The Girl from Thunder Mountain (1914)
Lawrence Bartlett, an eastern engineer, while working in the mountains of Virginia, is confronted by Tom Floyd, a moonshiner whom, taking him for a government official, is about to shoot him. His daughter, Kentucky, interferes and saves his life. Bartlett accompanies them to their cabin, where he is disgusted with the manner in which they live. He returns to New York, and, one evening, dines with Mr. and Mrs. Wentworth, former Virginians. Bartlett gets into an argument with Mrs. Wentworth concerning the mountaineer women. She claims they have good blood in their veins. He argues that they are dirty and ignorant and to prove his point asks her to bring one of these women to her home, and try to force her on New York society. Mrs. Wentworth agrees. While motoring in Virginia. Mrs. Wentworth's car goes into a ditch. She is near the Floyd cabin, is taken in and shown great kindness. She takes a great liking to Kentucky and takes the girl home with her. Bartlett fails to recognize Kentucky as the girl who once saved his life and falls in love with her. One day Mrs. Floyd comes to New York to see her daughter. Bartlett recognizes her and makes very uncomplimentary remarks about her to Kentucky. Kentucky becomes enraged and leaves with her mother for their mountain cabin. Bartlett is lost without her, and after admitting to Mrs. Wentworth that he was wrong, goes to Virginia, where he asks Kentucky to become his wife. She consents.
