The Everlasting Triangle (1914)
The excitement in Thunder Valley was on the wars and Philbin had about decided to shift to another scene, when he became embroiled in a gambling house quarrel, and when the lamps were relighted, he stood there with a smoking revolver in his hand, while across the table sprawled one of the gamblers, shot through the heart. Even though it was proven that the gambler had cheated, Philbin, knowing that he would have to leave the locality, rushed to Kate's cabin, and tried to persuade her to go east with him. The fact that the girl might have thought enough of Santley to marry him had never occurred to Philbin, and he was astounded when she showed him her wedding ring, saying that they had been married that very day. Philbin returned east and the young couple lived a quiet life, until one day, Santley decided to go on a long prospecting trip. It was just at this time that Philbin wrote Kate, painting glowing word pictures of the delights of the east. The loneliness of the mountains had begun to have its effect upon the girl and, in desperation, she answered, telling him to come for her. In due time, Philbin arrived, and she left the cabin with him, after writing a farewell note to Santley, enclosing her wedding ring. They had only been gone a few hours when Santley returned unexpectedly to the cabin. Reading the note, he followed their trail, and discovered that they had taken the wrong one, which, instead of leading them to the railroad station, would carry them straight out on the desert. Step by step he followed them, finally arriving at their camp, and discovered them both asleep. Kate was the first to awaken under his concentrated gaze, and when their voices aroused Philbin, he opened his eyes only to find himself gazing into the muzzle of Santley's gun. Vengeance was in Santley's heart. Of the three horses, he shot two and forced them to draw lots for the remaining one. Chance favored Kate, but she failed to reach the railway. Thirst and the desert caused Philbin's end, and Santley went before his Maker with the name of the woman he had loved upon his lips.
