The Bad Man from Riley's Gulch (1910) Online
This picture shows the typical bad man of the Western mining and cattle regions getting ready for his bullying of the community by imbibing courage from a bottle, or several bottles. Sallying forth to the supply store of the town, he is not long in getting into an argument and bluffing everyone from the proprietor to a formidable looking man. Filled with the spirit of bravado he next visits the hotel of the place, and we see him there engaged in a wordy dispute with some men who are playing cards. One of the occupants of the room annoys him by singing. The bad man pushes him around to the annoyance of the others in the room, who remonstrate against the disturbance. This starts a row.at the conclusion of which the proprietor's little wife, who has heard the rumpus, enters the room with her sewing materials and advances upon the foe. Snapping her shears in his face, she pours forth a volley of language which completely flabbergasts the astounded bully.
Released as a split reel along with the comedies His Just Deserts (1910) and The Surprise Party (1910).
