A Cowboy's Daring Rescue (1910)
Hartley is a rancher. His daughter, Bess, is the sweetheart of Jack, a fine, manly fellow. Bosco is a card sharp who inveigles Hartley, while under the influence of liquor, into a card game. Jack catches Bosco cheating, stops the game, and after an encounter with Bosco takes Hartley home, where a scene of pathetic tenderness is enacted with Bess. In revenge, Bosco and his partner carry Bess away. Jack rides in pursuit while Hartley assembles a posse and follows. The two renegades quarrel, and during the ensuing fight Bess makes her escape. As Bosco is about to recapture her, Jack arrives on the scene and a terrific encounter follows, in which Bosco falls over the cliff. In the meantime the posse is riding hard and comes up in time to escort Jack and his sweetheart back. Hartley is stricken with remorse over the trouble his drinking has brought on and takes an oath never to touch liquor again. The last scene shows Jack and Bess at the little church, about to be married, while the cowboys fire their revolvers and cheer them.
