Mr. Potter of Texas (1922)

Young Sam Potter arrives in Texas, with hardly any money but determined to make his fortune. Through a combination of luck and hard work, he strikes oil and becomes a millionaire. Years later, widowed and with a young daughter, he accepts an invitation from some childhood friends to visit them in England. From there he travels to Egypt, but in the meantime he finds himself accused of a crime he didn't commit and with the authorities after him. He seeks out Lord Annerly, who can clear him, but when he finds the man he is on his deathbed.
