Aside from his calling, his appearance aroused the ridicule of the cowboys and they kid him. A fresh young kid slaps a girl of the underworld and makes his escape on a horse. Father Walsh chases him on another, drags him off the horse and carries him back to the crowd, where he forces him to apologize to the girl and then spanks him, in full view of the crowd, and drops him in the dust, much to the crowd's admiration. Among the lookers-on is a "bad man," who has been concerned with two other men in cattle rustling and stage robbing. He shakes the priest's hand and expresses admiration for him. Walsh sees a streak of good in him and determines to save him. If possible, he follows him into a saloon and prevents him from further drinking. While there the bad man's sister comes to get him to go home and the priest coaxes him to go, thus earning the gratitude of the sister. The priest is the only man that the bad man will listen to and he succeeds in getting him to give up his drinking, and is fast molding him into a better man when he is suddenly called away to administer to a miner, who has been hurt up in the hills. During his absence the two pals of the bad man call on him and kid him for allowing the priest to make a good man out of him. Taunted by his pals, he goes to the saloon, gets to drinking and rides away with them on a hold-up expedition. Their plans are overheard by the bad man's sister and when the priest returns she tells him of their scheme. Walsh rides after them, overtakes them in the mountains, overcomes the three of them and takes the bad man back to his home. The two pals go through with the robbery as prearranged, and the next day are captured and strung up. The priest shows the bad man the account of the matter and thus proves to him how lucky it was that he had arrived in time to take him out of such company. The bad man reforms for good and joins the priest in his campaign against the powers of evil. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
