Whom God Hath Joined (1914)
Madge, daughter of a wealthy ranch owner, returns from school. She has grown to be a beautiful girl and soon after her return tells her father she has become engaged and is expecting her fiancé to call on her soon. Shortly after she is insulted by a Mexican worker, a surly fellow, and is rescued by Big Jack, her father's foreman, who knocks the man down. Big Jack falls in love with Madge and in his awkward, shy way, courts the pretty western girl with all his heart. Madge likes the big fellow, but can give him no encouragement. The Mexican, seeking revenge, breaks into Madge's room and steals some trinkets and jewelry. He is caught in the act by Big Jack, but escapes. As Jack is standing over the open jewel case the girl's lover, who has arrived, enters and accuses him of trying to rob Madge. Heartbroken and in disgrace he leaves the ranch and for the sake of Madge restrains his anger at the unjust accusation. Some time later Madge is married to Frank and after the jollifications leave on their honeymoon. They do not know big Jack has returned and persuaded the driver to let him take the reins of the horses from the house to the depot. Half way there they are waylaid by the Mexican and his accomplices. Jack springs down and making known his identity unhitches the horses and tells Madge and her husband to ride for assistance and he will hold off the band from behind the wagon. A terrible pistol battle takes place. Jack is wounded time and again, but manages to hold off the Mexicans until assistance arrives. It is too late, however, and the big cowboy dies in Madge's arms, not, however, before he has been exonerated of the theft which Frank had unjustly accused him of.
