Trail to Yesterday, The by Charles Alden Seltzer (1875 - 1942)

A girl from the East finds herself confronted with a strange type of man with an ancient grudge. Dakota, the man, first convinces her that he is a brute beyond redemption and then gradually wins her back. Before this happens there has been an attempted bribe, an attempted murder that seems the response to the bribe and a wild ride through the night, that ends at Dakota's cabin.(Summary by Richard Kilmer)
