The Yellow Streak (1915)
Ed Merritt is a profligate son and his father tells the mother that the scapegrace must go west where he can make or break himself. Nancy is the toast of the far western town. In a dance hall Ed is introduced to Nancy by a cowpuncher. Nancy tries to turn him from the gaming table. After a year Ed receives a letter that his father is dead and his mother wants him to return and take his father's place in the world of affairs. He deserts Nancy, leaving a note, telling her it will be useless for her to try to find him. Ed assumes his dead father's place in the eastern firm. In the meantime, a son is born to the deserted wife in the west. After seventeen years Ed Merritt is told to go west for his health. Nancy saves him from shooting his own son, and the father pleads for forgiveness, which is denied him.All Releases
