She becomes a dancer in a saloon owned by a lifetime friend, who has refused to sell his property to a rival who believes that there is oil on the land. A plague breaks out and the rival prevents aid from coming in. The jockey prays for rain with the aid of the parish priest and it comes. Nell's friend in his will leaves his property to the couple.
