The Two Ranchmen (1913)

Joe Churchill, a ranchman, quarrels with his neighbor, Fred Martin, over the big opening in the fence which allows Martin's chickens to dig up all of Churchill's seeds. Churchill's daughter, Dorothy, quarrels with Mrs. Martin about the affair. The two women end the feud by a hair-pulling match. Both ranchmen hitch up and leave to notify the sheriff. On the way to town Martin's horse runs away, turns over the buggy and kills the ranchman. Churchill returns to his ranch with the sheriff, but when told of the death of his neighbor, dismisses the officer. A year later Churchill falls in love with Martin's widow.
