The Heart of Lincoln Synopsis
During the Civil War, a young man joins the Union army. His sweetheart's brother, on the other hand, joins the Confederate forces.

For that action he is tried for treason, convicted and sentenced to hang. All that remains now is for President Abraham Lincoln to sign his death warrant.
The Avenging Trail Synopsis
Lumberjack Gaston Olaf is newly arrived in the lumber camp of Havens Falls, but it isn't long before he finds himself coming to the rescue of the lovely Rose Havens, who is being pursued by the nasty Lefty Red. Impressed by Olaf's actions, lumber boss Dave Taggart hires Olaf to be foreman of his band of rogue lumbermen. Taggart, however, has his own plans for Rose, and not the same kind that Lefty had--he's after a valuable stand of wood on Rose's property and hatches a scheme that will allow him to not only get the wood but the land it stands on and Rose's safe in the bargain. while ensuring that both Rose and Olaf remain unaware of his plan.
"The Heart of Lincoln" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Avenging Trail" offers its own unique cult appeal.
