Sandy, the Poacher (1909)
In the Scotch Highlands a game warden's beautiful daughter loves "Sandy" a rollicking young fellow who by continual poaching on the game preserves keeps the wardens constantly in action. The warden's assistant, a rejected suitor, determines to frustrate the love making of his rival and being gradually worked to a frenzy of jealous hatred, resolves to remove him by "fair means or foul." "Sandy" has several narrow escapes. One day in the woods he is caught in the act of trapping hares by the warden, his sweetheart's father. A quarrel ensues. In his excitement the warden attempts to use his gun. It is accidentally discharged. The old man falls dead. "Sandy" is horrified and thinks himself the unfortunate cause. The assistant has witnessed the struggle from behind a tree and aims at "Sandy," but fate decrees that the guns should both be discharged at the same time and he becomes an assassin. The old woman whom "Sandy" has befriended has witnessed all this from where she was concealed and keeps her secret, in terror of the ways of justice, until circumstances afford her an opportunity of bringing the real offender to his deserts.
