As Things Used to Be (1911)
Tom Hanson is a true type of western gambler, riotously drunk half his waking moments. Harry Martin is a better product of the west. Harry loves Tom's sister and for that reason, tries to reform him. In return for this, Tom learns to hate him, and to such an extent that he attempts to poison his sister's mind against him. In this he partly succeeds, by cleverly throwing suspicion on him as a thief. In spite of this, it falls to Harry's lot to have it in his power to save Tom from death at the hands of Indians, and he does this in a noble and courageous manner. When Tom learns that Harry was his gallant rescuer, remorse takes possession of him and he confesses the dastardly trick he played on Harry, and the latter is thus restored to the heart of his sweetheart and her parents. He magnanimously forgives the wayward Tom, and a most affecting scene transpires. The gambler decides to change his life for the better for he has gradually seen the goodness of men in Harry. With this change, the old folks are made happy, and it is needless to say that Harry and his sweetheart find true bliss once more.
