The Desert Scorpion (1920)

When a band of sheepherders decide to settle on cattle land, the neighboring cattlemen warn them to move on, but their leader refuses, sparking a feud in which the cattlemen set fire to the sheepherders' homes. In retaliation, the Sheepherder, although in love with the Cattle King's daughter, leads a robbery on the cattlemen's bank. Finding the Sheriff's daughter impregnated and deserted by the Cattle King's daughter's fiancé, a villainous Easterner, the Sheepherder provides her shelter and compassion. He then abducts the Cattle King's daughter to nurse the sick woman. The cattlemen track them to the cabin, where all is revealed; the bank robbery is forgiven in terms of repayment for the destruction of the sheepherders' homes, and the Cattle King's daughter, realizing the infamy of her fiancé, accepts the love of the Sheepherder.
