Turner, a man of bad character, conducts an inn in the country. His step-daughter, Grace, is his drudge. While on an errand to the village she meets Jack, a wealthy young man. He is much attracted by her. Jack goes to the bank, and draws a large sum of money. Hank, a pal of Turner, sees him, and tries to ambush him on the road, but fails. Then he goes ahead to tell Turner. Jack, on his trip, meets Grace, who is nearly exhausted. He takes her home, and thus seems to play directly into the hands of the villains. They steal his revolver, and would drug him, were it not for the fact that Grace writes a warning on the wall with wine. Jack, aided by Grace, escapes but the girl is wounded. Jack marries Grace.
