I think it was called The Heirloom and starred Sybil Thorndike and Judy Campbell - they were sisters, and Judy Campbell played the somewhat mentally unstable sister. The Douglas Fairbanks shows were re-edited and shown on TV again in the late 1960s. I have checked, and Granada certainly showed them either shortly before or just after the children's television programmes in 1969; I think these episodes were called either 'Short Story' or 'Matinee'. I hope this helps.
