Fame and Fortune (1918)

Clay Burgess, a rover, returns to his home town to find his father, a banker, dead and his property in the clutches of "Big" Dave Dawley by means of a fake will. The real will is possessed by Ben Davis, who works on Della Bowen's ranch outside of town. After visiting Ben and promising Della that he will return to marry her, Clay recruits the help of a gang that have been fighting Dawley's henchmen for control of the town. After a series of adventures, including a brutal fight in which Dawley is killed, Clay and his men exterminate the rival Dawley gang. The wandering cowboy then retrieves his property and marries Della.
