Malone acting as manager of Lower 7 takes an opportunity to cause trouble when McShane, manager of Upper 7 is ill. He makes it very dis- agreeable for the Upper 7 ranch. Hughes is appointed manager until one from the East arrives. Ned Fielding and Douglas Mason are working on the road. The Black Raider was stealing and causing much troubleand Hawk- ins the sheriff, can not find who it is. Malone is in love with Rose Hawkins and hates Hughes, whom he thinks Rose cares for. Fielding catches on to the Black Raider and dresses accordingly. Rose and Ned are in love with each other, and Rose is very much wrought up because she thinks Ned has something to do with the Black Raider. Genie comes from the East and takes charge of the Upper 7 and wins out against Malone. A party of ladies comes from the East and are not used to the rough western ways, and be- come very frightened. Malone shoots Fielding because he finds his mistake in thinking it was Hughes. Genie saves Ned and Tom McShane, fGenie's Cousinj saves her from Malone. Fawn-No-Fraid, the Indian girl, tells that Malone robbed the Sedhill bank. He is captured and released be- cause of his parents and The Black Raider was Fawn's father, so they are permitted to escape.
