Yancey and Harper are discovered shooting at each other in the opening of the story. They are stopped by the rain. Returning home, Harper tries to persuade his only son, Frank, to go out and become actively engaged in the feud. Frank refuses. Yancey likewise has his daughter, Louisa, swear a blood oath on the Bible against the Harpers. She takes the oath. Frank Harper leaves home and goes to the city where he becomes a practicing lawyer in eight years. He returns to the village upon being informed that his old father is grieving for him. While there he meets Louisa Yancey, who is now a beautiful young woman. A love affair ensues. They are discovered by old Yancey in a loving attitude and upon the girl's return he berates her and hands her the rifle, ordering her to go out and shoot Frank Harper. She, remembering the blood oath, attempts to do so, but her courage fails her at the critical moment. She returns to the cabin after a scene with Frank who assures her of his love. Old man Yancey discovers the hiding place of the lovers upon their secret meetings and goes there, lying in ambush for Frank. He is overseen by Louisa, who makes a quick cut across a dangerous marsh in order to warn Frank Harper of his impending danger. In doing so she is caught in a quicksand. Her cry of distress is heard by Frank and he rushes to her rescue. He makes a rope of the horse's bridle and is about to rescue her when the old man Yancey appears on the scene and being unable to see the person who Frank is rescuing, shoots him in the hand. Later he sees that it is his daughter whom Frank is trying to save and he aids Harper in rescuing the girl. Yancey and Frank Harper shake hands. Through the influence of the young people the two old men are finally reconciled. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
