The Glorious Trail Synopsis
Pat O'Leary (Ken Maynard) is the construction foreman supervising the completion of a telegraph line and does so despite the efforts of Gus Lynch (Frank Hagney), a trading post owner, who has an agenda of his own to see that it isn't completed, and stirs up Indian uprisings and turmoil and havoc by his gang of motley henchmen to ensure his agenda.
Blackmail Synopsis
Confidence artist Flossie Golden attempts to fleece foolish but wealthy James Venable with a breach-of-promise suit. Venable's shrewd attorney, Richard Harding, outwits Flossie by proposing that she marry Venable and live on an allowance of $3,000 per year. Flossie is determined to get even with Harding for ruining her plans. In an attempt to con him, she poses as Innocence Page, but falls in love and marries him instead. Larry, Flossie's former accomplice, endeavors to blackmail her with her errant past, but Harding is already cognizant of the facts and Larry fails.
"The Glorious Trail" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Blackmail" offers its own unique cult appeal.
