He owns the town's only bank and his pretty daughter, Jane, acts as cashier. She is attending to her duties when a stranger enters and asks numerous questions, which arouse the girl's suspicions. Late at night the stranger returns, opens the safe and departs with the strong box. Rand hears him, but too late to get a shot at him. The sheriff is aroused, a posse secured and the robber pursued. He has too much of a lead, however, and escapes. When Rand and the posse return to Copper City they find a surprise awaiting them, as Jane, suspecting the stranger, emptied the strong box that night and hid its contents beneath her pillow. The bandit, when he finds he is no longer pursued, sits down to count his golden harvest and to his dismay discovers that he has stolen only some golden lemons.
