Short summary
Keats (J.B>Warner) is suspected of being the member of a gang of rustlers while he is trying to save his weakling brother from their influence and keep his brother from becoming an outlaw. Keats is captured and about to be hung when the local sheriff (Robert McKenzie) frees him during a ruse. Keats is recaptured by the vigilantes and placed in jail but escapes in time to foil the outlaw gang from robbing the local Wells Fargo office. The Sheriff makes Keats his Deputy and together they capture the gang. After being mortally wounded by the gang, Keats is exonerated by his dying brother who makes a deathbed confession clearing Keats of any wrongdoing.
A portion of the film was released in 1937 by Hollywood Film Enterprises under the title Rounding Up The Bandits and may contain the only footage of the original 1924 5 reel 35 mm nitrate film. The 16 mm portion of the original film is approximately 11 minutes long and is the later portion of the film when Keats and the Sheriff capture the gang attempting to rob the Wells Fargo office.
