What follows is the story of a daring nighttime raid. Wearing blackface, Cargunka and his partner sneak ashore by boat in the dead of night and trap the claim jumpers in their cabin, using ammonia to render the men temporarily unconscious. Cargunka invades the cabin and scoops up numerous bags of gold, and escapes just as the claim jumpers are regaining consciousness. There is some shooting, although Cargunka is loath to kill anyone, and the partners in crime eventually lose their pursuers and split the proceeds.
