The Sheriff's Baby (1913)
After the death of his wife the baby was all the sheriff had left, the promise of hope in the future, and the reflection of all that was dear in the past. But a sheriff has no time to tread a cradle rocker, so the baby started off on the long journey to relatives across the desert. Then the sheriff was called away to hunt the "bad men" of the desert, and found there a deserted prairie schooner, the occupants dead and his baby gone.

Reviews
It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
Blistering performances.
