| Plot Summary |
John Allen was a prosperous ranchman, but was of the idea that his oldest son, Tim, was especially built for work and that John, Jr. his youngest son, was better adapted to play the part of a gentleman. John Jr. was not slow to take advantage of conditions, but little did he appreciate that he was playing the culprit and that his brother, although he had but few of the pleasures of life, was possessed, of a much nobler character. When John Jr., fell into evil ways and was in a fair way to spend a term at the workhouse it was Tim who spared his father from what would have been a bitter disappointment and paid his brother's penalty, and when his sentence had been expiated, he again bore the burden of responsibility for his brother's weakness, for which he was cast from his home by the unjust mandate of an irate father.
