- Intent upon ridding his town of crime, Dead Shot Baker, the beloved sheriff of Wolfville, drives a band of outlaws to the outskirts, where they hold up the stagecoach and carry two girls away to the hills. Baker and his posse overtake the bandits and rescue the girls, one of whom is the beautiful and willful Evelyn Baldwin, the daughter of a once wealthy miner who is now a penniless drunkard. Old Baldwin is killed in the battle and Evelyn, although penniless, refuses to work. Baker comes to her rescue and marries the girl, who then snubs him for the new postmaster. Feeling inferior to his wife, Baker invites death so that she may be free to marry the postmaster. Heading a posse against a band of notorious rustlers, Baker falls to his apparent death from a cliff. When news of her husband's death reaches Evelyn, she heads a posse back into the hills, routs the outlaws, finds her husband and nurses him back to health, thus winning the respect of the townspeople.
- Dead-Shot Bake is sheriff of Wolfville and the terror of outlaws. He drives three of them from town, and to get revenge, they hold up the stage, kill the messenger and carry two girls away to the hills. Baker and his posse overtake the bandits in a mountain battle and rescue the girls, one of whom is the beautiful and willful daughter of a Wolfville character, once a wealthy miner, but now a penniless drunkard. He is killed in the battle and the girl, Evelyn, is a helpless charge in the rough camp. She refused the efforts of her friends to get her employment and finally the sheriff marries her. The girl is anything but a loving wife, and is disliked by nearly everybody. The only person she shows any interest in is a dapper Easterner, and they are much together, much to the distress of Baker and the disgust of his friends. Baker blames himself for marrying such a girl and his love for her is so deep he invited death that she may be free to marry the postmaster. He leads his posse against a noted band of rustlers and in a fight with their leader falls to apparent death over a cliff. Returning to camp for reinforcements, the news of Baker's death rouses Evelyn, who never held more than a passing fancy for the postmaster. Filled with remorse, she leads the posse back into the hills, the outlaws are routed and Baker is found and nursed back to life and happiness by Evelyn.—Moving Picture World synopsis
