As described in a film magazine review,[3] Jack Taylor, a supposed deaf-mute, arrives in Valley City snooping about in apparently aimless fashion, thereby winning recognition among the townspeople as "The Silent Stranger." Mail thefts have occurred and Dad Warner, postmaster, is threatened with discharge. Taylor suspects Sleeman, Warner's clerk, as being behind the thefts. Taylor is captured by the gang, escapes, stops another robbery, and saves Warner's daughter Lillian from the bandits. Taylor, who is really a United States Secret Service man charged with ending the mail thefts, brings about the arrest of the gang and wins the affection of the young woman.
