Huntin' Trouble Synopsis
Clay Rathbun, a struggling young attorney, does not believe in violence. He is in love with Eleanor Morgan, daughter of Captain Morgan, an ex-ranger and brother of Ranger "Slim" Morgan, Clay's best friend. Gus Ogilbie, after serving 5 years in jail, comes out seeking revenge but fails to get the drop on Clay (whose father, now dead, helped to convict him). Eleanor, at her father's insistence, rejects Clay because he is not a ranger. When Slim is discovered near death, Clay puts on Slim's holster and for once in his life goes out "huntin' trouble." Gus and his men show up, and Eleanor sends Bullet, Clay's dog, with her handkerchief to fetch Clay. Clay arrives in time to defeat the culprits in a fight, and Captain Morgan accepts Clay as his future son-in-law.
A Sister to Salome Synopsis
When famous opera singer Elinore Duane undergoes an operation on her throat, she has a series of ether-induced visions. In one, she is transported to ancient Rome where she appears as a much-admired woman in love with Paul, a young heretic, and at odds with Lutor, the high priest. To save her love, she poisons Lutor with her ring. After several other visions which involve variations on this love triangle, Elinore awakens to discover that Lutor is actually her doctor, Sascha Jaccard, and that Paul is the son of a friend who has come to visit the recovering prima donna.
"Huntin' Trouble" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "A Sister to Salome" offers its own unique cult appeal.
