Kindred of the Dust (1922)

Discovering that her husband is a bigamist, Nan returns with her young child to her Puget Sound, Washington, logging town hoping to live with her father. Everyone treats her as an outcast until Donald McKaye, her childhood sweetheart and the son of a millionaire, returns from college. Donald's parents and sisters thwart their romance, believing that the mother of a bastard child is beneath him, but when Donald becomes gravely ill, his mother calls on Nan to nurse him back to health. Donald's marriage to Nan drives his father to disinherit him, and the old man fails to relent even after Donald saves his life in a river accident. Finally, the arrival of a son prompts a family reconciliation.
