On a visit to the State Prison with Superintendent Melvin of the construction camp near Lone Point. 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. The action works up to a thrilling climax which finds Helen, pursued by Strang, climbing to the topmost branch of a tree overhanging the railroad, tracks, from which she swings through the air and lands on the pay car. Her warning is none too soon.
