The Gun Woman

A saloon owner loans her lover the money to buy a house, which he has led her to believe they will live in after they're married. Instead, he takes the money and buys a saloon in another town. The Tigress was the owner of Hell's Kitchen, the toughest dance hall in La Mesa. Sho was quick at repartee and quicker with her gun, and the camp respected her aim if it did not admire her aims. Then the Tigress fell in love and staked the Gent to the bankroll to go out and make a decent home for her in a decent land. When she found that he had used her money to run a gambling hall in a new mining camp and never intended marriage, she did not shoot him, but gave him thirty days in which to make good, and then she went and collected, in full. —Moving Picture World synopsis
