In the Right of Way (1911)
John Burton, a railroad clerk from the east, was spending his vacation hunting in the wild lands about John Walsh's shack. One morning, as he was eagerly following a large hawk, which he had already wounded, he lost his balance on the edge of a cliff and plunged down to the stony ground below. His cries for help attracted Walsh's attention and he was taken to the latter's cabin, where he was tenderly cared for by Walsh and his wife, until he was able to return to his duties in the east. Walsh's wife was the apple of his eye, but, like most things that we love, she did not last, and twenty years later we find him a broken old man, living in the days that are gone. Walsh had heard about the new railroad which was to run in his neighborhood, and one day was surprised to find the construction gang on his property, trampling around in the vicinity of his wife's grave. He threatened them with his shotgun and angrily ordered them off, and when the sheriff later appeared, with a writ of eviction, he ordered him away. The chief engineer received a letter about this time, saying that the president of the road was not satisfied with the progress made and was personally coming to superintend the work. Walsh was the stumbling block in the engineer's path, and so he armed his men and ordered them to eject Walsh by force. A spirited exchange of shots was in evidence when the president arrived and he was just in time to see his men bring the wounded Walsh from his cabin, while they set about destroying it. The recognition between the two old friends was mutual, for the president was Burton, the former railroad clerk, whose life Walsh had saved. Walsh led the way to the grave of his wife, and explained his reasons for not wanting to vacate the land where all that he held sacred rested in peace. Burton sympathized deeply with his old friend, and arranged with his engineer to make a wide detour about the property, so that the memory of the dead might be respected.
