His Kid Sister (1914)
"Sis is coming home for a visit," young ranch owner Dan Kenney announces to his foreman Ted and the boys. With a whoop, they dash off to meet the 4:40 train. Ted is in love with the girl, and she with him, but her brother Dan causes them both much anxiety because of his fondness for gambling. During an exciting game that night, Dan is accused of cheating. There is a fight and Dan shoots his opponent. Ted hustles him out, unobserved, and takes him to a cave in the foothills. On his return to the ranch house for horses. Molly insists on accompanying him to Dan's hiding place. After seeing the men on their way to the border, she turns back home, is mistaken by the sheriff and posse for her brother and leads them a merry chase, finally reaching the barn at the ranch house slightly ahead of the men. There she hurries in and climbs through a trap door into the loft. The sheriff decides to starve "their man" out. Molly finds a basket of apples in the loft and feels sure of her vantage. As the hours pass, both parties fall asleep. Molly awakens and knowing her brother is now safely across the border, slides down the rope and greets her "captors" with a sweet smile. The discomfited sheriff is obliged to acknowledge defeat. Later, far across the border, Dan, now a conscientious worker, and with no longer a taste for gambling, heartily sanctions Ted's engagement to "His Kid Sister."
