A Tale of Death Valley (1913)
Sweethearts Lillian Pierce and Jim Wentworth gain Lillian's parents' consent and become engaged. Jim was employed on her father's ranch and was a favorite of the father's. Will Mason was working on the same ranch, but less favored and his proposal was met with the announcement of Lillian's engagement to Jim. Will concocts a plot with dance-hall habituee, who agrees to pose as Jim's deserted wife. The plot works well, and disgraced Jim leaves the scenes of his former paradise. Will presses his suit with a vengeance but still meets with staunch refusal, so he seeks aid from a band of desperadoes in Death Valley. His mission is fruitless and he succumbs to exhaustion. Later Jim comes upon the bleached skeleton of Will Mason and the forged marriage certificate. The reunion of Jim and Lillian is a foregone conclusion.
