The Remittance Man (1912) watch online HD

Cecil Rand has been allowed a monthly remittance by his brother, the Earl of Essex, and sent to Western America to make something of himself. He registers at a rough Western hotel, where he soon has a fight with Buck, a gambler and inebriate, who made sport of his English clothes, and after "licking" Buck, leaves the hotel. Helen Evans, the pretty daughter of a miner, has witnessed the encounter, and rather falls in love with the Englishman. She hurries home and places a card reading "Room to let," on her house. Sure enough, Rand applies for it and is taken in. Helen determines to make a westerner of him, and making him change his English riding costume for a real western outfit, secured for him a position in her father's mine. But Buck has never forgotten his beating, and revenge is his creed. He steals unobserved to the mine, and as miner Evans is being lowered in the shaft, cuts the rope. Great confusion follows, and Helen, in her excitement, promises to marry the man who saves her...
