How Jack Got Even with Bud (1912)
Jack Dalton is a most admirable character. When Willie Burton meets with an accident and Jack comes to his aid and takes him to his home, and there meets Clara Burton, we feel that things are as they ought to be, in the coming together of these two. The advent of Bud Ahearn into the lives of these two is a stumbling block to their happiness. Ahearn tries to force himself on Clara in spite of her womanly protests. Jack Dalton intervenes and protects her. Bud has pals, and altogether, they are a bad lot. They decide to get Jack into their clutches. Unfortunately for him, he plays into the hands of the outlaws. While Willie and he are racing their steeds to try their mettle. Jack is swooped down on by Bud's confederates. Willie, who has seen the capture from a distance, dashes off for assistance. Jack himself has no idea of submitting so calmly to the machinations of his would-be rival, and maybe it didn't do one's heart good to see how his keen wit and indomitable pluck and bravery wins for him his release, unaided, from the clutches of the now thoroughly disconcerted scoundrel. Meantime, the happy-go-lucky cowpunchers have been informed of Jack's predicament, and with a whoop and a yell they are off for the rescue. That Bud meets his Waterloo goes without saying. Jack now stands higher still in the eyes of Clara. Thus comes to him a crowning triumph, and happiness for them both in the passing of Bud.
