In making their getaway, one of the road agents is shot by the stage driver. They stop at a lonely cabin, where a miner's widow lives with her little daughter, and ask for aid. The widow dresses the wound and gives the men supper. They learn that she is about to be dispossessed by a harsh landlord, and in gratitude for her kindness, give her enough of their loot to pay off the mortgage. As they ride away, a humorous idea strikes them, and they proceed to put it into execution. They watch the old skinflint approach the cabin and emerge with his money. In a lonely bend of the trail they hold him up and take the money away from him. Running for his life, he falls in with the posse which is seeking the stage robbers, and guides the riders to the scene of the holdup, where they pick up the trail of the kindly road agents and soon capture them.
