Plot

[edit]

As described in a film magazine review,[2] Richard Manley visits the El Grande mine in Mexico to check his father's interests and renews his acquaintance with Inez Del Rio, a niece of Don Carlos, owner of the mine. Mine superintendent Jack Slade is the rascal responsible for stopping the shipments of ore to Dick's father. Slade plots to remove Dick, who has evidence of Slade's conspiracy, and kidnaps him. However, Dick escapes in time to reach the hacienda and rescue the Don and Inez from Slade. Dick then constitutes himself to be the protector of Inez for life.
