Her Friend, the Doctor

1912 · 10 min

A featherlight silent-era ranch romp, all dusty buckboards and fluttering hearts, gone almost as soon as it begins.

Directed by
Al Christie
Genres
Comedy, Western
Tagline
The "doctor" is a charming girl and she breaks many hearts on the ranch; a very right and exhilarating play.
Overview
Jane Carston was to return tomorrow from Ohio, where she had been for the past three years in school, and the ranch was all agog with expectancy and cleanliness. Bob Evans, head cowboy, was most eager and most anxious of the lot. Tomorrow finally became today and Pa had gone to the station in his best linen duster and the buckboard to meet Jane. Finally, in a cloud of dust. Bob discerns them on the brow of the hill. Arriving at the house Jane greets mother with a rousing smack.
