The Passionate Pilgrim (1921)

"The Tale of a Man Who Came Out of a Past and Fought for a Cause He Held More Dear than Life"

An innocent man goes to prison for obstruction of justice when his wife refuses to reveal that her father was killed by her mother (and it wasn't suicide). When he is finally released, he meets and becomes involved with a young woman who belongs to the town's influential elite. Once again, he finds himself caught up in intrigue - which eventually leads to his exposing the mayor of the town as corrupt.
