What Is That Chink at Golden Gulch About?
The premise of That Chink at Golden Gulch without spoilers.
In China, Charlie Lee vows never to dishonor his family by cutting his pigtail. After emigrating, he works as a laundryman in a California mining town, where local men torment him until a young woman and her cowboy suitor befriend him. One tormentor, a well‑dressed idler, is secretly a mail‑bandit whose rivalry with the cowboy for the girl’s affection escalates. Suspecting him, Charlie follows the bandit, witnesses a robbery, and captures him by cutting his own pigtail to bind the thief. Though rewarded, Charlie feels ashamed, gives the money to the couple, and quietly leaves Golden Gulch.
