Plot

[edit]

As described in a film magazine review,[2] Bill Swift goes to work on Captain Randall's ranch, and finds that he is in love with Randall's daughter Helen. Randall, a former sailor, possesses a valuable black pearl. Lord and Lady Rathburne visit the ranch. They are really international thieves, working with confederates to obtain the Randall pearl. Bill gains the crook's confidence and thus is able to thwart their scheme. He finally rounds up the gang, reveals that he is a government agent, and marries Helen.
