a pretty romance springs up between them and later we see them happily married.
