Plot

As described in a film magazine review,[2] Bill Barlow, a ne’er-do-well decides reform himself by taking work in his father’s lumber camp. Some tramps take his clothes and he is forced to don theirs. He arrives at the camp and is refused recognition as the boss’ son, but is given work helping the cook. He overhears a plot to cut across property belonging to another landholder. He prevents this and obtains the required amount of money to pay off the mortgage for John Calhoun and his daughter Bess, who Bill has decided is to be his future wife, and sells the land to his father.
