Summary Twilight (1914)

Two rival railroad corporations determine to push their lines through the Canadian Northwest regardless of expense. Creel and Locke are the rivals in charge of the engineering work. Creel is in love with the daughter of the railroad president for whom he is working, but he is strongly moved by the beauty of the Canadian half-breed girl who came to the camp to sell scarfs and mittens. Locke, being an unprincipled man, detains Twilight in his camp against her consent. There is continual fighting between the men of the rival construction camp, and Locke vows to get Creel. Twilight waits for an opportunity to escape and makes her way to Creel's camp pursued by a gang of men with torches. Alicia Jordan and her father visit Creel's camp. When Alicia discovers Twilight in Creel's tent, she immediately concludes he has been unfaithful to her and she greets him coldly. The half-breed girl seeing how things are drifting, leaves Creel's camp and is recaptured by Locke's men. Twilight is just in time to overhear a plot to take Creel's life, and by risking her own life she saves him from a horrible death. Touched by the girl's loyalty and beauty, Creel forgets the call of civilization and takes the half-breed girl to himself to live in peace in the great North Woods.
