Plot
[edit]According to the copyright description,[1] "Jimmy, arriving in the town, which is unable to keep a sheriff in office on account of the villainous doings of the villain, gang leader and his band, takes delight in beating up the villain, the latter attempts to kiss the girl against her will. She appeals to him to take the Sheriff's job and he does so. At first it appears as though he may join his predecessors, but the tide of battle turns in his favor; he beats up the villain; scares the gang out of town and settles down in earnest to his job. His plans to marry the heroine are frustrated, when she turns up with her husband-to-be-who proves to be no other than the previous gang-leader.
