The Ranger and the Girl (1910)
The Ranger is a member of the famous band of Texans whose exploits have made them the equals of the Canadian Northwest Mounted Police. The girl is the daughter of a smuggler whose livelihood is gained by smuggling laces and other goods across the Rio Grande. Esmeralda loses her scarf, which catches upon a branch projecting ever the roadway and when she realizes her loss and returns to search for it, she finds it in the possession of Captain "Bud" Carver of the Rangers. Carver is smitten with her charms and accompanies her to her home. While seeking a drink his hat blows down the well into which the laces have been lowered and the efforts made to dissuade him from recovering the headgear rouse his suspicions. He later returns to verify his theories and is captured by the smugglers who carry him off to kill him in a more descried spot. Esmeralda alarms his fellows in the troop and they ride to his rescue. Carver is threatened by one of the smugglers, who has instructions to kill him should the Rangers attack, and Esmeralda knows that her father means his threat. As the only way of saving her lover she wounds the smuggler and her father but aids them to escape, offering herself as hostage to Carver, who gladly accepts the proffer.
