Desc: The Prairie Wife: Directed by Hugo Ballin. With Dorothy Devore, Herbert Rawlinson, Gibson Gowland, Leslie Stuart. During a trip to Europe, society girl Chaddie Green discovers that she is destitute. She returns to the United States and meets Duncan MacKail, who is equally broke, except for a parcel of grainland in the Western plains. After the two are married, Duncan hires Ollie, a Swedish caretaker, who Chaddie finds intimidating. While Duncan is away on business, Chaddie travels fifteen miles to visit Percy Woodhouse, an Englishman who has become ill. Her horse runs away, and she is forced to spend the night. Although she sleeps under a wagon, Duncan is nevertheless angry and jealous. Chaddie moves Percy into her home to nurse him back to health, hoping his presence will restrain the violent Ollie. Duncan leaves in a fit of jealousy, but he soon returns with a servant named Olga as a peace offering. She and Percy fall in love, while Ollie hangs himself, leaving a note confessing to his murderous instincts. Chaddie and Duncan become parents and find happiness in their prairie home.
