When Rose McDonald and Frank Mosby became engaged it appears that the deadly feud which has long existed between the families has come to an end. The betrothal is held at the McDonald cabin. All seem willing to forget past differences save McDonald, the bride's father and Joe, the groom's young brother. The day of the wedding arrives. Frank prevails upon the family to leave all weapons at home. He sends them ahead. Joe has informed Frank that he no longer regards him as a brother. It happens that Joe, while hunting, accidentally shoots his little sister. Frank on the way to the wedding discovers the little one's plight and takes her home, sending Joe to the McDonald cabin with an explanation. But Joe does not go, although he comes back and tells Frank that he has carried the word. The guests become impatient. Old McDonald is not at all hospitable and contends that Frank does not expect to marry the daughter. One unfortunate incident follows another and the old feud is about to be renewed when the bridegroom learns of his brother's treachery and carries the wounded little one to the McDonald cabin. He arrives amidst a hot battle and, ending hostilities, takes his place by Rose's side while the minister performs the belated ceremony.
