Regan's Daughter (1914)
Known as a saloon-keeper, a politician and a bad man, Regan becomes the sworn enemy of Phil Riordan, a young headquarters detective. The only bright spot in Regan's life is his love for his daughter, Mary, who is being brought up in the Tennessee hills in ignorance of her father's character. Phil, on leave of absence, goes to Tennessee. While out tramping he loses his way and runs into a party of moonshiners, who believe him to be a spy. Mary appears and the girl saves Phil's life. The two later fall in love, and he, not knowing she is Regan's daughter, becomes her acknowledged sweetheart. Meantime, Regan kills a man in a fight and flees to his daughter's home in Tennessee to hide. Phil is ordered to return to headquarters to apprehend Regan, calls to bid Mary good-bye, finds she has gone out, meets her father and places him under arrest. Regan begs Phil not a reveal his character to his daughter. The detective agrees and, when Mary returns, is glad to find her father and sweetheart apparently the best of friends. On their trip through the mountains, Regan and Phil are attacked by moonshiners. Phil is shot, but Regan temporarily routs the mountaineers, and his better nature asserting itself, he carries the detective back to the cabin. On the way he is fatally shot, but struggles on to his destination. Mary cares for both and is overjoyed to find Phil's wound is slight. Regan, however, dies peacefully after receiving Phil's promise to keep secret her father's former life.
