Watch Online / The Green God (1918)
Desc: The Green God: Directed by Paul Scardon. With Harry T. Morey, Betty Blythe, Arthur Donaldson, George Majeroni. Major Temple vainly tries to purchase of the priests the Green God he sees on a visit to China. He commissions Robert Ashton to get it for him, promising him the hand of his daughter in marriage. Ashton steals the idol, and brings it to the Morgan home, demanding a cash bonus as well as the girl. Temple refuses, and vows that Ashton shall not leave the house alive unless he delivers the god. Muriel goes to his room that night to plead with him for release from the promise, but he is obdurate. In the morning he is found dead. Doors are locked, and the only clue is Muriel's handkerchief, which she dropped. She is suspected, as is Temple, but she is saved by Morton after stirring scenes in a Chinese temple to which he has been lured.
