The Man from Brodney's

The Man from Brodney's is a 1923 American silent drama film directed by David Smith and starring J. Warren Kerrigan, Alice Calhoun, and Wanda Hawley.

[1][2] As described in a film magazine,[3] the law firm of Brodney and Company sends Hollingsworth Chase, an American, to the Island of Japat in the South Seas to represent the natives in a strange lawsuit.

The Island of Japat, which has jewel mines of great value, is to go the grandchildren of its owners, provided that they marry within six months of the filing of the will.

The infuriated natives make a mass attack on the mine operators and heirs, resulting in a terrific struggle.

Just when it becomes impossible for the small group of men to hold out any longer, a United States destroyer comes to their aid.
