It is Dalton who arrives alone, half dead, just as the train looms up. They ignore his white signal and he heroically cuts his wrist and saturates the handkerchief with blood that warns the engineer of danger the last instant.
Dalton recovers; the men are reconciled; Dalton gets back his position; Donnelly mends his ways.

THE SALT OF VENGEANCE.
Author’s Remarks:
In the explosion scene, the supposed bridge that is blown up could be a set erected to look like portion of bridge showing thru trees. The question of color of the blood is solved by the Caption.
