The Riding Rascal Synopsis

Larrabie Keller, a homesteader, is accused of being a cattle rustler, and when Keller refuses to fight Phil Sanderson, whose sister, Phyllis, has struck his fancy, he is insulted by Bill Healy, to whom he administers a severe drubbing. Phyllis, finding Keller beside a branding fire, believes him guilty; and when he is wounded by Healy, she takes Keller to Yeager, another homesteader, who cares for him and to whom he reveals that he is a Texas Ranger. In town, there is an attempt to frame Keller, but he is freed from jail by Phyllis. The rustlers lead a posse after him; and in a fight with Keller, Healy plunges to his death over a cliff. With the aid of Phil, he rounds up the rustlers and is forgiven.
