One of them has prospered with the times and has become president of a bank. He makes a loan to his "buddy" without any endorsement or security - a loan of ten thousand dollars. And the pal immediately loans it to his brother for business reasons. Comes to the bank an examiner, who informs the president that unless the loan is called in by the succeeding noon he will be prosecuted. The other banker in the town is unable to help him out of his difficulty, since he is sending his surplus on the midnight train to a distant city. The '"buddy" learns of this plan and starts to hold up the express to make good his loan, but the president frustrates the scheme. He would prefer to hit the trail to the cattle country rather than approve of any such methods to cover the loan. The disconsolate men journey back to the home and find the brother has returned with the loan and a rich surplus in the bargain. The author's humorous twist comes when the two pals announce that they were down to the station to meet him, but didn't see him get off the train.
