Days of the Pony Express (1913)
Farley, the express and mail messenger for a small western town, is engaged to the daughter of the postmaster. He gives her a little folding telescope through which she watches up the mountain road for his coming every day. The postmaster receives word that a large amount of money is coming through the mail on a certain day. Jealousy prompts the clerk, who gets hold of the information to communicate it to two notorious bandits. When the day arrives they hold up the mail messenger and get possession of his sack. Farley, on arriving in town, without his mail is arrested and taken away by the sheriff. His sweetheart watches him through the telescope as he disappears up the mountain road, and in turning her head a little she sees the bandits dividing the contents of the mail sack. They are hidden from the road by the brush and foliage of the woods. Mounting her horse she rides after the sheriff and his prisoner and brings them back to where the thieves are. The bandits are captured, the money and mail recovered, and Farley happily restored to his freedom and fiancée.
