Desc: The Adopted Son: Directed by Charles Brabin. With Francis X. Bushman, Beverly Bayne, Leslie Stowe, Jack W. Johnston. A feud has existed between the McLanes and the Conovers in the Tennessee mountains for many years. "Two Gun Carter" leaves Texas after a shooting fray and arrives just in time to witness George Conover's death at the hands of Henry McLane. Carrying young Conover's body to his family, Carter is very moved by their grief that he agrees to become their adopted son and subsequently falls in love with Marian Conover. In an attempt to put an end to the feud, Carter suggests a duel between himself and Henry McLane, but Henry refuses, and so, to uphold his family honor, Tom McLane, the clan leader, accepts the challenge. In the midst of the match, news arrives that Henry has abducted Marian. Carter rushes off and rescues Marian just as Henry and his horse plunge over the edge of a cliff. Carter then demands that an end be put to the feud as he himself was a born McLane and now plans to marry Marian Conover.
