Western Yesterdays Synopsis
Rose Silvers (Florence Gilbert) wanders into an outlaw's camp (Pinto Pete played by Ashton Dearholt) as an orphan after losing her father who was killed while gambling. She depends on Sheriff Blake for moral support, but she believes he cares for someone else. Even though Pinto Pete admires Rose, he gives Rose a horse to ride back into town. The peculiar way the horse is shod convinces the sheriff that Pete has been involved in several local crimes and he arrests Pete. The sheriff ends up marrying Rose.
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. During a battle the Confederate is captured and brought to the young Union officer, who recognizes him, and later allows him to escape. 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 Heart of Lincoln" is currently leading in ratings, making it a stronger choice for newcomers to the genre.
