Helen gains the friendship of Butler, a former telegrapher who had been wrongfully convicted on circumstantial evidence. Butler is soon to be released and Helen promises to aid him. She does so by securing a position for him as telegraph operator at the construction camp. Here Strang, an ex-convict, recognizes Butler, and attempts to force him to aid his plan to rob the pay car.
