The Two Browns (1911)
There are two Browns. One is John W., the other Joe W. John is from New York City. Joe is to the manner born. These two worthies fall desperately in love with Virginia Dare, daughter of their ranch boss. Virginia favors the suit of John, the New Yorker, and this arouses the jealousy of Joe, who, falling into a bad mood, resolves to gain his ends by foul methods. He has a friend in New York write a letter to John, making it appear as from John's wife. When John receives it, he regards it as a mistake or a practical joke, and laughing, hands it to Joe. This is what the latter expected, and once in his hands, he saw that it fell into Virginia's hands. She spurned John from that time forth, giving him no chance to defend himself, nor the slightest hint of what she had learned, which she, of course, believed. Then Joe found favor with her, more to spite John than for aught else. Thus did unhappiness come to Virginia and John because of Joe's rascality. Joe's pal in New York, who had sent the unfortunate letter, wrote to Joe about it. But he addressed it to J.W. Brown, and so it happened that the letter fell into John's hands and was opened by him. The parson was just about to tie the knot between Virginia and Joe, when in burst John with the timely evidence, and upset the plans which Joe had so nicely laid. Joe retired under the scornful and scorching glances of every one present. John received the congratulations from the guests, which otherwise would have been the other's.
