Joe Benton, a foreman of a gang of bridge builders, is sent on a job of bridge building on a new railroad through farming country. He saves the life of Bessie Waters, when she loses her oar and her boat is dashed against the river abutment of the new bridge. Joe Benton employs a young local blacksmith (who is in love with Bess) on the bridge. Joe vanquishes the blacksmith in a fight, and marries Bess in the spring.

Bess gets work in a store, but her beauty attracts attention and she is offered a position as a cloak model. ...
