What happens

The Man from Hell's River, also known as simply Hell's River, is a 1922 American silent Western film starring Irving Cummings, Eva Novak, and Wallace Beery. The screenplay was written by Cummings based upon the story "God of Her People" by James Oliver Curwood, and directed by Cummings. The picture was notably the first of many (including a subsequent television series) for canine character Rin Tin Tin, a German Shepherd who replaced a truculent wolf originally slated to appear. The Man from Hell's River was produced by Irving Cummings Productions. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
