Red Fern and the Kid (1910)
The Kid enters the tavern in time to prevent Andy from forcing a drink on Red Fern. She entered to dispose of some bead work, when Andy thought it would be a huge joke to compel her to drink the undesired liquor. The Kid saves her from this and thereby earns her gratitude, and, it would seem, her love. Andy, provoked at his interference, wants to stroke her, but the Kid is undaunted by the approach of the cowboys, and they, admiring his bravery, repulse Andy. When Red Fern and the Kid meet later, they tell of their love and the latter of his wish to make her his squaw. So they go to the Chief and the Kid offers his horse and saddle in trade for Red Fern. But this is not enough, the Chief would have two horses. Unable to pay the price, the Kid bids good-bye to Red Fern and gives her his handkerchief. Love, and the desire to become the Kid's squaw, being uppermost in her mind, she steals money from the tavern, and when about to be detected by the proprietor, she wounds him and makes off, dropping, however, the Kid's handkerchief. She runs to him and gives him the money wherewith to purchase her. He asks how she obtained it and hesitatingly she tells him. He puts it away and at that minute the sheriff comes to arrest the Kid, having identified the handkerchief. Red Fern holds them off and the Kid makes his escape. At the end of a long chase they catch him and are about to hang him. Red Fern arrives, however, in time to make the needed explanation, when they are presented with the money and all made happy.
