Broncho Billy saves an Indian from starvation. The Indian's intelligence is soon discovered by Broncho, who determines to make the red man a partner in his prospecting camp. An accident renders the prospector unconscious and the Indian hastens to the village for a doctor. The physician discovers that Broncho Billy's marred face is filled with dirt and gold. He tries to bribe the Indian. "Where did the explosion occur? See, Buck, I'm going to give you this money, tell me?" But the Indian is loyal. With the aid of two or three miners, the Indian is overpowered in Broncho Billy's shack, yet he will not tell them where the prospector has been working. Regaining consciousness, Broncho Billy enters the adjoining room in time to save the red man from the hands of the outraged miners, and the prospector voices his appreciation of the Indian's loyalty.
