Blackie Saunders, an ex-outlaw, travels to Indian Springs with his young sidekick Sandy. Blackie’s friend Jim is the Parson of the town and they used to be outlaws together. Blackie is not accepted in Indian Springs due to his reputation as a killer, so Jim tells him it’s best to leave town. Right after Blackie leaves, the express office is robbed and everyone believes Blackie is behind the robbery. 

Later Blackie is cleared of the crime and now that Blackie has reformed, Betty chooses to marry him rather than the minister.
