* TheCavalry: After Dora helps him escape, Juan finds an American patrol. He then leads them as they charge over to the homestead to rescue Dora and her father. In the surviving copy, we see them reach the homestead, but we don't see them fight the Mexicans because that's the scene that's missing.

'''The Bravery of Dora''' is a 1912 short Western film.

The vivacious title character lives on a homestead with her elderly father. One day, they rescue a "halfbreed" named Juan, who falls in love with Dora. Meanwhile, some U.S. soldiers are being pursued by Mexican soldiers, presumably part of a border incident related to the then-ongoing [[UsefulNotes/TheMexicanRevolution Mexican Revolution]]. The U.S. soldiers take refuge at the homestead, and a shoot-out with the Mexicans ensues. However, the Mexicans prevail and capture the homestead. Juan is sentenced to die for treason, but the resourceful Dora has a plan to rescue him.
