A Mistake in Rustlers (1916)

Tom and Vicky are sweethearts and plan to marry soon. There has been rustling of cattle on the range, and the sheriff offers a reward for the capture of the rustlers. Tom prizes a silk handkerchief presented to him by Vicky, and hides it in the bunkhouse. Buck, a cowboy, guilty of rustling, steals the kerchief, ropes a calf and ties the animal with the kerchief that Vicky gave Tom. The cowboys find the calf tied on the ground, take the kerchief, show it to the sheriff, who at once recognizes it as belonging to Tom. Tom, after a battle, escapes the sheriff, for he does not know what that officer has against him. Buck believes he is safe and resumes his rustling. However, Vicky detects him in the act of branding a calf belonging to her father. She captures Buck, brings him back to the ranch and Tom is exonerated.
