The Saving of Dan (1911)
Dan Blake is a cowboy with many good qualities, but he has an ungovernable temper. Beating his horse one day, he was surprised by the ranch owner's daughter, who berated him and caused his discharge. A little later, while he was sitting by the side of the road, the girl came along. She was on horseback, but in an instant he had dragged her from the saddle. But as the girl prayed to him in her distress, he thought of his sister, and his mother, and he drew from his pocket a letter from the former, in which she admonished him to deal with others as he would have her dealt with. His true manhood asserted itself. Then he led the sorrow-stricken girl back on her way to her friends, and she, seeing the triumph of his better nature, loved him for it. It was the start toward a greater love. The absence of the girl brought the cowpunchers, led by her father, to the trail. They had found her hat and revolver where the struggle first occurred, and so they suddenly came upon them in a rocky glen as they made their way, and the enraged father shot the kidnapper of his child before she could explain. It then fell to the girl's lot to nurse the now thoroughly repentant cowboy back to life and health. She then crowned him with the mantle of happiness, for she gave herself to him in wedlock.
