The Rustlin' Kid Synopsis

Ted Hilton, out of work and broke, goes to Mesaville to hear the reading of his uncle's will which provides him with a fortune on condition that he marry Jane Bond, daughter of an old friend. Picturing a parchment skinned spinster, Ted revolts and tells the lawyer to let the money go to charity. He strides outside where he saves a child from the hoofs of a runaway buckboard, driven by attractive Jane Bond. She thanks him for his heroic act and they drift into conversation. He confides his dilemma and she agrees with him that Jane Bond is an awful cluck, introducing herself as Jane's friend, Suzie Smith. Ted is offered a slice of loot by an outlaw crew, headed by Jane's faithless foreman, Joe Sage, if he will steal from Jane Bond a large sum of money which she has on hand for a cattle deal. He knocks out Sage and escapes from them, riding to warn Jane Bond and meeting "her friend Suzie Smith" who has just hidden the money behind a picture. He is not sorry to have to wait for Jane in the agreeable company of the beautiful Suzie, but his bliss is ended when Sage comes in and accuses him of coming to steal the money. Jane looks behind the picture and the money is missing. Ted escapes but is overtaken by the gang, who find no money on him and assume that he has led them away on a ruse. A faithful deaf mute ranch hand reveals to Jane that he took the money when he saw the stranger coming. Sage returns and demands the money. The deaf mute is overcome. Ted breaks in and his flying fists turn the tables. The deaf mute shows detective credentials and speaks for the first time, arresting Sage and the gang.
