Salt of the Earth
1917, English. Directed by Saul Harrison.
A miner is swindled by a crooked, fast-talking con man. The con man is the father of Wallace, who is the fiancé of Marjorie, the miner's daughter.

However, two old prospectors--Sinful John and Snowshoe Sam--set out to bring Marjorie and Wallace back together again.
