What happens

Bucking Broadway is a 1917 American silent Western film directed by John Ford, probably his sixth feature film. Long thought to be lost, along with about 60 of Ford's 70 silent films, it was found in 2002 in the archives of the French National Center for Cinematography (CNC). It was subsequently restored and digitized and is available on the Criterion Blu-Ray of John Ford's Stagecoach. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
